Arkham City: Be the Cat As Well As The Bat

Bayonetta's design team look upon awe at Catwoman's ass.

I really would have preferred Robin.  A little acrobatic character beating up ridiculously-huge thugs in his underwear?    Perfect.

I don't want to wait another minute of my life

Please tell me I'm not forced to control henchman-kissing, ass-flaunting Catwoman....This is a Batman game. 
 
Also, "OMGOSH! JEFF SAID THIS IS GONNA BE AWESOME! AH! GET HYPE!"  ...Relax, sheeple.

I thought this game was called Batman. I don't wanna play as catwoman. 

My only question is how much of the game are you playing as Catwoman? I would love to see a separate story line with her, considering she looks pretty fleshed out.

Curious how she will play into the game. Will you play as her for certain parts? Or will you just watch her kick ass from afar? Can't wait to hear more.

Not my fav catwoman design, but what ever. Here's hoping this isn't going to be some system exclusive shit like that joker stuff was for ps3.

I don't think I like this idea not cause it's Catwoman, because it's not Batman.
 
Why would I want to play as anything but 100% Batman?

I'm feelin' that music, oh man. Hopefully it's a little more meaningful than just a palette swap, like the PS3 Joker. That roof crawl looks essential, maybe something that Batman couldn't do. Either way, I love me extra content. :)

Looks awesome.

Meow!

I wish they would stop releasing spoilers. I already know I want this game, I hate seeing spoilers of which villains are confirmed in, and I hate things like this that would've cool to be surprised with. 
 
Oh well.

I think they sold me on Catwoman's character as a whole.

"Be the cat as well as the bat" is a pretty good caption.

From what i've read ( including an article on gamespot, http://e3.gamespot.com/story/6316489/batman-arkham-city-updated-hands-on-preview/?tag=updates%3Beditor%3Ball%3Btitle%3B1 ) she has a separate narrative but it takes place simultaneously with that of Batman's. basically you play certain story sections as her  (something along the lines of 10% of the whole story) but i believe you will also be able to switch to her and just roam the city and she has unique side missions. plus certain riddler trophies can only be obtained by using her character.  Also she will fight and move around in a completely different manner besides the ceiling climb :  " Catwoman will take a much more physical approach to getting around that relies on her trusty whip, parkour-like moves, and good old fashioned climbing and jumping"  
she also has a different detective vision (thief vision) which focuses on things she can steal and so forth. and ofcourse as you can see from the trailer she has a much lighter and faster fighting style with more flashy moves. plus she also has her own gadgets and a mini progression path in terms of upgrades.  
 
all in all its looks pretty awesome, it looks like they have created a whole other playable character and not just a re-skinned batman. cant wait for this game to come out!

Oh nice! I wonder if there will be coop at all?

THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME!!!! 
 
THIS GAME NEEDS TO BE OUT NOWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!

Joker looks like shit!I didn't think these graphics could get any better nice nice nice!

This. Is. Awesome

Guess shes not my prostitute... disappointing.

I'm actually not that excited as some others in here, but this trailer just took that up a notch. Damn, it was really well made, with the music, the different (ass)shots, and so on. 

Can't wait for this game!

Now don't that just look awesome!

When would you honestly choose to play as cat woman unless it was to do a hairy turd down an ally way and eat a pigeon with a broken wing?

Did Jeff actually say it was going to be awesome? Or was this just an occurrence in the alternate reality you live in where the use of the of the word "sheeple" isn't completely fucking horrible?

                   

               

She reminds me of that chick in borderlands for some reason.

Oh, for fuck's sake, shut up. 

                   

               

Hmm, I got nothing clever to say here.  Just cool, dude.

god dayum

great trailer, what song is that during the catwoman part?

God damn. I can't believe how awesome this looks. Batman: AA is the only platinum I have.

I didn't watch any videos for Arkham City, not even that trailer that was released in December.  You can't escape the spoilers if every game site has "You will play as Catwoman!" "Mr. Freeze is confirmed!" "Hugo Strange is the main villain" as the article titles. Same thing happened for Akham Asylum. I think the one thing not spoiled for me with that game was the end fight.

BATMAN, BATMAN, BATMAN! The game.

I'm sorry, but to me, this is worse than Duke Nukem Forever.

So I guess this is this generations Metal Gear Solid 2?

Can I kiss the henchmen when I'm playing Batman as well?

What the hell?
We can play as Catwoman?
Meow!

how many ass shots can you shove into one trailer?
