Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales [PS4, PS5, PC]

[Unknown Soldier]

"Just". Lol. This is smaller than spiderman 1 but itll likley still be bigger than many other full priced titles is the irony. Lost legacy was a more complete experience than re3 remake imo

Oh I agree.

I still can't believe that this is coming out as a launch title. So happy. Five more months.

Part of what appeals about this particular game is that I know very little about Miles Morales. I love the idea of his own unique powers like electricity (ala inFamous 1 and 2) and invisibility. I also like a good superhero origin story and this is one I can go into blind, unlike other superhero's who have been done to death. I like for for the Tom Holland Spider-Man movies, they just completely skipped over that.

Plus invisibility implies some decent stealth aspect. Spider-Man is so a natural stealth character but it was inhibited on Spider-Man PS4, once in combat the enemies instinctively knew where you were which felt wrong. I felt the lack of viable stealth in Spider-Man PS4 was one of the very few things they got wrong.

if you want, you can catch up quickly by watching "into the spider-verse".

I thought it was great.

Was going to say the same and add "immediately". It's the best Spiderman film by far.

I've tried to watch this twice, I just cannot get into it at all. Once the other verse Spidies start appearing, some are just absurd and I can't stick with it.

 

[iroboto]

Oh lol. Ok. No worries. You’re good to go for MM game

It's called the multiverse for a reason. I loved that they even brought back the Spider-man of the 60/70's at the end. That was funny. Really awesome Spider-man movie.

I can see you didn't follow the comics much. The Ultimate Marvel Universe is where this all began. All the Marvel characters got the Ultimate treatment and so new characters were born. Miles Morales was one such character in Ultimate Spider-man.

I actually have most of the anthology comics somewhere on a HDD in my cupboard.

Gameloft did a copyright strike on Sony's Spider-man Miles Morales. The video is still missing after a day.

Oh, this is just weirdness... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gameloft

I suspect some sort of automated copyright bot or subcontracting gone awry.

 

[cheapchips]

Gameloft made a Spider-man Unlimited mobile game. It's likely related to that, however it actually happened.

I'd imagine Sony is not very happy about this. They deserve a good spanking.

Marvel owns the rights for video games.
Sony only owns the movie rights for anything live action over 44 minutes in length.

I'm sure neither side is pleased.

I think Sony owns the rights for the Spider-man universe i.e. Spider-man, Venom, Gwen, Vulture, Norman Osborne etc. and not Marvel hence why Marvel almost cut Spider-man from the Marvel universe last year until the agreement was reached about the movie rights and costs. Or did Sony sell the rights back to Marvel because I am not aware of that?

 

[BRiT]

Marvel only sold film rights to Sony. Marvel still owns the game rights and comic rights and merchandise rights.

Is it considered a movie if the game has over 44 minutes of cut-scenes?

 

[London Geezer]

It is a bit strange that only Sony can use Spiderman to such an extent even in games?
