Insomniac's Spider-Man Remastered heads to PC after years of PlayStation exclusivity



Coming over to the PC platform later this year is Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered, the updated version of Insomniac's 2018 hit. This is PlayStation's latest move in terms of bringing over their catalog of games to PC, with the game having previously only been available on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. A price was not specified, but the game will be available on both the Steam and Epic Games Store platforms. The remastered version featured all of the game's DLC, improved character models, and updated graphics across the board, along with 60fps support. Spider-Man Remastered will be out on August 12th.

I have to say I'm a bit surprised by some of these recent releases. I was sure they would put them all on the highest tier PS Plus service to compete with Game Pass instead of standalone PC ports.

I'm genuinely surprised at this, thought this would be the last game Sony would ever port to PC. True PS5 exclusives are looking like they're gonna be more and more scarce going forward. I'd probably sell mine if I had 100% confidence that my PC's PSU and GPU were going to last me another five or six years, but at least one of them is likely to give out before then.

Why buy a playstation at this point?
The only thing that comes to mind is Persona 5, neither that or Royal has escaped exclusivity just yet.

That said that has always been a problem with the Persona games in general. They have always for the most part have been Playstation exclusive.

Sega needs to take initiative. It doesn't make sense how almost all of their other franchises (Sonic, Yakuza, streets of rage, panzer dragoon, super monkey ball, puyo puyo,) are all multiplat, but when it comes to their second most popular (Persona) they like to be all wishy washy and keep it all to playstation.

I'm really glad I got a PS5 for this reason as I'm expecting it to outlast my (slighly more powerful) PC. It's actually the perfect combination with a Steam Deck (and Switch).

Yeah, but it's annoying to get one for most people, which means the used market price for PS4 isn't going down. :(
I just wanted to put Linux on a PS4 for fun.
PS4 has two markets, one for OFW consoles and the other for HEN consoles.

Since I can't run my PSN bought content on my hacked console I'll just play it on the spare PS4 (got it very cheap) and then sell when I'm done with it. It's a bit noisy although having it in vertical position seems to help it. :)

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
