    This was announced a few weeks back, but this time A Trailer! Displaying the various toys and tricks that the joker has up his sleeve.

    From what is shown in this trailer, they did a pretty darn good job of portraying the joker as , well - the Joker, the original joker from the comic books, now I don't want to break anyone's thunder by saying this but - I did not really like Heath Ledgers Joker, sure he was very good at his joker, but not playfully psychotic enough for my taste - but that's a whole different story

    Back on track , I'm very surprised by Mark Hamil's voice work for the joker, its very bone chilling but also playful at the same time, its very enjoyable.

    Joker is pretty darn funny in this trailer, how he walks around, and has all his silly, and devious tricks, like the electric handshake, and the mini firetruck that explodes, all awesome stuff from the comic books, but its when he put on the wiggly glasses that really got me, it just nailed the character so well (the glasses have the same effect as batman's bat vision)

    The joker will be playable in the challenge rooms

    I'm very happy to see finally a good comic book video game were they pretty much chisel the characters down to a fine point.

    Also - Exclusivity is a lie, companies enjoy their money to much to keep something exclusive so look in 6 months or so on the Xbox360 to be able to purchase the Joker, as a playable character

    and finally I will stop talking, and here is the trailer for you to enjoy :

    The game looks excellent so far, it seems the Batman name may hold its own critically in film and on video-games.


    Console exclusivity always sucks though.
