A Deadpool Game From Insomniac Games Needs To Happen

Considering the failure of Marvel’s Avengers, Insomniac Games may be the only hope we have left of another standalone Deadpool game. This not only makes sense, but everything is within the reach to make it possible.

RaidenBlack975d ago

Suda51 already expressed interested in making a Deadpool game. Let him do it.
Insomniac can instead try out a new IP after Wolverine.

Sonic-and-Crash975d ago (Edited 975d ago )

Insomniac and Sony must not become Marvel s library of superhero games......i dont like superheroes and many like me are nt fan of them outside US

1 - 2 Spiderman games are enough for variety , we dont need more ..Sony should stick to its Japanese side that made them successful ....on PS1 or PS2 none bought Spidermans and Wolverines, fans loved PS for MGS , Monster Hunter, Final Fantasy , JRPGS Japanese horror (RE,Silent hill ,Dino crisis) etcetc

ColtPSSX975d ago (Edited 975d ago )

Pretty sure even people outside the us like them. I live outside the US and all my friends love them. Sony/MS still have rpg. They just third party. Why does it have to be first party?

SinisterMister975d ago

What are you on about fella? Insomniac has the talent of making top-tier games, so why shouldn't they utilize it to the fullest? Insomniac's Spider-Man is one of the most fun games I've played in a while, not to mention the title's immense fan following. They'll prove themselves again with Wolverine (hopefully) and a Deadpool game too would be outright amazing, given the versatility of the character.

Nitrowolf2975d ago (Edited 975d ago )

Sony should stick to it’s Japanese side?

Well I do agree they should lean more on that, but what does that have to do with an American ran, created dev studio like Insomniac that has always created western games?

You listed nothing but third party studios that are still, for the most, making those games.

Also, Spider-Man popularity is huge worldwide, even in Japan

ApocalypseShadow975d ago

Complete nonsense. You are not the world or represent others. Spider-Man game sales alone on one platform prove your statement to be false. The Marvel and DC movie ticket sales worldwide prove that your statements are false. There are so many characters with interesting powers and stories from comic books that can be told.

Every game you mentioned is 3rd party. Sony and Insomniac can do both original IPs and super hero games and already are as Ratchet and Clank is not a super hero game. Asobi Studio build up proves that Sony is still making Japanese games.

Gamers actually want Marvel and DC games. Come back when you actually have truthful statements Donald.

BlaqMagiq1975d ago

Thank God they don't listen to what you think. This is an extremely dumb statement especially when everything you listed was third party. If they want to keep making superhero games. Let them. They are excellent for that.

CrimsonWing69974d ago

That’s a pretty bold statement about why people loved PS1 and PS2, especially PS2 when we started seeing games like God of War and GTA 3,,,

DarXyde974d ago

Ummm.... You do know that Sony has more than one studio, right? And you do know that Insomniac has never made Japanese games, yeah?

What's interesting to me is the fact that you don't like superheroes. Fair enough, but I fail to see how that in itself makes a game less interesting. If Horizon: Zero Dawn played exactly the same but it was a Hawkeye/Green Arrow game, is it suddenly uninteresting to you?

Levii_92974d ago

Yes i agree , super hero movies are an old and tired thing i’m sick of them and sick of Disney and Marvel movies are getting worse and it’s going to continue getting worse and worse they have oficially became a factory machine. However .. video games are an entirely different thing especially when they have studios like Insomniac working behind them. It’s just good fun and i can’t wait to see Wolverine.

Lionsguard974d ago

Japan doesn't buy Sony games, they're a Nintendo market. All of their success is attributed to the overseas market that's why they've been transitioning away from Japan for quite some time. That's why many of their PlayStation execs are no longer Japanese but foreigners. Also just because you aren't a fan doesn't equal the world, I know shocking right?

frostypants974d ago (Edited 974d ago )

"We" are fine with more superhero games. If you don't want 'em, don't buy 'em.

Mr Logic974d ago

You're delusional buddy.

ziggyzinfirion974d ago

Who are you to speak on behalf of those outside of the US? I am not from the States and I can assure you that the Marvel games or any other Superheroes games, even on mobile, are very popular in my country. Those japanese games that you have mentioned are mostly 3rd party developers. Insomniac is a 1st party developer and does not own most of those IP. Sony however can continue to collaborate with them to develop those games.

lellkay974d ago

oh @sonic-and-crash how silly you look right now.

dbcoops973d ago

So they should just make the games you personally like and want? What about me and many like me that dont care for "its Japanese side"? Sony should make the games that sell like crazy and if those games happen to be Super Hero games then that's what they should make, pretty sure they'll still make other games too.

Let them finish Spiderman 2 and Wolverine before another Marvel character gets thrown in. If there is a Deadpool game after that I wouldn't mind a Black Panther game. I wish DC would cough up a character and let Insomniac go to town with that character.

SinisterMister975d ago

Insomniac making a game on a DC character would be fucking massive. It would definitely raise the bar set by RockSteady Studios for the Batman games.

CorndogBurglar974d ago

A Green Lantern game similar in style to Mass Effect would be awesome.

Hell yes, please. Insomniac Games is one gem of a developer.

GhostofHorizon975d ago

That's just what we need, more Xbox players complaining. Not sure why they are complaining about Playstation getting supposedly garbage games but here we are.

That Wolverine complaining article was just bait to get some hits and people fell for it hook line and sinker.

GhostofHorizon974d ago

You can say the same thing about majority of the articles.

BlaqMagiq1975d ago

Yes please! And a Hulk one while they're at it.

Microsoft to Add Copilot AI to Video Games

Microsoft recently revealed its plans to incorporate Copilot directly into video games, with Minecraft being the first showcased example.

F*** AI

"Hey Copilot, what's a good meme to prove I dislike AI".... https://giphy.com/clips/sou...

Einhander197215h ago

Two trillion dollar company that just can't wait to put as many people possible out of work as fast as possible.

It feels like every single thing they do is making gaming worse and destroying the industry.

Why all the hate? Im actually excited about this! Always wanted this kind of immersion, and an AI companion with me all the time helping me out knowing the status of my skills/inventory/progress and giving me tips on the best approach or how to craft something specific is game changing for the industry.

Hate all you want about AI, but this is just the start and I can see the potential already. You wont be complaining in the next 5-10 years about this, but rather complain if a game hasn’t implemented it.

MrDead3h ago

Yes we can't wait for the work of others to be used without the need to pay them so that MS can profit even more from the people they fire.

I_am_Batman3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

There is no chance I'd ever use something like this, especially if it's not part of the core game design, but a layer on top of it. It's way too much handholding. Many games already feel like busy work, because they don't let the player figure things out on their own. Having a real-time interactive guide defeats the purpose of playing the game in the first place in my opinion.

If this were to become the standard like you predict, we'll see more and more video games get away with bad design, because people will just be used to ask for help from the AI companion anyway.

Number1TailzFan2h ago

Well Nintendo don't need this with some of their games these days, with invincible characters, items, easy bosses etc.. they do the hand holding built in

helicoptergirl3h ago

Takes "hand holding" in games to a whole new level.

Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 launch trailer will send shivers down your spine

Ninja Theory's latest trailer for their highly anticipated narrative action-adventure Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 is absolute cinema.

Reaper22_16h ago

Like I said before, buying Ninja Theory was one of the smartest moves by Microsoft. Games looks incredible.

Rynxie12h ago

Unfortunately, their games aren't big sellers. Will MS shut them down if hellblade 2 sells below expectations?

outsider162410h ago

If it sells below expectations, then i expect it to come to PS5.

Elda9h ago

The game may be a critical hit & still can get shut down. I highly doubt most XB owners will buy this game including the fact that it's digital only at $50. Most folks that have Gamepass will play the game through the sub service. If the reviews tomorrow are just average to low then that's another problem.

Obscure_Observer12h ago

"Like I said before, buying Ninja Theory was one of the smartest moves by Microsoft. Games looks incredible."

Indeed.

Just a few hours to go

I can´t wait!

z2g15h ago

badass. already installed via gamepass. if its as great as the first one I will pay for the whole game.

glenn197911h ago

I just don't understand why all the down votes

jwillj2k415h ago

Here we go again. Is this a game or a choose your own adventure???

purple10115h ago

if you choose left, turn to page 39, if you proceed forward, turn to page 43, to turn right, page 209, you finished the book early,

no but seriously this looks like Microsofts first hit, or should I say, first game of standout quality.

jwillj2k414h ago

Never questioned the quality. Question is will there be a need for the controller.

anast10h ago

The time machine 'choose your own' were awesome.

Tedakin12h ago

If it's anything like the first game, you will spend a lot of timing walking and solving puzzles, with some fights thrown in.

Elda14h ago

LOL! Didn't send any shivers down my spine but I'll demo it after midnight tonight through Gamepass to see what it's giving.

Obscure_Observer12h ago

After the midnight? I see...

Day one as expected for another game that you said you had zero interest.

Elda10h ago(Edited 10h ago)

Finally making a re-appearance. When the heat was on about XB closing studios you were crickets on all articles. Now that the heat has died down all of a sudden you're here on an XB exclusive article or should I say a timed exclusive...lol!! If you must know I can demo this game at midnight because the University I work at is closed for the summer so I can play video games until my heart's content until the end of August when I go back to work. That's what Gamepass is for, knowing I would not spend $50 on Hellblade 2 because the first one I thought was boring so I'm going to see if this one is still boring or is it interesting by demoing the game.

Elda9h ago

Why not I have a year subscription to Gamepass, I don't have to spend $50 on a digital only game that I may not like including I'm on a lengthy vacation from work.

rlow114h ago

It looks amazing, I’m hoping the reviews are solid. You can tell the studio really poured their heart and soul into this one.
