Sony has a Spider-Man game coming this year as the big launch title for their new console so yeah, they're taking the opportunity to reinforce the Spider-Man brand along with the Playstation brand. It's not THAT dumb.

i cant see spidey staying on playstation. hes such a big selling point for the game, with his own special event and everything, it just sounds absurd i imagine whats really going to happen is spidey is a timed exclusive and will come out elsewhere later on, but the ps4 spidey outfit specifically will be exclusive to ps4 permanently if i cant play as spidey on pc im probably just not going to buy the game. i have a ps4 but this is a multiplayer-focused game and im not going to loving pay a subscription to play online when its free to do it on pc. so if they're gonna ask me to do that im just gonna skip the game. which sucks because it looks cool and spidey was my #1 pick for an extra hero

I just hope the single player stuff is worth a drat because I have zero desire to play online.

I’m the opposite. I just want to get into super hero shenanigans with people online, and show off our outfits. I need something to fill the Marvel Heroes sizes hole in my heart.

After a long day at work I just like to chill and take my time with games while listening to podcasts and surfing the web. Soo team based stuff doesn't really work for me.

All the online content they've shown off so far can be done with AI controlled team-mates that operate as stand-ins for the other characters you have. There's larger stuff that you have to play with other people, but I can't imagine it'll be much more than a few raid-type content.

Ars sure isn't impressed with the Avengers game.quote:As a tone-setting mission, this battle in San Francisco runs on PS4 Pro at a consistent 30fps refresh while serving up a delectable variety of explosive effects and detailed characters. Really, the whole thing looks much better than prior reveals—especially the titular heroes' faces, which no longer look like stunt doubles from the real-life Avengers films. But having actual control of this mission reveals a sluggishness to nearly every character's attacks. Black Widow's fisticuffs are the closest thing this game has to "snappy," with everyone else feeling like they've been hit by a ray of Kryptonite (yep, I'm conflating my comics-publisher canon on purpose there).

I know they already hosed up making a new Marvel Ultimate Alliance, but god drat if the current X-Men status quo wouldn't be absolutely perfect for a new X-Men Legends.

Avengers beta seems pretty cool? Still quite rough, but Jennifer Hale voices Maria Hill and Goose gets a mention. Photographer mode is a little bare. Animations seem way meatier. Some of the combat could be tighter, particular Iron Man, but he as so many options some of the standard abilities feel almost superfluous.

There's been some pretty strong rumours for a while that the first concrete information was coming at FanDome, I'm real curious to see what that game looks like, given that the idea is meant to be a GaaS type deal, where your objectives are to kill Superman, etc. Seems like it could be either insanely cool, or really terrible.

Generally Accepted Auditing Standards? I guess if you're Luthor's accountant killing Superman is probably at the top of the expenses reports. EDIT: Games as a Service. Right. I keep forgetting that's a "thing"

Sorry, it's a silly acronym (?) but it's the one I see people using all the time. Playing more of the Avengers Beta, I am really liking what they're doing with this game. Combat feels very thoughtful, which I didn't expect. One thing they do which I really like is that during boss battles, etc. your powers become sort of contextualised. So Hulk's charge, pick up and slam move becomes a unique grab animation when used against Abomination. Shirkelton fucked around with this message at 14:34 on Aug 7, 2020 |

Rocksteady heard the people excited to play as Superman and the Flash and Wonder Woman and NOW you can play as: Harley Quinn, Deadshot, and El Diablo. https://twitter.com/Prince__Kratos/status/1291732999290138624

Maybe Suicide Squad is like Dead by Daylight, where you're playing as the Suicide Squad and just trying to survive as Superman/Flash/Green Lantern/Wonder Woman casually knock you around and put you in prison.

Dan Didio posted:Like a reverse Hitman scenario. Yeah that is honestly what I was thinking of. You're given the task of taking down (x) and have to figure out how to manipulate things enough to actually do so. Like yeah Deadshot can shoot a kryptonite bullet but Superman is literally faster than bullets so you need a way to distract him first but without causing enough trouble that multiple heroes come or Waller gets pissed.. They could even have fun with it and be like "you need to figure out how to exploit this can of yellow spray paint to kill Green Lantern" or whatever. It probably won't be that but I like the idea of Hitman where the target is absolutely not someone you could just walk up and shoot.

Assuming that we will have an actual playable squad for this game, does this sound like a good list for it, let's assume 7 members, not counting Waller and Flagg. King Shark, Count Vertigo, Bronze Tiger, Captain Boomerang, Deadshot, Harley Quinn (I would like someone else, but I assume she is going to be in the game.) Then we need a more fodder member how about Copperhead.

The leaked list is in that tweet I posted. Deadshot, Harley, Captain Boomerang, El Diablo, King Shark, Cheetah, and Enchantress. Going in hard on the cast from the movie, which everyone makes fun of now. Rocksteady striking while the iron isn't even out.

As someone on Twitter pointed out, if you look closely at the eyes of the Superman in that image you can see cracks around the skin. Either Superman is getting some Kryptonian crows feet, or that’s a Bizzaro. Also seeing this game reminds me that they planted the seed for this game in a post credit sequence for Arkham Origins of all places.
