that was the next gen version lol

you know this how?

 

[Repulsor Blast]

you know this how?

because it looks better than the ps360 trailer they release before this one. they also made the point of stating that the first 40 second teaser was last generation. no such disclaimer was made this time.

it also makes literally no sense for them to still be holding back next gen footage for a game that comes out in approx. 3 months. but hey, they are beenox...

it's the same engine between gens, but the latest trailer was for current gen platforms.

 

[Repulsor Blast]

just watched the last gen teaser. my god, it's as if the graphics have been intentionally made worse than the tasm1 game so as to trick people into thinking the ps4 version is impressive.

this happens all the time when a new gen starts. such a shame.

well... it's not easy to do an HD expansive city environment, even if it's next gen

Spidey fans are just asking for too much imo. seriously, it's more likely that we'll see the second coming of jesus before fans get the spidey game they're demanding

EDIT: also just because they didn't do an announcement it doesn't prove it's next gen. they didn't even render the last 40 sec trailer in full HD (I don't know what Beenox's problem is but they did that with Edge Of Time and TASM1 early trailers too)

I think it was the PS3/360 version. Looking at how dull the city is and that last shot where you see the cars being dense near Spidey but almost lacking further away.

On the other hand, I'm pretty stoked for this to come out already. Will get it definitely day 1. Thanks for uploading the trailer, missed it when it was out!

our "demands" are very reasonable, especially when you consider the work treyarch did under the same publisher.

if anything, we want progress. we aren't going to get arkham quality anytime soon, but that is what should be aspired to.

instead, they keep going back to the drawing board with each new installment, which is kind of ridiculous seeing as they have a tight schedule etc.

it's cool you don't care, but some of us who like gaming and spider-man want the two to combine into something good.

oh I do care, a lot. I'm just trying to think realistically, and by no means am I trying to offend the people want more. But the maps in Arkham games are pretty small, even the one in Arkham Origins that is supposedly "the entire Gotham" so they can afford better graphics. Also, Batman is not nearly as agile and acrobatic as Spider-man so they can make the most out of the little animation they have. People are demanding for super agile acrobatics with seamlessly fluid animation in a huge detailed live feeling HD city map. surely you must understand why i figure that is outrageously unrealistic

and I still think that this was for the current gen. maybe they didn't make an announcement because the last trailer already teased the current gen game so now they just gave the full trailer

excuses, excuses everywhere.

i especially love the charge jump answer. i struggle to buy that devs are the ones answering these questions.

 

[smidders]

look at the city model on the long tabel, do you think thats the full map.

you only think it is current gen because it looks underwhelming. fact is, it's ps4/xbone footage. i've already explained why. i guess we will know for sure soon enough. hopefully they will confirm so once the trailer is officially released. but seriously, it is not ps360. no way. if it is, then beenox have the worst pr team in the history of video games.

early generation games, especially cross-gen ones, are always blurring the line between last and current.

as for the non-bold, people have different demands, so i do apologise. personally, i just want basics like the swinging system and combat system to be rewarding. we have spider-man 2 from a decade ago, so there's no justification for having worse swinging.

that game also had all of new york, not just manhattan..

so there is a precedent. beenox are failing to live up to it. they don't listen to feedback and dismiss valid suggestions as actually being negative. you want a charge jump? nah, the game is about swinging more than jumping... seriously, how passive agressive is that?

i'd rather they make shattered dimension type games if they are going to fall so short in the open world side of things.

and the 40 sec teaser looked worse than tasm1 on ps3, so there's no excuse for that. it's like when the last ps2 fifa game looked worse than the preceding one, simply because attention was given to next gen.

 

[Spider-man95]

Not impressed with the graphics, this still looks like previous gen to me

No game looks Next gen yet, not even triple A games. Why would a movie licensed game look better?

You have to understand how graphics will work this gen, there will not be a huge difference from the beginning of PS4/Xbox One to PS3/Xbox 360. Last gen was noticeable when it started but now we are reaching a point where the graphics will not be as noticeable as previous gens.

 

[Spider-man95]

I liked the trailer. Though I was disappointed by the lack of web swinging.....

Still what we saw of it was pretty cool, I do think some of you are being way too harsh when we haven't seen direct game play yet.

 

[Spider-man95]

look at the city model on the long tabel, do you think thats the full map.

Good eye!

If that is the map it still looks the size of the last game.

But they did say it will be the most expansive New York City.

 

[Repulsor Blast]

we're being harsh because we haven't seen direct gameplay lol

beenox don't release gameplay prior to releasing their spider-man titles for some reason

it makes you wonder what they're trying to hide

it's a valid concern, especially with the track record of past games, and the fact that gameplay is constantly being released ahead of time for other titles.

 

[Spider-man95]

I can agree with that. Beenox are being a bit secretive with this game.

I do think the web swinging has potential though, and that might be enough for me to keep playing this game.

They really need to release a gameplay video very very soon.

GameUnboxingReviews spotted Venom on a billboard. Could be Venom could just be distortion looking like Venom.

He did bring up some cool points, like weather system and reflective buildings.

I gotta be honest, watching the trailer again and again, this games graphics are no where near as bad as some of you are making them out to be.
They're actually pretty decent for a movie video game.

You guys have to understand that this gen won't look vastly different from last gen at the moment. Wait until the PS4 and Xbox One are later in their life cycles. Games will look next gen later on.

 

[Marvel Spider]

So why'd they take the trailer down?

It wasn't meant to be seen yet. The video was unlisted.

What's supposed to be his teeth, looks like a face to me. Kind of a side view of something like this.

Yeah, like I said, it's probably distortion. I don't think they would put Venom on a billboard in the city. That would be really weird.

 

[smidders]

Its not venom its just a side view of a face

 

[MrSpyder]

So Kraven's teaching SPIDEY to become the Ultimate Hunter.... Interesting!

 

[smidders]

I would love the next gen graphics to be like kraven on this poster

 

[darthcoolness3]

The last ASM game got super hyped due to E3, and I don't think this game will get the hype since this game and the movie are coming out in May 2014 with Captain America 2.

 

[Nathan]

I would love the next gen graphics to be like kraven on this poster

Honestly, it would be disappointing if next-gen (well, current now) hardware is required to make Kraven look that good. We can already achieve that level of quality with last gen hardware.

 

[Spider-man95]

Its not venom its just a side view of a face

Ah I see that now!
