Iambaytor Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 My favorite part of that Batman picture is the paragraph "They must be taught to fear one all-powerful demon of the night - and only one" Barbara Gordon. Cassandra Cain. Batwoman. Nightwing. Robin. Red Robin. Azrael. Damien Wayne. Fucking Batman INC. Way to shit the bed, Bruce.
Mr. Hakujin Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 ^^Yeah, that video only makes a 60s TV/Adam West Batman all the more missed as a skin for the game.
Thelogan Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 I haven't said this since that tragic, penniless summer many years ago, but...I want Dick.
Keth Posted January 8, 2012 Posted January 8, 2012 Finished this a couple days ago and it kinda makes me wanna change my GOTY vote. Skyrim is great and all, but this was fucking awesome. They completely outdid the original in every possible way, and I thought the story was awesome. The buildups it had made me think it was gonna fall flat at the last second, but the way it all went down was so good. Voice acting was amazing as always also. I may be finding new shit a billion hours into Skyrim, but I don't even think that game beats The Goddamn Batman.
Iambaytor Posted January 8, 2012 Posted January 8, 2012 The twist at the end was kind obvious, I had heard that Azrael was in the game and I was all ready to find out that Hugo Strange was working for the order of St. Dumas and you'd fight Azrael because Batman doesn't kill and blah-blah but just finding out that it was actually Ra's Al Ghul (cause why the fuck else would he be in Arkham City?) was far too obvious and the story seemed too short. It also sort of bugs me that whole areas are only pertinent if you're playing as Catwoman or Robin (apparently Robin's story is where Black Mask becomes valid and you don't even see Poison Ivy in Batman's section) it also would have been nice to have more Arkham Asylum villains as boss battles (just cause we fought 'em once doesn't mean we don't want to do so again: Bane and Killer Croc made appearances and more Scarecrow is always welcome.) The control scheme frustrated me a bit as well but that's really just a personal gripe, I wanted Batman to control like Spider-Man or at least have separate buttons for running and jumping. Hopefully Batman: Arkham Commonwealth will improve on this and make my very few gripes go away.
The NZA Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 'Batman: Arkham City' follow-up to be a Silver Age prequel The yet-to-be-announced follow-up to 2011's Batman: Arkham City will be a prequel based on the Silver Age of DC's comic books from the 1950s during which the titular hero teamed up with the likes of Superman and founded the Justice League of America, Variety reports. According to the publication, the Rocksteady Studios title will revolve around Batman's first meeting with the Joker. Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment is also expected to reteam a number of DC characters through the title in some form, as part of a push to get audiences used to seeing the superheroes in media outside of film. The game, which WBIE declined to comment about, will likely hit during 2013, Variety reports. This comes as part of a mandate by Time Warner to monetize the superheroes through films, games, televised series', and cartoons. WBIE published Batman: Arkham Asylum in 2009, followed by its sequel three years later. Its sequel sold 2 million units worldwide in its first week, and reached 6 million within its first month. i think this is a really cool direction to take the series in, and only hope they try an all-new aesthetic to match; beefcake UE3 bats would look even wose here (to me), but after seeing some of the skins they did last game, they might just pull it off.
Keth Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Wasn't Arkham City supposed to be Mark Hamill's last outing as J-man? Hopefully they can get him for it, cause I haven't been a fan of some of the other Joker voices.
IceManML Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Uh yea. the only good voice actor for joker. I mean no one likes hanna-barbara voices, Let alone the voice they used for the brave n the bold... ugh. This game was def GOTY btw.
Keth Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 He was ok, I'd prefer Kevin Michael Richardson from The Batman if they had to replace him. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_CBF7EB69E&feature=related
Maldron Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 I loved dimaggio's rendition. TheBatman's Joker was great for the direction they took the character in, but that direction wasn't very silver age either. I just wanted to throw John Dimaggio in there because I think he did a great animated dark Joker. less whimsy, but Red Hood didn't really require whimsy as much as psychopath. I know he does whimsy fine from Jake the Dog and Bender Bending Rodriguez.
alive she cried Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Can a mod please correct the misspelling in the thread title?
IceManML Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qOdggdLPLM Fuckin awesome Joker. Glad theres hope for when Hamil quits. What movie is that?
C_U_SPACECOWBOY Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Fuckin awesome Joker. Glad theres hope for when Hamil quits. What movie is that? Under the Red Hood. One of the better DC animated features if memory serves.
