i hope they do make another one or at least something similar that is just as good. it's great to finally have a good Batman game
Arkham Asylum 2? Maybe "If People Like the Game"

I'd like to see the ability to play though the story with the armoured bat suit and/or to turn off costume degradation. Oh! and of course to start the game with all upgrades.
Well, I hope that there is one, but it really shouldn't be set in Arkham again. I mean, it was all fresh the first time, but I seriously doubt Arkham would get another island, or something like that. Maybe travelling around Gotham, or Blackgate, as was suggested before.
"I'm sorry , but there is no such thing as Project Imagination Doorway. Imagination Doorway. It was started in the 60's as a secret government project. Right."
Another example of subtlety at its finest.

I'm still a little annoyed Robin doesn't get a character profile in B:AA. I mean, Bruce Wayne gets two, one as Bruce and one as Batman, but Robin gets nada?
Well it hinted Bats was going to go kick Two Face's ass. That was about it.Sevre90210 said:
But back on topic. Dont make it on Arkham Asylum! Use the system they did for Arkham Asylum but make it on Gotham. No need to go back to Arkham. It'd just be same place, different villians.
If they did it in Gotham and make either Two Face, Prometheus or Penguin the main villians with other villians like Catwoman and Mr Freeze in it. With a well done storyline and few more gadgets and upgrades and a few more challenging riddles would be brilliant in my opinion.
I dunno if that would work so well, the enclosed, iconic environment of Arkham Asylum is one of the things that really let the game shine. Besides, you'd lose the Metroidvania appeal of the first one if you got rid of the enclosed environment.Kwil said:
Though I suppose a Sandboxy area of Gotham like The Narrows that's been sealed off from Gotham at Large would work pretty well and would serve both purposes.
I'm thinking a game revolving around Gotham's mafia families could be cool. And with the Two-Face hint at the end of Arkham Asylum, they could maybe do something along the lines of "The Long Halloween" just like Arkham Asylum was based on "Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Earth" but with more characters. They could have Black Mask, and the Ventriloquist, and Two-Face, and maybe Catwoman. It could be cool, but still, it would probably be better to wait a few months to a year before considering a sequel, lest people be displeased.
I'm not really sure where the game could GO from here though... Arkham Asylum is basically the perfect environment, you can't do it twice though. Gotham is too big to keep the same style gameplay. Black Gate isn't a varied enough environment either.
