Venom being Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s main antagonist was among the bigger reasons the game generated as much excitement in the lead-up to its launch as it did, and with the game now more than a month old, it’s fair to say that the iconic villain lived up expectations. Interestingly, however, it seems only a fraction of the voice recording that voice actor Tony Todd did for Venom made it into the final game.
The same was confirmed by Todd recently at Fan Expo San Francisco (via @Okami13_ on Twitter), where he revealed that only about 10% of all the dialogue he recorded for Venom was used in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. Meanwhile, as reported by Culture Crave, Todd also revealed that a scene that he recorded voice lines for would have seen the Symbiote passing on to Miles Morales, though the idea was scrapped and removed from the game.
Developer Insomniac Games has previously suggested that it might develop a spinoff focused on Venom should there be enough demand for one amongst fans. With so much of Todd’s work as Venom apparently not having been used in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, could it perhaps be being saved for a standalone game?

A new blog highlights interesting statistics for MW2's settings, plus new MW3 accessibility settings are detailed.
Developer Sledgehammer Games and publisher Activision Blizzard have released a detailed look at the new accessibility options that launched with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III, the best-selling game of last month. In it, the companies reveal some interesting statistics that show accessibility options and features are very popular with players and useful for everyone that plays Call of Duty games.
Very few video game promotional products can actually make graphics better, but the official eyeglasses from Warby Parker can do just that. A tie-in between prescription glasses and a video game release is a different breed of cross-promotion from the norm, as fans usually see products aimed at children, like fast food restaurant toys or limited run cereals. This makes the Warby Parker collaboration stand out, since prescription eyeglasses are extremely practical, and can certainly do more to improve video game graphics than a new television.
Last night was The Game Awards, and how good it was or wasn’t will vary depending on who you talk to. On the one hand, there were good reveals that had people excited. For example, some people are playing the latest adventures of Kratos because of the free DLC that was dropped last night, and the same goes for those who are fans of Clive Rosfield. There were also some fun awards moments, like Baldur’s Gate 3 winning Game of the Year. But for many online, they’re talking about Geoff Keighley and how he handled the show last night; not all of it is positive mentions.

One player, desperate to freely roam Marvel's Spider-Man 2's depiction of New York City as Venom once more, has found a relatively unconventional way of doing so. However, we wouldn't go so far as recommending it, requiring intentionally crashing your game during a specific story segment and nerves of steel. Vague Marvel's Spider-Man 2 SPOILERS to follow!
Spider-Man 2 voice actor Tony Todd has fuelled speculation that a Venom spin-off game or DLC featuring the character could be in the works by claiming that only 10 per cent of his voice lines were used in the final release.
Tony Todd has revealed that a huge amount of the work he did for was cut from the final game. The horror icon appeared at Fan Expo San Francisco over the past weekend to talk about his role as Venom in the acclaimed superhero sequel and offered an insight into another storyline involving the symbiote and Miles Morales.
The wireless earbud market is pretty competitive, especially when Cyber Monday deals roll around. It doesn't help that there are loads of big brands out there that all dominate the marketing side of things. I used to swear by Samsung's Galaxy Buds since I've always used their partner phones, but this year I've been testing a set of buds that have convinced me never to waste my money on Samsung's overpriced buds again.
Many processes go into making video games, and a byproduct of that is that not everything planned gets used in the final product. Many video game developers can tell you about cut levels, shelved ideas, and how they had to “rework things” to get a final product that they were really proud of. For Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, they were so dedicated to getting the sequel to their hit PS4 title ready that they didn’t talk about it for almost two years after its announcement. Thankfully, the game was a huge hit and is the best-selling game on PS5 in terms of its launch numbers.
Spider-Man 2 voice actor Tony Todd has reportedly said that 90% of the dialogue he recorded for Venom wasn’t included in the final game.
In 2022, Elden Ring won Game of the Year, but the acceptance speech was hijacked at the last minute by a stage invader who 'nominated' his "Orthodox rabbi Bill Clinton". Unfortunately, that wasn't the end of Geoff Keighley's events being interrupted. Earlier this year, during Gamescom Opening Night Live, a member of the stage ran up to Keighley and started yelling about Clinton wanting GTA 6.
