Yep for many of us hoping to finally get a glimpse of venom got our hopes crushed this month. EGM Magazine came in today and it was supposed to have a spider-man 3 cover and a whole preview on the game with screens of venom but apparently last minute Sam Raimi stopped it from happening. The editor in chief Dan Hsu apologizes in the editorial.

Unfortunately he hasnt put anything up in his editor blog at http://egm.1up.com/ but maybe other people who also happen to have a subscription to EGM can confirm this with a scan as I do not have a scanner.
 
:cmad: DAMMIT! I been waiting for at least a screenshot for a while.
 
Oh, in case you're wondering why Spider-Man 3 isn't on our cover this month (as promised last issue), well, you'll have to ask movie director Sam Raimi why he's such a jerk and pulled our story at the last minute. Sorry for the late change in plans, and we hope that you enjoy our in-depth look at Guitar Hero II instead!


-- Dan "Shoe" Hsu, Editor-in-Chief

Thats word for word whats in the editorial at the bottom in the first page of EGM. This is such unfortunate news because I was really looking forward to the game at the very least. You'd think that for the studio to give EGM that exclusive that Sam Raimi would have known about it or not be able to do anything or something.
 
Venom must play a big role in this game... or else Raimi just doesn't want the world to see it yet.

The article most likely would give a lot away. Even though we know a lot of the story.
 
Thats disapointing, but calling Raimi a Jerk? A bit harsh, I think. It is up to him in the first place. To be Honest, I think they should be happy he even considered it seeing how secret Raimi wants to keep Venom.
 
Damn and I went out and bought the issue today too. Well at least I know why they took it out and can stop blaming EMG now.
 
Aww man:(

Its gonna be a while til he officially see Venom :o
 
How bout we email Dan Hsu and ask him how Venom looks like?

:dry: No, because I never had a conversation with you before until now(I think). 2 months really isn't a helluva long wait, just calm down and be patient. Christ, you're acting like the movie ITSELF has been delayed for another two months. I'm even surprised we're getting another trailer this year.

Well, I'm a patient man, so I have no problem with it being released with Casino Royale. That's gonna be a day to remember.:cwink:

Well I have no interest to see Bond...James Bond.:csad: Thats not gonna even speed up the 2 months at all:cmad:
 
I'm glad Rami did this. I'd rather wait to finally see Venom in all his glory on the big screen than a crappy scrennshot from a game.
 
Ooooo, I love it.
Salivate,make us want it even more. :cwink:

I'm not too into the whole Bond thing either,but from some of the trailer clips I've seen it may be worth seeing. *Shrugs*

I read a review from a test screening, and the person said it was fantastic, and that Craig pwned as Bond.

A trailer can make any film look good:ninja:

I might just buy a ticket for Casino Royale and then watch the trailer and then leave :o Tickets are only $4 where I live.
