And no Harley.GIF yet makes me a sad bat.

 

[dukeoflegs]

Looks like a cross between the Tumbler and the more traditional Batmobile.

Reminds me of the Pagani Zonda

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

That was some shitty speech. Cinematic trailers do nothing for me, bring me gameplay. I don't know how to feel about the Batmobile, I liked flying around in City. I hope they bring back the good riddles from Asylum.

 

[Alchemist]

Trailer was badass.

Day one purchase for me.

 

[ThatStupidLion]

rocksteady developing?

 

[Halcyon]

So if it is the same exact game only now you get to drive the Batmobile around I'm not going the be all that excited.

 

[DrGonzo615]

Reminds me of the Pagani Zonda

+1 if a Zonda and a Tank had sex.

 

[nbnt]

So it's a yearly franchise now?

And I'm really surprised at the lack of last gen version, since it's coming this year and is still using UE3.

 

[BiggStankDogg]

From the site, if you wanted a closer look at the cover art...

 

[darkjedi187]

Playing Arkham Origins right now, but this will be nice to have later this year.

 

[LiK]

CG Trailers do absolutely nothing for me with established IPs.

It was a good trailer

 

[moltonasty]

beast ass trailer

Will get Wii U version if there is a miracle, if not PC it is.

Nice trailer, but would like to see some gameplay, at least a quick glimpse.

Not gonna happen. Besides the fact that it was announced as PS4, XBONE, PC...WB games has shown such disdain for the Wii U that they even CANCELLED planned DLC for Origins, that people had already paid for. Considering the situation is that bad, I don't see any possibility of this coming to Wii U at all.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

rocksteady developing?

Uh, did you read the OP at all?

Yes.

 

[3bdelilah]

Not digging the new Harley Quinn look.

Batman, too. Looks like the Bruce from AO instead of AA and AC. I also don't like they seem to be going for the Nolan feel. I fucking loved the Dark Knight trilogy (although Rises waz kinda underwhelming), but Arkham is fantastic because it seems to be somewhat true to the comics.

 

[Kriken]

After being burned by Origins, I was bit hesitant. But I have more faith in Rocksteady making this great than WB games screwing it up. Add another game that'll get me to buy a PS4 in the future

 

[On Demand]

Pffft, you don't like the Arkham Origins style of looks-like-Nolan-but-isn't-Nolan?

The art looks dry and pretty uninspired. Obviously work went in, but it's just the typical Batman schlock. I'd like to see more inspiration from the comics and less from Nolan's work. Hell I'd rather have them snag some ideas from the Burton films, at least those had interesting environments.

I'm sure it'll be a great game, but it sure looks bland.

Yeah. I like Rocksteady's own style. It felt more like a comic. This nolan style is horrible. After Origins i was hoping they would go back to their own thing but i guess not.

EDIT-

And Harley looks like shit. Nothing like before.

 

[dankir]

Okay that was freaking hype!

 

[Alpende]

Fuck yeah! The trailer looked awesome. Glad this is next gen only. Can't frigging wait.

 

[Kajiba]

Trailer was so good.

 

[okayfrog]

Anybody else not so bothered by the CGI trailer? It's an Arkham game, we already know what the gameplay will be like.

Even though I didn't play Origins, I'm pretty hyped for this. Next-gen only + bigger city + last in the series = I'm hyped.

Will pick up when $20 or less.

 

[Albo]

That Game Informer cover is damn sexy.

And no Harley.GIF yet makes me a sad bat.

Looks a little like tara strong. edit:beaten like a goon

I seem to have missed the UE3 confirmation. Source?

 

[dankir]

Reminds me of the Pagani Zonda

FUCKING THIS!

Also Harley's model is completely different too?

 

[catapult37]

What's up with that will? Thomas Wayne didn't know he was going to die (I regret i will not get to see you grow up, etc...)

 

[Struct09]

New generation focused, and this year? Hyped! Day one!!

 

[Ephemeris]

I find their trailers stay pretty close to the theme of the games. City and Origins' weren't off base at all.

Bodes well.

 

[e_i]

It's using UE3? Bah.

 

[Acquiescence]

She really looks like a pornstar, but I can't for the life of me pinpoint which one.

 

[Radec]

That was gooooood!

 

[Lonestar]

Hype Hype Hype Kiss Kiss

 

[nded]

LOL Im guessing you have never been to any major city then....or seen one on TV.

I'm guessing you've never been to Gotham where gangs, mobsters, supervillains and Batman roam the streets. If anyone else is out and about at night in Gotham they're either police or hobos. This is a city that cordoned off a section of itself just to contain its criminals, a city in such poor condition that it necessitated the creation of the fucking Batman.

 

[Zia]

Like that the characters don't seem to be sinewy, roided grotesqueries this time around. Now to see if they iron out all the other aesthetic messes from Arkham City. It's like the most technically impressive, seemingly fun game I've seen that I can't play because of how repulsive it looks.

 

[The Lamonster]

Damn, the character models looked great.

 

[Xater]

Also people that fear it's UE3, that engine is quite flexible. Even if they use it they mist likely modified it and made it work. I wouldn't worry about that.

Fuck yeah! The trailer looked awesome. Glad this is next gen only. Can't frigging wait.

Current gen...

 

[Kageshinzo]

I am somewhat disappointed they did not continue with the escalation location motif: I was hoping it was going to be a nation, after the asylum and the city.

 

[Alienous]

She really looks like a pornstar, but I can't for the life of me pinpoint which one.

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

This is DEFINATELY UNREAL ENGINE 4! I am so happy !

 

[Vinterbird]

It's been yearly for some time now. This is WB's take on AC/CoD at this point.

 

[DrLyme]

I think the distorted voice at the beginning is John Noble (Walter Bishop from Fringe).

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

This is DEFINATELY UNREAL ENGINE 4! I am so happy !

How did you come to that conclusion?

 

[FDBMath]

Well, that was awesome.

I'm all in on this one! Next-gen/PC exclusive, yeah buddy!

 

[RadioactiveLobster]

What's up with that will? Thomas Wayne didn't know he was going to die (I regret i will not get to see you grow up, etc...)

A lot of people update their will yearly (I imagine someone with as much money as the Wayne's would update their wills multiple times a year)

I'm not either. I prefer gameplay, but CGI trailers tend to be the best way to convey the story elements in these types of games. Not to mention the team is probably busy preparing for a demonstration at either GDC or, most likely, E3.

Some people act like we'll never see gameplay the way they go about.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

How did you come to that conclusion?

They just let anybody sign up on this website nowadays

 

[chickdigger802]

ok i know his car can drive by itself but the cover still kinda looks like someone jacked his ride and batman is chasing them

 

[kiyomi]

Can't wait for game footage.

 

[MormaPope]

I've got a bad feeling about this.

Yes it's next gen but I know already what Batmobile means: titanium roadblocks everywhere so you can't just constantly run over goons with your car and must go hand to hand combat. Just like in Halo and so many other games, where there suddenely the only way to progress is going through a narrow tight spot, no car can't fit through.

I hope the game let's us go into buildings more instead of using the aforementioned technique.

Didn't think of this before, for some reason Batman running people over didn't enter my mind but they have to design the game so players don't do that. I imagine there will be many main roads that lead the player to a different HUB area, but the main roads will be completely abandoned except for enemies in vehicles.

Main roads won't have hand to hand combat but vehicle combat instead. You have to shoot out the tires of enemy vehicles or make them crash in some way. Batmobile will have speed and combat upgrades. Side streets and buildings will exist next to the main roads and collectibles/secrets can be found in random buildings/alleys.

 

[On Demand]

Damn, the character models looked great.

Haha. No they don't.

 

[lyonhardt]

So if it is the same exact game only now you get to drive the Batmobile around I'm not going the be all that excited.

Yeah, this worries me.

 

[Nicktendo86]

I need a ps4, just for this game.
