From what I've read, the game is rewarding in this respect, so I really hope that's true.

As for the default costume looking dumb... how so? Personally, I like it.

Thanks for your input. Upon seeing how much side-content there is, I'm starting to think that may be the way to go.

Hard to pinpoint exactly what I don't like about the default costume. Perhaps it's more the anatomy of Batman, compared to the other suits. Look at the picture in your current signature. Doesn't he look strangely proportioned compared to the others?

Maybe it's just me.

i just got the pre order with the animated skin included. i can't wait. I love the cartoon and I can pretend this is tied into the show somehow lol. game is great!

*TheCanadiandrome* · 10-17-2011, 11:52 PM

i want some of those skins. where do u get them at?

*Brodie* · 10-18-2011, 12:04 AM

Picked up my copy from best buy, cause I wanted the Robin stuff. Oddly enough, I wasn't incredibly interested in AC until I saw that there was an option to play as Robin in the challenge maps.

I got the Robin set, and some other free stuff. They had Posters and t-shirts and a voucher for the album to download for free. Pretty stellar.

*Slap-Happy* · 10-18-2011, 12:10 AM

Had a chance to play yet?

**Jester** · 10-18-2011, 12:22 AM

I know it's a weird question, but Batman Beyond's voice is still Kevin Conroy, right? I mean it would be cool if they got Will Friedle.

Well, they're only skins, so yeah.

Robin's a whole new character, so he has a different voice actor.

*Brodie* · 10-18-2011, 01:29 AM

The Robin/Nightwing stuff is separate, just in challenge maps. So there isn't really a voice.

The Batman stuff is used across everything, and is just a skin mapped to him.

And, yeah, I've been playing the game. Its Batman. I guess.

The wait is finally over. Probably won't knock my favorite three games out of their top spots, but I've never been more hyped.

*Brodie* · 10-18-2011, 11:25 AM

For those of you wanting the Batman Beyond suit... the NOS energy drink thing is going on, where you get a bottle of it, redeem the code online and you can get the Beyond suit.

Ya know, the original Batman was the first one to actually wear that suit. So I guess we can just assume the man under that mask is in his late 50s or so.

Days like this make me sooo jealous I'm only a Wii owner.

Batman: Brave and the bold is for Wii, right? ;]

But hey, Skyward sword look's like a pretty good game to look forward to.

Off to play Arkham City. I'll be back with impressions later, for those interested..... *Crickets*

Random thought: Wouldn't it be neat if the game industry followed Hollywood, in that Once one quality comic book-adaption is made, a whole slew of quality ones follow?

Think of Arkham Asylum as an X-men, Blade, or Spider-man film breaking box-office numbers :p

*Spitfire* · 10-18-2011, 03:30 PM

I read all the skins are coming out in a pack sometime after Nightwing so I'm content for now. By the time that happens I probably won't even have finished the game yet to use them.

I got it last night and played it for a little bit. It was fun to go around the city. I wasn't feeling the excitement for it I thought I would though. Not to say it isn't awesome I just wasn't in the right mood to enjoy it fully I guess.

I'm honestly interested in what you have to say about it, the review scores so far have been fantastic.

I'm adding Arkham Asylum to my mental list of games to finish before the end of the year. I started it a while back but never really stuck with it past the first hour.

That. would. be. AMAZING!!

I love Kevin Conroy, but I also greatly enjoyed Will Friedle as Terry. It would be awesome to see him reprise the role in some way, whether game, TV, or film.

*oldmanwinters* · 10-18-2011, 10:38 PM

I just watched the ending on Youtube. Pretty epic stuff!

*Slap-Happy* · 10-19-2011, 12:21 AM

Anyone notice Azrael in the game yet?
