Something Batman related? Rocksteady? No way!

Arrow gets 3.2 million viewers a week. The last Batman movie made nearly a billion dollars. They're making Batman.

Super Arkham Galaxy
DC Movieverse Batman is being introduced in the Superman sequel...
DC Gameverse Superman being introduced in a Batman sequel...
Huh.
Argh! You're pushing me into fantasy land!
The idea of driving the Batmobile around Gotham City makes me reel. If Rocksteady could pull it off that would be sweet!

The previous Rocksteady games were great. There was only one thing wrong: they weren't afraid of the player. You've got to strike fear into them from the start.
I want crooks by themselves or the last enemy in a group to try to run, or cower in crippling fear (before being crippled for real)

Or a big ass Arkham World
But Arkham Origins was a really solid fun game. Great story as well.

Do they really need Arkham in the title every time?

Rocksteady did not make Origins. And you can be sure that the next Batman is coming fall 2014, with Montreal working on a new batman for 2015 while Rocksteady works on the 2016 game.

Lets hope whatever Arkham 3 ends up as, has some form of co-op or co-op challenge modes
Hehe, solid

Nah, he's right. I love Conroy's work on TAS but in the Arkham games his Batman comes across as an arrogant arsehole. I hated him. Maybe the Voice Director is to blame. The guy who played him in Origins did a much better job.

In the same way not every Assassin's Creed was made by the same Ubi team? That doesn't mean the franchise fatigue won't set in.
Haven't played much of Origins and not against other people playing Batman...but Batman IS an arrogant asshole. It's not Conroy's fault if that's how he came off.

Warner Bros Montreal had some great villains design, heck I loved every one of them.
I kinda hope that Montreal is doing an 'Arrow' game in the vein of the TV show with more freedom of course.
That's how Batman is pretty much supposed to be. What's wrong with you?
There are a lot of episodes where he's not a dick, but...yeah, he's usually a dick. lol. It's why Dick leaves in TAS (Things Change). But then there's stuff like this:

Conroy is amazing as Batman. I loved his work in the Arkham games and pretty much everything he's done for Batman. I can't see how anybody can say he was "bad" as Batman, personally.
I admit I'm extremely biased, though.

Haha! I think I chose my wording poorly. Let me try again: Conroy's Arkhamverse Batman sounded like he enjoyed the smell of his own cold grey farts more than he did actually fighting crime. He was unbearably smug, incredibly dry and offensively pompous.
That ain't my Bats. At least, that ain't how he has come across in my many years of reading/watching.

Do you want to play as Robin? Because I call dibs on Batman.
I don't care if he's considered THE actor, he is atrocious in the first 2 Arkham games and the guy who did it for Origins destroyed him. Conroy gives the most boring robotic performances and has some really poor timing in certain lines. He was completely outclassed in Origins.
