I'm confused. You know that the deals didn't fall through, and that Spider-man is in the MCU, right?

what? that doesn't make sense. they can easily write some random game plot for the mcu characters. not everything has to be canon. canon is overrated.
really though it's only fair that they put their best foot forward for spiderman though. marvel's batman in terms of just overall popularity. gotta have your flagship game franchise and lets hope this spiderman game is up to par.

Does Marvel team work on story or Insomniac team?
Fucking incredible
So hyped for the potential of this game. Game of E3 for me, ahead South Park 2 and Capcom having the balls to do something than RE6 on steroids for RE7 (hating the negativity for RE7 currently on GAF - give it a chance)

Yeah but you have to imagine there are alot more constraints when it comes to tv series trying to feature a fully CGI character like Iron Man or Hulk than a game does.
Yeah sorry. The word escapes me.
Spiderman is literally the most valuable comic book IP out there.

I'm withholding any and all hype until they confirm that webbing has to have a surface to stick to.
Sounds like they have multiple Marvel games in development (or at least plan to develop). Can't remember the last time I've been excited for a Marvel game but with Insomniac developing (and their development seemingly not being abused like in Fuse) this should be awesome. Initially thought Sucker Punch would be a better fit but as they say when it comes to light-hearted humour in games Insomniac are among the top developers out there, which is important in a Spidey game

that's so old now (2013 data) that i bet the charts have changed quite a bit, prolly much more growth for avengers. still i bet it's still a sizable gap between spiderman and then batman and then the rest.
It's not just that. It's more about, like... who would be the villain(s)? Green Goblin? Doc Ock? Venom? If they used any of these characters, it would mean they couldn't use them in future movies, or at least it would make it really hard to do so. Even lesser Spidey villains like, I dunno, Vulture or Scorpion, they might want to keep those in their back pocket just in case.
Whereas by setting it in its own universe, they have free access to all of these characters.
spidermans always been valuable money making machine, if you can find newer data ill look though because i havent found any.

This game will live or die based in its web physics , have they mentioned if they are doing the webs attach to buildings and all the cool Spider-Man 2 stuff you could do , or are we going to get activision shitty web in the clouds solution .
Spiderman 2+Insomniac Magic
And you have, a genuine, relentless, GOTY.
I entirely mean that.

I microwave steaks.
I could never get into a spiderman game after spiderman 2, I hope insomniac nails the web slinging down. I have faith after how well subset overdrive handles.
Web of Shadows was the last great web slinging game. This looks similar to the webslinging from the Amazing games but I hope I'm wrong and they nail it.

Lawd, I need this in my life.
Insomniac, I'll play test the game for free. I just want to know what it's like to seeing around New York.

Sony let them have Spiderman in the MCU
Access to the ICE team, great relations, hardware Insomniac is comfortable with, mutual respect built up over a long-lasting partnership. It's not that hard to imagine, right ?

Holy crow I missed this wooo Insomniac and Spidey is a dream combo!
Sony has no say in the Spidey video games rights, no?
I dunno if that's worth cutting the Xbox/PC market for that though. Also, ICE team access? Insomniac ain't first party and probably are using their own engine. They don't need ND.
My guess as well is that this was part of the deal.
True but when you have a say on movies and Marvel wants Spiderman that gives you leverage.
Quality, i hope.
This game was likely part of the deal, especially since they said this has been worked on for quite a while. So it's not out of the question at all.

Because it was the only one that did web swinging that way. I'm not sure if every open world game since SM2 did moonswinging, but the majority of them do. For example the Beenox movie tie ins don't have the webs attaching to the buildings.

Why are you insulting Insomniac like that man? Not cool.
I'm expecting this to be Arkham level of good. It has potential to be. After seeing what Insomniac did with the Sunset Overdrive i think they are the perfect fit for a Spider-Man game. Sony has another monster in their hands. I never wanted to just get my hands on a video game so bad until now.
I really don't like the suit. It's weird that Sucker Punch is not doing it, I thought it was their destiny to make a Spider-Man game after infamous.
It seems the game is based on brand new day with all the Mr Negative's inner demons roaming the city. I can only hope they adapt the Gauntlet storyline at some point. Anyway I can't wait for this!
