Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Has Officially Gone Gold One Month Away from Release

One more month... Can't wait!

Also need to clear BG3, 70 hours in already, but lots of things to do still...

Gold now, GOTY soon

I love goooooooooooooold.

I can't get into the Spiderman games especially the cheesy cut scenes but I am glad so many people like them. The graphics look great though. Will be a huge seller for PS5.

This will be my first day one game since buying my PS5! Half the reason I bought one! Gives me just enough time to get Starfield and the new fifa out of my system!!

Going gold certainly doesn’t mean even half of what it used to w/ the inevitable patches and likely dlc but it’s still a nice tradition to keep alive I suppose.

We are gold im platinum.its cool that marvel 🕷spiderman went gold.one of the best games ever.new york represents.word up son

Curious to see when the review embargo will lift. I guess atleast a week in advance Sony seems to be very confident.

Well deserved Insomniac. Can't wait for this one. I hope everyone at Insomniac gets a well deserved break after October 20.

@Americansamurai1 Predicting 9s across the board and a metacritic score between 88 and 91.

Roll on next month!

@rjejr Insomniac are wizards in the gaming world so I have every confidence when their games go gold it means it.

@rjejr I'll never forget when Cyberpunk went gold...and was then delayed a month, then launched in a terrible state. Since then, that phrase doesn't hold the same weight in my opinion

@GeneticMutation "when their games go gold it means it"

See comment above on what "going gold" even means anymore. 😂

@rjejr going gold it means its ready for release (and ready for the process of making phyical copies), as for Cyberpunk 2099, yeah that was a mess when it first came out and it shouldn't have gone gold they should have delayed it but thats a rare occurrence and shouldn't sour you on this excellent news!!

@theSpectre yeah i agree with those scores, with one of the playstation hating sites giving it a 6.

@Americansamurai1 It'll be from those disengenuous Xbox sites that gave Starfield a 10 out 10 for the fact that it's an Xbox exclusive.

HYPED! God Of War Ragnarok went gold about a month before release and the review embargo lifted about a week before the game launched! It seems the same will happen here!

That’s dope but it’s only a matter of time before the leaks get out and people on the internet will try to spoil it for others. I might have to go on a media blackout

@Pranwell common theme with every past goty is pre PR. Spiderman 2 has had so much PR its crazy. Starfield and Zelda pretty much had none before release.

Been playing Miles Morales the last few days, 7 hours in and I’m 48% done with the main story. Been doing a lot of side content around the city as well.

Feels like a perfect little appetizer while I wait for the main course in October!

Pre Order is in.

The challenge now is to finish BG3 before release.

@pyrrhic_victory Cyberpunk was an absolute disaster but I don't think there's a single game on the market these days that has the gold edition be the final edition. They should call it "going bronze" or some such. At least some devs are honest about "early access".

@Pditty1980 It doesn't sour me on the excellent news, it's just that I'm old enough to remember when games went gold, they were gold, see Gamecube, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2 etc. Now a game isn't "gold" until the "complete" edition comes out. Mario Kart 8 went gold like a decade ago and it's still getting new content and won't be "gold" until the Switch 2 reelase.

So what exactly does "gold" mean now? It actually means "our publisher says we have to release the game on this date so this is the build we're putting out and we'll patch it and add content as we go". So what is there to celebrate? 🤷‍♂️
