I got a limited edition preordered. I like to do that for the last game in a series I really loved. I want to be the Batman right now.

I want to preorder the limited edition however i do not know if i can justify dat Canadian price assuming it goes up

That secret code in the trailer will unlock a short Riddler video that confirms the Joker is still alive.

When did they hire David Tennant as The Riddler?

The IQ from the Gamersyde footage is flawed enough to not be an insane PC rig version, but clean enough to not be an issue. Am I getting my hopes up for the PS4 version?

Still haven't read any of them. What's the gist of it?

Joker gets an autopsy. The Arkham Knight appears directly after the end of Arkham City, and kills a new Electrocutioner (executes him, and essentially says that he knows Batman well and they differ in that he views criminals as garbage), Joker's body was rigged with some message to play on Christmas day.

Hmmm...Arkham Knight seems too similar to Red Hood.
Surely there's something more to it.

I get the feeling whoever is in the suit is basically getting fear gassed 24/7

Hope they make fighting Scarecrow more interesting than those really lame spotlight sections from Asylum and do more with the hallucination sections.
The way they've handled the Riddler in the games has also been immensely underwhelming - hopefully his inclusion in the main trailer means he's getting more focus as he definately has more potential as an interesting villain than most others.

My favorite theory thus far is Arkham Knight is
Bruce, and you have been playing as Hush for a large portion of the game

Ok... watching that makes me finally want to play Arkham City...

If I don't, will I be missing out on any back story?

Calling it, Arkham Knight is
hypnotized Bruce and the Batman you're playing as is actually Dick Grayson picking up the mantle in Bruce absence.

Goddamit you edited!!

City referenced Asylum enough that anyone who didn't play it might've been lost on a couple of things, but I don't think it was game-breaking. We can only assume Knight would do the same thing, but its hard to overlook the impact of City's ending. I'd play it just to be safe. The trailer shows Origins might be getting some callbacks as well, but playing it too is likely optional.

I don't like new Pamela Isley model at all. I think she looks terrible, especially compared to the older model from AA and AC. Goddamnit, Rocksteady! Why!?

I remember hearing a Kevin Smith podcast where Paul Dini basically blames Rocksteady for the treatment of women in Arkham City (he says, for instance, that all of the "bitch"'s were something he spoke against and Rocksteady wanted).

Maybe they are being self-concious about how they treat women? Less depicting every female character as 'sex-sex-sex'? Ivy seems toned down, almost goddess like. Harley is designed more modestly.

Oh god, what are they going to do with Catwoman?

This would be a bit of a stretch....so Dick Grayson sounds exactly like Batman/Kevin Conroy?

My guess is that with the Gamestop Red Hood Preorder stuff...that might be a hint of them having some sort of flashback sequences where they setup the whole Jason Todd backstory. Maybe it will be part of some Scarecrow toxin scene. Maybe they will make reference to
the death of The Joker
and compare it to another person that Batman could of saved, Jason Todd.

OR...Rocksteady are actually making an entirely new character contained to their own universe and it turns out to be Azrael or they go even further back and make it like Dr. Young's brother or something that is pissed at Batman for letting her die.

Oh, riiiiiiight... WTF is this then?

So this is more than appropriate for comic books, but not for a video game (and that is just one cover)? I say F you Paul Dini! Just F you!

That was hype as fuck, wow.

Really glad they put up a trailer, I was getting kind of worried with all the radio silence and all.

Goddam the character models look sooooo good. No more Hulk Gordon.
This story is gonna be insane if they use all the loose threads from AC.

I guess they're saving Deathstroke for the Suicide Squad game. :(

Would've liked Black Mask and/or Hush to join the league of villainy in this.
