    I'm not really feeling to design of Harley Quinn in Rock Steady's universe. She should be both sexy and conservative. Her model in AA is a bit too much for me. She does look similar to the girl in the second picture. What game is that? The Vampire Masquerade game for the PC?

    except the dual ponytails (and alot of eyeshadow) I cant say I see alot of similarities here. If we´re going to start comparing people with the same haircut or haircolor we would go on forever. :)

    Harley Quinn's new design reminds me a bit of Bad Girl from No More Heroes. I know she's wearing what's supposed to be a nurses outfit, but the skirt and cleavage I find is what gets me.

    I think she's stupid. I found the original really hot, but this one is just... no. She even seems to have a different personality.

    To be honest, my first thought was the lady with the saw blade lollipop from Condemned 2.

    I'm not really liking this Harley Quinn either. They did a good job on the Joker, they really should've based it more on her original look instead of going with something completely new.

    I'm not liking her also, I think she looks terrible myself.

    Yeah she looks terrible. I think the put to much focus on making her blond with a big chest. I'd prefer a different Harley Quinn.

    I quite like her new look, I admit it is a big difference to her usual outfit and costume. But this isn't too bad.

    Same here.

    I frown upon this design decision, but it doesn't break the game...  Maybe a slight withdraw from the immersion of the universe, but mainly just an aesthetic placeholder for a character.

    She needs the dual ponytails to represent the jester cap she wore in her classic costume.  I like the new costume.  I doubt it's a permanent change, but for this approach to the franchise, I think it works well.

    I actually like it. Makes sense within the Arkham Asylum.

    Harsh.
    I think I need to see a bit more before passing any sort of judgment.
