Seems Scarecrow is going to be the primary villain in this one. Biggest news has to be the fully driveable Batmobile though - will it be free-roaming or just in scripted sequences? |

| Tight. The batmobile was the main thing missing from the last two (apart from better integration of Robin et al). |

| I wonder how it's going to work. The maps in the previous two games didn't seem to lend themselves to vehicular travel. There was a lot of clutter on the streets and I wonder if removing that clutter to allow for trundling along in the Batmobile will make the streets look too barren. |

| The city is pretty ruined in City to be fair so there is no way you'd be able to get around by car. As long as they have a good mix of ruined areas and stuff on the driveable streets it'll be sweet. |

| My sources suggest that it's another big game not destined to arrive on the Wii U. |

| Looks great, I'm pleased it's by rocksteady again. Looks a bit like prequel again.
About Wii U version, the trailer and listings are for PS4, Xbox One and PC. I think if this miss PS360, I think that will the point next gen be comes current gen imo when a huge title like this isn't on PS360.
Added stuff, so it is a sequel and the end of the arkham series even thought the trailer seems a bit prequelly but the end of batman. And it's not coming to current gen / being cross gen as you have the rein the game back. More info here form CVG.

| I didn't think it was prequely at all. First and foremost the lack of Joker, despite Harley's presence! To me it was definitely coming across as a finale. |

| This looks really good, but I won't be getting a Ps4/XBone until they are much more affordable, so I'll probably miss out. I am a little surprised though: the end of City seemed like Rocksteady blew their load from a story ending perspective... - Spoiler:
...having the most iconic and central villain with the Joker die, and a good chunk of the voice cast call it a day and say they felt it was completed. Just felt like a *end* point at the time.
Will look on with envious eyes though! |

| They've got most of the voice cast back though now haven't they? That's the impression I got from the CVG article. |

| Aye, seem they have actually: I thought they'd given up on the Batman guy, but maybe it was just for Origins. And I suppose there's no real need for Mark Hamil now... |

| First off I will say I do like batman but I'm firmly in the "NOT excited" mode, my biggest fear being that it again will be too similar to the previous games I hope they aren't going to just fob us off with a drivable batmobile & leave it at that.
It's early days though, I'll just have to wait & see actual gameplay first before I'm bothered about it. |

| I'm betting Rocksteady have been working on it for a while, and I trust them to put out a quality product. |

| Jay has a point: some other guys did Origins (memorable!), so Rocksteady have had a bit of time to polish Knight up. |

Wonder what that futuristic Batsuit is all about? |

I've been told similar things on twitter & even though it wasn't the entire team I had trusted the folks who lead arkham Origins (a few worked on prototype & Hulk) anyhow I do hope it turns out really good I just can't get excited for it yet. |

| Shots fired: the Rocksteady boys are calling this the last part of the trilogy. |

| Hahahaha, that's brilliant. An attempt at distancing their games from Origins? |

| A trailer, anyone?
I'm excited - looks like a great plot for the game, and it looks gorgeous too, presuming that some of that was in-engine stuff. |

| Ridiculously excited for this game. Might have to have another run through City before it (probably my 6th by now). |

| A little bit more excited than before but I still have my fears about how they can make better/different from Arkham City. |

| I trust Rocksteady - they've had long enough to work on this game that I'm confident it'll be a great game. It doesn't have to be better than Arkham City. It just has to be good. |

| I don't think anyone could've predicted the ridiculous improvements City made to Asylum, but it's so much better it's practically impossible to go back. |

| I prefer Asylum, but honestly that's totally subjective - they're both fantastic games in their own right.
Oh, and apparently Scarecrow is voiced by John "Denethor, Steward of Gondor" Noble, which is cool. |
