That looks really incredible.No pop ins, it looks like we are finally at the Unreal Engine demo which was shown at the beginning of the PS5.Amazing draw distance no load ins no pop ins.It would be great to have an racing glider game with this graphics where the road hovers above the city something like f zero

I just bought the $70 US digital version on PSN (because I have a US account). But because I live in Japan this was over 10,000 yen!!
I could have bought the physical disc version for 7345 yen on Amazon. Which is only $50 USD!
The jpy/usd exchange rate right now is bonkers.
But anyway, congrats Insomniac on your 90+ game. I want to celebrate this with you at launch!

Sure, I guess I'm just not a fan of Miles (or anyone else being Spider-Man except for Peter)

They deserve it to stay 90 and above to be honest. You can see the quality from the trailer

Take it with Metacritic lol. In any case, most of the reviews are already factored in the MC score so there's a slim chance that the score will go down. Possible yet I'm 99% sure it won't go below 90.

Yeah we haven't heard any stories of excessive crunch from them either.

Fair enough could a 5 from edge etc make a dent. I still get angry that metacritic weights certain outlets. Just straight up biased no other way to put it.
What does that have to do with the fact that the guy I quoted said he would consider Spider-Man 2 a failure if it scored less than 92 just a couple of days ago?

Absolutely. But even with the saturation of super hero movies, zombies is still way more annoying of a trope to me.
I will consume more spiderman content because web slinging is super fun at the end of the day, and insomniac nailed it. But I sure as heck want Insomniac making new content and am disappointed they got saddled with Wolverine.

Theoretically, sure.
Practically, unlikely to go down below 91, or especially, 90. That's because most of the reviews have already come in, and there are 0 review scores below 80.

It would take a lot of click bait low ball reviews at this point. Hopefully that doesn't happen.

Yes but going under 90 would make that dude cry even more, and i really don't like his face and vibe.
It would be unfair to the others people who worked on the game, but you can't make an omelette without breaking eggs.

The difference here is that if you don't use fast travel, you can still have fun with the traversal around the city to reach any place.
In stuffield it's either fast travel or bust.

Most studios run themselves, I imagine MS put incredible pressure on their devs amd meddle constantly to feed the failing gamepass experiment.
Set the target and let your people go create, correct them if what they bring is shit, send in the ninjas if its good but flawed.

Who dafuq decided that mario is better than stuff like ac6 or lies of p or rem2 or the many great games we had this year? Just because it's fucking mario?GOTY noms.

I don't think it could drop now with how many reviews its had??
Even with an Edge 8 out of 10 i think it should hold?

What's impressive is that it's one random location not even showing reflections on windows or water. The graphics are very consistent considering you can fly at near superman speeds to visit another highly detailed location. That's litteraly fast I/O improving the graphics by improving the density of assets and effects in all scenes.

I guess it's just the expected quality from Nintendo on a mainline mario...and from the previews?
But I agree, Lies of P should be there, AC6, Cocoon and all the other bangers!

To me it's just stupid to have a fixed number of candidates for something silly and not serious like game awards.

honestly these guys have carried this generation for Sony... they have released like 3 proper next gen titles while majority of the studios havent even done one
having ray tracing that actually looks good and still 60fps and high enough resolution is a incredible achievement, what special sauce does their engine have

Eh, no one studio has carried them. God of War was a banger, Forbidden West was a banger, the launch was stellar, etc. The system has done well for itself, despite some of their main players having yet to release a current gen game.

GerAlt-Right. Ciriously.
I expect players of the majority of players of the game will reflect an 8/10. A game that is solid and accomplishes what it needs to, but doesn't break any new ground. Those games are fine and honestly I'd be OK if Insomniac delivers this.
Similar to how Starfield players rank the game now as a 7/10. A game that is worth playing and does many things well, but has too many flaws to justify being higher.
That's my expectation.

Agreed. Ragnarok and Forbidden West were outstanding games that anyone who owns a PS5 should play. Neither of those studios have been the work horse of Insomniac, but Naughty Dog is the only one who has underwhelmed for PS5 and realistically, their last game was only 3.5 years ago. They should be ready to reveal their next game any day now. Unfortunately, I can't say I am all THAT excited considering how much I disliked the narrative of TLoU2.

I can tell you that watching some of the captured footage in the digital Foundry vid in 4K especially when they talked about and showed the ray tracing was jaw dropping. You are in for a treat. I couldn't believe the look of some of the scenes, its drastically improved.

I was about to call Ziff Davis to have the score lowered, but you are right let Nature take her course.
I don't want to see any dev imply he's crying because some critics liked their game ever again though.
I justed about this....Meta Critic might don't really care. They posted that tweet for a reason.

lol. Game looks absolutely fabulous, except for the faraway clouds with sandman. But 1 minor nitpick compared to all the other perfection on display? If this doesn’t impress you than no game will.
Open world, raytracing with reflections of reflections. 60fps or 40fps quality with vr options, huge draw distance, busy worlds, cohesive lighting, no loading… etc etc etc etc.

They need to find something to do for mj so she can brag about being useful and how she doesn't need peter while she get saved for the 4th time in the game.

If they want a woman, a real strong woman, they could instead put a stealth Black Cat gameplay. Not this shit.

If you know how math works, even a 40 point review wouldn't make it drop to 90.
