MARVEL'S SPIDER-MAN: Something FANTASTIC FOUR Related Is Coming To Insomniac Games' PS4 Title

@BobGarlen - That's what I was thinking/hoping. Probably the Bagman suit though.

@auditore - No it’s not

I think too many of you movie universe fans don’t understand just how dumb & really pointless it is to do a video game universe

There is honestly zero appeal to it at all unless you have a bunch of smaller games like the size of Destiny packs. Not the level of AAA titles

A video game universe is just pointless

@Nebula - ok I will explain

You see we had Phase 1 marvel movies as a way to introduce the avengers but also build up interest in Avengers. Avengers would be an event level film

The only real event level game ever created was Super Smash Bros considering all the franchises that show up into the game

There’s the additive that video game stories could take up to 20 hours to flesh out & develop characters unlike film that has only 2 hours each film

There’s also the idea. Say you make a game universe like the MCU. A Cap game, Thor game, Hulk game, Iron Man game leading to an Avengers game. See the issue there is we have games of these heroes & we have the ultimate Avengers game in MUA1 which didn’t need any build up & had pretty much every major character in marvel in the game

Look at the Arkham series. Say there’s a Justice League game or a Superman game that takes place in that universe. Does it change anything? Not really. It doesn’t add anymore hype outside of “Rocksteady is creating a Superman/JL game”

And the most important reason is..... gaming is a single player narrative

Sure there are fun co op games but those games never really dive into the characters

Look at Batman, Snake, Mario, Kratos, Spider-Man, Master Chief, Marcus Fenoix, Joel & Elle, Nathan Drake, Lara Croft, Sonic, & many more. Their games focus a majority of the time on 1 character. Sure you may have something like GTA5 with multiple main characters but overall storytelling in gaming is at its superior when you focus on 1 or 2 characters with the second character not even being playing in regards to people like Elle & Boy

I don’t know. I just don’t see an appeal for a comic book game universe because it will only get overcomplicated & dull having to pay attention to continuity through a vast number of franchises

Which is another issue. I mean Nintendo takes forever putting out Mario & Zelda games so how many games do you guys think will be put out for these games? At most, a yearly release but that’s it. 1 game in the universe a year compared to how we have up to 2-3 MCU films a year

It’s just really over complicated & complex doing a game universe

Another major reason why it won’t work is we forget why the movies work

You see actors from different film series crossing over

With gaming, you don’t have that

Even with the DCAU, you had Batman. Then the team ended that & went to Superman & decided give Batman one more season. Then you had a smaller team from that work on Static. Then you had Batman Beyond. Then you had Justice League which was the only show they worked on. Then you had JLU

The DCAU worked because they stopped making new episodes of some of the shows they worked on to make a bigger show & the level of the shows kept getting bigger & bigger

You didn’t have new episodes of BTAS being made during JLTAS

@LEVITIKUZ - Nah man, it'd be cool.

@LEVITIKUZ - So youve never played Metal Gear games or Devil May Cry or Resident Evil? #gameuniverse #multipleleadcharacters

@LEVITIKUZ - quiet with that crazy talk, lol

@ATrueHero1987 - Still #TeamXbox though!

Not saying that's a bad thing, but... why? It might be my personal taste in games, but the Playstation has always had a ton of exclusives that interested me each generation, while the XBox had probably less than a handful over all generations.

@Poop - you know what I mean because it's all white with stick out like a sore thumb unlike the black suit
