Who’s afraid of the big bad bat? Well if it happens to be me sweating it inside one of those bat-themed costumes, most likely nobody. The read deal is far more intimidating though; see for yourself after the jump.
Warner Bros. Games has allowed 17 minutes of gameplay with commentary from senior producer Ben Mattes and gameplay director Michael McIntyre to escape from the asylum. It’s got beatdowns, brooding, batcaves and gadgets. Oh my.
The game is out on Friday. Until then, I’ll be forcing Victor to speak with a British accent and act as my personal butler.

Okay Okay Okay, please don’t kill me Batman fans….But this game looks like MUCH MORE of the SAME……..
NecroRince

You take that back!
Umar heartless
October 22, 2013 at 09:26
Seriously man it looks like much of the same…doesn’t seem like much different from AC
Alien Emperor Trevor
October 22, 2013 at 09:28
AC was good, so that makes me happy. Everyone was worried it’d go down the tubes with a new studio taking over the franchise.
NecroRince
October 22, 2013 at 09:28
Agreed. I want me MOAR Batman!
Umar heartless
October 22, 2013 at 09:30
True AC was great, but this just looks like AC 2.0, Origins should show Batman as a more unrefined hero
Alien Emperor Trevor
October 22, 2013 at 09:33
Good point. I thought that was the plan.
Umar heartless
October 22, 2013 at 09:35
Exactly I thought that was the plan too. Which is why I’m a bit disappointed…It’s more like Batman : Younger Years than Origins

Don’t worry, we’re only on Batman no.3. It takes at least 13 games before the series gets crap 😀

It will fail to meet sales expectations long before it reaches 13 .

Umar heartless

I’m not sad? Don’t get me wrong, I’m pretty hype for it, it’s just , it looks a bit soulless like your boet said
NecroRince
October 22, 2013 at 09:52
Soulless? Coming from OVG, who is a ginger, that is bloody hysterical 😉

We’re not called Ginger Angels. we’re called Devils!

“Ginger Angels”
Bru, that just sounds like some soulless biker gang and no, you can’t pull off “Red Devils”, thats just a stretch.

I’m intrigued, but a little bit unsure of how safe it is. Hummers are not meant for people with souls.

Then OVG fits the bill doesn’t he?
NecroRince

He has no soul 0-O
CypherGate

That is true

I think they need to mix things up, put batman and robin permanently in his 1960’s outfit, with the boep en alles.
NecroRince

Wictor Wictor Charlie! This looks BATTASTIC! Darry, I want to see a video of you slow mo fighting in your bat suit. Then we as a community will decide whether you are allowed to wear it…

What is it? Is it a full blown game, DLC, or extras for AC? I can never tell anymore.
Alien Emperor Trevor
October 22, 2013 at 09:33
Batman sold separately.
oVg
October 22, 2013 at 09:34
I have not seen any marketing behind this title. Who is the antagonist? Is it a cross breed of AA and AC?
Alien Emperor Trevor
October 22, 2013 at 09:36
If it was a cross between AC & DC I’d be sold!
NecroRince
October 22, 2013 at 09:47
Nope, it’s his origin story bro.

oVg
October 22, 2013 at 09:45
I am sure the game is great because Rocksteady fcking rock. The melee and upgrading has always been AAA.
But something is missing. Where is the AAA narrative of the last two titles.
Anyway, like the Batman Trilogy, the Joker made number two. The third is for fizzle.
I just had to scroll to the top of the page to remind myself what the game is called. Sad.
Umar heartless
October 22, 2013 at 09:48
Yup will still rock, it’s just a bit disappointing

$60 DLC

…the collectors edition has a lekker statue though…
it also comes with a AC expansion pack!
Umar heartless
October 22, 2013 at 09:52
5 Extra costumes. See Batman Like you have never seen him before!! Now you can dress Batman up as a Local Government worker or if that doesn’t tickle your fancy then why not spruce him up with a maid outfit. You will never be without orange juice ever again!!
oVg
October 22, 2013 at 09:55
Unlock Robin’s ORIGINS via The expansion of the DLC expansion from the game before the last.
For an extra $5 you can get a PINK bat suit.
You know what? People will still buy it.
Alien Emperor Trevor
October 22, 2013 at 09:56
It’s not pink, it’s MAGENTA!

They are everywhere. They usually spend 10hours of the day sitting behind a Monitor at work, 2hours sitting behind a steering wheel in traffic, 3hours sitting behind a TV at home, 1hour sitting behind a Tablet on the bog, 1hour sitting behind a monitor at the gym.
I see dead Avatars
