Just finished Arkham City yesterday. Still have a lot of side stuff to go through, but I really want to get this new expansion too.

Awesome. This I'll be picking up... hopefully they do more DLC like this instead of just the challenge rooms.

I hope it isn't 3 hours long. I hate DLC that short. Thats my main complaint with the Saints Row DLC. They each are less than 2 hours long. Also, I hope Nightwing has some part in the story. Either way, I still can't wait to play it.

Man, I don't give Tara Strong enough credit:) I am constantly surprised by how good an impression of Harley's old voice actress - Arleen Sorkin - she does. You can hear her voice all over tv and games - Bubbles from Powerpuff Girls, Ben 10 (the first one), Timmy Turner, Rikku from Final Fantasy X, Juliet from Lollipop Chainsaw - but she sounds pretty different as Harley Quinn. All the voices here are excellent. I wonder if they got someone famous for Robin? Niel Patrick Harris did a good job as Nightwing in the DC Direct-to-Video Animated Under the Red Hood movie. He'd make a good Robin here.

Oh, and of course, Harley is still one of the hottest character designs in gaming today. Easy. Rocksteady has extremely talented modelers ;)

I'm guessing this is Tim Drake, right? Considering Grayson's in there as Nightwing?

I've lost track of Robins.

@Paul_Is_Drunk: The Robin in this is Tim Drake.  Dick Grayson is already Nightwing at this point in the game's universe.  I kind of hope Jason Todd shows up in the next game.

The only why they could bring in Jason Todd is by using the "A Death in the Family", "Under the Hood"and "Hush" storylines, witch you can't do without the Joker.

For a second I thought Robin was gonna shoot that guy and I was pumped. Then it was a grappling hook. Oh well.

Arkham City had a bad launch window. For whatever reason I just wasnt feeling it last Oct in between Dark Souls, U3 and AC:R. I'm playing through it again now and I'm enjoying it a lot more. Can wait for this DLC!

10 out of 10? Not a very good name for a Batman game. They should change it back to Arkham City

This is what Rocksteady should have done from the beginning.

I have to believe that this was added only after the outcry of fans since I think they said in an interview that there would be no story DLC.

Possible next game content released early?

It's definitely Tim Drake. I think he calls him Tim in the main game.

@kennyshat: Also, one of the alternate DLC skins for Robin is Red Robin, and Tim was the first Robin to regularly use a quarterstaff.

I haven't seen anywhere, is this going to be kept to one district, or we finally be able to take Robin out into the full Arkham City?

I decided not to buy Arkham City yet, because I heard there was going to some cool DLC for it. Now that it's included in the Game of the Year Edition, I'm on board.

Oh, and by the way: I'm so freaking excited for this game!!!

nothing like a crazy awesome reason to dust off Arkham City and boot it up
