Support NeoGAF

[jett]

Wonder what other changes they've made to the combat, I only noticed the chained "stealth" takedowns.

Looks great, but geez calm down with the camera cuts.

It honestly was a bit dizzying, the camera was moving all over the place.

 

[Kezen]

Yeah, fingers crossed the PS4/X1 versions look as good because goddamn, it looks stunning.

I don't think you should be worried about that, Rocksteady aren't solely targetting high-end PCs and wondering how to make that run on consoles, they're directly targetting current generation consoles and will add effects on PC, simple.

I can believe this is console footage, judging by the IQ.

 

[big_z]

pretty sure batman killed the guy he put head first into the breaker box.

The suit looks horrible. Is Batman a robot?

judging by the facial animation I think so.

 

[B1gg_Randall]

Goddamn

 

[Majine]

looks really good i just have series fatigue at this point.

I've only played Asylum. Will happily jump into this.

 

[Hixx]

Aaaaand back it goes to being my most anticipated game.

Looks amazing.

 

[CadaveriaIX]

HOLY Joker Teeth this looks amazing!

 

[Cave Johnson]

at 1:32 ... the Arkham Knight is so voiced by Troy Baker.

It speaks magnitudes of his range. His performance as the Joker was sublime.

 

[jett]

judging by the facial animation I think so.

And Conroy's monotone delivery, amirite.

 

[strafer]

at 1:32 ... the Arkham Knight is so voiced by Troy Baker.

So

Spoiler

The Joker confirmed?

 

[SolidSnakex]

I wonder what's planned for The Game Awards since the video notes that the next video is do on the 1st and the final one will debut at Sony's keynote at the PSX.

 

[DarkLordMalik]

It honestly was a bit dizzying, the camera was moving all over the place.

Seems to be inspired by the Nolan Batman films.

 

[Paskil]

Looks great so far. Should be at least decent with Rocksteady back on board. Day one, for me.

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

My lord.
This game looks like something I could only dream about.
I can't believe this is really how it looks.

 

[SargerusBR]

We need gifs of Bats fighting those ninjas.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

at 1:32 ... the Arkham Knight is so voiced by Troy Baker.

Jenni Lada, Troy Baker fangirl, said as much at E3. He was very coy about confirming his role as Two-Face in Arkham Knight earlier as well. So yeah, that's probably him.

You know who else Troy Baker played in these Arkham games tho...

 

[LiamR]

Always appreciate the YT links. GameInformer's player is awful.

 

[Salz01]

Omg can't wait. Really hope that's ps4 footage.

 

[HardRojo]

LAWD! 2015 is going to be great!

 

[mike4001_]

DS4 on screen prompts.

So this is PS4 footage or using a DS4 on PC?

I would go for PC.

No way this is running on a console 6 months before release without the optimization process.

 

[UrbanRats]

Looks amazing visually.

After playing (and enjoying) 3 of these games though, i'm happy this is the last one.
They are starting to become overly predictable with their big charging boss, their scarecrow dream sequence (about Bruce reliving his trauma) and their vents and their gargoyles.

This looks like a great closure, tho.

 

[StrongBlackVine]

Agreed, more games should come out during the summer and not just crammed into the holiday season.

I´m just salty about the delay.

So you would have preferred a AC Unity type situation?

 

[GavinUK86]

The new takedowns look incredible.

 

[5taquitos]

It certainly looks kinetic.

All the camera jumps and normal speed/sloooooow mooooo changes made it really busy. Hopefully most of those effects are just for the demo, because that didn't look very fun.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

So

Spoiler

The Joker confirmed?

Nah, that laugh was nothing like The Joker. I don't think it's Two-Face either. My money is now on Robin.

 

[MetalSlug]

Well I'm now very hyped. Still not interested in the Batmobile though.

 

[Projectjustice]

Amazing! I need to finish Origins!

 

[Grimm Fandango]

The new takedowns look incredible.

The effects look so good in slow motion (rain, bullets, sparks). Ugghghhh need this game now.

 

[Altairre]

at 1:32 ... the Arkham Knight is so voiced by Troy Baker.

I don't know if it's some kind of joke at this point or if it's just Rocksteady saying "Hey remember Arkham Origins? Yeah, we neither."

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Looks soooo goooood.

 

[strafer]

Amazing! I need to finish Origins!

Do it.

Amazing game.

 

[Raptomex]

Looks incredible. Can't wait.

 

[Kikujiro]

Looks great, can't wait to see Rocksteady working on a new IP.

 

[cackhyena]

Why they need to add in the cinematic that either won't make it in the game, or will make you wish you were just fighting the guys instead is beyond me. Stop cutting between the real thing and this other bullshit. Just do game play. Looks good, otherwise.

 

[Kezen]

No way this is running on a console 6 months before release without the optimization process.

You think the PC version is optimized as well ? This is probably not representative of either skus, this is a very polished demo, not gameplay taken straight out of the PC.

French PC outlets Canardpc (http://www.canardpc.com/) had a chance to talk with one of the designers and the PC version was faaaaar from being stable or optimized.
The game ran on a 780ti when they saw it.

 

[BruiserBear]

One of my most anticipated games of 2015. Please have a smooth framerate on the consoles.

 

[Ridesh]

Dammmn, looks really good.

 

[Chariot]

at 1:32 ... the Arkham Knight is so voiced by Troy Baker.

No, not again. Nothing against Troy Baker, but if it

Spoiler

is Joker yet AGAIN, I am going to cry.

 

[FlashbladeGAF]

Hope they are showing an actual console version.

We already know the PC version will look great, so lets hope they are showing us console owners the truth

 

[Lilalaunebaer]

So you would have preferred a AC Unity type situation?

Hell naw.

I would have liked them to not announce the game to come out in october in September, only to delay it.

But i always prefer a functional game instead of a rushed broken one. Logic and feels don´t always go hand in hand

 

[TheRealTalker]

looking real good

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Ok I was was pretty meh about this game before, but that trailer got me excited.

 

[Kazdane]

2015 can't come soon enough.

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

The sound design is superb

 

[Pharaoh 117]

Mother of god!!!

I need this game, NOW!

 

[ironcreed]

Looking hot. So much for the summer drought.

 

[glaurung]

Beautiful.

Turned it off half way through, because it looked like spoiler material.

 

[Phat Michael]

Looks amazing. The gameplay looks exactly the same as the previous few games.

 

[Bleepey]

The new takedowns look incredible.

My friend who 3 stars all the combo challenges in arkham city in one chain might not bitch too much if these moves are left to just stealth take downs. He played Arkham City and his early impressions were that he hated the slow down and wanted the franticness of taking down 50 guys without any time to breath.

Edit: I like how the Batmobile is not just an attack vehicle. I always imagine it to not just be used for offence but also for providing emergency care.

 

[matrix-cat]

I love the clouds of dust that pop out when Batman hits guys. Makes them look like extras in a Jackie Chan movie.
