Spider-Man PS4 New Trailer: 12 Things Everybody Missed

5. Martin Li (Mister Negative) And Peter

Spider-Man PS4 Martin Li Mister Negative
Insomniac

We've known for some time that Martin Li - the villainous Mister Negative himself - would be the ancillary antagonist of Insomniac's Spidey title, but the latest trailer provided some more insight into the character and, perhaps more importantly, his relationship with Peter.

We all know that Li is a New York businessmen with major altruistic tendencies, and while the duplicitous nature of his Negative persona will no doubt be unravelled come the game's release, we're equally curious to see how close his ties are to Parker's civilian life. No less than three key Spidey characters will be setting up shop to help Li's charitable endeavours, which raises the steaks and then some, providing there's enough tragedy to his story.

We now know that Pete will also speak to Li in the events preceding the character's explosion onto the NY villain scene as Mister Negative, but what's more interesting is how F.E.A.S.T. will come into play later on. It can't be all that righteous an organisation, especially with Li's criminal connections, and if May and Miles get involved, expect that Li-Parker tension to escalate big time.
