just because sony is publishing it doesn't mean it is a full exclusive. if it were a bloodborne scenario, that would mean that sony also owns this specific IP, do they?Full exclusive. Sony is publishing it. So basically a Bloodborne scenario but with an established character and IP.
yeah, that is what i'm wondering and that would also makes sense about the Ps4 exclusivity if it is the caseThis is a Sony exclusive, but nothing tells us that the sequel might not be multiplat. But it's highly unlikely, as this seems to be tied to the deal with the MCU about spidey.

dunno what the answer to that is man :\ I was just saying this can't be a bloodborne case unless they own the IP. sounds more similar to a sunset overdrive scenario although it's not even the equal to that either.They don't own the IP but they are publishing it. I mean just think about how many Sony published games are on Steam and that should give you the answer you want.
This pretty much says it all does it not?just because sony is publishing it doesn't mean it is a full exclusive. if it were a bloodborne scenario, that would mean that sony also owns this specific IP, do they?

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2016...usive-spider-man-game-revealed-first-trailer/When I first learned Insomniac was approached by our long-time friends and collaborators at Sony Interactive Entertainment with the opportunity to create a blockbuster Spider-Man console game experience, I practically ran into Teds office professing my passion for Spider-Man along with a desire to serve as creative director.
Knowing that the game was said to not be tied to the movie, I still think it would make a heck of a lot of sense to aim for 1 of the 2 big release windows of 2017:Have Insomiac given any indication of when we will see this release? It had to be pretty far into development, Sunset Overdrive was a year ago now and a large chunk must be working on this game since. It really does look lovely though, Insomniac are a better fit for this game than Sucker Punch me thinks, also allows SP to work on a new IP which is very exciting.
nice blog post, read the whole thing so exclusivity does seem like a lock & it's a granted passion project...but it doesn't clarify if it is a part of the deal from last year; it's not like they would confirm that publicly anyway. it's not really relevant to the mass public.This pretty much says it all does it not?

Considering that interview mentioned everything about his costume is there for a reason I'm now extremely curious why that white spider is there.
Maybe the symbiote saga happened in this universe too and he ended up killing someone. Now he keeps the white spider as a reminder.
Theories?
I only saw like 1 post in this thread complaining about the exclusivity, but as for the rest of your post: even if it is not relevant, it would be fun fact to know if this was part of a supplement on the deal. what sony wants more than ever for sony pictures is for spiderman to succeed. an exclusive spiderman game for ps4 would help hype that for them too - given the success of Ps4.No one knows whether it is part of the Sony Pictures deal. I don't see why Sony Pictures would bargain a Spidey game though (Sony Pictures != SIE) but who knows.
It's like you said: not really relevant to the mass public. I couldn't care less whether it only happened due to the MCU deal, all that matters is that we finally get a proper Spidey game after all.
I take a PS4 exclusive Spidey game that rocks over 20 Activision multiplat cash-ins any day.
One thing worth considering is the rumor that this has been in development for around 2 years (apparently a few LinkedIn hints here and there) which puts it at roughly june 2014, that is technically before the MCU deal came to be (we don't know how long that took though so there's that).
Can't believe this topic turned into a "fuck Sony is killing gaming with exclusive spidey ps4"... I'm the exact opposite: thank you, SIE, for approaching Marvel and initiating this project. If it weren't for them Marvel/Disney would probably still be looking for a viable fit + multiplat with most likely less budget and less dev time.
Could be biased too due to owning a PS4 since day 1.
The marvel guy saying there's a reason for the spider being white makes me think it glows in the dark lol.
Like I said, he's no Josh Keaton, but it beats having Drake Bell voice Spidey.I've heard some commenters on youtube say that his voice is being played by Yuri Lowenthal.
I agree that he sounds good.

Any chance the skyscraper on the left is the Oscorp tower? In Amazing Spider-Man 2 it was presented as the tallest bulding in the area.

I think it's already known, but Spider-man uses mechanical web shooters.
Check his hand.
Yay, another franchise game. If it's not Batman, it's Spiderman. I grew up loving both of these characters but gosh, I'm pretty sick of seeing them.
I know neither of these two is going away anytime soon but considering how large the Marvel stable is, it sure would be nice if they focused on something else. At least pick a different Spider-man! Isn't there an alternate universe version where he's black? How about Spiderman 2099? Heck, how about Spider-Girl?
No, that's One World Trade and its a real building
They'd put those fake buildings in Midtown where they usually are in fictional works

I'm Team Mechanical, but I was worried that the popularity of the Sam Raimi films would push Insomniac towards organic webbing so they won't have to worry about mentioning the web shooters. Said web shooters are a testament to Peter's intellect, & they can open the door to other types of web fluid (Ex: cold web fluid where Peter can freeze certain enemies).This being overseen by Marvel pretty much guaranteed that.
Personally don't understand why so many people think organic web shooters will ever come back when the movie that popularized it was over a decade ago and it really hasn't been seen since.
Pretty dick move for a supervillain to take over Freedom Tower

That's when they flip the sign that says "PS4" to "NEO EXCLUSIVE"
But Sony already put a mandate that there can't be any PS4K/PS4 Neo exclusives.That's when they flip the sign that says "PS4" to "NEO EXCLUSIVE"

Looks like Oscorp Tower.Any chance the skyscraper on the left is the Oscorp tower? In Amazing Spider-Man 2 it was presented as the tallest bulding in the area.
I think the vocabulary is becoming pretty defined in third-person this games these days. Especially where you have a overpowered character like Spiderman. I think Insomniac can refer to Arkham and TLOU/UC4.
Also, I'm sure there will be plenty of inventive shooter mechanics using web in all it's potential shapes and forms. That's where Insomniacs legendary weapon-mechanics will come in.
This guy gets it.Just came in to say, screw organic web-shooters. Mechanical is king.
I could see the likes of Iron Man or Daredevil making cameos.Must say, as a XB1 owner. This and the Kojima game have certainly got my interest. I like Spiderman and wonder if we'll see any Marvel cameos from the MCU. Looking forward to see how this develops.
Just watched the interview with the game director and that marvel guy.
I liked the part where they were sharing how and when they became Spider-Man fans. I'm just like them. We all connected with the character when we were kids. I hope they remember that.
I was so displeased when me and my 7 yr old nephew were watching Civil War, and Spidey said holy**** during one scene! That wasn't the Spider-Man I loved as a kid, and with my nephew sitting next to me, it felt like Spidey had left me and this is the new character for the new kidz. I accepted it and was ready to move on, but now with this game, I want to hope and dream again. I've wanted a great Spider-Man game for such a long time.
Guess this game will cement how I feel about Spider-Man in this modern age after it comes out. It appears I still love the web-head and want to go on more Spidey adventures. Looking forward to the game, Insomniac!
interesting. although those bleach game may have just been psp exclusives for a different reason (not involving a deal).I can't think of any other licensed exclusive at the moment but it's like the Bleach Heat the Soul games.

I get the feeling that the city isn't complete yet. For some reason the buildings don't seem tall enough, or like something in the city is missing.
Spidey has never met an enemy as evil or subversive as the Port Authority.Didn't know aboout the building. Thanks for the correction.

To think we might be able to do something better than this in-game :')
