What does going gold exactly mean these days? That discs are ready to be printed?

With day 1 and additional patches, games are hardly "done" when they say that it goes gold.

I've got a Spidey PS4 Pro pre-ordered from Target. Can't wait. Only issue is that Destiny Forsaken comes out before this game and if its any good, I won't be touching Spider for a few months after, which might not be bad considering how often most games are patched now.

How you gonna thank PlayStation before Marvel in the tweet? Marvel are the ones that let you choose Spider-Man.

So the story is 1000% true

Sony FP has the best pipeline and support system in the business to create big story-based games. Some people don't realize all of the support a publisher can give a developer, and that's true of every major publisher for every major game.

Marvel approached Sony, wanting them to do one of their characters right with a big first-party story game. They wanted to work with one of the developers Sony FP works with frequently, and even mentioned us by name to Sony as a developer who they felt particularly fit.

Sony approached us, we were interested (obv!), and they told us Marvel wanted us to pick which hero we most wanted to play with. We picked Spider-Man (obv!).


All real, all how it happened, no ties to any other deal or circumstance.

There's a lot to be thankful for.

Isn't this pretty early for going Gold? Awesome.

It's pretty much in line with other games. Horizon Zero Dawn went gold on January 31st and released on February February 28th. GoW went gold on March 22nd and released on April 20th. And Uncharted 4 actually went gold on March 18th and was released May 10th.

Thumbs up! I am ready!

(I am actually not ready. I need to beat Octopath Traveler first.)

That is such a silly complaint. Not only is Sony footing the bill, but Marvel approached Sony for this project and Sony could have chosen anyone (including a first party studio), instead they chose Insomniac. Insomniac has just as much if not more reason to thank Sony than Marvel in this situation.

And that's fine. You can thank Sony for their support and Marvel for the opportunity. It's all down to Marvel realistically. Sony in this case is legit just a name on a check. None of this happens without Marvel.

This just reinforces my point. It's all down to Marvel.

Broke as fuck but day one.

Last Spider-Man animated series I saw was '94 one. What else should I watch?

The only reason Marvel is needed to make a Spider-Man game is because they own the Spider-Man IP.

Insomniac and Sony are the ones who have done the work.

Wow, after all this time waiting for the game; as of today, it's finally done!

I'm beyond excited to play it and I know there's going to be plenty of surprises and stuff that's not been spoiled or revealed yet!

The money always goes first. They get to hoist the trophy first and now they get the first mention on tweets.

Anyway, congrats Insomniac. Going Gold feels werid to me these days cause I know they're still in the studio working on day one patch day.

What is your point of your posts? Are you mad that Insomniac thanked Sony in their tweet?

July to September is three months, so it seems early. Before you realize it's the very end of July and the game's out in early September.

I'm not angry that they thanked Sony, I'm just upset Sony gets the first thanks. Sony deserves recognition for taking on a licensed property and treating it as their own, but Marvel deserves the most thanks for making the whole thing happen.
