Maybe it will be an option in the final product?

Yes, because with all the things they're working on, they are going to dedicate UI and art time to making it so you can have Batman with or without pupils.

The writing and voice acting look to be top notch, but the gameplay remains to be seen. I'm sure I'll end up buying it anyway.

Batman's voice really grounds the character. The visual interpretation is somewhat jarring, but Kevin Conroy makes it all work for me. Interesting to hear Mark Hamill taking a slightly different direction with the Joker - very in keeping with the character's design in the game.

From an atmosphere and story perspective I'm very interested, but I'm expecting clunky combat. Prove me wrong, Rocksteady!

Hearing those two voices together again = :D

The UE3-style shows through quite a bit though.

Can I buy my freedom?

I didn't like the "There is no escape Joker" and "It's over Joker" lines, no energy at all.

As much as I like the look and style of this game, along with the concept of taking place inside the assylum, and also that Mark Hamill is returning as the Joker, I just can't get myself looking forward to it since it's... well, it's a Batman game. I haven't liked a Batman game since the NES.

Still, I'll give it props for the points I already pointed out.

Beat EviLore at pool.
Game looks nice. The part I like most about this game is they have the same people that did the voices for batman and joker from the 90's cartoon. Only thing I am not sure about this game is the controls.

"It's over, Joker."
"Over? Why, my dear delusional dark knight. It hasn't even begun."

Awesome aliteration. Awesome line.

Man, I really want this game to be good. Everything about it looks pretty solid so far. Lets hope that the gameplay can hold up.

nice, though the Joker BTAS voice would've been better

To be fair, though, Hamill does sound a little... different than in TAS.

Conroy was perfect, though. Never thought I'd hear him do Batman again. I'm tearing up a little bit here.

I think they shold take some creative freedom and add some white lense to cover his eyes.
currently, his eyes are really weird

I think it looks a bit better with no pupil

^It would be better if he had solid white panels over his eyes with no shading. In that pic its like hes got white contact lenses.

He voiced batman recently in the batman anime thingy that came out before TDK.

It was weird watching the trailer. Its the classic batman voices I know but the visuals do not gel with them at all. I wish the style was more cartoony. Maybe I just need to give it some more time.

Oh and buff gordon was hilarious. :lol

That voice is like sweet sweet music to my ears.

Though Hamill does sound a bit different, I think the closest is when he says me drea delusional dark knight.

I will get or at least watch all the cutscenes. :D

Quick, someone email the devs this pic so that they can make this change.

Interesting. This might be first good Batman game since NES' first Batman. It's been what, 20 years?

Oh, Batman's ears are long. Very long.

This Joker does sound slightly different. Maybe Hamil made the voice a little bit darker to match this version of the Joker?

Hamill sounds like he has taken the pitch down a bit, I'm not sure the voice from the cartoon would cross-over too well given the change in art direction that's going on.

(Although I'm open to youtube vids dubbing the trailer to find out!)
