I got to admit I was wrong. Althought I am a huge insomniac fan (love Ratchet and Clank series) Spiderman 2 to this point unimpressed me. I was expecting big things considering this was developed exclusively for the PS5. I was not impressed until today.

The game has really been cleaned up in this short but sweet trailer. I am really impressed by the smooth transitions from the Maps to gameplay. Switching between the 2 characters are equally impressive. The few moments of game play shown are highly impressive. The Draw distance, the Lighting, the motion, etc are hitting the mark.

This maybe the new benchmark game for the current generation.

Looks like you're blind.

 

[Matsuchezz]

Looks way way better than anything else in the console realm. I don't like super hero games but i am tempted to buy it just for the eye candy

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

okay pony

 

[sendit]

Agreed. Loading screens should be banned for current Gen games. This game does it masterfully.

 

[M.W.]

Looks a lot like Spiderman 2018.

 

[Punished Miku]

If you like the first two games and want more this is it. I'm sure fans will be pleased.

 

[Pedro Motta]

Looks a lot like Spiderman 2018.

It's a direct sequel you numb nuts. What did you expect? To play as Batman in a Spider-Man game?
This is GoW: Ragnarok all over again.

It's a sequel to Spider-Man 2018, what did you expect? Iron Man or something?

How's it look now?

That's just VRS 2.0.

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Looks so great I'm sure Jaffe will call it DLC.

 

[MirageMew2]

Yeah the density alone is a huge upgrade over the original not to mention the draw distance.

 

[Raonak]

Looks very good. lighting, IQ, smoothness, level of detail and density is crazy.

clears that highly polished sony bar we take for granted.

 

[Del_X]

How's it look now?

Like poverty

True. Needs to be on a sub.

Y'all need to put some respect on Insomniac's name

 

[adamsapple]

That's just VRS 2.0.

Touche

 

[Fbh]

Graphically it looks nice in some spots.
Still seems like the same ps3 era formula with some SSD powered quality of life improvements though.

Will pick it up when it's $30.
But a lot of people here just care about graphics so I'm sure they'll be pleased

Insomiac: The Best Place to Work™

 

[March Climber]

This looked..well, spectacular. My only gripe with this footage is that it feels rushed for some reason. I don't mean the graphics or gameplay, just the trailer itself was going too fast. All of the trailers in that conference after the first two felt like this 1.2x to 1.5x speed and this guy feels like he's rushing through his explanations of the mechanics, because they have to hurry up and get to the next game presentation.

 

[RoboFu]

I don't have anything else to add but I just wanted to post this awesome gif...

 

[Zok310]

Gtfo, that shit blew me away

Why not just enjoy the game? I dont think anyone is expecting this to be bad or talking shit. It just looks similar. If thats all you want you will likely get it and then some. Insomniac has a better handle on Spider Man than Marvel at this point. Should be a fun blockbuster.

 

[GigaBowser]

Daytime looks muddy and kinda crud but night times look incredibubble like Morales and Batman Arkham Knight

I think most of the good AAA devs have figured out rain, night time, and snow effects. The true next gen test now will be how someone can make a clear blue sky sunny daytime(with no overcast tricks or matrix filter) appear next gen.

Cause the game isn't out yet.

Looks fire, really.

I thought I was done with Spiderman...like I've been Spidermanned out. But this latest showing changed my mind.

 

[M.W.]

This is GoW: Ragnarok all over again.

Hope not, Ragnarok was ass.

 

[jroc74]

I just posted in the trailer thread its wild how some ppl were doubting Insomniac.

This game is gonna be a certified banger.

 

[Pedro Motta]

Hope not, Ragnarok was ass.

 

[Loxus]

Sadly you for you OP.
There isn't enough crow to eat because of the sheer amount that has to eat crow.

 

[Gamerguy84]

Wow this looks amazing. Traversing the city looks faster with web slinging and web wings.

Switching between Miles and Peter is almost instant like it should be. Really looks phenomenal. My TV broke just in time. Now I have an excuse to get another 55 inch for my room. Had a Vizio V but 2 days ago it went crazy.

Oct 20 just a month away.

 

[Crayon]

Yeah it looked really good. This is a good candidate for a 'bigger, badder, better' approach to a sequel. That's what they did for God of war and horizon. It's not ground breaking or anything but those are some of the better games out there so you want to balance adding new things with getting a sequel out the door asap.

The eating crow part I see with the graphics, though. This is going to end up looking seriously good on screen.

[Nvzman]

Seeing confirmation of the classic suit returning immediately makes me hyped to play it, simply can't beat perfection!

 

[Flabagast]

Game seems ultra boring. Still the same Ubisoft map filled of tons of icons leading to mindless activities.

Although I am a Sony fan I think I will never play it.

Yeah how dare they reuse the same buildings in New York! They should have had buildings from Seattle scattered in there too!

I still would have preferred if they skipped Miles Morales and spent the entire time making a Spiderman 2 that was more of a generational leap.. same with Gran Turismo. I was probably expecting more a Horizon ZW -> FW level visual improvement.

Said it in the other thread, but the way they described it sounded like "hey look same but with faster loading times between characters, a bigger map, and loads of costumes!"
