With what some of the community has been customizing the past few days, I pray that some DLC or extras like these make it into the game:

I would love to see some Batsuit DLC's. All of those are great in my opinion although I'm more partial to the last two.
 
There hasnt been any word on any actual alternate costumes in the game?
 
I'm still holding out hope for an Adam West costume, as that would be awesome.
 
Just the armored suit from the Wal-Mart pre-order.

Perhaps they want us to be surprised.
 
Can't wait to pick this up and play it with the Dark Knight soundtrack.
The game itself already seems to be using some of The Dark Knight's score. If the thugs notice you in the last room, I've noticed it plays the "action" theme from TDK that played on the trailers and such.
 
They completely scrapped it.

I know internet petitions aren't all that effective, but I've really been giving serious thought to starting one.

I'm sure there are plenty of people who would sign one to have it released. Hell, even on iTunes.
 
I recently did a trade in with Amazon.com (unloaded a lot of DVDs I now own on Blu-ray and some PS3 games I'm finished with) and got enough credit so I could get this game for free. So I applied the promotion code and ended up getting this with over $10 still remaining on my gift card balance.
 
I'm really liking the demo. But if the entire game plays like that, I feel like it's going to be more of a rental then a buy.
 
You mean like going from fight stage to stealth stage? It probably will be set up very similarly to that with a detective sequence thrown in here and there. Plus boss battles of course.

I'm sure it will be more varied. It is only a demo after all. Just a little taster.
 
Hmmm my favourite was Val Kilmer's. Minus the nipples of course. That looked so sleek and organic.
 
Where's the skin for the black and silver batsuit used at the end of B&R?


Somebody is slacking. :hehe:

Yeah, it feels very....hmm...."arcade-y". That's not to say it isn't fun. But I don't think that something like this (if it's like this) is worth the 50+ dollars I have the game paid off for.

The demo makes the game feel like it's rushing me forward. This is realistic because I'm supposed to be chasing someone, but I'm supposed to be stealthy too. So I'm supposed to rush while taking my time...Does that make sense?

I also feel like the boss and character interactions will be one or two time affairs. Like you fight Zsaz and then we might see him later on, but I feel like these characters are there more to be like "Hey, remember me?!" Than an intricate part of the story.

This isn't bad so much as it brings me back to that "arcade" feel.

And the story seems to be no more complicated than: Joker tricked you into bringing him back to Arkham, where he breaks out people to fight you and try to kill you.

I hope gameplay diversifies a bit and the story gets much deeper.

I mean it's not supposed to be a horror game, but if they had added in things to make you feel affraid of being out in the open..Maybe it would add a new feel for me. I'm not affraid of the bosses or thugs. I feel like I'm not locked in with them....They're locked in with me. And despite quoting Rorschach, that was the very premise behind arcade beat-em ups of yesteryear.
 
So how many more days guys, until this game is released?

BTW, I know this is off-topic but it's hard to believe Sean Penn's b-day is on the same day as Robert De Niro's, anyways, happy birthday to y'all Sean and Robert. Keep the good films coming!
 
I know as of now I only plan to rent it and see if I like it enough to buy...not sure I'll want to as I get bored of most actiony beat-em-ups after I beat them.

I kind of want an animated series skin for Batman...how awesome would it be to play through it as the animated Batman when everything else is all realistic looking. :p

Yeah I agree, now that would be cool! This game is going to raise the bar for all batman games in the future, I know that for sure.
