OH DAMN, just seen replies to my last message. That's the gameplay!?

Need this now and would be awesome if it was the kick off to a connected game-universe arm of the Marvel movies.

This better be in it.

Here's a quick edit of my black suit version I made, looks kinda of crazy inverted like this.

 
From reddit

Awesome. If they're going the Symbiote + Black Suit Spidey, I hope they build up to that and leave it for a sequel. EDIT - unless Spidey has a black suit independent of the symbiote? I'm not a big follower of the comics so I don't know much about it. Most of my knowledge of the character is from the games + films.

So are they gonna use rich peter parker? I wonder of there will be a cross over with other marvel heroes.

I imagine if this is successful it'll open the floodgates for other Marvel superhero games. I'd really like to see Black Panther, Captain America and Iron Man.

I still can't believe Sony has this as exclusive. I mean it has to be timed, right?

I rail on XBONE but man... If this is really as good as SM2 from the PS2/GCN era, everyone needs to play this. Still one of the best superhero (and movie) games of all time.

Sony are publishing it (and thus probably funding it) and I don't think their published games ever go to rival consoles? I certainly can't think of such an instance.

Best reaction from a dev ever lol

Ha ha; that's great!

Might not have gotten made with how skittish Disney and Marvel are to really invest in big AAA games. They just killed Disney Infinity not that long ago and I thought that was doing great but I guess that bubble may be about to burst like the Rock Band/Guitar Hero one did years ago.

Yeah; I don't think this would have happened without Sony's involvement. I guess somehow this is linked to the deal with the Spider-Man films, as otherwise Sony doesn't have any link to Spidey or superhero games.

well.. look at it that way: I'd rather take one definitive/good exclusive Spidey game over loads of mediocre multi-plat titles that make you feel empty inside after 5 minutes of playtime.

Look at what happens when you task someone like Activision to publish Spidey games for you. Disney already confirmed they will not make games themselves but instead let others do the games for them with their input. We can be glad that it's SIE who picked a Spidey exclusive game up and not someone like Activision (or EA, I'm fairly certain EA would also run this into the ground big time).

If this is good and does well you can bet your ass on the fact that more publishers open up their wallets + give devs more freedom in exchange for top tier Marvel games. But yet again we had the Arkham games making bank the last few years and no other hero games lived up to that quality.


PSX is so far away, someone hold me.

//EDIT: you guys saw the webs? After all these years we finally made the jump to proper next-gen webs (and not the bold 2D pixel stuff we got in every other game)?
I'm glad at least someone is making an attempt at an awesome Spidey game. Those cell shaded Spidey games were alright, but nothing special and they all felt the same lol.

I know what they should do - just give us a costume color editor and sell us additional skins.

That would be awesome. I'd probably just go all black, black suit spidey has always been my favourite in the comics, especially the Ultimate version. We'd also see some hideous creations (Dark Souls Character Creator Style) and colour combos... like a green and pink spidey swinging around.

It looks kinda cool, but I'm not Spider-Man's biggest fan, so I'm getting a PS4 just for this. I doubt I would play it even if it came out for PC, truth be told. I'm kinda bummed out by open-world games at this point.
 
Im still waiting on the first great Spider-Man game to incorporate the part that makes Spider-Man the best superhero character. Namely, the Peter Parker parts.

I want a game where I have to juggle Peter's romantic interests, make choices about what social gatherings I can attend and not attend cuz of my Spider-Man responsiblities, I want the human supporting cast to be a major part of the game, I wanna pay rent, sell pictures to Jonah and get better shots than a rival photographer...I wanna do all that shit. That is the key to every great Spider-Man adaptation, from comics, to the Spectacular Spider-Man TV show, to Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 1/2.

Im afraid this be just like every other Spider-Man game, where its just Spidey doing in-costume stuff. Which, ya know, cool, cuz hes got a dope costume(usually cuz this one is awful), great sense of humor, awesome power set...but you don't really GET Spider-Man until you get Peter Parker.

Maybe I need a better look but white on his hands seems like armor. Almost like brass knuckles.

Also I'm fine with the suit. Sure the game will have Alts for those who don't like

This is a cool shot

I'm getting more of an athletic inspiration from the suit. There's white on the bottom of his feet, kina makes me think it's like a rubber to help brace and absorb impact. The big white symbols also kinda remind me of a jersey. Anyway I like it seems like they put thought into it.

This is a super interesting suggestion that has got me thoroughly agreeing with you.

I wouldn't be upset if these things weren't included, but man...if they were....

Looks great. Kinda a shame it's exclusive, since Spidey has such a broad appeal.

You are right and everybody should be able to play it, but... this is also a great system seller provided it's really good and better then most of the other spidey games.
 
I know Marvel is stating that it's not connected to the films, but I believe the look is going to be very much inspired by the films. I believe this Spider-Man is the from the movie universe, except this Spider-Man is more experienced and mature, and probably has various more costumes lol.

Alright, if this is anything like the teaser suggests and they manage to make the story compelling, I'm buying 12 copies. I don't care. I'll make a wall out of them. Or I'll melt them in my veins.

yeah I'm betting on this being in some way related to Homecoming

God, I hope they don't do any of this. Peter Parker's life is very boring.

It is not timed. It's a full exclusive game, since it is published by SIE/Playstation.

It would not have been exclusive if Activision didn't mess up with the last three games. Marvel wanted quality titles based on their franchise. Even Deadpool was poorly received by critics, fans and gamers alike. Activision are the right people when you want games based on already established TV/Comics IPs.

I don't know much about Spider-man, and last time I checked the comics were confusing with clones and other pap. So I googled 'White Spider' that everyone was talking about and found this. So I guess this is a new spider-man costume for the game.

Speaking of 'white spider', after Second Son: First Light (the only Infamous game I've wanted to play), I could totally see them doing a Spider Gwen game. There's probably no appeal in that though.

Now what's the next step in your master plan?

That's my thinking on things. They made a deal with Marvel to let them use him in the movies and no doubt part of that deal was to let Sony publish an exclusive game. Hopefully its awesome and a raging success and we get more AAA Spidey games in the future.

God, I hope they don't do any of this. Peter Parker's life is very boring.

Man are you even a Spidey fan? People love the character because Peter Parker is Spiderman. His regular life being what it is is one of the reasons the character resonates with more people. Not too mention Spiderman/Persona would make an awesome combination as you have to juggle your daily routines with being Spidey. Get to class on time and improve your mental skills or stop that bank robber in a car chase with the police? That's one of the big elements of Spiderman and one I wanted to see worked into a game for a long time.

So many mad people.

You were NEVER gonna get a great Spiderman with activision and the multi platforms titles.

This exclusive means it has a chance to shine, I fully trust Insomniac.

If you really want it just buy a ps4, it has more than enough games to justify it.

Yeah if anything I'd say it has the best exclusives coming out right now. Horizon looks great, GoW looks cool, and so does this.
