I have wanted a good DC game with free roam like that. Superman Returns did that but didn't have much non-game content to keep things interesting, Batman would be perfect with a GTA type game. Totally! I thought the same things when I read about this mediocre game they're talking about. I do not know, or understand, the financial and legal aspects as to why DC or Marvel haven't gone to Rockstar and begged them to do a free-roaming Marvel New York or DCU. It just seems obvious to me. Can you imagine how awesome a comic-based game with the graphics and detailed style of GTAIV? My god, it would sell trillions... in all fairness, Marvel has the Spider-man free roam games. They're really detailed, have lots of side things to do and crimes to stop, and Ultimate has human torch races. But yeah, they both need to crank out free roam games. I'm hoping that's what the MMORPG will be. I had actually forgotten about the Spider-Man games, as they're not at all realistic, or on the level of GTA. But, you're right, it is free-roam. I don't know, though. It just seems too weak. I want a game where I have virtual freedom. Where I can do anything in either identity (what if I wanted to send Batman out into Gotham without the mask? I want to be able to do that). As for side-missions or whatever, I'd love it if you're, say, running across the moonlit rooftops, and you hear/see a small explosion about four or five blocks away. And instead of it being this directed mission, or even one of those Green Blips Spider-Man had, it was just happening in real-time and you could choose to go over and assist/investigate or not. Total freedom. I guess I want the fantasy Marvel or DCU game-meets-Oblivion-meets-GTAIV-meets-Army of Two. I want a damn epic comic book universe inspired game for a modern console...

That's the C64 version - like the movie game, it plays better on the C64 then on the Amiga!

The amiga version had much better sound & graphics but lacks the....., playability(haven;t used that word in a long time) of it's 8-bit counterpart. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Amiga_caped_crusader.pngrectum.

Batman: Arkham Asylum gets Hamill's Joker, Conroy's Batman Eidos and Warner Bros. have confirmed that Mark Hamill, the voice of The Joker in Batman: The Animated Series, will reprise his sadistically animated take on the Clown Prince of Crime in Batman: Arkham Asylum. Additionally, the Caped Crusader himself will be voiced by Kevin Conroy, recognized as the voice of Batman in numerous animated series and games.
While we remain largely undecided regarding Rocksteady Studios' "graphically distinct" take on Bruce Wayne's alter ego (spoiler! - Ed.), today's news brings us dangerously close to being pulled off the fence as we continue to wait for Batman: Arkham Asylum to ship next summer for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

Paul Dini is writing it.
I'm stoked.

i knew about dini, and he's awesome, so that was awesome. but i haven't been overly impressed with his comic book take, so i didn't know what i'd think with this "realistic" comic game. however, also getting hamill and conroy in on the mix instantly bumps it up another few notches.

AWESOME-O Although I'd feel more comfortable if Paul Jenkins was writing the story instead of Dini. Then I could say I had two Jenkins games in my library--Assuing AA turns out well of course.
