Interesting, I didn't know that. I think most of the boss battle were okay, with the obvious exception of the final Joker one. It was very out of context with the rest of the game. Then again I find a lot of final boss battles in games are off since they "need" to be so big.

I agree. The Joker boss battle was the only letdown in the whole game. It just felt like they gave up at that point.

C'mon now, that was not official first of all, and secondly this is the first look at the character.

Skins, depending on where you preorder. I guess the one next to Beyond is Frank Miller's Dark Knight?

I'm sure they'll all be available as DLC later, so I can hardly wait to sell mine on Ebay for $40

Love the Animated Series one. I rarely buy DLC, but I might actually grab this one.

Re: Batman: Arkham City Thread
I really want TAS and Batman Beyond skins. That's a euro link though...any reason the same skins wouldn't be available in the US?

Were there any alternate skins for Arkham Asylum? I don't remember any being available.

I have an armored Batman suit, but I don't remember if that was DLC or just something you got for finishing the game.

I like how the whole body is different on those, it's not just a skin.

Those different Batsuit designs are awesome. Hopefully they'll all be available at some point. I pre-ordered my copy of the collector's edition last week and can't wait to get it!

I would like to see an Adam West skin that also adds the "bam, pow, zap" type effects during combat.

An Azrael-Batman skin would also be neat.

For some reason that version of Robin reminds me of when Chris O'Donnell played him. I'd prefer him with the more shaggy look but whatever I guess.

That would be awesome! For the full experience you'd also need the music.
