Batman: Arkham City is Looking Tastily Dark

hmm. Grand Theft Gotham? sometime in the future? I'm wondering if things like the batmobile will become a playable mode of transportation.

I agree with illegalmonkey. The bad guys are looking so buffed. Now this might tell my age but, they remind me of He-Man. I had the "Action Figures" and man were they also pretty buffed ... lol "Action Figures" .... lol

I hope this game will be as good as the previous one.

At least it's better than the Burton flicks. There was a short time when they were thought to be ground-breakingly dark for a comic movie adaptation, but now they just look like total B-movie cheese. The Nolan movies inject some much-needed plausible reality IMO, where the Burton movies have too much fantasy.

The games are somewhere in between, but I'd say they're more true to the Dark Knight comic series, as if Miller was used as a designer/consultant.
