Teaser trailer:

Looks pretty sweet. It always makes me smile how dingy Arkham Asylum is. Would it really be that bad?

No, but there's really no American city that is as dingy and dark as Gotham either.

Yeah, but this is surely still a Federal Facility though. It should look modern, clean and clinical in some places, shouldn't it? Not the cells so much, but some of it...

Apparently you're not familiar with our Federal Government.   Grin

No, I get what you're saying though, but I'm not going to fault the game for that, they're just going off the comics.

As for the game play, it looks pretty great, stealth is supposedly a key element.  The first time you decend from the ceiling with cape completely spread, and take out a thug, will be glorious.

I'm loving what I've seen so far. I've been waiting for a Batman game I can work through.

Glad you got what I mean though; I didn't see why the instruments in the lobotomy room would be rusty old fuckers from 1890.

Yeah, this anachronistic Gotham seems to have stemmed from the Burton flicks and graphic novels like Arkham Asylum and such.  In the 70's Gotham was just a stand in for your big, modern city....just with a lot of crime.  I remember Bruce's penthouse was your typical modern, hip city flat.  The cars weren't straight out of a gangster flick, they were boxy 70's sedans.  I think I like it better like that.

I like it when it has thirties-chic, just not when everything looks like it's not been cleaned or washed since the thirties.

I've seen commercials for it today with Bats beating up skeletons.  Nice.

Think like Metal Gear Solid or Ninja Gaiden, but with Batman and his gadgets.  THe first time I drop him from a ceiling and take out some henchmen, I might just dribble a little pee in my pants.

In addition to the Joker and all kinds of goons, you'll make the rounds through other bat-rogues.  If this game is as good as it looks, it'll be the game I've been waiting for since the Atari 2600.

If that's not a reason to end Holiday early, I don't know what is.   Grin  That, and you and JD have a package that will probably be waiting for you too.

So far we have a 'it's art and you just don't understand it' nonpology from Hags and a post from Pieface Ron comparing Mike and CM to a dog that shit on the rug.

Think our official stance should be 'hell with those guys'.

I don't know what it comes with.  Often that stuff will come with special books, a little statue or figuring, etc.
