What's the deal with those x and y coordinates? We want 720p!

The quality on the HD GameTrailers version is way better than this reposted one on YouTube.

If this doesn't live up to my hype there will literally be hell to pay.

I could play Batroid forever.

I wish I could say the same to you benji but you know how jealous Jackal gets.

dang I hope my ATI 1gb 5670 can play this at high settings. For Arkham Asylum I got a benchmark of over 115 FPS so I would assume so

My only gripe is that I must have another card to carry all of its PhysX, assuming they still incorporate it in-game.

Why do the credits mention Kinect at the end of the video?

Generic boilerplate for Xbox 360 and co.

This year is going to just be offensive. I can't believe what is coming out. And these trailers, jesus christ.

I hope she plays differently from Bruce.

Why am I doubting Rocksteady though?

Robin joining the game as a pre-order character. I guess he won't be a part of the main story, hopefully they find some kind of play in the story for him.

Awesome, hands down. :bowdown: seems like the cryptographic sequencer will be used to solve riddles now.

:bowdown: Deal sealed. This is a must get.

I would think the first game made that so. And the first trailer was what would have sealed it.

The Penguin is Aussie?

Re: Batman: Arkham City Announced

That's not an Australian accent, it's British.

Re: Batman: Arkham City Announced

Mon Jul 25, 2011 2:53 pm

How would you know what an Australian accent sounds like?

Re: Batman: Arkham City Announced

Mon Jul 25, 2011 10:36 pm

Aussies were descended from British criminals.
The Penguin is British and a criminal.
That makes him an Aussie.

No one is getting crazy about this game yet?

Re: Batman: Arkham City

Thought it was a bit of a letdown, myself. I beat it in three days, and was thoroughly enjoying it, and then it just...ended. Then they forced me into another Catwoman mission, which was practically impossible because I'd not bothered to upgrade her at any point.

I really thought the story killed the game. Just give me the side missions, the Riddler, and it would've been a good game. Rather than trying to shoehorn in every villain under the sun with a ridiculously complex story that became impossible to resolve in the time they tried to do it in, and then forcing me along that path. Obviously it needed some sort of narrative, but it really didn't need to be as complex as it was. And killing Joker? Just no.

The biggest problem, though, was the final boss, which in no way felt like a final boss at all. In Arkham Asylum, you could tell that the final boss was coming, then go around and finish off anything you hadn't done Riddler-wise to make sure you had as many upgrades as possible. With Arkham City, there was no deviating from the story from the time Protocol Ten was activated, and I had no idea Clayface was the final boss until the ending cutscene.

On the other hand, the side missions, new takedowns, countering thrown objects, countering multiple people at once, dive bombing, smoke pellets...awesome. Despite beating the game a couple days ago, I'm still playing, and I haven't even started new game plus.

Okay so I just got this game, and it has frame stutters on cinematics. Why would they need cinematics anyway when the game looks exactly like it?
