After 2008's The Dark Knight, superhero movies suddenly flooded the movie market. Doc Watson from ButtonBashGamers knows this, and saw Insomniac's success with Spiderman on the PS4 to dream up some superheroes that could do the same thing in the video game space. Here are his five superheroes from all walks of comic book genre that could do wonders with the video game treatment.
Saad from eXputer: "After the rise of Rocksteady and its fall with post-Suicide Squad, I'm worried about Marvel's Spider-Man suffering a similar fate."
Why? According to the well publicized Insomniac leaks they have a slew of plans for Spiderman including its sequel.
Insomniac still has a good generation left in them before they get cannibalized by investors. It'll probably happen around the mid PS6 gen, when we see the beginning of the fall.
Huh with this article? If Sony and Insomniac want to abandoned the Spider-Man franchise and make a half baked, live service Spider-Man game, and miss the mark with their fans, then God bless’em!!!!
Seems unlikely when they abandoned the GaaS spiderverse game but are still going ahead with single player games like Wolverine and Spider-Man 3.
"There’s little doubt to the fact that video games are the ultimate form of art; stirring together elements of cinema and music with interactivity to create experiences like no other."
From the Amazing Spider-Man series to the most recent titles and DLCs, explore which Spider-Man game deserves to be ranked first and why.
Spider-Man 2 (2004) and Ultimate Spider-Man use to be my favorite until Insomniac games took over.
My favorite and still champion Spiderman PS2, followed by Marvels Spiderman2, then Miles Morales, followed by Marvels Spiderman, and finally Ultimate Spiderman.
I need to drag out my PS3 and try Web of Shadows, owned the game for years and years and never played.
Spider-Man (2000), Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro, and Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions were all so good! I have fond memories playing them.
I'll toss my hat in the ring and say that we deserve an XMen game that is framed like the early Harry Potter PS1/PS2 games, Bully, or Persona 3-5 (balance school life in some way with combat and an openish world)
Iron Man is the obvious shout and could be brilliant. Hellboy is a good left-wing choice though as long as Ron Perlman is in!
“After 2008's The Dark Knight, superhero movies suddenly flooded the movie market.”
The movie market was flooded with superhero movies long before 2008.
“After a significant drought of solid superhero games”
Just last year we’ve had Gravity Rush 2, Injustice 2, Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2, & Batman: The Enemy Within. It’s not that significant a drought.
hulk ultimate destruction needs to be remade or remastered
Everytime a big game comes out with critical and commercial success, you always see articles like this about “other games that should be like this game.”
