SaysWho? Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 http://www.pushsquare.com/news/2018/09/one_of_spider-man_ps4s_most_heartfelt_easter_eggs_has_turned_sour Quote Back in May, Twitter user @topnotch1210, real name Tyler Schultz, tweeted out to Insomniac Games in the hopes that the studio would include a small easter egg for him inside Marvel's Spider-Man that would allow him to propose to his girlfriend. After some back and forth, it was agreed that the words "Madison, will you marry me?" would appear on the advertising board of a cinema, and if you do a bit of exploring in the game's re-creation of New York City, you'll find that the idea made it into the final game. Here is his request and where it appears: Here's where it went bad: CLIFF NOTES FROM THE ARTICLE: Quote Unfortunately however, it doesn't look like things have gone to plan. Explained in the video below, it appears that the Madison in question left Tyler for his brother three to four weeks before the game's release. Whoa. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The def star Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 This is some stupid shit. Anyone wanting to propose to someone why are you banking on doing it in a game. And Insomniac is dumb also for doing it even though their heart was in the right place. It's just dumb. Dumb all around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His brother really did slide in after that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALIEN-gunner Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Along with this stupid in-game marriage proposal, the stupid reason Peter Parker will never stay married is because Joe Quesada thinks he's Spider-Man and insists the character must suffer relationship woes just as he has for all eternity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His brother really did slide in after that. I read that and laughed so hard. His idea was to put a marriage proposal in a video game and the girl hated video games. That was a great plan! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know that Marvel has been putting out "Spiderman: renew your Vows" for the last several years right? It's an ongoing comic where Spiderman and Mary Jane's marriage was never retconned and they have a teenaged daughter who has his powers. I don't read it but people seem to like it.

In a post-GamerGate world (assuming that we ARE post), taking any supposedly heartbroken male gamer at his word over something like this is rather naïve. That's some high quality writing!
