Activision and Beenox revealed the very first official screenshot for The Amazing Spider-Man game tie-in these days on the official Facebook page and, sadly, it’s not as action-packed as we had hoped. That’s not to say it does not look excellent – the suit is nicely detailed to match what we’ve seen in earlier shots, but I just wish there was much more to appear at.

Thankfully, the trailer that was released a month or so ago does reveal fairly a bit far more than this easy nonetheless shot. If you haven’t seen that specific trailer yet you can check it out beneath considering that were in a pretty trailer-y mood right now. If Activision and Beenox don’t really feel like giving us some cool artwork I guess we’ll just preserve staring at what we’ve already got.

The Incredible Spider-Man hits theaters July 3rd, 2012 and the game will land for Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, DS and 3DS around the same time.

According to PlayStation France CEO Philippe Cardone, Sony will “probably be the last to announce something” about the next-generation PlayStation (most would assume “PS4″), following Nintendo and Microsoft.

I’ve been saying this for a although, but I’m no official spokesperson, so possibly it’s a lot more reassuring to hear from the company rather than a raving lunatic.

Sony believes that Nintendo is under much more pressure to launch new hardware, due to the rapid decline of the Wii. Despite the fact that there are plenty of rumors about the PS4, Cardone says “I couldn’t tell you anything…the Wii is pressed for time since it is in decline. In our case, we have a lot less pressure. We had been the final to leave the PS3, we will almost certainly be the final to announce a thing.”

Microsoft’s future plans/”Xbox 720″ shenanigans have also been discussed as of late, with rumors about a large reveal at E3 2012. Sony has previously mentioned that it would be “undesirable” for Microsoft to announce its next console prior to they get their chance, but that doesn’t seem to fit their original vision for the PS3, according to SCE chairman Kaz Hirai.

“I’ve always mentioned a ten-year life cycle for PS3, and there is no cause to go away from that.”

Cheers to that. Stick to your guns, Sony.

From all accounts the PlayStation Vita version of MLB 12: The Show is shaping up to be superb – not only as a standalone item on par with the PS3 version but by providing the capacity to save on one particular and continue on the other for these who get a copy on every. The downside to this is the exact same development team was tasked with working on the two versions of the game.

That means time and resources that would have went into the PS3 rather were siphoned off in favor of working on the Vita and the cost of performing so was the loss of considerable potential capabilities. A rep for SCEA in a posting more than at Operation Sports had the following to say:

The PS3 version of the game has much more attributes this year than last year. Vita improvement only stopped us from carrying out another key lighting update, a significant franchise overhaul, and new grass patterns for the most element.

Most customers aren’t going to miss what isn’t there but still SCEA risks the perception that not sufficient was carried out from MLB 11 to MLB 12 and that has been a concern facing the series the last handful of years. That more would, or at least could, have been completed otherwise for the PS3 version will make the decision to invest time on the Vita side (where indications don’t have the handheld coming out of the gates powerful sales sensible) at the extremely least a questionable one.
