New Batman: Arkham City Screens Almost Look Too Good To Be True

I never got into the first installment - only played it for about 2-3 hours. Is it one of those that takes a bit to get into?

Not really

I was hooked from the first minute

One of the few games I've actually played through to completion

!?!?!? the 1st was awesome! Doesn't take long to get into at all, does get better later on with new gadgets etc though.

If you still have it then give it another go, one of the best games I've played in the last year or so.

 

[Scutch]

Autumn 2011? Bloody hell. Looks great, mind.

 

[The Boosh!]

Judging by the revews of the new ones I will give the 1st one another go!

 

[sneeks]

The first game was excellent.

 

[Jamie]

Batman was one of the few games I did everything on. I think it was about 99% complete when I traded it in. Got all the riddles, trophies etc etc.

 

[AK]

Epic feeder!

 

[micp]

This looks epic.
Couldn't get enough of the first one.

 

[sargey]

Cat women's boobs look lush!

 

[andywright182]

Loved the first. This looks epic

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

Is this one meant to be a sandbox? Love Batman since the last game and watching the last 2 films.

Unbelievable detail on Harvey Dent's face. Are they PC screens?

 

[VeinAST]

Looks very good. I shall be purchasing.

 

[Rhino172]

oh my!

 

[Scutch]

Neat.

 

[Silent_Scone]

Only recently completed the original on hard. One of the best games I've ever played

 

[Scutch]

oh my!

Graphically that is stunning.

 

[m4rkie23]

+1

 

[VeinAST]

Ah awesome. This has improved on the graphics from last time and they were incredible then!

 

[Scutch]

^ Too right. That trailer was great. Looked like real actors.

 

[TrophyDan]

Played B AA all the way through - absolutley brilliant.
On par with the original half-lifes

 

[GarethM]

If that is actual gameplay, then the graphics are immense, but I cant see that it will be.

Great trailer though

 

[Silent_Scone]

It's not, it's full motion video. Its still using a modified Unreal 3 engine in game. If it's anything like Batman:AA it's 100 times better on PC with the 360 controller

Damn right. I came to a grinding halt on the original using K&B in Killer Croc's Lair. It was virtually impossible to control with the dodgy camera angle without falling into the bloody water.

I hope they capture the 'feel' of the original in the follow up. The scenery, characterisations, even the drab weather all added to the atmosphere of it imo.

One of my mates is developing this. She went to E3 for the whole duration too.

Jealous. Not my kinda game, but it looks pweety.

 

[_Logie]

Penguin is here.

 

[Alex H]

Really looking forward to this.

 

[Wilkeh]

Worth buying the first one? It's on Steam for £15. It's one of them games that I've never played. Fancy a good beat 'em up!

 

[Gareth]

It's been a lot cheaper, but it's still worth £15, a great game.

 

[Silent_Scone]

First one is pucker definitely worth the ££ if you haven't played it

 

[Philip.]

Properly looking forward to this!

 

[Wilkeh]

Might invest tonight then lads when I get home. Just watched a couple of videos and it looks fantastic. When's the new one out? Take it I've got plenty of time to complete the first before it does?

 

[Gareth]

October IIRC

 

[Wilkeh]

October IIRC

Ahh yes plenty of time

Cheers mate.

 

[Wilkeh]

Lmao! Look what Steam has to offer me -

How's that for a coincidence? Couldn't of timed it better!

 

[Gareth]

Lol VERY lucky!
