It’s difficult to predict the success of some titles, especially those which haven’t had a chance to show up and strut their stuff. It’s even tougher to have blind faith in some developers and publishers, considering the sheer number of high-profile failures over the years. Yet Insomniac, and to an extent Sony (let’s not forget those problematic PC releases over the past few months), have defied that trend. It’s to a degree that many fans aren’t thinking over how many copies the sequel will sell – just that they can see it soon and hopefully play it this year.

From that perspective, they’re not too different from your average Zelda fan celebrating Tears of the Kingdom as a triumph and a reward for their years of waiting. There’s a good chance that Insomniac could have such a moment with Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, and it’s well aware of this. There’s a lot of pressure to deliver, but at the end of the day, its release will be another industry-defining moment for the PS5.

  1. Spider Man is my least favorite Marvel story. Hope they bring out more Guardians of the Galaxy 😉

  2. Just waiting for FFXVI to drop, then I'll get my hands on the PS5…and a new TV that utilizes all the PS5 features

  3. For all that is holy for the sake of immersion PLEASE vary the size and types of pedestrians/citizens and enemy types…..

  4. Industry defining moment? All the games PS has I don’t think Spider-Man will be industry defining. We haven’t even seen Wolverine yet.

  5. what a useless video………we got no info on anything period it was literally nothing?? i cant believe someone got paid for this video lmfao !!!

  6. Guys …is it really too much for me to even think that spidey 2 will have animations close to the amazing spider man 2 movie..i mean we dont really know how much a true ps5 exclusive can push boundaries..

  7. I live all video games but I think this game is gonna be goty. Sorry Zelda fans, take your cartoon kids game lol 😆

  8. I begged my wife forbthis reason lol she seen just how powerful the ps5 was and she was like "oh…ok I see why now lol " 🤣🤣🤣Marvels SpiderMan 2 we are waiting for this moment!!

  9. DS, RE4, FF16, SF6, TOTK, SM2. 2023 is by far the greatest year in gaming history

  10. Still waiting on some gameplay……
    Hell that’s all we’ve been doing since the reveal trailer😂

  11. Yeah until it's unplayable because it's a rushed piece of garbage like every other new release

  12. I think it's a little unfair to say Playstation has belted out hits left and right since it released the PS5. YES those are all amazing games, but 5 out of the 6 games you named were on PS4 too, so up until very recently there was nothing to really make you want to spend $500 on a PS5 if you already owned the PS4. Not to say a lot of people didn't, but there was no imperative

  13. Could you imagine if somehow carnage was in the game or at least the next villain?

  14. Finally got a reason to get a PS5 now this is coming out. Up to now pretty much all exclusives was coming to the PS4 so there was hardly any reason to get a PS5

  15. I really liked Spider-Man on PS4 but I'm still holding out for a PS5 slim or a PC port for SM2.

  16. Normally I don’t do this, but this is a game I will even preorder

  17. I'm really looking forward to the game but this video was pretty much 8 minute video of saying NOTHING of importance.

  18. I think there is a YouTube guy doing a social experiment on ….reddit …r/gift a PS5…I think if u gift it u will probably get a lot in return or something

  19. I know the 1st game is several years old now, but it is still kinda messed up to spoil the post credit sequence, especially considering that is one of the only unique twist the game has on the comics and the movies…

  20. Hopefully it does some new stuff. Not sure if will be "industry defining" otherwise… Unless you mean an industry doing a prettier version of the same thing over and over.

  21. I doubt it the first game was woke and treated peter like trash. I bet they'll make miles the center of the sequel. Miles morales sucks

  22. Meanwhile xbox has the almighty redfall ahh what a treasure of sorts
