Batman: Arkham City - Part 5

[GamerSlyRatchet]

Ewww...mullets!

 

[PWN3R]

Mullet and all?

Needs more mullet.

 

[the amazing fro]

OOOH I love me some alternate costumes. Fingers crossed there are more.
Some other ones I would like to see would be:

Adam West batman.
Either the Batman begins or batman returns suit
Bob Kane batman
Zur-En-Arrh Batsuit

Thomas Wayne Batsuit
Jean Paul Valley Batsuit
Zebra Batsuit

A nightwing and classic burt ward esque alternates for robin would also be awesome.

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

Nobody seems to know for sure, but I wonder if the Adam West outfit would be legally weird. That...and watching him glide in that outfit would make my mind implode.

And I wonder which BTAS outfit they'll go with. Most people seemed to hate the redesigns by the final season...but if they go with the previous version, it'd look an awful lot like the Neal Adams outfit. And that Neal Adams outfit is ****ing awesome.

Robin should appear, he's in the comic, and i just see the whole sidekicks thing as ******** since we're having Batman and 2 "villains" help him out already.

I didn't follow enough earlier, so the sidekicks are Bane and.....

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

Catwoman, I assume.

 

[The Caped Knight]

Well Mr. J has seen better days here is The Black and White poster featuring The Clown Prince of Crime.

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

i'll be a very, VERY happy person if this game has the Batman '89 skin!

I want that Batman beyond skin.

If they release costumes as paid dlc, they won't be that much. So again, it doesn't matter. Everyone will have access to all the dlc regardless of where they preorder

Let's take the first game for example. There was that armored skin that we could use in the challenges room, but we had to complete the game to get that.
That's what I want for this game. I want to complete specific tasks to get the costumes, like it used to be in the old times.

I remember the first two God of War games had awesome alternate skins with different attributes to each and we had to go through some required things to get them, but by GOW 3, we had to buy the alternate skins and the game only would give you one after you completed it, which is a costume you used in the story anyway.

There's no sense of achievement if we buy it. There's where lies the difference to me. With the exception of the Beyond costume, which I'll get anyway, I don't feel like paying for the others, as I have no interest on them. But I'd be happy to get all of the costumes if they're unlockable in the game. At least to me, it's more fun to fight for them like we fight for trophies and achievements.

Was that what led to the costume change?

I never thought it was Bale's crying that made them change the suit. But, that too many people complained about the neck turning thing. I would have been fine if they had just altered the cowl for that and kept the rest as is.

I thought it was both.
I remember Bale complaining on how he couldn't move his neck and had to move the entire body to look back. It was certainly an improvement, but they didn't change just the cowl, but the entire suit.

It had too much going on, I thought. Too much going on in the legs, and the symbol was too small. I think the cowl is the best thing about it, though.

I also remember hearing that Nolan didn't even want the bat in the chest. Thought it was unnecessary. The suit already resembles a bat anyway. But WB pressured a little bit and he put a smaller bat in the chest.

Having an old and grumpy Bruce Wayne, voiced by Conroy, in our ear badgering us would make it all worth it, to me.

And he'd fit the role of Oracle and Alfred, while Barbara fits the role of Gordon.

Man, Rocksteady really could do a Batman Beyond game after the Arkham trilogy.

That Joker pic is amazing!

Agreed. I'd like the extra challenge to have do that. It'd also make for a great reason, aside from achievements/trophies to complete some of those tasks.

Though, getting platinum in a Batman game is incentive enough.

I thought it was both.
I remember Bale complaining on how he couldn't move his neck and had to move the entire body to look back. It was certainly an improvement, but they didn't change just the cowl, but the entire suit.

What I remember him complaining about were headaches. He seemed to take it in stride in the interviews I saw, where he figured Batman was supposed to be pissed off anyways.

I do remember lots of fans still complaining about the "hero turn". I wish they had just changed the cowl alone, and keep the rest as is.

I also remember hearing that Nolan didn't even want the bat in the chest. Thought it was unnecessary. The suit already resembles a bat anyway. But WB pressured a little bit and he put a smaller bat in the chest.

I remember hearing that too. Always thought it sounded too far fetched to be true, though. Although, considering how tiny the symbol is on TDK suit...maybe there was truth to it.

And he'd fit the role of Oracle and Alfred, while Barbara fits the role of Gordon.

Could be pretty cool, the more I think about it. I'd like them to crank out a few more Bruce Wayne-Batman games before they go to that well, though.

But the concept of could work well.

Awesome Joker pic! I finally pre-ordered the CE. I pre-ordered it from Amazon.co.uk first, but then I found a local store that offered the Robin pre-order bonus, so I got it from them.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

Will catwoman have any alt. skins, does anyone know?

 

[TX85]

Anybody know If Rocksteady has even hinted at a 3rd Arkham game?,And how long do they have the Batman licence for?

 

[taskmaster]

We know that Robin will be getting an alt. so it'd be a safe bet that she's getting one too. I'm guessing that if they have one more big announcement it'll be playable Nightwing in challenge maps. He'll probably get an alt. too, hopefully the disco costume.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

Cool, I hate that all of these dlc are exclusive to certain stores.

Yes. They said we can find hints in this game, like we found hints in the first one.

Hopefully they people who are saying that these are all early access and you can unlock them in the actual game are right.

 

[SpideyVille]

Hopefully they people who are saying that these are all early access and you can unlock them in the actual game are right.

I actually think they'll be available as DLC that you have to pay for online later on. That's usually what happens when certain games have different kinds of DLC at certain stores. They're usually released eventually as part of a DLC pack or individually.

 

[taskmaster]

I remember you COD: World at War if you ordered at Gamestop you got access to a gun you needed to get to level 60 or something to get if you didn't pre-order. I hope the costumes are like that at least. I'd understand selling Robin because that's a whole character with his own moves and gadgets but paying for costumes isn't cool.

Although I'd prefer them to already be in the game, I can see them releasing a costume pack like they do with the latest Mortal Kombat game.
