You know Sony proper has a grip on Spider Man, right? That's like, the only way we got that game as an exclusive.
Jesus dude.
Marvel license Spider-Man film rights to Sony Pictures, Marvel buyout by Disney, Sony still produces Spider-Man films and eventually partners with Disney to integrate him into the MCU. Simultaneously Activision loses the game rights. Disney is obviously gonna throw it at the feet of the partner who also runs a successful video game business and already has some stake in the Spider-Man. If you think it is some kind of coincidence that Sony got the exclusove rights to produce Spider-Man games then I'm sorry bud, that's just not likely.
There is absolutely no reason another Marvel IP would become an exlcusive, let alone be produced by SIE.
No, but they had never made an open world game before. We know from a tech standpoint that Spider-Man is built on the foundations of Sunset. Sunset also showed that they could venture into genres they were not initially familiar with.I don't think they needed to have done Sunset in order for Sony to choose them as the development house on a Disney/Marvel IP. I think they were the obvious choice outside of Sucker Punch for using a Disney/Marvel property.
Sony has an existing relationship with Insomniac, Knows what they're capable of within graphics, traversal, creativity, and their knowledge of the PS4 hardware. I don't think the decision of which developer house took very long to come to based on timing and WWS availability/ability to make the kind of game a Disney/Marvel game would need to be.
The irony being that we have already hashed this out and you feel the need to start the conversation again.Lol again with that bs? It's been thoroughly explained, both on era and outside of it, like the podcasts with Bryan Intahar on Kinda Funny and IGN
Weren't there rumors about another Sly a few years ago?SolidSnakex Can you find a link to the commercial? I'd absolutely love me some new Sly, and I really think Sanzaru did a great job with TiT. I remember a rumor on GAF about 3 years ago saying a new Sly was coming, and I could see it being this year.

Nope, my statement still stands in the sense that we don't know all of the business arrangements and when it comes to business I don't believe in coincidences. My point was you felt the need to restart the convo by starting off with "not this again," something I can easily state in this situation to you.So you already realized how mistaken you were...good, but, what's ironic about that? :P
Yes, 2-3 years ago, nothing came out though.

well we dont know they will never do that. i think it is a better trade off than releasing with the next xbox and during election ad time. it will be so much more useful for sony to release earlier, also, we see lately third parties start to release games in Q1 rather than Q4, maybe by releasing the PS5 in early 2020 even more games will move to that time.

I feel like that isn't a huge stretch - with the success of R6 Siege, it makes sense Sony would want to try and bring that franchise back to life. Lowkey wish they just revived MAG insteadLMAO, ok I don't want to name him, but that guy is claiming that Sony is developing the next SOCOM game which he is calling a rumor. The name starts with a "T." So, take it with a grain of salt.
It makes sense if it's the other project Guerrilla is working on. Let's pretend he didn't just say GoT is slated for 2019 and not TLoU 2 or DS.LMAO, ok I don't want to name him, but that guy is claiming that Sony is developing the next SOCOM game which he is calling a rumor.

I can't find the actual commercial right now, but here's a pic from it with all three in it
Oh god! That's going to be one insufferable year because of all the puns.Just a joke and a play on words. In exactly two years it will be 2020 and as the saying goes...Hindsight is 2020.
Seriously, how is Tidux still doing this? He's been thoroughly debunked for like 4+ years. Yet he's still pretending to be an insider.
True. I guess I just struggle to wrap my mind around that type of incessant need for attention.
so... this is a tweet from ND animator
what is that supposed to mean?! i hope this isnt about last of us part 2 releasing in 2020...
Not sure about that, but there is absolutely 0 reason to take Tidux seriously in the slightest.
That one is quite easy to predict. Guerrilla is getting bigger, hiring like crazy and a lot of people who is joining the company have some expertise in shooting games.
*Inspects post with a microscope*
They just showed a commercial during the Fiesta Bowl featuring Crash, Sly, and Ratchet.

It just makes more sense to me that Sony know they have the PS5 launching in 2020 and they have made the call to delay the 2 games to be cross gen launch titles for both GOS, and TLOU.
DS is the only one where I'm not sure what's going to happen
imagine thinking it'll be a AAA game, from Japan Studio. Come on brehs. They don't do AAA.
Good post. And the same goes for Eidos Montreal and Guardians of the Galaxy after both Thief and Deus Ex MD bombed. For that reason, I wouldn't be surprised if Remedy's working on a Marvel game in the not so distant future. If Sony wanted to make another Marvel game then they'd be my first choice, since I think they'd benefit a lot from Sony's assistance and would slot right into Sony's lineup.
It'll probably be the last AAA game out of Japan Studio's internal teams for the foreseeable future, not including Gran Turismo titles.
Either way, I'd love it if Japan Studio were to focus on extremely high quality games like TLG; unique stuff that you don't really get from Western developers. There seemed to be such promise when Alan Becker took over there, but we haven't really seen the fruits of his efforts yet. Hopefully Astro Bot was the first of many.

Thank goodness I'm not the only person who sees that? I've come to realize that the narratives formed on gaming forums fall apart at the seams when applied to reality.
