New screenshots and details.

That one armed guy looks huge!

Speaking of guys with missing limbs, any word as to wether K.G.Beast might be in this one? That guy was always meant to be huge and agile. Would make for a fun rooftop chase/battle.

I know what I'm asking for my birthday this year! ;)

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Based on the video, it seems that you can control the speed when you're gliding, newer fighting combos and revised detective mode.

No doubt, this is a first day purchase for me. Hoping to see what kind of exclusives or purchase deals we get closer to the release day. I remember that the original game, was released with a $40 introductory price during the first week of release only. I'm hoping that they do that again for the sequel.

:up: Bring it on!!! October 18th can't come soon enough...

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Can't wait!

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

that was awesome!

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Outstanding!

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Good God. I dont think Ive ever wanted a game more. That was amazing. I have yet to buy a game on release day in years, maybe 10. This will break that streak. Followed shortly buy that Team Ico game :)

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

G4TV is indicating that this game is only 8 hours long.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

How could they possibly know that more than six months from release?!

Anyway, quality over length for me.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Wasn't that pretty much the length of the first game?

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

A good, solid 8 hours sounds fine to me. The first one was such a great surprise, I can't wait for Arkham City.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Its took 8 hours for the developers, who knew everything about the game, to get through it.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

So 15 at least for most people? sweet

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Yes. I have played through the first game in a single sitting several times.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

The first game took over 10 hours for me...trying to figure out the riddles and stuff...this game sounds to be about the same..

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

and I love Rocksteady for using a song from The Heavy...

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Wow that video is amazing.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Actually they recently stated 12-15 hours for the main campaign, and that is excluding the side-missions which there should be a lot of. Over 20 hours for everything.

Some of the villians leaked to the official website the last few weeks, via avatars, but were taken down. The game is huge, with at least a dozen or so villians, one of which was an awesome shock for me! This was a person that was not even mentioned in Arkham Asylum.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

My anticipation level for this game is only exceeded by Uncharted 3. I can not wait for this one!

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Any details on these villains?

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

There's one that's awesome, and wasn't even in the previous game.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Mr. Freeze?

His cell was in the game, but that was it.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Villians that I know about:


Also:



About that one villian that wasn't in the first game and the local gangs:



What about:

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

I hope it's Kite Man!

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

No love for Egghead or Crazy Quilt? :(

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

One of the developers made a joke about Crazy Quilt, so you never know.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

That's a hell of a collection of villains.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

I want Batmite.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

:banana:

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

I hope that the gameplay is 12-15 hours and not the 8 hours that I reported but I'm anxiously awaiting the release of this game and even though is going to be released in my "busy" time, I'll definitely set some time for it.

I'm also reading the "No Man's Land" arc in the Batman books and loving it so far. Hopefully the game incorporates some of the comic book storyline into the game.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Just a heads up, Amazon has this down to $56.99 with a $10 preorder bonus.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Anybody play both the PS3 and 360 versions of Arkham Asylum? I bought the previous game for PS3 for the Joker levels (which turned out to be underwhelming), but due to the ongoing Sony fiasco I'm limiting my PS3 purchases to exclusives only. Just wondering what I'll lose/gain from the 360 version.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

You're wanting to pick up the 360 version to replace your PS3 version? Why not just keep what you have?

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Sorry, I'm speaking in terms of buying Arkham City. I'm still leaning towards the PS3 version so I don't have to re-learn the controls, but I'm not thrilled about buying another PS3 game if I don't have to.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

I have both versions...I picked up the ps3 cheap to do the Joker stuff...besides that, no real difference. I think if I remember the xbox version was zoomed in more on Batman, but it was not an issue really. I would pick the version that has bonus stuff, and if there is no "joker" extras just pick the version you want...

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

How different could the controls be?

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

Many different?

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum Sequel
 

No. Not even a few different.
