Spider-Man PS4: 10 Most INFURIATINGLY Difficult Moments

2. Howard's Pigeons

Once players complete the mission 'Couch Surfing', they will meet a man called Howard, a local man with a caged pigeon that he had named 'Pidgie'. According to Howard, Pidgie was suffering from a bit of loneliness and players are asked to track down some of his friends located around the city.

There are twelve pigeons in total across the city, however this tricky side mission doesn't really offer much in the way of incentive for players to go through the grind of it all. A thank you from Howard and Pidgie and a bronze trophy are the only things up for grabs here which, given how finiky of a task scooping up these pigeons can be, is a bit infuriating for players who might have had higher hopes.

These pigeons are small, quick and take sudden and sharp turns that can make swinging consistently in their direction a real tough task in some instances. A small indicator to press the L1 and R1 buttons appear when a player gets close enough, however this can also prove to be a problem as dropping momentum when following the pigeon will take away the lock on Spidey's target.

All in all, these troublesome pigeons are definitely not worth the hassle of spending far too long swinging wildly around the city.
