Well I already suggested that in the post you just quoted :P

I would like to see someone like Ubisoft handle the next game, it would be cool to see it play similar to Assassin's Creed

 

[Wolvieboy17]

I agree, Ubisoft are one of those devs who are just completely dedicated to quality.

yeah, I was impressed with Assassins Creed 2, no reason why a Spider-Man game can't be as good as that. If they had the right development team behind them along with great writers, it could stand a chance against Batman Arkham City.

Eh Ubisoft produces their fare share of poor titles. I say give Spidey to Rockstar San Diego

Stop sucking Rockstar's dick. It's sorta gross

Spoiler

half joking of course...it's not very gross.

Except for the last Splinter Cell game

I think Rockstar would do a great job with Spider-Man, seeing how well GTA 4 has done with a fictionalized NY, I don't think Rockstar really deals with superhero games though.

Yep. It's kinda disheartening when people's magical solution to this is always Rockstar. Rocksteady used to be pretty unknown, then look what happened...

If you would have read earlier post, then you would see where Ubisoft was also mentioned as a developer that could deliver a good Spider-Man game . I agree yes, Rocksteady was relatively unknown until Arkham Asylum released.

I wasn't specifically talking about you. I was agreeing that other developers could also make great Spider-Man games. I was commenting that most people in general just throw around the Rockstar name.

I'll be glad when Activision loses those rights, I think I speak for alot of people by saying their Spider-Man games have went downhill. Out of all of the games I played, I'll have to say that Spider-Man 3 was the worst, Web of Shadows comes right behind it

Hmm, i wonder why that is? Why would people use Rockstar as an example for a developer that could do Spider-Man justice? I just dont know why anyone would use them as an example. Can anyone here think of any games that Rockstar has made that could possibly lead someone to think that they could do a good Spider-Man game? What open world games that are critically acclaimed have they made? Im drawing a blank here...

Activision further confirms new Spider-Man game out this year at conference, developed by Beenox.

That future where Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions dev Beenox will be Activision's go-to studio for Marvel's franchise we reported on last month? It's officially this year. The publisher revealed during its Q4 2010 financial call that a new Spider-Man game is in development and will be released by the end of the calendar year. No further details were divulged.

It was also announced in the call that 2011 will see the release of licensed titles from Activision based on Family Guy and Wipeout. The latter's the "obstacle course" style game show, not Sony's futuristic racing franchise.

Out already by the end of this year? Jeez, how much development time is this game getting? Then we'll be getting a movie game for the reboot undoubtedly in 2012.

It cant be longer than two years, hell 1 and a half would be pushing it. They just finished working on SD and i KNOW that team isnt that big. Thats why there is no way this game will be anything other than mediocre, you cant put in that much quality in a years time.

OK, cool we get a great open-world game...

Spider-Man will also have no powers, be an immigrant and ex-con, he will steal cars, have a family he needs taking after, fight the police and screw ****es.

Because, you know, Rockstar is gold and anything they do will be awesome.

Exactly.

Their track record speaks for itself, compared to say Beeonox, Treyarch, Shaba, Vicaroius Visions, do i need to continue?

I can assure you that the reboot game will be rushed, especially if its gonna meet the deadline of the film itself. So expect graphics similar to SM3, dull voice acting, a large city with pedestrians that dont acknowledge your presence, villains that were not seen in the film, uninspired missions, uninspired combo system.

 

[GamerSlyRatchet]

The point of socool's comment: missed.

Anyways, I'm getting nervous that this game is coming out this year. Considering Activision STILL hasn't learned anything going by the recent Guitar Hero incident, and they seem to be rushing this. I liked Shattered Dimensions, but I would love it if Activision no longer has the license.

I agree, even though some people here might not like the direction that GTA 4 took or any of the GTA games for that matter, each game in the series elevated itself above the previous. Rockstar opened the doors for open world gaming in general, they get my credit for taking a city like Liberty City which is based on NYC and recreating it in all of its glory all while adding detail to their character models, vehicles, etc. Activision on the other hand seems to do the bare minimal when it comes to Spider-Man, SM3 did not have a next gen feel to it, it felt like SM2 with slightly sharper graphics, definitely not worth 60 dollars.

No i got it. But it was so painfully misguided there was no need to respond to it, so i responded with more evidence as to why Rockstar could handle Spidey better than what we have been given. There's really no debate to be had about that.

I'm not doubting Rockstar's talent at all. Even when I was disappointed with Grand Theft Auto IV, it took the awesomeness Red Dead Redemption to ease my worries. I'm just a little annoyed that it's the ONLY option most people (not all) seem to go for, especially when I just don't see the studio being interested in any kind of superhero games at all. I would love to eat my words about this, but let's be more realistic.

It doesnt matter if you like those games or not, or find fun in those games or not, whats not debatable is that those title are well developed games. Rockstar has, on countless occasions, shown they are a top notch developer in this industry. They give their games the care and attention each one deserves. Its why they dont bang out a GTA every year, they, almost more than any other studio, care about the product they release. Again thats evidenced by the outstanding achievements in titles like Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption and i have a hunch we will add LA Noire to that list shortly.

Now im not saying Rockstar is the only other studio that could handle Spidey, and im not saying Rockstar would ever want to take the Spidey license but there really is no argument that they wouldnt do Spider-Man justice when you look at their past performance. They are an extremely talented development team.

I think we all can agree just about anyone would be better suited to handle Spidey than Activision.

Oh i agree completely, i mean Rockstar doesnt really strike me as the "superhero" type. I just bring them up due to their stellar performance in giving players living, breathing open world titles, which many seem to think Spidey is best suited to.

Twas a joke but I guess that isn't allowed.
