The mysteries of the island are everywhere... even in your favorite games

Pretty terrible Spider-Man game, but pretty terrific Lost reference. The second mission is set on Tangaroa Island, which according to Spider-Man's computer briefing, is "largely unexplored," was "once believed mythical," and is "located at latitude 4.815 and longitude 162.342."

All that and the level hasn't even started!
