scans_daily Well, it's finally here, the Batgame of the Year! ...Though admittedly I have to wait for another week for my copy due to living in the UK. Blargh.
Anyways, here is the launch trailer! Including sightings of: Calendar Man, Poison Ivy, Bane, Talia, Robin and others.
The Mad Hatter and Black Mask are also meant to be in the game somewhere, but only Roman has actually appeared in one of the trailers (and even that was a back view).
For legality, Shortpacked!

Date: 2011-10-14 11:49 pm (UTC)Definitely agree with him being a good DKR Batman though, maybe in about another five years. The popular choice is always Eastwood, which I thought kind of missed the point of both Eastwood's work and DKR; Dirty Harry's a brutal but sane response to the inadequacies of the justice system. DKR Batman is an insane response to the terror of growing old and law and justice failing catastrophically.
Shit, now I'd love to see Clooney as OldBatman and Brad Pitt as OldBarryAllen, specifically for that scene in The Dark Knight Strikes Again where Batman casually announces how Luthor's going to die, and it's to the letter; Clooney would make that even more epic with his delivery.

Date: 2011-10-14 11:53 pm (UTC)I'm not exactly sure if I agree with your take on DKR Batman, though. I think him and Dirty Harry are more or less the same. Bruce in that story tried to give it up, but he eventually went back to the way things were before, and was probably even trying to compensate a little. Of course, I seem to have a more sympathetic take on Miller's work, especially on Batman, than others here.
Pitt as Older Barry would be pretty awesome, though. :D

Date: 2011-10-15 12:10 am (UTC)I think there are a number of ways to interpret DKR Batman, so I'm not going to argue with you there, although I do think he's more of an extremist than Dirty Harry; Harry at least works in the confines of the law until it fails him, whereas Batman never has worked in a comfortable definition of the law. Still, I respect your liking Millar; the current Holy Terror rubbish aside, I think he does decent work. Like I say, I own a copy of DKSA; given how many are keen to crucify that book, that should say it all - I think DKSA is a wonderful ode to a time when comics were simpler and the like.

Date: 2011-10-14 11:55 pm (UTC)I'm glad we seem to be getting more of Joker's freaky TV-headed mannequins in the game; the use of those was epic and superbly creepy, last time.

I do really like her costume, though. After Harley's redesign in the first game, I was a bit wary.
