No thanks. It's in the style of the cartoon, which I dislike. They need to bring out a game in the dark, adult style of Tim Burton's Batman and Batman Returns films - the best Batman flicks.

I thought the cartoon was dark enough, the 90's animated series did some justice.

Looks boring, I'll try the demo but I can't expect I'll enjoy it.

[Jackk]

ill rent it, not buy it though.

[Fez]

Apparently you get 15 hours out of this game, which ain't bad. Imma rent it too

[Fez]

Double post woo.

Demo now on the PSN store, don't know about Live.

[Jam]

Don't like the art style but the gameplay looks good, so I'l give this a rent.

[Neil]

Meh, too stealthy, don't like it, wont bother buying or renting this.

[Misawa]

The only reason there's so much hype around this game is because of The Dark Knight, yet it's styled on the cartoon.

[LuketheDuke]

Misawa, you may be right about the hype thing but if youve read the graphic novel of Arckham Asylum youd know its an exceptionally dark, melancholy piece of work. More so than TDK.

The darkest (and best) Batman flicks have been Batman and Batman Returns. I long for a game based on those.

[Fez]

I like it, it's intense and you get to plan and stuff.

Oh its just lost its appeal.

Not plan plan, just work out guard patterns and get into the right position.

[Misawa]

Well, I'll take some of what I say back after playing it. It's definitely a lot darker that I expected and in the UK it's got a 15 certificate, so that's a good thing. The demo is pretty cool and aesthetically it looks really good, but I'll wait for reviews on the full game before thinking about purchasing it.

Knowing that Mark Hamill voiced the Joker is insane. You could never distinguish that it was him in a million years. And Commissioner Gordon looks stupid.

[Fez]

And Commissioner Gordon looks stupid.

His old looks conflict with his physique, it's mind-boggling on how he looks that way. In the comic books he always looks frail and old, but wise and supportive. The guy who voices him too doesn't sound right, if you know what I mean.

I'm a fan of the animated series so when I heard Hamill was voicing Joker in this, I thought it was awesome. It's really weird though after having Heath's voice in my head, I have to go back to Hamill. They're both excellent performances though.

[Misawa]

I didn't even know Hamill voiced Joker in the animated series. Gordon's character card has him in his detective longcoat and hat, he looks decent, but in-game he's built like The Rock with an awfully wooden voice actor.

[Jam]

I started playing the demo then got a 'the disc is unreadable' error. What the hell? But by what cinematics I did see, the game looks very nice.

[Eight.]

The demo was so fantastic especially the gameplay but will it include more DC villans other than Joker, Zsasz, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn as in the cinematics it really showed mostly big monsters.

[Misawa]

I know that Killer Croc (mutated crocodile wrestler) and Bane (mutated pro wrestler) are in the game. Clayface is probably in it too.

[Fez]

Clayface, Scarecrow and Poison Ivy are all confirmed.

[samsaBEAR]

I played the demo and was immensely impressed. The graphics are what I'd expect from a game out now, but the gameplay, specifically the combat system is just perfect
