This is good news if real.
I've always enjoyed Spider-Man games. Some have been mediocre, but a lot have been great. I especially loved Shattered Dimensions.

Bad? No. Tedious? Maybe more than needed, but he/she probably meant that it will have nice animation and awesome traversal.

Sucker Punch + Spiderman IP = Hot damn!
Hopefully this means they will stop making Infamous games and take a break from the IP.

I've always wondered why they stuck with only doing Lego games. Captain America, Iron-Man, Spider-Man and X-Men in the hands of capable studios would be killer hits.
Not happening. They may take some unused IPs from Activision's hands, but I don't expect to outright buy the company. Just for the COD IP, shit will rain down on them before they can even get the chance.

What I wouldn't give for another X-Men Legends game for the PS4.
this.
They already said they were after release "First Light". It is also said that they are working on a new IP. It's been almost two years, so we might get an announcement this E3 or at worst, a teaser trailer (with a full reveal at PSX).
The Ratchet and Clank IP? Just kidding. The Ratchet and Clank on PS4 is awesome.
infamous has bad combat? what since when.
and you call those shitty P* random qte good combat?

They probably want a whole Marvel game universe like MCU but I think no publishers out there has ball to build many Marvel games at the same time. And asking each publishers to cooperate with each other for a universe is probably complicated because no one want to share profits

Any news of a Spider-Man game is good news, please let this be true.
The last thing we need is yet another watered down Bayonetta.
Yes please!
Gimme that Wolverine Platinum game, a Daredevil Arkham combat inspired game, a Crack in Time alike from Insomniac with Rocky and Groot, an Obsidian Marvel Ultimate Alliance
Spend that money Disney, cmon!

Give me a spiderman vr enabled games.
Personally, I don't think that you would need to share profits to share a thoroughly cohesive universe. Video games based on comic book properties are part of derivative products. It would make writing a tad bit easier for some game companies.

I thought that was God of War 4?

Since the idea is up in the air, I'm unsure how good Sucker Punch is with melee combat. I actually don't remember much of that from Infamous.
What?

It's serviceable. If they focus on movement/powers instead of just being a brawler they'd do great

Sony owned Spiderman for movies, I never got why they let the games based on those movies come out on Xbox and Nintendo systems.
Mind linking that?
Also, just because they can, it doesnt mean they will show the game. They have GoW and Dead Dont Ride for E3 already, plus Horizon, TLG, GT Sport and maybe GR2 & Dreams coming back, plus some other ''second party'' games are bound to show up.
Sony Pictures and SIE (miss ya SCE) are different things, not how that stuf works. Can be done for sure, but its not the same deal
They may share similarities on a bunch of front, but due to Groot's stature it would be hard to implement in a video game and make it fun as he is not exactly the typical game character. Although, Rocket would easily fit in the Ratchet and Clank mold gameplay-wise.
Because Activision owned the publishing rights for the Spider-Man for a very long time, even before Sony snatched the rights to the Spider-man movies.
Jeeeez, so srs.
Anyway, I was only referring to Second Son and yes, its combat was very lackluster. I enjoyed the game though!
And I haven't played the Transformers game so I don't know what P* random qte game you're talking about.
spiderman rights are all over the place
bayonetta is worst offender. and i loved that game

A Spider-Man game being exclusive doesn't sound right.

Because they made more money by them being on multiple platforms and without having to spend their own resources and first party devs to make them. They also didn't have to invest in games themselves. But they did publish some of them outside of NA and EU.
This was before when Sony owned all merchandising rights. They still make money from the movie tie-in's however, based off of the Sony e-mail leaks, which is something Activision aren't a fan of.
Best wishes.

I think gameplay in Second Son is fantastic, what's terrible are the missions design... in the whole franchise, terrible. Also characters and story but that wouldn't (shouldn't) be a problem here.

Sure and ultimately I want that as well, but I'd also like a combat that isnt just serviceable since I imagine we're gonna be doing that a lot as Spider-Man. Infamous is cool because it's combat is largely tps-focus, but I can't imagine doing the same as Spider-Man.
Really, I would like it if it focuses on the mobility aspect. Both exploration and in combat.

I hope it's Platinum making this, but I'd settle for Sucker Punch Spiderman game.
Seems to me like the infamous equivalent of "uncharted games have bad gameplay"
inFAMOUS games have problems, but combat isn't one of them (unless you're strictly talking about melee).

If it is exclusive it had to be a VR game. Marvel isn't in the business to prefer one platform over the other, with exception to phones.

Sucker Punch + Spiderman would be awesome. I hope it's true, I need a new Spidey game.

I mean serviceable as in it's just pushing the punch button and it works. Nothing spectacular/of note but not bad. Spidey doesn't need a ton of combos; give him a combo string with maybe a couple of finishers, everything else is based on web. Slingshots, grabbing, tying enemies together, blinding, stringing them upside down, sticking them to walls

Is there indication that Sucker Punch might be developing such a game, or is it just wishful guesswork based on their pedigree for open world traversal. I keep telling myself to get Second Son (I've even said I'll be picking it up in several threads already), but I always seem to put it off thinking I don't really have a strong enough urge to play it.

This.
Wishful guesswork.
More of the latter.
