Basement Arcade: Pause Menu

BEN MAGNET IS MISSING. Brandon and Sparkz have taken the reigns of Pause Menu for this special review/discussion episode of the Spider-Man: Miles Morales Playstation game. Long gestating thoughts are brought to the surface as the two refer back on notes and feelings created by the worthy follow-up to the Spider-Man game that swung into our hearts just a few years ago. They uncover as much as they can to give proper attention to a favorite game. Enjoy the discussion revisiting Miles solo outing!
