My save file in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Spider-Man 2 is at 100 percent. I have Gold on every Mysterium. I have the Platinum. I have over a hundred snaps in photo mode, exploring the story, city, and characters in equal measure. I have multiple save files to replay my favourite missions over. I have unlocked every suit, gadget, skill, and stopped each variant of crime multiple times. I have over 50 hours logged. By every metric of the game, I have completed it. And still one thing eludes me - Peter Parker's Rubik's Cube.
This is not a thing you can simply find in the game. It's not a collectible, or a secret hidden Easter Egg like Miles finding Phin's science fair award. It's a trick of the light, an illusion, a deception, a con, an arcane mockery painting pictures in my head. Except it is real. And I must have it. I have not truly completed 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Spider-Man 2 until I have that damn Rubik's Cube.
🐻Spider-Man 2 Review - They Were Bitten By Radioactive Spiders, And I Think You Kn꧋ow The Rest
Spider- Man 2 is a sequel that plays it safe and𒊎 takes risks in equal measure, giving Peter and Miles powerful independent journeys that intertwine
The first time I saw the Rubik's Cube, I convinced myself I never saw it at all. Like the footsteps in the room above me, the gas lamps glowing brighter and dimmer, this was all in my mind. I tried to retrace my steps and bring it back, but I could not. How could I, when it was all a dream? Merely something I had convinced myself existed, with no grounding in reality. But then it happened again. The gas lamps were flickering. I had always been right. There really was a Rubik's Cube.
While Peter is swinging through the streets of New York, he will occasionally get a Rubik's Cube out to play with while in mid-air. And when I say occasionally, boy howdy do I mean it. In those 50 hours I mentioned, I saw it twice. I'm unsure how it triggers. Miles had a similar quirk in Spider-Man: Miles Morales, where he would whip his phone out to check his messages, but this was far easier to set up. It only happened when he jumped off an especially tall building while facing the camera. It wasn't guaranteed, and could be fiddly to do, but there was a method. With the Rubik's Cube, there is only madness.
Update: Finally figured itꦛ out. Dive with Peter Parker off a tall buildin𒅌g, then pushing L3, holding it downwards, and holding Square.
This is not an animation that happens at the start of your swing. The two times I discovered it were both in the middle of elongated swings through the city, while doing various tricks. However, I don't think there is a specific trick animation for it. I tried every combination I could think of, and came up with nothing but backflips and indy grabs. Of course, seeing it twice might be twice more than some others get. The problem is these appearances are so fleeting that by the time you see it, it's gone. I told you I had 100 snaps from the game, but Peter had put the Rubik’s Cube away and begun his next swing animation by the time I’d switched to photo mode.
Across my time in the game I played more as Miles in the open world, and found no equivalent to the Rubik's Cube, but since the story railroads you into playing as Peter more, I think it would be fair to guess they had equal screen time. 25 hours of being Peter Parker, and just two flashes of the Rubik's Cube to my name. You need to be quick to catch a snap of Spidey with his guard down, and evidently I'm just not quite quick enough.
Spider-Man games are always teeming with discoveries, and this is a very fun one to hide away. It's a bit more natural than recreating the Spidey pointing meme, and shines best under Insomniac's always best-in-show photo mode. I mean, presumably. It's the smallest details, the little notes of affection for the character we see in these games that makes them so special beyond the flashy tech and open world formula. Now, bring me pictures of Spider-Man! Just make sure he has a Rubik's Cube.
