In PlayStation’s Spider-Man you can do whatever a spider can. The best-selling game is full of great action, has a blockbuster movie feel and loads of side missions which will keep you busy for months and months.
It is certainly in line for Game of the Year honours.
Hidden deep within the game though are a host of Easter eggs which are recognizable to die-hard comic book fans. Here is a handy list of things to look out for and some hints.
Avengers Tower
The headquarters of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes cannot be missed. It is one of the tallest buildings in Upper East Side near Central Park.
The Wakandan embassy
Wakanda is the African homeland of Marvel’s Black Panther. Its New York embassy is located in the Midtown area, on 3rd Avenue, the building with the red and green flag on it.
Lockjaw
The canine member of the Inhumans is honoured as a statue taking the place of the Charging Bull on Wall Street.
Rand Enterprises
If the Rand building looks familiar to you, it should. It houses the company owned by Daniel Rand, otherwise known as Iron Fist.
Alias Investigations
In Hell’s Kitchen you can stumble across a detective agency named Alias Investigations. That is the office of Jessica Jones.
Nelson & Murdock
Also in Hell’s Kitchen you will find Daredevil’s law office which is right around the corner from Josie’s Bar and Fogwell’s Gym, all part of the Daredevil universe.
Roxxon Corporation
The oil business is a front for a world-wide criminal enterprise.
Damage Control
