No longer canonical
Mister Negative is already a villain for this game. At least it looks like he's in it from the trailer that shows his henchmen.

Sony said that the Uncharted 4 E3 2014 trailer was realtime and it wasn't.
I am going to trust Insomniac.
I just hope it isn't downgraded from this.

Oh yeah
Chameleon was mentioned above, and I think it's a good choice. I'd add Kraven (and family) to the mix: Last Hunt, The Gauntlet and Grim Hunt were intense.
Chance, Life Foundation, Jonas Harrow, the Smythes (they used the spider-slayers in the first TASM game though, right?), Jackal. I'd also like to see a villain reformed through the interactions with Spider-Man: Cardiac, Prowler maybe?

I think that's feasible, honestly. I know Insomniac isn't Sucker Punch, but Second Son looked really good and had great lighting to boot, so I think it shows the PS4 can handle similar environments. Also, even though Ratchet and Clank didn't span across an entire city, insomniac got that game looming pretty damn incredible. I think having only one console to develop should help the team achieve the graphical fidelity you see here. Well just have to wait and find out.
Games get better and worse as they near release as games never really come together fully until the very end. That probably is the game but always do so knowing full well that it will change.

I don't get the incredulous reactions. There's nothing in that trailer that's unachievable on PS4, and street density/interior detail aside, the game evokes Second Son's graphics a ton. Those particle effects, motion blur, PBR, etc. look similarly impressive to a game from 2014.
We're just so accustomed to trailers that try so hard to be "cinematic" but utterly and embarrassingly fail that a nicely composited and storyboarded trailer with actual cinematic flair ends up looking like CG

It was a bad idea for Sony to reach out to Insomniac instead of their own 1st party studio. If this becomes a huge success and they decide to make a sequel, what's stopping Marvel to cut the middleman out (Sony) and just go straight to Insomniac to make the sequel multiplatform since Sony doesn't own the IP?

Sony taking Spider-Man back and disrupting their entire MCU plans? Who knows what kind of contract they worked out with that whole thing.

Doubters, have you not seen R&C?

Maybe that was part of the deal? I mean, nothing's stopping Marvel from going multi regardless. And we don't even known if they intend on Insomniac making Spidey games forever (or if Insomniac even wants to).

Maybe all internal studio are super busy and no time to do it then? Or maybe IG is just the perfect fit.
Or they just buy Insomniac.
There are things like contracs where stuff like this is ruled out.

Something called a contract and considering Sony does own the rights to Spider-Man movies I'm sure that kind of an attempt at betrayal would be great for future business dealings. Sony and Disney are pretty tight if you haven't noticed so this would never happen. I think it is more likely that Sony would right of refusal on any future Marvel games.

Doubting Insomniac after Sunset and Ratchet?
Come on man, we gonna pretend those games don't exist all of a sudden?

I watched this trailer on repeat just to see Spidey flip over the guy and webslam him into the ground, looked fuckin gnarly like he busted his shit in.

I think stuff like that is independent from one another. Sony sold to Disney the TV rights to Spidey waaaaay before the MCU deal, thus cancelling the best Spider-Man adaptation anyone has ever seen
But as the other guy was told, they probably got legal protection if such case ever happens.

Ratchet and Clank is one of my favorite games of the year so far so I trust Insomniac to deliver. I just hope we get to play Spider-Man first half of next year at least. Don't think I could handle having to wait over a year. It was my personal game of E3.

Except we don't know the terms of the contract between Sony & Marvel (I'd imagine typically these things get inked for a trilogy, or at least to allow Sony first refusal on publishing a sequel or two) and Marvel/Disney no longer have a publishing division. And, if they've moved to a 100% licensing model for Star Wars, might we not assume it's the same deal with Marvel? They'll still have producers from Marvel involved, but likely that all the funding and promotion comes from the publisher side.

Insanely hyped for this, but I *kinda* doubt it will actually look that good. Its one of those 'too good to be true' cases.
So happy to see Insomniac announce a new game after finishing Ratchet. That game was amazing. Now I need Song of the Deep to hold me over.

Probably been addressed, but why is Spiderman accelerating in mid-air?
Because he's firing webs at each side of the window in order to thrust himself through? Look at how he angles his wrists after leaping from the column.

At the end? Pulling down on the web he shoots out, I'd imagine.

Ah okay. I did not see that initially.

I imagine it's the same engine as Sunset Overdrive, which I'd always assumed was in-house. Presumably the same they've been using since the PS2 days...?

this is how Infamous Second Son looks on actual PS4 with DOF effect applied (and yes, I know – different dev, different engine, but still):
So I'm pretty much sure Insomniac can surpass ^ this in Spider-Man.

Sunset Overdrive is fantastic. First Xbox One exclusive I played and I still think it's the best I've experienced despite being a Halo fan and actually enjoying both campaign and mp in H5
Haven't played Ori yet
