Marvel Games Exec Calls Spider-Man PS4 the "'Iron Man' of Marvel Video Games"
- Thread starter Aokiji

Iron Man movie started off the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This Spiderman game is viewed as the game that will start off the Marvel games universe on consoles. Meaning there is more marvel games to come.
This is the most interesting property to take a shot at to me. They could take that in a ton of interesting directions.
Fucking amazing that so many people wanted a dude called "The Mandarin" to be played straight
Since Game B would need to work with Insomniac's Spider-Man, not whatever version would best fit their story. That, in turn, would mean Insomniac would have to work with the changes Game B or C would make to Spider-Man, or their versions of superhero B and C, etc. I know it could all work well together, of course, but I'd rather there be more freedom instead.
As in Iron Man was Marvel's big push to birth their cinematic universe.
Expect more big Marvel video games, essentially.
I know he doesn't mean it in a bad way - and there's a huge difference in budget, marketing, investment and perception for the quality of the products, but Spidey is technically the 3rd console product to be released under the refreshed Marvel Games brand identity - so it mildly sucks that they're throwing Telltale's Guardians and MVC Infinite under the bus.
Those were the Incredible Hulk and DareDevil of the non MCU.
Nah, Spider-Man PS4 is the Spider-man of the comics. Throw away that Iron Man comparison.
And Bill isn't really an executive, he's executive creative director on Marvel Games. Those are different. haha

I mean the movies and comics been doing it for a while, I am sure the video game industry could doe the same
I guess that's like Spiderman 3?
Maybe the Punisher movie?
Whichever is worse and doesn't count anymore.
I wonder what other independent studios Marvel and Sony would partner with to make more Marvel games?
Insomniac has a long track record with Sony, are there any others? I'm not sure of Sony would want to task one of their first parties to making a Marvel game unless they came clamoring to make one.

In here I learned people incorrectly believe Iron Man 2, 3 and The Incredible Hulk are bad films.

Eh those are different circumstances. TT's GotG was basically just a licensed skin over a TT game. & MvC: I was a (rushed) sequel to a series that already existed. This was the first true game built from the ground up to represent Marvel. SE's Avengers & Guardians of the Galaxy products are next (if they ever even come out. Maybe Nirolak has more news)
Marvel needs a Kevin Feige for games otherwise it will not be long before they make a misstep. I have very low expectations for Crystal Dynamics' Avengers game for example.
Insomniac did such a great job with Spider-Man that they could probably fill the Kevin Feige role.

Good for Marvel and fans of the MCU, but I'm praying this isn't the case. I'm beyond fatigued with the Marvel universe and really, really don't want mainstream, AAA studios investing all their resources in these.
Am I overreacting? Probably. I don't know,.

Captain America game, with God of war mechanics (shield) , that would be awesome
Or a very dark, third person shooter the punisher game. Mature only.
