@CurtMan2k7:  Of course I played the first one. I loved the hell out of it. Many playthroughs of it. Don't just assume that with that comment that I've never played the game.

Arkham Asylum is the best game that I've played in years.  I expect nothing but greatness from this game.

That was a great trailer, I am really hyped for this game now. Batman is the only game I have platinumed on PS3, maybe this will be my second. 
 
Only thing I didnt like was their tag line at the end, "All In" is the same marketing slogan the Chicago White Sox are using this season.

The first time I watched this the song pick didn't seem all that fitting. But after watching it a handful of times more...well, either I started liking the song or the awesomeness of the trailer makes me forget all about it!

So what part caused the lame 10 second exclusive? The game looks sweet, but yeah... I think the whole 10 seconds thing was to keep people talking about the game.

Does anyone else think "Strap it on" when that "All In" text first pops up? And then the date shows up and ruins the moment.

Since you can see enemies' skeletons in detective mode, just makes sense you should get MK style bone breaking when you fight dudes!

Wasn't as impressed as some by the first game, it was a great game but not the second coming of christ, this however looks like a massive improvement and with the added detective work it should be a show stealer.

 Everything looks great, sure. But I also hope the gameplay holds up as well. Like adding nice innovative ideas to the original, while not making it unplayable or annoying.

Oh, and I'm glad Harvey and Selina both look great, as they did in the previous game's character bios. But why didn't Harley get a costume like those artwork showed her in?
She just turned more slutty/generic this time...oh well...I guess it sells to those kiddies/nerds/gamers...

@Mr_Skeleton: she sounds the same to me... It looks good though, if they can tighten up the control when your running, smooth out some of those transition animations it'll be amazing

I really hope the helicopters are rare. If they just move slowly enough to effectively become predictable gargoyle replacements I'm gonna be pretty sad.

Certainly looking awesome. Batman Arkham Asylum was such a great game and suprise to me. It turned out to be my favorite game of 2009. Considering it's contenders that's quite a feat. 
 
Needless to say I'm really looking forward to this game, seeing this trailer only fuels this as it seems to do exactly what I hoped it would. In a year with Deus Ex 3, Mass Effect 3 and Witcher 2 amongst others coming it takes something special to be #1 on my Most Wanted list. Yet Batman AC pulls it off. October 18th is so far away...

I love the music in this trailer.  
 
It's refreshing for a video game trailer to not just have moody orchestral shit in the background.

Yeah, texture pop-in in your trailer!  
 
Jackass humor aside, this trailer floored me. I'm officially re-excited for this game. Day one purchase.

Great trailer, great song too. Looking forward to playing the game in October. Not sold on the new voice actress for Harley Quinn though. The new look is great though.
