Robin in Batman: Arkham City

[cypherfdp]

Batman and Selena look good, so do the villains, so I'm sure Robin will be-- oh Christ.

Oh Tim, what's happened to you?

It seems these days that if you want to be a video game protagonist in a "hardcore" game, you got to shave your head. Galen Marek, Shephard, Cole McGrath, Issac Clarke, the list goes on.

The pic doesn't come in color, so there's no telling how it'll look, perhaps bright purple with baby blue trim.

What he's wearing doesn't even look like a costume, just a shirt, pants, boots, and a cloak.

On the bright side, he comes with a Red Robin skin, so there's definitely some hope. Unless he still has a buzzcut.

This. I like the concept drawings for the characters by Carlos D'Anda - currently drawing the tie-in Arkham City series, and I think his designs for Joker, Harley and Batman really work nicely when translated to 3D, but the other designs are pretty ugly.

I don't mind Catwoman's look in AC too much, but she seems to be taking too many notes from DC's current direction and MK vs DC than the awesome, classy 60's styling her black-leather costume had under Cooke and Stewart.

Yeah, I really wonder when it was decided that her designated costume is to always have her cat-suit zipped down to reveal bountiful cleavage. It doesn't really bother me per se at this point, but...the Selina I know would have had Bruce chase her down across half of Gotham before she even started zipping her costume down.
