I do not miss the era of Activision's control over the Spider-Man license. However, I do miss when Spider-Man games with distinctly comic-booky narrative texture and uniquely sorta-busted game design were something to look forward to. If Insomniac's games offer the taste of an upscale restaurant close to your new place in the city, games like Edge of Time deliver the sweet taste of your hometown Mexican joint; the one that drenches every entree in too much sauce but whose queso dip still demands a place in your memory.
