Batman: Arkham Asylum puts you behind the cowl of the iconic Dark Knight, fighting his way through Arkham Asylum to stop the Joker from enacting a sinister plot that would have grave consequences for Gotham City.
Batman Arkham Asylum debut trailer
Kind of cool, but I'm really not interested in playing a Batman game, especially one about hand-to-hand combat.
"And I might be mistaken, but is that Hans Zimmer's music in the trailer?"I believe it's a piece from Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard from one of the new Batman films. It might be off the TDK soundtrack because it sounds incredibly familiar.
Anyway, that game looks like it's got the typical Batman pathetically forced grim tone to things. Can't wait to not play it.
The music in the trailer feels reminiscent of the score for the Batman films but doesn't seem to sound exactly like any particular track from either of the Batman films. So that makes me happy, i had worried they might just try and live off of the recent success from TDK.
Still Mark Hamill > Heath Ledger for the Joker's voice.
"Kind of cool, but I'm really not interested in playing a Batman game, especially one about hand-to-hand combat."Making a Batman game without fighting is like making a Call of Duty game without guns.
Well that wasn't very impressive. It barely showed us anything. And is it just me, or has Mark Hamill's Joker voice totally lost it's potency? After Heath Ledger it just seems... weak.
"Well that wasn't very impressive. It barely showed us anything. And is it just me, or has Mark Hamill's Joker voice totally lost it's potency? After Heath Ledger it just seems... weak."Laugh=/=Voice Although I don't think He'll be able to beat Heath Ledger :P
"Kind of cool, but I'm really not interested in playing a Batman game, especially one about hand-to-hand combat."if its anything like Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay, which it already sounds and looks like, it will be awesome.
"Well that wasn't very impressive. It barely showed us anything. And is it just me, or has Mark Hamill's Joker voice totally lost it's potency? After Heath Ledger it just seems... weak."What was special about Heath Ledger's laugh? I don't really remember anything about it besides it's a bit high pitched.
I wasn't talking about their laughs, I was talking about their voices. Heath Ledger was Joker in The Dark Knight, and Mark Hamill was Joker in The Animated Series. We've heard both of their voices before, and I think Ledgers Joker voice (and laugh) sounds better because it sounds more shrill, venomous, and menacing to me. It's not like I'm basing my opinion on jack shit.

1st
I think Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard would have written a different score for this game that best reflex the Jokers insanity because the music in the movie I think reflex the Joker's actions of chaos."And I might be mistaken, but is that Hans Zimmer's music in the trailer?"I believe it's a piece from Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard from one of the new Batman films. It might be off the TDK soundtrack because it sounds incredibly familiar.

But, I heard that Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard wrote about 3 hours of music and Christopher Nolan remembered it all, so some of the music might not have made the movie of the soundtack.
2nd
What game engine is being used to make this?
3rd
If the gameplay is anything like the Chronicles of riddick butchers bay, im fine with it
"AndrewGaspar said:ARE YOU RETARDED?! omg. at least pretend you know something about DC's greatest superhero and stfu."Kind of cool, but I'm really not interested in playing a Batman game, especially one about hand-to-hand combat."
That's what Batman does, though..."
