THE GODDAMN BATMAN: Arkham City
-
-
That Batman/Catwoman Back-to-back cover is fantastic!
-
Looks pretty co-
HOLY SHIT IS THAT TWO FACE IN THE BACKGROUND
-
that is one nice cover
can't wait for this game
Catwoman as playable would ensure my money
-
-
Huh, is it just me, or do those pics look like Batman went and merged with Sin-City. I just hope they'll be able to actually include all the batman villains this time.
:ninja:
-
Actually, I thought that was Penguin at first, maybe that was just me, but now that I take a closer look it IS two face.
The posters are epic.
Also I wanna know if this will be more of a free roam type of game.
-
I've never been so excited to see Catwoman.
Does this mean co-op or changing characters in the story at times?
-
Awesome. Can't wait to see more of this.
-
I think I'm gonna have to get this magazine simply for that awesome cover. So much aweeesomeness.
And is it me or is Two Face looking father….porky? I thought it was penguin at first but XD
-
I have yet to complete the first…
...
Crap -
This game is shaping up to be pretty amazing. Catwoman, Two Face, Mr. Freeze, Talia al Ghul, and possibly Penguin and Black Mask (based on hints in the trailer).
This is a good time to be a Batman fan.

Mr. Freeze
Let me just say, for the record, if they don't get this guy:

to do the voice for Mr. Freeze, I'll cry. -
This is making me so goddamn giddy. I'm still replaying Asylum every couple of months.
It will be a long year of waiting for sure.
-
Awesome, looking forward to this one.

Year?
Aren't most places advertising it for a late November/Early December release?
-
Check the article linked in the first post. It said "fall 2011". Might be a typo though. If it comes earlier I'll be even merrier.

This guy will be playing Mr. Freeze

This game looks nice.
-
-
B:AA was awesome! I can't wait till this.
The only things I don't want them to add is Co-Op because Co-Op can ruin games and I don't want them to make it GTA Batman.
-
@ZeArmyOfHalen:
You've seen the gameplay..?
:wassat:No, but the premise looks really promising.

Considering the fact that people bitched and moan to hell about the first game's lack of multiplayer to the point it was one of many reasons people tried to rain on the game's success. I don't know why they wouldn't do that unless it becomes a problem that can potentially mess up the game. The fact that Robin is in the game almost seems to confirm they'll be co-op in some form in the game.
-
I'm fine with there not being any multiplayer in this game either. I still enjoyed the first one a lot.
On a related note, DC Direct is finally making figures from the first game, and the first wave comes out in January next year. However, there is also a battle-damaged version of Batman you can find online now, which was a Comic Con exclusive this year.

Source?
Pretty sure Rocksteady hates any form of Robin.

Don't know if this still holds any weight though.
-
Fuckin-A. Had I held off, I would have opened my mailbox to see this staring me in the face, and I would have sat bricks. This'll be my last copy of GameInformer too, until I renew my GameStop Rewards card.
-
Mr. Freeeeeze. :cwy:
I always feel so, so bad for him.
Speaking of which, does Bruce EVER apologize for breaking Norma?
In one of the comics I read, he knocked her over by accident (dodging Mr. Freeze's Blasts), and while Mr. Freeze is crying, He beats him up and detains him.
No apology though. I raged. Honestly, If I were him I'd do the same damn thing…. with less killing, but yeah.. definitely the robbing.
-
Happy about this. Never got around to playing Arkham Asylum, so I'm gonna buy this one this time around.
-
If the cliffhanger from AA is any suggestion, you may want to play through AA first, Flux.
The game doesn't take too long if you just focus on plowing through the story. -
Yeah, AA's story is fairly short. What makes the game longer is looking for riddles and the such while playing through the story at the same time.

I was typing one earlier and my Laptop heated out on me :CBut anyway - thanks, for that tip, Akumu - I think I actually might play it then.
My brother's probably got it lying around somewhere. I must remember to have a look for it later :) -
Man, the first one was sooo good. Having to wait a whole year is gonna suuuuuck :sad:
-
If you're one of the few people who remembered when the first game appeared in a 2008 issue of Game Informer it really shouldn't be that hard.
-
This looks awesome, despite the fact that I don't like Catwoman. Her suit design is awesome this time around, though!
And this time, I won't spoil myself with all those boss trailers (if they do that again, anyways).
Speaking of, I'll be severely disappointed if all the boss fights are a "David vs. Goliath" battle.
So about the ending of the first game…
! Are they going to bring back the Titan formula, and if so, I wonder which ending they're going with, even though they only changed the character randomly..
-
I wonder how they're going to handle detective mode this time around, it'll be interesting to see what they do with it. I can't wait to see all the villains in the game to, Mr Freeze and Two-Face can't go wrong with them. It sounds like it's going to be just as good if not better than the first one.

New info
Two-face and Cat woman ftw. This game is shaping up nicely

Thanks for posting,this game is going to be fantastic,I can already tell!
-
I really hope I get the second cover when it comes…
-
Looks like they're not going all acid-trip on the character designs on Two-Face and Catwoman. I wholeheartedly approve. Nothing would make me happier than having Harley in her classic costume.
-
I'm really liking those new details a lot.
-
Got my copy of Game Informer today, ans the first thing I did was read this article.
Everything about this game seems like it will surpass the first.Zsasz has his own optional sidequest. and they said there's a lot of things like that, so I'm hoping that we get to see so Hush and Mad Hatter.
After I got done with the article, I immediately went and started a new file on Arkham Asylum
Can't wait for this!
-
Got my GameInformer, got the second cover. I love both covers, but I wanted the first more.
-
Y'know, I've never liked Catwoman, and I'm not liking how they're actually making her a love interest for Batman in this game… The best Batman I know is the sexually-dead Batman. The only situation where I actually liked the romance was in Batman: Hush, since it applied to making Batman paranoid and showing he has trust issues and yaddayaddayadda. Unless Hush is in the game, then I don't have much hope for the "love" (which I would love to be proven wrong with).
Enough of that ranting now. Despite all that, I actually really like Catwoman's design.
Two-Face is gonna take a while for me, though. He's my favorite villian, but… the burnt side of his face seems too red in my opinion... I was hoping for something like The Dark Knight's Two-Face, but I guess I'll just grow use to this one.
-
So you are a Miller fan, eh?
-
More of a Loeb & Sale fan. I loved, loved, loved Miller's The Dark Knight Returns, and I liked Batman: Year One.
The Dark Knight Returns' art irritated me at first, but it sure has a story that's hard to beat.
-
Been storming so I finally got around to reading the article. I hope we get this demo soon, but they'll no doubt keep it press only till close to release date. Happy to read Harley's costume change. Red/Black pants, midriff barring top, lighter makeup, and a Joker tattoo on her hip. Still dressing like a slut, but in a much less elaborate way.
