These are FANTASTIC NEWS !

Awesome, I would like Insomniac to alternate between Ratchet and Spiderman.

Hopefully its as good as the PSone games. Those were awesome.

I hope the costume remains the same, it looks fantastic.

I'm just happy to hear it's in the hands of a capable and appropriate developer with a significant track record. Glad it's not another superbot ond hopefully not rushed like every game that was given to nihilistic.

Knowing Insomniac's track record with Ratchet & Clank, I am entirely sure that this Spiderman game will be a very solid one. Just thinking about how awesome the platforming can be just hypes me up more for the game.

I am also sure they'll make more Ratchet & Clank games in the future. The one this year sold really well and it got a nice reception from many gamers.

Let me ask you something: when you go to McDonald's and get a Big Mac, do you think McDonald's is "anti-consumer"? I mean, the Big Mac is exclusive to them. Burger King doesn't get to make Big Macs.

Or when you watch Netflix and see Daredevil or Orange is the New Black, do you say they're "anti-consumer"? Daredevil and OITNB are exclusive to Netflix. Hulu can't air them. 

Why do people say that exclusivity is "anti-consumer"? I thought competition was pro-consumer? Well guess what? Competition implies exclusivity. Companies want to provide something their competitor doesn't have. This is what makes you choose them over the other. Otherwise, you're not really "competing" if you offer all the same stuff.

Are you upset just because it's Spider-Man? So, because it's a Spider-Man game, these are "anti-consumer measures"? What if it was Ratchet and Clank? Same studio making the game. Exclusivity status would still be the same. But when Insomniac decides to make a different game, it's "anti-consumer"? What sense does that make? The moment they make something other than Ratchet and Clank, it's "anti-consumer"? You're just being whiny.

Sony and Insomniac don't own the IP. Acitivision could make a Spider-Man game or license the IP out to a plethora of other studios. But because Sony is the one publishing the game instead of Activision this time around, with a studio that they've published other franchises with (Ratchet and Resistance), it's "anti-consumer"? That makes absolutely no sense.

It's not like xbox or nintendo can't make their own exclusives about other comic book characters. There's nothing anti-consumer about it.  Exclusives aren't anti-consumer. 

I was on Reddit the other day, and somebody said that this move "took away their choice" and that "they don't want me to play their game". 

It's like....nobody is stopping you from choosing to play the game. It is readily availble to you. Sure, there's a barrier for entry ($350 for a PS4), but what's stopping you from crossing that barrier? Other than you're own stubbornness? 

"I bought console X, but game Y is on a different console. They're so anti-consumer! I guess they don't want my money!" It's like everybody forgot how business works. 

Sounds nice!
But I also want to see more Ratchet & Clank games especially now after the recent release of Ratchet & Clank PS4 which proved again how amazing the Ratchet & Clank series is.
