    I'm just guessing/surmising, but what do you guys think is under the cracking/flaking concrete on the batman logo? Looks like it could be the new game title.

    I'm guessing this one could be titled something along the line of "Batman: Gotham Asylum".

    Either way, it's great to see that they obviously just kept going after finishing Arkham Asylum, if they've already got the idea for it nailed down and such a polished trailer knocked up already. The Joker looks even better than in Arkham too, with the veins on his forehead popping and there's obviously some remnant of titan there, between that and the drip that he's hooked up to!

    Of course from the end of Arkham Asylum we know that
    Bane is still alive, as we saw him grabbing the drum of Titan right at the end

    Correction:
    Bane, Scarecrow and Croc all survive. You get a different ending showing a different character grabbing the drum depending on the difficulty setting you choose.

    I managed to unlock all the achievements in this excellent game and I'm really looking forward to doing the same in this sequel.

    It's brilliant that they've already got to work on this, trailer looks amazing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,330 ✭✭✭niallon


    This'll make the gaming season to come quite fantastic anyways! Bioshock 2, God Of War 3, Gran Turismo 5, Dark Siders and Arkham Asylum all on the horizon, happy days!

    The Iceberg lounge....so, Penguin will be one of the bosses?

    Wouldn't mind seeing some more of those who made cameos in the first game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,024 ✭✭✭Moiph


    Dear lord! If it's anywhere near as good as the first I'll be happy :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,738 ✭✭✭djkeogh


    Yea the first one was one of the best games of the year. If they can produce another title of the same calibre I'll be very happy indeed.

    I finished it on medium and on hard, and saw
    Bane grabbing it when I finished it on hard, and was thinking WTF, I thought that was Croc last time, when I finished it on medium!
    so thanks for clearing that up, at least now I know I'm not actually losing my mind! Damn scarecrow gas :pac:

    Looks like Black Mask will be in it too, as well as (obvioulsy) Two Face - and CatWoman might make an appearance. Looking forward to it.

    Ya noticed the obvious Two Face and Penguin references, but didn't see the Black Mask one, where was that?

    The more cameos the better I think...

    I think if the sequel has a new Arkham and a few locations to visit around the city, that'll be class.

    Big Sionis sign in the themepark bit (about 35 seconds in) - Roman Sionis being Black Mask's real name.

    A rather out of place name drop of him in the vid, but it is there.

    I had no idea that was the case. It's been about the third time I've played this game and I'm still not fully convinced I've unlocked every Riddler Trophy!

    I have to say this is without doubt the best game I personally have ever played.
    Voice artists Maurice LaMarche and Stana Katic revealed that Mr. Freeze and Talia al Ghul will feature in the game, having mentioned they will be voicing the respective characters - I can't wait to see Egon doing Mr Freeze lol

    Does this mean we might actually see
    Damien Wayne!

    I'm really looking forward to this


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,618 ✭✭✭Mr Freeze


    Doubt the son of the Bat will be in it.

    Batman had plenty of run ins with Talia and Raas, before that runt was conceived.
