Batman Arkham Asylum 2 update

[Cabisco]

I do apologise if this has already been posted, but I figured this information would be quite interesting too a bunch of you:

http://uk.xbox360.ign.com/articles/107/1075790p1.html

If you can't be bothered to read (lazy) it basically tells us that 1. Mr Two Face will be in the next game and 2. So is Robin...

I suppose the topic of discussion from this point on is a big group howl at the fact we might hear "Holy something something batman" at some point, which is a scary thought.

*shivers*

Seems less likely to be that cheesy and cringe-worthy if Arkham Asylum is anything to go by.

Awesome! B:AA was one of the best games last year, thanks for the find!

From the article:

IGN's resident Batman expert Alex Simmons was keen on the potential inclusion, saying "I think it's a good idea. [Robin's] not as much of a dick as people think he is."

I see what he did there.

Wow I just got that...

OT: Well personally I think Co-Op spoils most action games so hopefully Robin will only pop up every now and then.
Plus Two-Face is awesome, kinda obvious he was going to be in it though but still.

I'm cool with having Robin around, but it really depends which one. I'd prefer Dick Grayson, but I'd be okay with Tim Drake.

Robin???

Oh no. Please don't tell me this means they're tacking a multiplayer mode onto it...

 

[Emberwolf]

If Robin's in it, I think the gameplay could go one of three ways- you have Robin tagging along behind you as annoying NPC (*coughcough*Alyx*coughcough*), you have Robin played by a friend (could work, as long as you're not both the kill-steal types) or Robin playable in some missions only.

However it goes, I reckon I'll be keeping a watch on this... Cheers for the link.

Lets hope it's just a voice role like the Riddler.

Fuck having Robin following me everywhere.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

I still think this game is rushed...It's gonna be just over a year in development...

 

[Nomanslander]

Oh God no!!

Not Robin??

X*(

You know, he better just be like Nightwing and do his own thing and stay out of my effing business, assist me in a fight now and then...>>

 

[ClunkiestTurtle]

Co-op please anyone??

A great uber fun game like this (assuming it will be like the first) with Batman and Robin in it, if there is no split screen co op then i am going to be so mad that i will....

probably buy it anyway!!

 

[Elemental]

No co-op.
No multiplayer.
And that infromation is from IMDB.. Which means that this infromation is useless..

 

[Rararaz]

I have very little hope for this game. I think that it is a typical case of a game doing far better than expected and then a hastily made lower quality cash-in.

I'm more interested in what they do in terms of story, and Paul Dini knows how to write a good Batman & Robin story. He might not even be part of gameplay, though; Oracle wasn't.

 

[WINDOWCLEAN2]

Its most likely that it will go with the story arc of Robin going crazy and becoming a villain or appears in flashbacks as batman thinks of robins death/injury/breakdown.

 

[Artina89]

I'll have to let my brother know. He'll be really happy that Arkham asylum 2 is coming out quickly (even though i'm not sure thats a good thing), but then he ll cry that Robin is in the game.

 

[Hawkeye16]

Its got robin. I could almost stand having to listin to batgirl all through the first one but robin!?

 

[Irridium]

Holy bat nipples Batman! This is great news!

I wonder if it will have co-op since Robin is in the game...

 

[Riobux]

...Robin?

Oh god...

 

[knight steel]

Yay two face he's a great villain.......but robin on the other hand....i guess will just have to play the game to find out how robin works out.
