Will buy next gen version.

I hope it's good. Cool trailer. I'll be getting for the PC.

Meh, still not very excited about if for being a prequel instead of a sequel and then also tacked on Multiplayer confirmed.

Well, but at least this time I'm pretty neutral about the news that the game will feature Deathstroke

Will buy next gen version.

Has next-gen version already been confirmed? So far, I've heard it's only going to be released for current-gen.

It's not Rocksteady though...

Also, prequel mehfjujkjfghfhtr

I was worried about the absence of Rocksteady too but it looks like it is being developed by a bunch of old Retro employees. That and the Game Informer preview has me stoked.

Will buy next gen version.

Looks sweet.

Well that was a horrible trailer.Minishdriveby

Agreed.

What do you expect? The progression the series made in just two games was ridiculous, after I finished Arkham City I knew that the next game was gonna be a prequel. 

[spoiler] Besides, how do you follow up after KILLING THE JOKER? [/spoiler]

It's simple we kill the bats

Lol, how can you say it looks 'sick' from a CGI cutscene which features one fight?

Until I see gameplay I'm not interested.

With any luck Rocksteady are hard at work on a sequel whilst this is being done, after **** died there is still a lot of ways to take it, especially following Batman's emotions.

I consider the Arkham games to be among the best of this generation with Arkham City being one of the very best games of all time.

I have no doubt it will be a great game like Arkham City but the trailer wasn' t that good. Personally, I didn' t notice anything "origin" related.

How would you follow up in a way that's better than Arkham City, is what I meant. I mean, they made a pretty ballsy move.

BATMAN'S CAPE AND COWL ARE PURPLE. This is an outrage.RandoIphF

PuffDaddy was right after all. I demand his ban be overturned!

Kinda a weak trailer IMO.

Its the world of comic books. Nobody ever stays dead. Ever.

I really hope the game turns out great, but I can't say I'm looking forward to it because I was pretty disappointed by Arkham City.Canvas_Of_Flesh

How in God's name was ANYONE disappointed by Arkham City? The game improved a butt ton of small things, and added new things. It's more or less the objectively superior game.

I've gone into great detail about how, objectively, AC is clearly the superior game but ultimately my theory is that many people preferred the more linear construction of Asylum.

Regardless of personal preference, City quite literally improved and expanded on just about everything present in Asylum.

I thought the combat and stealth were vastly improved...  And the City was a far cooler location for the game IMO.

I know Arkham City is 'better' but i preferred playing Asylum if that makes sense.

I understand the position of those who didn't appreciate the open world structure and felt it fragmented the experience (a common issue with open world constructs) but everything else in City was a pronounced improvement. They essentially took every component present in Asylum and expanded upon it, making the combat, detective mode, traversal, stealth and even the boss fights better.

Even assuming somebody subscribes to the notion that more isn't necessarily better, most of the improvements in Arkham City were optional additions that didn't require the player use them unless they wanted a deeper experience with more variety and combat options.

I know Arkham City is 'better' but i preferred playing Asylum if that makes sense.

Ilovegames1992

Arkham Asylum is a more cohesive experience in terms of narrative and construction so I think your preference makes sense if that is the type of game you prefer.

Also, both games are brilliant so no worries either way.  

I consider the Arkham games to be among the best of this generation with Arkham City being one of the very best games of all time.

This game looks like it will be good but it also looks like it is going to be a redundant sequel in most regards.

The Kotaku preview was very critical of the lack of new features, which is consistent with this theory. That said more of Arkham City is a good thing and I'm sure I will enjoy it. But I'm not expecting anything revolutionary of Rocksteady proportions.

So, Deadshot, Dark Mask, and Deathstroke have been reveiled. As far as I can tell, none of them are linked other than that they are all bad and have influence in Gotham.... Here's hoping that the next assassin reveal is Scandal Savage.

Looks good. I remember when super hero games were never any good. But that's changed now.
