If only I didn't have a giant pile of games to play, with more on the way.

I like Monolith quite a bit, but I'll need to pass!

If I wasn't balls deep in Tribes Beta and SMNC Beta I would be down for this, to many games.

I still don't know what this game is about. TF2-esq?

I played the demo of this and did not like it

Mystyr_Eon Feb. 8, 2012 at 8:02 p.m.

I was in the beta and I tried 10 times to get into one match and matchmaking just...sat there so I said screw it and uninstalled

First person shooter with similar experience-based progression elements to Call of Duty, namely the class customization.

The modes are Team Deathmatch, Psych Warfare (basically Sabotage), and Fumigation (basically Domination).

same...but there is a demo out now that lets you play for 60 minutes that actually worked. Played 10 minutes; thought it sucked. Best thing about it is the little animated Batman and Joker cartoons on loading screens and menus.

Looks like dumb fun.

Love this game so much! Wondering if GB will have a review...

Wow, that cursing is really out-of-place for an otherwise silly cartoon-violence type of game.

Napalmon Feb. 8, 2012 at 8:40 p.m.

I might get this for the PlayStation 3 because you know, free multiplayer.

What a waste of a license.

This basically looks like a cross between TF2 and Bloody Good Time. If it had just been a new IP I might give it a fair shake, but this whole product turns me off like any bad licensed product would.

How hard would it have been to just reuse the Batman, Nightwing, Robin, and Catwoman models from Arkham City and pit them against the actual Joker, Two-face, Black Mask, and the Riddler? Or just recycle all of those promotional Batman skins as different characters. It's not like the game needed to make any sense, if funding of the existing game proves anything.

@Napalm: why not PC then?

XivSpewon Feb. 8, 2012 at 10:16 p.m.

I got it on Steam, it's neat, easily worth $15. The amount of fun it is to use grappling hooks and gliders in team deathmatch is nothing to shake a stick at.

Yeah haven't been paying attention to the Darkness 2.

censoring is almost always worse than hearing a simple "fuck"

Grillbaron Feb. 8, 2012 at 11:41 p.m.

so TF2 with batmen and jokers. okay sure why not

manbot47on Feb. 9, 2012 at 2:32 a.m.

@onan: maybe because this was developed by Monolith not Rocksteady

CookieMonsteron Feb. 9, 2012 at 4:11 a.m.

I think they've nailed how shitty the imposters of joker and batman are supposed to be pretty well.

Wonder if there will be a community in the long run
