If Insomniac themselves said it's fake, then it's fake.

Id tend to agree, but they could just be playing their cards close to their chest. Theres been countless times where dev/publishers bent the truth(or out right lied) in order to keep a lid on a project.
 
I'm just glad we're getting an adult Spider-Man. Breath of fresh air compared to the cartoons (Ultimate and now Marvel's) and Homecoming.

Yea it'll be unique thats for sure. I think we'll see a ton of homages, but this will deff be Insomniacs Spider-Man.

Can't wait for it. Norman running for Mayor is a terrifying thing to think about but it's happening!

Oh, on an somewhat unrelated note, its been noticed that The Amazing Spider-Man 1 and 2 have been pulled from all digital marketplaces. Assuming Activisions license has finally run out.

I really enjoyed the first ASM game. Second one not so much. :oldrazz:
 
I really hope Mysterio is in this game.
It's been a very long time since I've seen him around.
He was so fun to battle in Spider-Man 2.
 
TBH, I don't blame that video creator or those who are cautious about this too much. The reason being, most people that'll visit a comic based site for info on games like this aren't typically hardcore gamers. They just don't have a good understanding of how the industry works. They see another Spider-Man game and immediately compare it to what came before without taking in to consideration budget, dev time, studio, publisher etc.


An Activision published Spider-Man game, developed by a B list studio with absolute minimal budget nor concern for quality is going to be night and day different than a Sony published Spider-Man game, developed by an A list developer with a larger budget and a MUCH higher focus on quality.

I keep telling people that Insomniac will do for Spidey what Rocksteady did for Batman. Batman was a joke in the video game community before Arkham Asylum, now, he's a game of the year contender. Assuming Insomniac has the same care and love for the character that Rocksteady did, Spidey is in more than capable hands.

Bingo.

Plus, Insomniac is the sort of studio with the passion and power at this point that if they feel the game isn't done--it's being pushed back. No way in hell either them nor Sony push this out the door to meet a deadline. It's already avoiding the movie's release so there is literally NO reason to rush this. And I don't think they will. It'll come out when it's done. And that's the most exciting part to me.
 
I just rewatched some of the interviews for this game, and the developers seem genuinely passionate about their craft. And not just that, they also understand what makes Spider-man as a character overall so great. Insomniac says that the trailer only scratches the surface of this game, and I believe them. They gushed about the open world exploration, fun agile traversal and smart combat. No stone is left unturned in their search for possibilities

Oh man, it's been half a year since that E3 and I still get the high back everytime when I think of Spidey ps4

Official Playstation Magazine UK showing Spider-Man and God of War as 2017 titles?

I saw a PS4 calendar on Twitter a while back that had Spidey listed for this July. Underneath the title it said that it is very possible that the games in the calendar will not be released in that month or even that year, if I remember correctly. So I wouldn't take the 2017 thing as gospel. I'm prepared for it to be a 2018 title.
 
Its a cover and one made in October or November of last year. I wouldnt put much into it
 
I think they are trying for fall 2017 but it will get delayed to early 2018
 
I'm really curious about the look of the villains. If they'll be redesigned as drastically as Spidey is.

Been wondering about that too. Apart from the obvious white spider emblems Spider-Man still looks like Spider-Man and I think the villains in the web head's history have had more drastic design changes over the years than Spider-Man himself, so I'm not too worried about them. I think they'll look recognisable at least.

Can't see them going as drastic as something like the TASM 2 design's for Goblin and Rhino.

I hope they don't try to take a too realistic approach to the villains' designs. Let Shocker have an actual suit and not just a jacket. Let Scorpion have his green metallic suit and not just parts of a military suit with some scraps on it.
 
Even though the IMDB thing was fake, I was hoping for Spidey to be married with a daughter - I'm having too much fun with Spider-man Renew Your Vows, so that'd be a nice element to have.

Homages are what I'm excited about. :woot: It'll be cool to see if they populate their NYC with references to other things in the MU, past Spidey refs and cameos just like in the PS1 games.

Agreed, I want this as fantastical as it can be. Give me hi-tech spandex here and there, no weird bio-engineered stand ins for the actual villains (I'm looking at you ASM). Pull from the 616 mainly and have fun with the designs.

I'd love an absolutely insane series of Goblin battles if he's a main or THE Main villain.
 
Did the developers ever explain the reasoning behind the white spider emblem on the costume?

Not yet, just that there is a reason for it that I'm guessing they don't want to talk about just yet.

Could just be that Peter is older so he upgraded his suit and decided to change the design a bit.
 
I'm just glad we're getting an adult Spider-Man. Breath of fresh air compared to the cartoons (Ultimate and now Marvel's) and Homecoming.

Unpopular opinion but Im not a fan of teen Spidey. I prefer the character as an adult. Despite resistance, thank god Marvel hasnt replaced adult Peter with a teenage version in the comics

I think I agree, I like teenage Peter when it's done right but I did grow up with Spider-Man TAS and the Raimi films where he was more adult and in college. I think it's great that we're getting an adult Spidey in this game, couldn't be happier with that decision.


You're welcome. :)
 
Saw the trailer again, and couldn't help but think of this spectacular scene.

I love good stories with a teen Spidey, and I like how he's characterized for the most part.
But I do stand in the ranks of adult Spidey > teen Spidey.
