My Take on the next Batman Arkham series game!! 

Just finished the arkham city and still trying to obtain every riddle, I just come up with a small plot!! 

Feel free to criticiZe... :)

The title would be Batman Gotham World   

The story picks up  months after Arkham City. 

Villains that were able to escape captivity or roam free from Arkham City game:
Calendar man
Bane
Killer croc
Deadshot
Poison Ivy
Solomon Grundy
Clayface
Harley quinn


These are the main plot of the game and when I say that you are using Batman, means you control him as you progress to the main story..


As you start the game, a CGI scene is presented, Its raining hard, batman walking towards the scene/ alley where his parents died. As the CGI is shown, the batman Gotham world title is shown, rocksteady presents.... 
Then batman kneel down and puts a roses in the floor( where his parents was shot). This time you can hear a voice, you are not sure whos voice is it, the voice is telling about batman's past just like how hugo strange was saying in arkham city when you play the tape in the alley where bruce's parenta was shot.
As the voice finally stops, batman while kneeling, the floor/ ground suddenly breaks/collapses and batman falls down.. You can clearly hear now the voice, it was actually scarecrow. Then batman while falling......

Then Bruce suddenly wakes up, he was just dreaming. He was asleep while sitting on the chair in front of his batcomputer/databases.

The intro scene, CGI scene:
Setting: Batcave
- Bruce is sitting while watching news on the batcave.this was after he wokes up with the dream. ( The News is all about Arkham's current state prior to joker's death. And the soon to be destruction of Arkham ) ( vicky vale was broadcasting) 
- Bruce while watching, can't help not to think about what happened to Joker. 
Then Alfred enters...
- Bruce told alfred that he may finally step down as the knight crusader of gotham, why? Because the only nemesis that he felt saving all the years of him being the Batman, finally dies.. Bruce is kind of confuse on this game whether he would still continue to be Batman.
- Oracle enters with Robin, both of them encouraging Bruce that Gotham needs him.

After the CGI scene...

Setting: Solomon Courthouse (a quick CGI scene of the people and setting of the courtroom) 
Characters on the court:
Gordon, penguin, two face, jack ryder, and officials of GCPD
-A soon to be trial is about to start.
- Judge among other people are waiting for someone before the session begins.
** This time we are about to use Bruce Wayne. Bruce is walking in the aisle ( you control him, walking till he reach his seat ) 
- you can hear lots of buzz and crowds starts to get noisy
- then judge speaks and calm everybody.

- The purpose of the trial is whether to keep Arkham City closed to the public and remain as prison ( its what Bruce wants prior to the start of Arkham City) or to dessimate the whole city. The judge and higher officials of the game wanted Arkham to go down, because it is a city of crime where criminals and mobs hide.
- Bruce oppose to this and wanted Arkham City to stay as it is. He believes that if Arkham City was destroyed, criminals would roam free from Arkham and would even cause greater issue if they found a new home, That is Gotham.
- judge won't listen and has decided that destroying the city would bring justice and peace. 
- Penguin also oppose to this and we see him share his thoughts.
- crowds go crazy... 

Alfred, Robin and oracle watching from the Batcave... Was also worried about the trial

still on courthouse:
- Bruce was not himself, he was clearly blocked out of everything and we see him just staring at the people, while the crowd share their fair of ideas. ( oracle: what is Bruce doing? He was there to convince the judge/officials to stop from destroying Arkham)
- Then suddenly the windows on the courthouse breaks, then a big explosion, smoke and poison filled the room, the judges and higher officials were all taken by group of thugs, Two face and penguin escapes, Bruce coughing from smoke was finally able to pick himself up and runs to the backroom. Gordon and some cops tried to catch up with the judges. ( robin while on the batcave wears his suit and uses his bike and rendevouz to the courthouse)
- Bruce contacts alfred and ask for a drop point of his suit and also of his vehicle. 
( quest updated: rendezvous with the batmobile )
- this time you control Bruce again, going for the batmobile/suit
- the drop point is Somewhere in the alley where Bruce parents was murdered, a jet drops the batmobile. 
- Bruce opens the car, and then his suits shows up, he wears it. The batsuit is somewhat rusty this time with some scratches and tears. Then for the 1st time, you get to use a vehicle. Batman now drives the mobile and we tried to catch up with the thugs. A gprs tracker is shown to give us the location of the thugs. 
- the thugs driving a truck, you are trailing a 2 trucks.. They are going to the bridge that connects Gotham and Arkham. The 2 trucks split their directions.
- then robin on his bike suddenly shows up, then bruce ask him to catch the other one. 
- Batman is wondering if the thugs are going to Gotham, because the bridge was not lowered. Then Batman finally catch up, the truck stops. Then after you use the mobile, batman walks out of the vehicle.( you control him, walking through the truck) then the truck explodes.
- Batman scans the truck to see whether what remains of the people inside but he was shocked and learned that it was a trap/setup. The truck was empty and was remotely controlled.
- then after batman learns about it, ( CGI scene- batman contacts robin ) the trap was all about capturing Robin.
- meanwhile, robin chasing the other truck, was taken down, he was stripped by a wire so he fell why driving on his bike. Then the truck stops. A CGI scene is shown again. Then the backdoor of the truck opens, here you get to see scarecrow comes out........


Setting: Near Gotham water district tunnel

Note: Gotham General Hospital was outside Arkham city :)

-as scarecrow comes out of the truck, robin was surprised and was poisoned by scarecrow, using his wristwatch to poison him. ( welcome to my world robin, scarecrow says). then scarecrow leaves with some thugs carrying robin.
-meanwhile, after batman knows that robin maybe in danger, because he was not responding with the call.. you get to control batman then rushes to the scene where robin was stripped from his bike.
-here, some thugs of scarecrow were waiting for you and you have to fight them.. after you beat them...
-batman sees robin's bike, and learned that he was captured. now, batman scans the area to find clues where robin was taken, ( quest updated: scan area for clue) you get to scan the area for poison/smell of poison and trace it to find robin. ( along the way where you control batman for tracing the poison, batman feels kind of dizzy because of the small particles of poison that ofcourse he is smelling).
-as you control batman, you are now approaching Gotham River. then the traces of poison stops, batman has no idea of where robin was taken. From this point batman is now on Gotham River. the trail of poison stops, and a quick CGI scene is shown where you get to see the whole Gotham map/city.
-batman contacts oracle and told her that robin was caught by scarecrow, and that he has no idea what scarecrow is up to.oracle replies and told batman that though robin might be in danger, there is a much more issue that surrounds the status of the city. oracle told batman that the Gotham General Hospital was being contaminated and people/patients all over the hospital was taken out. The city was in panic. Oracle told that the hospital was being poisoned. some patients died of it. Batman already knows ofcourse that it was scarecrow's doing but doesnt know what he is up to.
-then Oracle ask batman to meet up with his dad at Robinson Park. ( quest updated: go talk to Gordon) The park was also the venue where a huge ceremony/congress is held. Reporters and policeman, officials where there and helicopters on top circling the park.


Setting: Robinson Park
-As you control batman towards the park. Gordon was waiting for you inside his car. A CGI scene is presented, batman rides inside the car, gordon tells him that the situation is getting worse. officials have declared that arkham city was to be destroyed and all people should get out while the countdown begins. the officials stated a 3 way stages before the destruction of arkham. Batman told gordon that robin was captured and that scarecrow maybe plotting something big. Gordon replies and feels sorry, and told batman the official's 3 stages. first stage, CODE BLACKOUT.. meaning total regulatory ban of all electricity, broadcasting around the city of arkham. 2nd stage, CODE BLACK WAR, meaning, killing of all thugs and running prisoners around arkham. and the 3rd stage, CODE BLACK DEATH, in this stage, gordon tells batman that a mass poisoned will be unleashed towards arkham to infest the whole city before it will be destroyed by uhmm missiles I'm thinking. Batman was intrigued with the poisoned and ask gordon to investigate about what chemicals or what poison is to be used for the last stage. ( prior to this scene, you already know that batman doesnt want arkham to be destroyed but to be closed right? :) )
Batman ask gordon to watch out, for maybe there are bigger things happening here, batman suspects that someone his controlling the higher officials and that he needs to investigate more. ( the two separate ways now)
-some part of the city now is already blackout...

-Oracle hears every word his father told batman and then talks to batman and tells him that he should first investigate the Gotham Light and power.. it is located far beyond the gates of arkham ( if you know the gotham map :) )
- Batman needs to delay the stages while trying to figure out whos behind everything. so you need to go to Gotham Light and power to return some lights that were shutdown.
- ( quest updated: go to Gotham Light and Power) as you control batman after talking to oracle, a voice speaks to you via your signal, it was scarecrow and he is warning you not to do anything to stop what was being set for arkham or else he will kill robin..... batman was furious and can't do anything and ask scarecrow if he has anything to do with the stages/destruction of arkham.. Scarecrow doesn't answer and hangs up. after the conversation, batman was subdued by a huge force knocking him out. ( you don't know who did it )

-this time you are about to control Robin.............. :)

Very great in everything BUT the title. :) If you change it, this may be a perfect idea.

nathan02 - 1/3/2012, 11:29 PM

I go with Jolt17 Great story, terrible title. Perhaps if you change it to Batman: Arkham Annihilation? Using it with the title Arkham, but using some of your story points such as the destruction of Arkham.

Still great ideas, looking forward to hearing your other thoughts! :)

I still think it should be Batman: Gotham City. Plain and simple. Now that you gave us a specific scene, what would be the general outline of the story? What's the objective in your game?
nathan02
nathan02 - 1/4/2012, 9:08 PM
Thanks. I'm about to post the next scene/plot.
Btw, the objective is to stop the destruction of arkham as what the higher ops want. The plot will be specified on my next post :)

Better, but I'm still not big on it either...that's completely okay, though. I don't blame you, because it IS damn hard to find a title; especially for stuffs like this! Probably it will just be fine when made into an actual stuff (Arkham City sounded ridiculous to me at first, but it's now totally cool after the game's release).

I still think Arkham... something will be a more logical choice, though, considering the titles of the series so far. But that 'something' is what's hard, so whatever I guess. Keep up the good work! :)

nathan02 - 1/5/2012, 1:15 AM
hehe thanks... It can be Batman: War of Gotham, cause This take of mine focuses an all out war between officials/policeman and prisoners, batman ofcourse vs a much larger group of villains.. :)

nathan02 - 1/5/2012, 1:16 AM
well if its a children's game its easy, Batman: Arkham Adventure lol :)

Decent read, but wasnt Bruce AGAINST the developement of Arkham City? I coulda sworn he realized how quickly such a prison could get out of hand and that the game started with him trying to shut it down. Also, I dont like the idea of Batman considering quitting simply because the Joker is dead. I know, they're arch enemies, but it's not like Joker being gone means that the rest of crime in Gotham just magically stops, so Bruce still has a mission to complete. Overall though, some nice ideas.

nathan02 - 1/5/2012, 9:55 AM
Yeah bruce wants arkham city down, but as if he can still change it? The situation on arkham is already fixed, and he cnt do anything about it :)
And about quitting, well I just want to give the story somewhat a different take.. Coz on this game I was gonna put some scenes where batman was hallucinating and seeing joker, ofcourse because of scarecrows poison..Rocksteady has their fair share of flaws with their story too right??? :)

Nice. Submit it to Rocksteady, see what they can do. I like the idea of switching between Batman and Robin. Better title: Batman Arkham Nightmare.
