Last year Rocksteady Studios took all gamers and avid comicbook fans by storm. That storm was Batman Arkham Asylum. It has since been hailed as one of the greatest superhero game(if not the greatest) of all time, with several awards and near perfect scores all around for every console.
We've waited some time now for any shots and just about three weeks ago our wait was over when Bats himself (with a angry grin as usual) was accompanied by no other than Ms. Selina Kyle herself, aka Catwoman. Now what is this feisty kitty's role in the game? Well according to a lot of different sites, she is trying to escape the next fellow up:
Harvey "Two Face" Dent, and if you want to know more about his role and hers just continue reading!
Two Face I must admit looks good, but in some way I personally think they should've done a more "Aaron Eckhart" face on him but he still look fantastic!
Now what about Roman Sionis, or as some of you know by the the comics and more commercially by the constant fanboy wish to be in the Batman 3 movie: Black Mask. What is his role? As you might see down at this page; Bats smashes two henchmen's heads but the one to the right seem to have a whole white mask over his face. Maybe this is some sort of reference? I don't know! He is probably one of Jokers henchmen but until I see the rest of his face I just want to speculate!
NOW ABOUT REAL SPECULATING; gamers and cbm fans alike have speculated since Batman Arkham Asylum about what the story will be and still there are no sure bets but THIS IS WHAT I KNOW, or at least believe to know:
"Warden Quincy Sharp has moved Arkham Asylum to Gotham City. Both Arkham and Blackgate cant hold the criminals of Gotham so Sharp buys out a large section of Gotham's slums named Arkham City. The warden goes on to buy the services of a mercenary group under the name of "Tyger". If this wasnt fishy enough just wait until you read this: Sharp needs someone to oversee this operation so he contacts a psychiatrist with the name of Hugo Strange! This of course does not bode well as he has his own plan for the inmates of Arkham City.
It is also known that Two Face is out to murder Catwoman to mark his territory and gain status. The Caped Crusader of course cannot allow this to happen because of his former romantic past with Catwoman and needs to get this city made up by the criminally insane and scum alike under control."
I also know is that the Joker's voice himself, and known in some other galaxy as Luke Skywalker, Mark Hammil has confirmed that this will be the final appearance of the Joker, at least voiced by Hammil.
Now what exactly does this mean? Can we have a Batman game without the Clown Prince of Crime? Does the Joker actually die in this or is he locked up for good after this? Joker is essential to Bats and I am pretty sure Batman wont kill the living insane asylum but people please speculate here!
However, one thing is sure: This game will be The Dark Knight of superhero games!
Now I present to you screen shots from ingame action.
Let the awesomeness officially commence!!
