Batman: Arkham City



Ok, now this is a game I was definitely looking forward to hearing more about.

Arkham Asylum was the best thing to happen to Batman since Christopher Nolan. The original teaser trailer, however, left much to be desired. There was a ton of teaser info in the first trailer, but nothing solid. While this trailer doesn't debut anything really "new" other than another tease, it showcases some fucking BEAUTIFUL graphics. The thing is, they don't look too far off of an in-game engine. Definitely within the confines of something the PS3 is capable of, if not a gaming PC.

-spoiler alert-
I was a little surprised that the figure (and new big baddie) ends up being Hugo Strange. Although he's Batman's first reoccurring character, based on the dialogue I would have thought they'd go with Dr. Hurt, one of Batman's newest (and greater) foes.

Oh well, either way, I'm confident that the game will be just as good, if not better than the original (Dark Knight anyone?).


Also big was the announcement that it will be out in Fall 2011, assuming that it doesn't get delayed into Q1 2012.
