So you get a fat GAME OVER screen if you don't press L1 here?

The fall will kill him, not Spiderman.

 

[keltickennedy]

Wow that's impressive. Also the lighting looks so good, how??

Wow. They even took the time to animate the wind rippling through the suit. That's nuts.

 

[tusken77]

How large was Sunset Overdrive?

I was about to ask this, never played Sunset Overdrive. I just looked up its map. Spider-Man's world being five times larger than this is impressive. Very pleased.

 

[Greatest Ever]

I supposed that's a better title than "Has PP gameplay"

 

[JOKERACN7]

Too bad the combat system, most likely, will remain dull and shallow af

 

[-griffy-]

• For the most neurotic fans, Insomniac assures that the white Spider-Man symbol is meaningful and has a purpose that's explained in game.

You will be ashamed of your words and deeds.

 

[adamsapple]

Thanks for the summary, all of the information makes the game sound fantastic.

I can't believe I'm this hyped for a Spiderman game.

 

[Oni Jazar]

BUT WHAT OF THE WEB SLINGING?!

Oh, they said it's much more complex than it looked.

Good to hear and should be in OP but I still want to hear more about it. I really hope it takes skill to learn like Spiderman 2. I liked having to be mindful of your momentum, angle, velocity, and surroundings. If you're swinging towards the river or park you better hope you have enough momentum or you're gonna have a bad time. That would make or break the game.

 

[bede-x]

Single player only! So nice, really love how Sony keep investing in AAA single player games. Props to them.

This is my most wanted AAA game at the moment, but I hope it isn't too scripted. Too many QTEs in the demo.

 

[MegaSackman]

People that don't like cinematic action adventure games might start a change.org already.

This is the Arkham game Marvel needed, they're probably going that route.

Spoiler

I'm on board.

 

[VanWinkle]

Holy crap, this world's going to be huge. Even Sunset Overdrive's was pretty darn big.

All this info has me hyped. Big Peter Parker role is great.

 

[Not]

The fall will kill him, not Spiderman.

"...But I don't have to save you. Happy landings, chuckles!"

 

[Keinning]

In the IGN interview the director mentions that Spider-Man will save them automatically

Why even do QTEs if the results will end up the same? Honest question, Ryse did it too and pissed me off as well. "You can do more damage", guy's falling from a building, you won't do more damage than that.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

In the IGN interview the director mentions that Spider-Man will save them automatically

Ah, okay.

Why even do QTEs if the results will end up the same? Honest question, Ryse did it too and pissed me off as well. "You can do more damage", guy's falling from a building, you won't do more damage than that.

Because it feels good.

 

[BadWolf]

Sounding good, looking forward to it for sure.

Really like the look and animation. The gameplay may or may not be deep but at least it looks nice and flashy.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Will Mr Aziz be in this?

If I flip the pizzas, Mr. Aziz will flip out.

 

[WordsintheWater]

Aw... Booooo.

I feel the same way lol. In Spider-Man 2 I used to take an enemy to the top of a high building and piledrive them all the way down.

 

[keltickennedy]

So you get a fat GAME OVER screen if you don't press L1 here?

It's probably similar to the Arkham games. If you don't manually do it the enemy will automatically get webbed to the side of the ledge.

 

[Kaiser Swayze]

Can I grab a robber off the street and do a spinning pile driver with him from the top of the Empire State building? I think that just knocked them out in 2, so how about it?

 

[FrontalMonk]

Peter is gonna get killed or otherwise sidelined and we will finish the game as Miles.

I'd be okay with an RDR style ending, not gonna lie.

 

[ElephantShell]

So you get a fat GAME OVER screen if you don't press L1 here?

Lol that would actually be kind of cool. A Spider-Man or Batman game where you can technically kill enemies but fail it you do.

 

[Not]

"You can do more damage", guy's falling from a building, you won't do more damage than that.

This is really funny

 

[iosefe]

If the game world is that big, does that mean full scale model of Manhattan? Probably Queens and maybe Brooklyn as well

 

[Jawbreaker]

This is all music to my ears.

 

[spectator]

Unless taking steel beams at 100mph to the head isn't deadly.

Checking... brb

 

[Slayven]

If I flip the pizzas, Mr. Aziz will flip out.

What about Typeface?

 

[LKSmash]

In the IGN interview the director mentions that Spider-Man will save them automatically

That's pretty lame. That means combat will be restricted because it won't allow you to move on to someone else until that person you're trying to kill is safe.

 

[KingdomHeartsFan]

So you get a fat GAME OVER screen if you don't press L1 here?

Exactly what came to mind when I read the OP.

 

[DOWN]

Wow that's impressive. Also the lighting looks so good, how??

It's got that basic ass American comedy color grading though. Like the MCU - a bit lacking in style. Just normal daytime American movie look, but maybe it changes up

 

[Reptars Revenge]

Peter Parker Pizza delivery mini game.

 

[WordsintheWater]

Why even do QTEs if the results will end up the same? Honest question, Ryse did it too and pissed me off as well. "You can do more damage", guy's falling from a building, you won't do more damage than that.

I believe that L1 pops up whenever he knocks and enemy into the air, for example it happens even when he's indoors with no risk of falling off the building, I believe you do have to hit the button in that context, but if the enemy is falling off a building it would bring him in automatically.

 

[Son Of Sparda]

There will be a lot of gameplay and story segments where you play as Peter Parker going about his day instead of Spider-Man.

The most exciting bit of news for this game thus far.

 

[adamsapple]

Wow that's impressive. Also the lighting looks so good, how??

Do we know what engine this is using ? Unreal 4 ? Decima ? proprietary ?

 

[delSai]

All of this sounds fucking amazing

 

[Anung]

Do we know what engine this is using ? Unreal 4 ? Decima ? proprietary ?

Not enough trees to be the decima engine.

 

[Username1198]

This game is gonna be spectacular, amazing even.

 

[2blackcats]

So Arkham Asylum meets Shenmue 2. Awesome.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Damn that's a huge open world.

 

[BumRush]

Peter gameplay sounds intriguing

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Sounds good. Hoping for a really solid and slick game.

 

[WordsintheWater]

That's pretty lame. That means combat will be restricted because it won't allow you to move on to someone else until that person you're trying to kill is safe.

Yeah that was my thought while I was listening to the director. Maybe I understood what he was saying wrong but I don't think so.

 

[GrayFoxPL]

I killed people in Arkham, I managed to kill citizens in every AC game after they stopped allowing it.

Challenge accepted, Insomniac.

That's one way of life, lol.

 

[Oathbreaker]

Great informations. Probably day 1.

 

[Keinning]

So Arkham Asylum meets Shenmue 2. Awesome.

It's not shenmue 2 if you can't open every window in the buildings

 

[keltickennedy]

This won't be in the game. But it would be cool if they had a black symbiote mechanic. The more people you kill while playing leads you into getting the black suit.

 

[Dynedom]

Single-Player Only = Good

 

[Toki767]

If the game world is that big, does that mean full scale model of Manhattan? Probably Queens and maybe Brooklyn as well

Giant Bomb stream last night said they said it was the entire Manhattan.

 

[Elandyll]

Looks and sounds amazing. Pleeeeease be good

 

[shandy706]

Why even do QTEs if the results will end up the same? Honest question, Ryse did it too and pissed me off as well. "You can do more damage", guy's falling from a building, you won't do more damage than that.

99% of QTEs in Ryse were optional. You could take out enemies without them.

These may be optional too...

I like the idea of prompted perks though.

 

[Shredderi]

You can see the marvel money behind the production values.
