Greetings, Arsians! Courtesy of our friends at TechBargains, we have another round of deals to share. Today's list is headlined by a deal on Marvel's Spider-Man, the open-world superhero game that arrived on the PlayStation 4 in September.

Further ReadingSpider-Man PS4 review: Does whatever a spider can—and then someCoincidentally, the Dealmaster is in the middle of his Spider-Man play-through right now—and nope, he's not mad at himself for paying $60 for it. Not at all. Anywho, for the unfamiliar, here's the skinny: if you ever liked the Batman: Arkham games but thought, "man, I wish this was Spider-Man instead," this is the game for you. It's a lot like a Marvel film in that way: it won't challenge your intellect or stir your emotions like, say, The Last of Us or a Metal … [Read more...] about Dealmaster: Take $20 off the new Spider-Man game for PS4

Moment originally launched with a Kickstarter campaign back in 2014, featuring a pair of lenses and a stick-on mounting plate. But these days, Moment cases and lenses have become some of the top accessories for those aiming to get a stylish look on their phones and more control over their photos. Today, Moment is launching a newly updated 58mm Tele lens designed to work with the latest smartphones, including those with dual-camera configurations. Left: Previous 60mm Tele lens. Right: New 58mm Tele lens. The new 58mm Tele lens is a ground-up redesign of the previous 60mm Tele. It's larger to accommodate modern smartphones which often have wider lenses built-in.

Tops is the eponymous flagship app, known as “Big Blue,” followed by three apps all focused on messaging: Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger.

Instead the key shaper of the new Messenger’s look is Christian Dalonzo, a 23-year-old who was still an undergraduate at Rowan College in New Jersey when he crafted the “bubbly” vibe of what was known internally as M4, announced today after a long gestation. He blueprinted the screen experience of a billion-plus people while living in the basement of his parent’s South Jersey home. Dalonzo had twice spent summers interning at … [Read more...] about How Facebook’s Messenger Got Its New Look in a New Jersey Basement
