Spider-Man on the PS4 is a great example of AAA development working at its best

When a big team has time and money to make something they care about

It’s a complete contrast to how Beenox was given only limited time to produce a different number of Spider-Man games

CarlDechance2045d ago

Absolutely. And a big difference in the final product is obvious as well.

Brilliant article from Polygon, if I may say so.

This game is a dream come true for Spider-Man fans! I've been reading since 88 during McFarlane and Michelinie run on Amazing and after reading Wizard for years and getting all the info and characters from Spidey's history this game is a love letter to fans!

I love all the little tidbits scattered in the backpacks and all the little nods to characters big and small! To top it off the game is extremely fun and I love the characterizations Insomniac has done with this!

I don't know if it's just me or does anyone else see it, but to me it seems Silver Sable was modeled after WWE (?) wrestler Rhonda Rousey.
Also in the game does Silver Sable ever use her throwing chi, if that's the name of them, little things that looked like three pronged combs. Last time I read a comic with her in it or a comic in general was 1990, so my memory is not accurate, but I do remember them being on her belt.

The Death Of Arkham Has Me Worried About Spider-Man

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.

CrimsonWing6914d ago

The sequel has had rumors that it could be sold piecemeal style or might be GaaS.

This is all coming from the leaks you mentioned. The problem is the industry is not doing well no matter how ill-informed people spin it on here when they see “sold 3 mill.” In those Sony leaks it showed the struggle to get ROI and they spend an insane amount of money to develop, which makes 0 sense to me when there’s not much to show for the increased development costs. Case in point would be Suicide Squad vs Arkham Knight.

I believe we’re in the middle of seeing a drastic change in media and distribution. This goes for movies, but more so for games and the industry is scrambling to figure out how to get more money out of consumers rather than stick to the “buy it once” to play it all.

These are things you need to pay attention to in order to know which direction the wind’s blowing with this sh*t storm. I was almost certain the GaaS initiative was killed when Jim was leaving, but now seeing the success of Helldivers 2… I’m thinking we’re in for a bumpy ride. I just don’t know what that looks like yet, but I don’t think it’s gonna be pretty.

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.

dmonee14d ago

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.

Spider-Man 2 (2004) and Ultimate Spider-Man use to be my favorite until Insomniac games took over.

Inverno148d ago

I'd still choose Ultimate above all other games, followed by Shattered Dimensions

Abnor_Mal148d ago (Edited 148d ago )

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.

Shout out to cultured vultures for NOT making this 40 separate pages.

Relientk77148d ago

Spider-Man (2000), Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro, and Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions were all so good! I have fond memories playing them.
