Damn Japan gave Spider-Man a higher score than Mario?! Tf?!

-Foxtrot226d ago

I know right

Famitsu, of all people

goldwyncq226d ago

Japan loves Spider-Man so much he might as well be their national superhero.

FinalFantasyFanatic225d ago

Japanese Spider man is a thing anyway, I wonder why they don't try to do a big game with franchises like Kamen Rider or Super Sentai, they have plenty for material to make massive games for them, but then again, those franchises are relatively unknown in predominately English speaking countries.

DarXyde226d ago

Spider-Man is God tier in Japan.

DarXyde224d ago

garos82,

You really miss the point of the comment.

Charlieboy333225d ago (Edited 225d ago )

Well, Mario is the same game from 30 years ago......except now he turns into an elephant instead of a racoon. Amazing stuff.

Nice to see a 4 person scoring high giving it more credit than one.
Spider man 10—10— 9—9.
This doesn’t say a game is better than other just that the 4 reviewers had fun with it, it’s all up to you to try it or not depending on your taste it might be amazing or trash

Eonjay226d ago

I doubt either will be trash given those reviews. There may be a difference between which you have more fun with though.

1Victor226d ago

Yeah it’s all about taste and they’re two completely different games that shouldn’t be equated because of scores.

gold_drake226d ago

oh wow, it scored higher than Mario wonders , very nice

eagle21225d ago

Spider Man 2 just went back up a point on Metacritic! The last game to go up a point was Tears Of The Kingdom!

This is bad for them as we know they were already in marvel hell with there schedule but now they are never getting out with these sales.

Some poor sob over there is like hey can we do infamous remaster collection? then gets yelled at thrown to a desk made to work on spiderman 3 or some shit for the the next 3 years.

This also gave sweet baby inc more support they helped with the sotry and she hulk aka marry jane so why not make the next spiderman game with gwen but her powers only work after she attends lgbqt rallies fear the power of queer right's bad guys.

Just had a thought make a new super hero with the power of rainbows that come out of the wrist jerk of men to supercharge the attack.

Abnor_Mal2d ago

Just making up bullsht off the top of yer head huh?

andy852d ago (Edited 2d ago )

"These sales" like it's a tiny number? It's sold what Spiderman 1 did on the PS4 in the same timeframe and that was labelled a huge success and there was 100 million PS4s out there at that time...compared to 50m PS5. Selling the same amount is nothing short of amazing. What a strange post

just_looken2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Wow sound the trumpit defend them asap right?

I know 2023 was along time ago but there was a ransomware attack remember?
https://www.polygon.com/240...

So yeah they are marvel game maker slaves

"these sales" means these sales there could have been a slight tiny glimmer of hope they might make something else instead of another spiderman game with the same combat same map same dei story but nope they are now defiantly going to make another one.

and yes sweetbabyinc helped with the story/characters
https://sweetbabyinc.com/

But i get it everyone loves the nerfed bitch version of parker sense very few played/watched anything before the Spectacular days were over.

“…make a new super hero with the power of rainbows that come out of the wrist jerk of men to supercharge the attack.”

Wow! Anyways…

@Just_lookin

LOL

What did I just read? This news is hitting you hard. I just wish I could watch your face as you typed your homophobic rant. Also, maybe an English class would be time well spent.

On Topic:
Congrats to Insomniac.

Hofstaderman2d ago

House of Mouse be looking at that upcoming Blade game with certain expectations.....

romulus232d ago

If we look past the fact you're just making up a bunch of BS, we can see very clearly your comment is immature and reeks of insecurities. It's pure trolling and adds nothing to the conversation so just give it a rest.

VersusDMC2d ago

Why would insomniac want to do a infamous remaster collection if Sucker Punch are the original developers?

just_looken2d ago

A round of applause for everyone here

I give links i speak the truth but of course defend defend defend

I know they did not make infamous but all this team has done is the same dam ip except one great ratchet/clank game that we will never get a squeal or any dlc

But i get it you all want spiderman every year then a half ass marvel mobile game every 2nd year.

Again any real spiderman fan knows how muich they changed the charecter/lore/powers for the modern audiance if this was the real spiderman he would have radioactive blood like until the mid 2013's and kill marry jane.

Amn the next game from this "studio" is going to have so many dei / microtrancactions in it oof

Philaroni2d ago

Is that you Obsucre? Assuber?

outsider16242d ago

@just looken

Yeah i want another spiderman. So???

If rocksteady can make 3 Batman games. Sucker punch with 3 infamous,

Why can't Insomniac have 3 Spiderman games.

Thank God you're the minority.

mkis0072d ago

Acting like dev's aren't tied to a franchise for a while. Gears for Coalition, Halo for 343, Turn 10 has forza, playground has forza... Insomniac making 3 Spiderman games so far (with a ratchet in between fyi) doesn't even register as enough let alone too many. They are making the games they want to. It was not forced upon them.

Why would they want out of this success? Most devs would do anything for sales like this. Do you not have pride in the work you do?

MrDead2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

"This also gave sweet baby inc more support they helped with the sotry and she hulk aka marry jane so why not make the next spiderman game with gwen but her powers only work after she attends lgbqt rallies fear the power of queer right's bad guys."

Crazy right-wing snowflakes like Tim Pool have broken you with outrage media and "fear of the other". Tater Tots need to go outside and live in the real world, don't be scared... unless you're just projecting and this is some sort of Steven Crowder or Nick Fuentes situation, it's ok to be confused about you're attraction to the same sex, just go with it and you'll find you will be a happier person.

BlackOni1d 23h ago

This is the most incel fake outrage sad shit I've seen all morning.

Congrats to making yourself look like an absolute tool while inexcusably and unnecessarily attacking the LGBTQ community.

On topic, congrats to Insomniac. Amazing game, amazing experience, and makes me hopeful for the new Wolverine Game. Would love to also see a Storm or Captain Marvel game.

Michiel19891d 19h ago

why the hell would insomniac work on an infamous remaster collection? They are one of the most talented studios in the world and you want them to do remasters?

3 spider man games. Did they redo those too?

With a game called Spider-Man and made by Insomniac………..is anyone really surprised??? Congrats to them on their continued excellence in game crafting.

Congrats to insomniac on another hit showing proof that it was a right move to be acquired by Sony unlike others developers getting closed or afraid of going on the chopping block.

My dude, insomniac was already hit with layoffs.

I wonder how Wolverine will do once released?

Hofstaderman2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Ummmm....maybe even better? We guaranteed a decent Wolverine game and with the success of Xmen 94 the franchise has now entrenched itself with a younger audience. My kids stopped watching 94 and went back to the OG series and they love it.

DarXyde2d ago

Not as well as Spider-Man, I would think. I think it still does great, but based on the footage we weren't supposed to see yet, Spider-Man seems more accessible (not to disregard he's also just more popular than Logan).

But who knows? If the game drops in close enough proximity to Deadpool and Wolverine and/or a new season of X-Men '97, we could be surprised.

Cacabunga2d ago

Wolverine will be a much more mature game.. also popularity wise spiderman is bigger.
On the other hand it might attract players who do not like spiderman kind of super heroes.

I enjoyed xmen origins Wolverine on PS3 very much it had great gameplay!

MagUk1d 22h ago

To be honest I brought the original spider man. While the game play mechanics were excellent and very enjoyable I was put off by how childish the story felt, I probably only played it for a couple of hours at most before it got way too cringy for me.

ChasterMies1d 20h ago

Spider-man makes more money from licensing than any other comic book character. So don’t expect Wolverine to sell as well.

Cacabunga1d 16h ago (Edited 1d 16h ago )

Wolverine will target a completely different audience

Boycott EA trends on X as community savages FC 24

Well if people don't buy their shit then they ain't gonna be a crack dealer for long aren't they.

anast17d ago

This is like telling a junkie to stop being a junkie.

Xzila1118d ago

they manipulated the pack weight and admitting it on twitter

Kaozz197918d ago (Edited 18d ago )

Stop buying the fucking game! It is no secret that the game is based around opening packs that need to be bought with real money if you want to be competitive. Yes I know, you have the chance to get the cards without investing real money, but that is a real grind and you still may never get the cards you want. This is not new and it will not change if people keep buying the game/packs.

TheColbertinator18d ago

Stop buying the game. EA won't make any more improvements and will charge full price again for new roster updates and UT.

i surprised to see Fifa 24 here for free for PlayStation plus am sure people are still buying the game with how big the Fifa games are.

VersusDMC30d ago

Especially with the Euro cup coming up in june and it still selling as it was the 2nd best selling game for March in the UK. Big soccer competitions usually get me to play some FIFA(or FC now).

outsider162430d ago

God damnit! I had just bought eafc24 on sale last month..

Cacabunga30d ago

they already gave FIFA23 last year, no surprise.
i do not have 24, I am still playing 23 I like the World Cup mode.
Ghostrunner 2 looks good, reminds me somehow of Mirror Edge.

CantThinkOfAUsername30d ago

It works for EA since it drives more people to try the game and get trapped in the casin... Ultimate Team cards.

Christopher30d ago

It came out over 6 months ago and most of its income now is MTX. Not surprising IMHO.

Abear2130d ago

Exactly! Nobody is buying it so they give it away and get a little boost of mtx, this is what these glorified rental services gets you

Tunic and ghost runner are damn good. Solid month.

monkey60230d ago

Yeah I'm happy with those 2. I didnt play Tunic when I had gamepass so ill be glad to finally give it a go.
I'm also amazed they still find ways to give Destiny 2 away. But at least its an added game and not one of the main titles

Tacoboto30d ago

Tunic was such an incredible experience, I'd instantly recommend it to anyone wanting a more old-school figure-it-out type of game.

The music alone is very peaceful and calming and balances well against the more strict combat

monkey60230d ago

I remember loving the demo for it but just hadn't got around to getting the full game yet.

shinoff218330d ago

I thought tunic was pretty cool. Didn't care much for Ghostrunner

Einhander197230d ago

Four games including one of the best selling and most popular sports games and you get to keep them as long as you have a subscription to the basic tier. This is an extremely high value month

What does games with gold give this month? I'm sure if anything at all, it's just a bunch of stuff that has already been on game pass for years.

Tacoboto30d ago

Your troll attempt is six months late to the party.

Einhander197230d ago

Oh pardon me, they changed the name to game pass core so Phil could talk up some inflated numbers even after they said they weren't going to share numbers anymore.

Tacoboto30d ago

Why is this relevant in an article about PS Plus anyway?

You're spamming for the sake of spamming with a troll post over something Microsoft did away with half a year ago.

northpaws30d ago

This line up and I still see people complain about it at the blog.playstation.com... gamers these days...

I don't play all of them, but an amazing month!!

MWeaver58930d ago

I have everything I want, but I am still overjoyed to see Tunic make the list. It's such a charming love letter to games of the past, and something anyone who enjoyed gaming in the '90s should absolutely check out. I mean, it even allows you to create an in-game manual that is reminiscent of those you'd read on the ride home.
