If the swinging mechanics in Insomniac's follow-up even remotely resemble those included in Spider-Man PS4 and Miles Morales, then Slingshot isn't technically necessary. He soars across the sky, flying over buildings like Superman but unable to control where the air takes him. As one could imagine, the result is almost comical. The Redditor shared a clip of the move in action, which sees Spider-Man grapple onto two side-by-side chimneys atop a roof, then pull back and sling himself up and out into the air. Those looking forward to Marvel's Spider-Man 2 are in agreement with Reddit user slick-nickp, who thinks the sequel should come packed with the web launch feature from Activision's Spider-Man 3.

Marvel's Spider-Man from Insomniac arguably boasted the most satisfying experience, as web-swinging, combat, and rudimentary stealth options combined to make players feel as though they'd truly stepped into the role of Peter Parker. Several other web-slinging adventures followed, of course, all iterating on classic Spider-Man gameplay mechanics in their own special way. Interestingly, the title was supposed to receive a sequel in the form of a Spider-Man 4 tie-in, which never released because the film itself failed to see the light of day. Activision published the Spider-Man 3 movie tie-in from developers Treyarch and Vicarious Visions to largely mixed reviews, though the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions fared far better than their counterparts on PS2 and Wii. 2007's Spider-Man 3 game featured a web launch, Slingshot feature that fans hope Insomniac Games will revive in Marvel's Spider-Man 2.
