Looks like Robin may be a playable character in Arkham City

But only for the challenge maps...and if you buy it from Best Buy.

Over 10 mins of gameplay including Catwoman. Looks incredible. Could do with fewer one-liners from Catwoman, but it's no big issue. Interrogating people as Batman seems to fit so perfectly with the character that you wonder why it wasn't even in the first game.

Looks like The Riddler in Arkham City is much like Jigsaw. Could be creepy as hell, I like it already.

OMG! I just read that Castle's Detective Beckett aka Stana Katic will voice Talia al Ghul in AC!!! Just one more reason (at least for me) to look forward to this game... errr let me rephrase that: GO CRAZY WITH ANTICIPATION!!!

It does look great, but the fact that both Catwoman and Batman did PERFECT fighting combos annoys me because I could never pull that off, and couldn't win the harder fighting challenges in the first game, at all  :cry:

Everybody chill and allow me to break the ice. Mr.Freeze is in Arkham City. That's pretty cool.



At least he doesn't seem like Batman & Robin's version of Mr.Freeze XD Actually looks and sounds good, looks like that boss battle could be pretty interesting too.

^ nice one XD

As cool as character introductions are I wish they would keep at least one character a secret so that there's still some surprise waiting when you encounter him/her/it XD

See, now I think Arkham Asylum's getting too crazy with it's pre-DLC stuff. Not only are the Batman costumes retail specific, but so to is the supposed Robin costumes as well. Now I'd be missing out on a decent portion of the game, 4 hrs worth if the developers are to be believed, if I didn't buy it from Tescos?

I know Arkham City's not the only one, Red Dead Redemption and LA Noire have done the same, but when will publishers learn that this isn't the right way to entice people to buy their game? No wonder they bitch about new sales in decline when they do stuff like this, it just makes me feel like I'm not getting the complete package if I buy it somewhere else just because it may be cheaper. No wonder people don't buy games on Day One of release and just wait it out until it drops in price or a GOTY version, rather then shell out more money for when they eventually make all this pre-order DLC stuff become available at some point in the future. Feels like I'm being cheated out of it. Character skins is one thing, but additional gameplay is something different.

The best way to stop this kind of behaviour is to vote with my wallet and not buy the game, but I do want to play Arkam City for sure.

Batman Arkham City - the album

Wonder if these songs play in the actual game or if this is more of an Image album to get you in the mood.

There's a bunch of previews out there now of journalists playing a cut section from the game. If you care about the story, don't read any of them. The amount of reveals that the marketing team has done previously has spoiled some of the bosses for me which sucks, but the one, massive tidbit of info from that preview is just beyond ridiculous to put out there now. Granted, it's from an early section of the game and developers are protective of releasing really key plot points in their story so I guess that it doesn't affect the story all that much before release, as crazy as that sounds. But still, it's a huge spoiler that's ruined any shock impact it would have on me (and it would for you too). I'm on a complete media blackout on this from here on in to prevent myself reading any more info.
