*sniff* Well, Arleen, it's been fun. And Tara, I'm confident that you can do a great job as Harley, make us proud.

For me this is just another reason to buy it. I was already planning on getting Arkham City so adding a voice from MLP makes it better in my opinion.

I am saddened by this news, however Tara Strong is probably the best choice to replace her. After all, Raven sounds nothing like Twilight Sparkle, so she clearly knows how to do the job. I wonder why she doesn't want to come back? Oh well. It will still be an awesome game.

I have one question: why is it called Arkham City? There was never an Arkham City (unless you're talking HP Lovecraft; wouldn't that be a hell of a cross-over). It was just Arkham Asylum in Gotham City.

Arkam's inmates are running loose in the city?

Have you ever seen Escape from New York city? The plot of this game is that sections of the city will be closed off and house inmates much how New York housed criminals in the movie that I listed. Of course it's a horrible idea and it goes wrong.

Tara Strong's a great voice actress, and judging by some of her roles she could probably get close to Arleen Sorkin's voice. Still sucks that she's not reprising the role, since it seems wrong to imagine anyone but her doing it.

I'm a little sad to see Sorkin go, but looking at Strong's ridiculous character list, I think Harley's in good hands. Besides, Harley's audio tapes were kindof off in Arkham Asylum, I think.

Thats pretty dissapointing, but maybe it'll be like people saying Heath Ledger wouldnt be as good as the Joker int he Dark Knight, and then everyone loved him

I agree. Her voice credits are so varied. I'm not gonna start rattling off names, but check her Wiki, she's done a lot.

Now, I've never played Arkham Asylum, but I might pick up Arkham City, given there are now two voice actors I'm very familiar with.

Oh, joy. As much as I like Strong I really lost respect with My Little Pony. God, I hope I'm not gonna play that thinking of that terrible show.

TRUKK NOT MUNKY!

Oh, wait, sorry, wrong fandom.

Although, the TFWiki's page on Ruined FOREVER [http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Ruined_FOREVER] is, like, two proper noun changes away from being relevant to this thread.

(EDIT: WTF? Half the time that URL leads to an Escapist 404. Trying again: http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Ruined_FOREVER )

But yeah, I'm not concerned. I might miss Sorkin but she's being replaced by a voice acting god. Not really anything to panic about.

I somehow knew it was going to be Tara Strong even before I read the full article, she's the perfect replacement. Go Tara!

I've come across some of Tara's work in the past, and I think she's pretty good. I'm interested in seeing how she does in this role.

While I didn't exactly liked her role as Rikku in FFX, I think Tara Strong did a pretty good job at playing as Twilight Sparkle. So this isn't a huge deal for me.

Then again, I'm not planning on getting this game anyway.

Tara Strong did the voice for Rikku in Final Fantasy X, Bubbles in Powerpuff Girls, and Timmy Turner in Fairly Odd Parents...or was it Vicki? Well, either way I'm reasonably certain she can pull this off.
