That's the first thing I noticed! Personally, I don't prefer one over the other because they're just too different to compare them.

The game has a Christipher Nolan sence of darkness, and not only does the game look like either a heavy teen or even M rated title, but the Joker, and Killer Kroc are confirmed to be in it! I can't wait to pick this up on day one!!!

It could be the best adaptation yet of one of the graphic novels. More so then the films (Though the 90's animated series still takes the cake) The graphic novel, Arkham Asylum, which this game is obviously based on, was one of Batman darkest stories. He's trapped inside with all these criminals and he eventually starts questioning his own sanity. I hope they do something interesting with it. I'm surprised at the amount of people complaining how it looks... As much as I love Batman (1988), Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. Lets be honest. They weren't the most accurate adaptations. Batman in his best novels was an old guy. He's not Christian Bale, and this isn't supposed to be one of Batman's first outings. The Joker thankfully looks more like the actual Joker then Heath did. Heath was awesome, no doubt, but he didn't laugh uncontrollably when he killed someone, and his white face was merely face paint. It wasn't scarred white. I for one can't wait for this game because it could end up being the perfect one.

This is a dream come true if it turns out to actually be good. Batman's less than stellar videogame treatment really needs to be rectified. I would personally like to see a game adaption of The Dark Knight Returns some time in the future. It's structure could be converted into a game reasonably easily, what with their being a number of scenarios missions could be based on and a 'boss' type encounter at the end of every issue.

Isn't that the Croc guy? I'm not too familiar with the Batman vilains (except Joker, Penguin and Riddler :P)

u think they over did the make up on Heath Ledger's joker but not on Jack's joker??? In the first Batman, the joker looked like a damn clown.... they WAAAAAAAAYYYY over did Jack's joker make up. i thought they did it right with Heath Ledger... even tho it shouldnt even be makeup at all n he should have just been bleached white all over

Comic books in general need a good video game hit to keep them alive in the video game industry.

I am just hoping (alot) that they will not try to push for a Watchmen video game, in light of the new movie. That would piss me (and more) off in more way than one.

Graphically it looks ok. Though if there's not a decent story it will suck like the rest.

Yeah that is a bit odd....game sucks already, they clearly know nothing about the batman comics, story will suck because of this, no one wants to play a 3rd person singleplayer game that doesn't have a decent story.

It's a Batman game... It's gonna be bad. As good as it might look it's gonna be bad. I bet it will get a 6.0 or lower here on Gamespot. Thats just what I think though.

looks pretty interesting so far. seems like the first time in forever that they are taking batman seriously when it comes to gaming. I wish they would take off that outer underwear look though. then his suit will be more believable. Also i hope that there is an alternate skin for the joker because after ledgers performance i want a less cartoony look. I'm glad this one wasn't made with kids in mind.
