If someone is willing to be vetted, it's safe to say that this game does exist. Which means it's source is factual. So we can expect a Damian Wayne game featuring the Judge as a villain sometime eventually. Now it's a question of when.
 
Well, that's not what happened in the issue really. The old heroes were dead or moved off planet, and it was all their kids. I don't think they were acting out old battles, either, at least not that I remember? There was the Superman robots that would automatically kill any threat, but the heroes in the story didn't really do anything, outside Damian Bats.

Damian Wayne must have pictures of every DC exec in compromising situations. That's the only way to explain why they keep pushing him on us.

XD

But he only got genuinely interesting when he became Red Hood. I personally wish he'd stayed dead and joined Uncle Ben and the Wayne's as the only people in comics to do so. I feel the same about Damien though and I really liked him.

Real talk, I don't get the love for Tim. He's cool, but overrated as hell.

I think of Tim as the benchmark for a Robin. Dick transcends the role.

He was Robin from 1990 to 2011. (Yeah yeah Damian but Tim still had the ongoing and a role in the TT.) That's twenty years, so a full generation of people. If you grew up reading comics, and grew up a fan of the Bat-world--you read a lot of Tim adventures.

And he was written in that "super relatable", Peter Parker mold for the first half of his career so the guy was easy to like.

I did PM Bish yesterday and he wrote back. I wrote him back.

Honestly guys, I don't know if it'll work or not.
I'd say to anyone looking to leak info on an unannounced game where the developer has to deal with an ip holder like Marvel or DC, don't. Strains the relationship and makes everyone working on it look bad. Doubly not worth it if you or a friend happens to be a source.

No one cares or will remember you were the first to reveal something.

Just something to consider.

Eh. We knew about Spider-Man before it happened, I'm pretty sure Insomniac and Marvel are still good.

Pretty sure we had no concrete proof Insomniac was involved until reveal.

I'm talking about actual confirmation and proof. No idea what the guy in question has. If it was on the level of imagery yeah, people would be fucked.

Doesn't mean they're not livid when an actual substantial leak happens before a reveal. People lose their jobs over it. Undisputed fact. Doesn't matter if it's a publisher, ip holder or studio swinging the blade.

You're making this sound super serious, because leaks happen a lot, so are we saying someone gets fired every time Jason Schrier reveals the next AssCreed?

Man, calm down. When the guy who leaked the information was smart he tried the best to hides his traces, nothing will happen.

Yeah, but that wasn't what you originally said. You were talking about strained relationship between IP holder and yadda yadda. Something that isn't applicable to this situation.

Nobody will get fired either. Companies like it when the existence of games leak, it creates buzz

The problem is the second half of his career, when he was written as human super computer, infallible stu. He just bores me.

You're breaking my heart man...
 
Me too, kinda burned out on Batman games right now, would love a Supes, Flash, Arrow or Wonder Woman game.

All of those except for Green Arrow because a street-level character would be a waste after getting 4 Batman games in a row. Especially one who is just liberal Batman.

Give me a Catwoman, Batgirl, or Nightwing game.

Given Suicide Squad and Gotham's popularity, it seems like WB should be fast realizing that Batman-related properties don't have to shoehorn Batman himself right in everyone's faces to be successful. The whole Bat-universe seems like it's ripe to break out from BATMAN: SUBTITLE starring BATMAN, but despite evidence that proves the point, they're loathe to make the attempt with any DTV animated features or video games.

Yawn. Pretty boring side story Not ineterested in a whole game in the setting.

Call me back when a Nightwing game happens.
