Further Proof That Batman: Arkham City Will Be Incredible

Kotaku AU


I’m always keen to try and avoid the hype machine that comes with ‘AAA’ video games, but there are times when I get all googly-eyed. When I first saw this Batman: Arkham City demo, I got a little bit excited. Thankfully, video of what I saw has been revealed, and now we can all get googly-eyed together.

Batman: Arkham City, from what I’ve seen so far, is looking incredible. This is further proof of that fact.

    I’m glad they fixed the camera when fighting. Lost so many combos in AA because I couldn’t see where enemies were.

      It promises a fun yet strangely unintelligible boss fight.

    I remember thinking to myself when playing the original that the only thing that could be improved upon would be having Gotham to play around in.

    Win.

    Wow. I was desperately trying to convince myself that it would be fine to let this one slide till 2012.

    Damn it.

    Oh well, nothing to be done – I guess that I’d better start putting up ads to sell my first-born.

    Hmm, the voice acting is pretty garbage, but looks cool.

    I recently played through arkham asylum again, but the one thing that pissed me off was the over the shoulder can while batman is walking. I cant stand it! *crouch runs everywhere*
