Ah come on, ya gotta have a little faith. Ha ha, well yeah that is strange we didn't hear nothing about it from E3. Who knows, maybe it'll be out next year, which is weird too. But why do we keep hearing things from people like Mattel and Gary Oldman that there'll be one, when it looks like there won't? |

Well it's obvious one was in development at somepoint, but Oldman sounds like he only saw an early version and the Mattel thing was last year; so maybe during development they realized they had a sub-par product, and instead of doing what they did with Superman Returns and futiley trying to salvage the game instead they just dropped it?

Yeah, that could've been the case, which is kinda sad. I mean, a lot of people are acting like LEGO Batman will be good, but it just doesn't interest me, especially with the fact that I don't like the LEGO Star Wars games. We'll just see what happens with both products I guess. |

Here's an update on TDK game
As it stands, nobody has commented officially on the specifics of the next Batman game. Hell, nobody has officially acknowledged that the game even exists. That doesn't mean we can't hear about it unofficially, however. So, courtesy of someone who's already played the game, let's look over the first details on what you can expect from it, and how it's shaping up.
Firstly, our source confirms Pandemic as the developers behind the title, though we pretty much knew that already. Secondly, a good portion of the game is set in a GTA-style rendition of Gotham City, which plays a lot like Spiderman 2 as Batman zips around (he even gets a grappling hook for swingy-swingy when not using the Batmobile) attending to crimes. And thirdly? As was first raised last week, it's not in the best shape, perhaps explaining why the project has been kept in the *ahem* dark for so long.
Seems the combat just doesn't work. Partly due to the game's wonky free-roaming camera system, partly due to the mashy hand-to-hand combat, partly due to the limited range of moves Batman has at his disposal, which makes the whole thing awfully repetitive. Which is a bit of a shame, though realistically, with no official announcement, let alone release date, there's plenty of time to fix that kind of stuff. On a brighter note, another source tells us Pandemic have taken a few creative liberties with the game, and while it's based on The Dark Knight, the game's actually set after the events of the movie, which should at least be interesting from a story-telling perspective.

yeah i also read that, i hope this is true and they keep it "hush hush" until its good, i know pandemic is a great game company, im sure they will work out the bugs...saying this rumor is true. Im extreamly excited about this Free Roam game, im sure you can glide around too b/c of what Gary Oldman told G4 about the game.
I just hope we get a little bit more on this game. Im not sure i like the fact its after The Dark Knight, i think it should start at Dark Knight and go through the movie and beyond to other villans kind of like the Spiderman Games did.

Another update
This newly announces game is not to be confused with the recently discussed Batman game allegedly in development at Pandemic for publisher Electronic Arts, and which is apparently an open-world title based on The Dark Knight movie.

isnt this a bit over-kill for us batman fans? it's kind of crazy.
mortal kombat vs. dc, dc universe online, lego batman, batman: arkham asylum, AND the dark knight. hahaha, awesome.
arkham asylum sounds especially interesting. it's a shame i don't own any next gen consoles. i'll only be able to play lego batman, and maybe dcu online if its on pc.

The Dark Knight movie video game was canceled late last year. Pandemic WAS making a open world Batman game based on the comics. When EA saw how well TDK was doing in theaters they told pandemic to make it a movie based game but, pandemic was already 6-7 months into production and the change couldn't be made in time. DC didn't like what they were seeing and gave Rocksteady the go ahead on Arkham. EA tried to get the rights to a Batman game back and DC turned them down due to poor quality and not staying true to the character. Rocksteady took their time on making arkham and it looks amazing. Im so glad EA lost the Batman license. |
