Horror Game Pitch: Venom

Hell Descent: Venom has to be one of the most interesting Marvel characters ever created. Since I was a kid, he’s been my favorite. Eddie Brock and the black alien symbiote used to give me child hood envy and I wished I could have a cool alien costume just like him. Being a huge Spider-Man fan, I found Venom to be my favorite character in the series. Since Venom branched off from Spider-Man and has had several independent series, I think the guy deserves some much needed attention.

I agree, Venom is badass. I don't read comics so I don't know if they completely forgot about Venom and Carnage, but I haven't heard anything about them for some time now. Sad.

Marvel published a brand new Carnage series a few months ago, it was pretty awesome.

Marvel also just started a new Venom series.

I suggest checking them out, the symbiotes are still in action - they're one of Marvel's biggest cash-cows.

Topher Grace ruined the character for me. For forever.

VenomProject5546d ago (Edited 5546d ago )

Mmm, a mature-themed, dark, gritty, action-horror staring my favorite comic book character. Too bad it won't happen.

The Hunger was a great read. The mini-series showed the struggles of being bonded with the alien symbiote. The alien needed a certain mineral to survive; the same mineral found in brains. This is the reason Venom is always threatening to eat people's brains. In The Hunger, he actually loses it and eats a guy's brain. Good stuff.

I'm still waiting on that Venom spin-off film that Sony promised after the disaster that was Topher Grace as Venom in Spider-Man 3.

EDIT: *Spoilers for anyone who hasn't read the newest Venom comics* I'm also thoroughly enjoying the new Venom series, Flash Thompson as Venom? What a curve ball!

TheGreat_15545d ago

A venom spin off would be cool. I still think they need to bring Carnage to the big screen, he's basically Spider-Man's Joker, very sick and sadistic. And if they could cast the character with a Heath Ledger caliber actor it'd make for an awesome movie.

Active Reload5546d ago

There's a movie called Split-Second with Rutger Haur, were there's this serial killer running around London. I won't spoil it for folks, but when I see Venom mentioned, it makes me think of that movie.

theunleashed645546d ago

holy crap i thought i was the only who seen the resemblance between venom and the monster from that movie.

Active Reload5546d ago (Edited 5545d ago )

Yeah, I haven't seen it probably since I was in junior high, lol.

Edit: I think you might've spoiled the movie, lol :P

Inception5546d ago

Yeah, i don't understand why Venom don't have games just like Spidey. I mean, i remembered Maximum Carnage or Seperation Anxiety when we can play as venom, spidey, or co-op. But i want games that just focus only for Venom.

Quagmire5545d ago

I'd prefer a Spawn game first

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing19d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9219d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit19d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing19d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9219d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
