Spider-Man coming to Marvel’s Avengers exclusively on PlayStation
Earth’s Mightiest Heroes get a helping hand from a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man in 2021.blog.playstation.com
Sorry I don't recall editing anything other then when I saw the quoted post to include it and replyI wanted to make sure I got your attention as I am correcting your previously erroneous post that stated Sony owned the game rights, which you then edited to say they owned the Marvel Spider-man game IP. That is still incorrect as the way that works is the publisher will end up owning the core code and certain assets in game (i.e. textures). The license owner will end up owning the story and everything else.
Wanted to make sure you caught that.
Your source is Grace Randolph? I'm really trying not to laugh here....Might as well post that other youtuber who keeps saying Universal owns Hulk and lends them out to Marvel.
EDIT: There's a legal binding contract out publicly that specifically states what each company owns. It was amended in 2015 and again in 2019, both of which we don't have access to. In the latest publicly available contract Marvel owns everything except:
- Live action and animated movies. There are specifics and they have to be a certain length and come out ever so often or they lose the right
- Live action TV rights.
- Some specifics on broadway shows and merch directly related to movies within a certain period of time.
That's it.
Grace Randolph has been right quite often. I trust her a lot more than you LOL.
Secondly, the latest publically available contract has... nothing to do withe the contracts that aren't publically available.
You're basically looking at a contract that's over a decade old and using it as proof? Get outta here with that.
Sony would need to get hacked. Plus it makes no sense Spiderman PS4 to be exclusive out of Disney’s choice. Insomniac wasnt a Sony studio. Disney could have published the game themselves, Activision, whoever. The whole insomniac picked Spiderman sounds like BS.You are right on everything except the game rights. I would need a source for that. I mean we have sources for everything including EA/Lucas contract for games which is 10 years long, so if there's such a contract between Sony and Marvel I would have to see it otherwise you're just making stuff up.
I will disagree with your speculation on why they got such contracts (i.e. Marvel SM). I believe it's completely separate from the movie deal. Marvel Games is completely independent from Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures is completely separate from SIE.

Do they? Do you have any recent examples of MS paying a company to permanently keep content away from Sony? I know of some timed exclusives but I’m not aware of any permanent exclusions.Shitty practice but they both do it.
I'll play Equate Avengers when it's on gamepass
How doesn't that make sense? Maybe you dont like it. But it makes perfect sense. Why does Disney need to make their own games for?It doesn't have to make sense. Does it make sense for Disney to shut down Lucas Arts and give the Star Wars gaming IP to EA for 10 years? Nope, but that happened.
Again you have your speculation and I have mine. We can't prove each other wrong and they are just educated guesses on our parts.
I own all platforms too. But I’m not supporting this garbage. I like to buy multiplats on my One X and exclusives on my pro. I’m not going to buy off my platform of choice because Sony and Square decided to be scummy. It’s exactly like the Epic store and Steam argument. Yes, all pc users can just buy the epic store version, but they dont want to. And at least then, it’s usually just a timed exclusive.This is why I get all platforms. No bitchin. Exclusive shit will always exist.

When you look at a picture it's in reverse, right is left and left is right and you said right from CA
anyway it's a new character named Kamala
This sucks for Spider-Man fans as well. Now he can’t be in the main story or any DLC. The game has to completely work without him. He can never be more than an afterthought. He’ll never get balanced properly or have the heat progression the others due.
Thanks to Sony platform locking him, we only get a gimped Spider-Man forever

Spider-Man has his own games. Does he need to be that involved in the story for this one too?

Just deleted this from my wishlist, fuck Sony! I'm hope all those playstation sales make up for the losses on PC and Xbox.
You're underestimating how big the PC userbase is, hope this stupid move is worth it, not for Sony or its fanboys, but for SE.
Well they could always pay them to include Craig.Big time. I wish MS would play more dirty tbh. They just get their asses handed to them when they allow this stuff to happen and dont do it themselves with big IPs. Most people will just buy it on ps4 now.
It works.
SE is getting paid I’m sure. Disney can afford to pay a shitton of it keeps Sony happy so they let Spidey stay in Marvel movies.

Sony has the rights to Spider-Man in film and video games.
its a DLC there are people that dont buy DLCs and just kep the base game also looking at the designs(they are making generic looking designs) probably will be insomniac's design of spiderman
maybe its stupid but it was way more stupid not to release a tomb raider game in PS4 for a year
Nobody knows for sure. But given their recent exclusivity they apparently DO own the video game rights.Part of this statement is right and part of this statement is wrong.

Its not about that, I also own all platforms, but I prefer PC as games look and run better there, however that option is now a lesser version
Let me stop your straw man argument and remind you that Sony is doing the same thing with FF7 Remake on other platforms.
Sony is the market leader for a reason
I love this type of practice. Please PlayStation just keep them coming!
I wonder if the people complaining about this are the same people that say the game looks shit and won't buy it.
If the Avengers game takes place in the same universe as the PS4 Spidey game it makes sense for this to be exclusive IMO.
It doesn’t and isn’t
