Alejandro SegoviaGUEST
It gets to really stand alone without any connection whatsoever.
Sebastion MauldinHOST
Which is why I'm sort of glad, you know, I know we're not talking about Marvel here, but I'm glad Spider-Man is like a movie character only.
Sebastion MauldinHOST
You know, like, we see him only in movies, and I think it's important to have those tentpoles.
Sebastion MauldinHOST
Like, Daredevil feels like he's core TV character.
Alejandro SegoviaGUEST
I was like, I don't know where that confidence came from.
Alejandro SegoviaGUEST
They probably thought that Concord and Fair Games and Marathon were enough to get people happy.
Alejandro SegoviaGUEST
And the only great thing we saw at that time was the gameplay for Spider-Man 2.
Alejandro SegoviaGUEST
But even then, that was muted because we already knew about Spider-Man.
Atomic SquidHOST
And...
Atomic SquidHOST
The numbers, at least compared to Insomniac's previous past games with Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2 and the Miles Morales Spider-Man games, they actually did better.
Atomic SquidHOST
um outside of playstation's market than they did within playstation's market and uh this game wolverine game
speaker_6NARRATOR
actually is tanking um and the
TaylorHOST
I mean, because that's the other thing.
TaylorHOST
Some people want to play certain games from Xbox or certain games from PlayStation.
TaylorHOST
Like, for example, the Spider-Man games when they first came out.
TaylorHOST
If you didn't have a PlayStation, you couldn't play them.
AsmongoldHOST
After careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to step away from collaborating with Kojima Productions on his project, Fizzant.
AsmongoldHOST
We continue to have great admiration for Hideo Kojima's vision for the game.
AsmongoldHOST
Our relationship remains strong after three decades of industry-leading, genre-defining creative cooperation, and we look forward to continued close collaboration with Hideo Kojima and his award-winning independent studio in the future.
AsmongoldHOST
PlayStation's statement presents Fizzant Split as a mutual step away after careful consideration with future collaboration expected.
AsmongoldHOST
Kojima stated, PlayStation unexpectedly notified cancellation mid-June 2026, forcing a three-month search for a new partner.
AsmongoldHOST
Oh my god, Xbox swoops in to save Kojima's stealth action game Fizzant after PlayStation tried to cancel it.
AsmongoldHOST
Hideo Kojima's Fizzit moves from PlayStation to Xbox as Death Stranding creator, plots TV and film projects with new publishing partner.
AsmongoldHOST
Oh.
Darren JamesHOST
I love Insomniac games.
Darren JamesHOST
The Spider-Man Universe games that they've put out have been fantastic.
Darren JamesHOST
They've been a lot of fun to play.
Darren JamesHOST
So when Insomniac Games eventually announced that they were making a Wolverine game, you couldn't help but be excited and enthusiastic about the idea of a Wolverine game.
TimHOST
I want more Insomniac stuff.
TimHOST
Of course, I really like Spider-Man games, and I want more of that specifically.
TimHOST
But the last thing I'd...
TimHOST
But it added to the heartbreak, and we'll talk about some of that as we close the show, of another studio that's now struggling because the game didn't do well because of public outcry about dumb stuff.

TimHOST
Also
DanHOST
could
TimHOST
have cost less if Wolverine was going to be a Spider-Man style open world game.
TimHOST
And it sounds like there's some stuff people are finding that hint that maybe it was kind of designed that way, but they trimmed it down.
Zach DeanHOST
I'm very...
Zach DeanHOST
I think I said this on the last variant, which was I played Spider-Man PS4, and it got me wanting to read Batman comics.
Zach DeanHOST
Right.
Zach DeanHOST
So I started New 52, Scott Snyder, Batman, which I've read like...
KevinHOST
because then i'd be right if there is more like no one played them yeah i don't think there's oh i don't think there's more no if there's wolverine stuff he's in other games yeah
FalconHOST
yeah and insomniac knows what they're doing man yes they're gonna do it i do hope i do hope it's as good as their spider-man games that's kind of my one concern i don't know because it is gonna have to be different mechanics Like, obviously, in order for it to be, you know, Wolverine, it has to be fairly different in certain ways.
FalconHOST
Because the combat in the Spider-Man Insomniac games, it's very well-tuned for Spider-Man.
FalconHOST
I think it feels like Spider-Man in the way that it should.
FalconHOST
You
ErichHOST
couldn't have combat like that in a Wolverine game.
FalconHOST
Wolverine is like...
FalconHOST
Like...
Russell MoranGUEST
Ultimate destruction controls like a dream.
Russell MoranGUEST
And I also, just to put this into perspective, I was playing this at the same time I was replaying Spider-Man PS4, and it was really interesting seeing what was the same, like, even though those games are literally a decade apart, but seeing what was drastically different.
Russell MoranGUEST
And one of these problems shows up within the first five minutes of gameplay.
Russell MoranGUEST
And that is when you are jumping at the Hulk as the Hulk, you might not land where you want to.
ChrisHOST
You know, if I'm just on the backswing of my clap, that should not be able to stop people from attacking me.
ChrisHOST
And yet they found a way to make that annoying.
Russell MoranGUEST
yep yep and you know I really love ultimate destruction but I also do not think it's like a perfect game there has not been a game where I truly feel like the Hulk whereas when I played Batman Arkham Asylum I felt like Batman or if when I played spider-man ps4 I felt like spider-man there has not been a Hulk game like that
ChrisHOST
and Any astute listeners here might be noticing we haven't noticed anything about playing just as Bruce because you pretty much don't.
Analytic DreamzHOST
The reason why I say that is because me as a superhero nerd, I was already not going to play this because I had my own gripes with Insomniac.
Analytic DreamzHOST
They did not finish the Spider-Man 2 DLC.
Analytic DreamzHOST
But when you look at the Wolverine game in totality, I did not have hands on time.
Analytic DreamzHOST
But from a masses perspective, apparently the game is solid and does not deserve the hate that it's getting.
Analytic DreamzHOST
A lot of people blew that out of proportion, in my opinion.
Analytic DreamzHOST
Wolverine's heightened scents is like a thing that needs to be obviously showcased.
Analytic DreamzHOST
the hand-holding from Insomniac makes sense because, fun fact, I did play all the Spider-Man games.
Analytic DreamzHOST
Obviously, I'm a huge Spider-Man fan.
LonoHOST
I think it's fine.
LonoHOST
I don't think it's as good as Spider-Man 1.
LonoHOST
It's probably, for me, I'm probably going to end up feeling the same way I did about this as Spider-Man 2.
LonoHOST
Like, this is good.
LonoHOST
It's got issues.
1 HR 31 MINS LATER
LonoHOST
I get it.
LonoHOST
Forget Me Not with a $2 Super Chat.
LonoHOST
Is Yotei the best sequel of PlayStation First Party this gen? Forbidden West, Spider-Man 2, Ragnarok, Yotei.
