Batman : Arkham Origins (2013) Asylum Prequel

[Henry Morgan*]

Arkham Origins PS3 Skins ...

LOL

Look at that




I want the Dark Knight suit!

I hope the 66 Batsuit makes suits from other films a possibility. I'd love to see suits for TDK, Begins, 89, and even Returns done as DLC.

 

[Bardoon]

AzBats looks AWESOME!

Too bad I'm getting the 360 version. I wonder what its two first skins are going to be? Any rumors yet?

The only Copperhead I know is that from the Justice League TV series.

 

[Deckard]

Apparently Catwoman + Scarecrow = Copperhead. Also is it, is she a he? Batman said it's supposed to be male, is that a mistake he's made or is this some kind of tranny J. Edgar Hoover villain?

I don't care. Pair her up with Grundy already!

I would be down for a DLC suit from all the movies.

Ok - new trailer is very cool and the game is looking mighty fine so far. Having said that;

Personal gripe/rant. I'll put in spoiler tags for those who don't want it forced upon them. Read at own peril!!

Spoiler

Batman literaly has the best and largest rogues gallery ever created, so why do they feel the need to include villains 'from the greater DCU' as the devs put it, and who aren't usually associated with Batman/Gotham.

Sure, Copperhead looks cool here, but she's not a character I particularly want to see in a Batman game. That's a spot that could've been filled by a regular Gotham character.

I suppose there could be some reasoning behind it such as they want to capitalise on the success of the Arkham games so now they're shoehorning in other DCU villains (and possibly heroes too) to try and elevate those character's statuses more. That's what it feels like to me anyway since there are so many Bat-rogues that could be used in these games instead that haven't been seen yet.

As a Batman only fan I kinda feel like I'm having non-Gotham characters forced upon me in this game, as daft as that sounds.

The first two games were definitely 'Batman World' only, but I get the feeling that from now on this franchise will expand a lot more into other DC characters territories. Doesn't mean I won't buy them and enjoy them though, but they may not have the same regard to me as the first two games.

Ah well.... Bring on "Arkham 3: DC Superheroes"

Yes that was all pure rant from me, but I'm just not a fan of non-Batman characters mixing into his media. I guess mainly because I have no interest/knowledge/investment/attachment to those characters. I can enjoy other heroes/characters in their own movies, books etc. but when they mix with Batman it feels kinda forced.

There've been a fair few incarnations of Batman over the years that seem to depict him in his own universe, so it's not difficult to think of him in his own world, and that's the Batman I grew up with and enjoy. I'm sure I'm not the only one. But that's sortof the reasoning behind this rant/way I think.

Anyway, regardless of my own personal views I'm still very much looking forward to this game and can't wait for October!

I want the Dark Knight suit!

I know, as much as I already know I'd love the game, just being able to play in TDK suit would literally make it my favorite game of all time.

 

[GasparZizou]

So they turned Copperhead into a chick? That's cool, she seems interesting from what I can see in the trailer.

EDIT: After a little research, Copperhead IS a woman in the new 52.

Personally I have no complains about this game expanding a little, after all the plot justifies it but I completely get where you come from.

I was a little uninterested in the early development of this game, I've been more into comics lately but this trailer kinda regained my interest for the game, I was going to pick it up anyway, but now I'll be following it's development.

So by your logic...Deathstroke should have been left out too, seieng as he is primarily a Nightwing villain and generally an DCU villain.

I think the characters being used work for this storyline. Black Mask wants Batman dead. He's using the best assassins in the DC U to get the job done. Why would he limit himself to just the killers of Gotham? It's not like they have had any success in the past. Even Black Mask has failed at finishing off the Bat. Why wouldn't he bring in out of town talent to get the job done?

I have high hopes for this game. I didn't care much for Arkham Asylum. I loved the gameplay in Arkham City but it still had the bad designs from Asylum, and the story and Gotham prison thing wasn't my cup of tea.

This game looks like it will be more traditional Batman. No whacky prison city, no whacky villains. They've also improved the designs, namely Batman's suit.

This will come out about 4 days after my birthday. I'm excited!

 

[Darth Zangetsu]

Where is Lady Shiva and Sensei? Shiva is the deadliest assassin in the world. It would be odd for her not to be in this.

They're not done announcing villains yet...

I kept waiting for you to say you were joking. Your post just baffles me.

Got really excited when I heard that copperhead was going to be in this game.
Was severely let down when I saw what it turned out to be.....
