That comic Batman game was being created by a different developer...

Pandemic = Dark Knight Game
Other Developer = Batman comic game
Traveller's Tales = Batman lego game

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> Please, please make a Batman game in the vein of GTA/Spider-man 2. Imagine, you're running/driving the batmobile around fighting random street thugs, then the bat signal flashes across the sky, you go to meet Commisioner Gordon, and follow the map to Arkham Asylum to fuck up the Joker. It would be awesome.

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> Comment on Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game I wish they'd license the Assassin's Creed Engine for a Batman game... Take away a lot of the repetitiveness and make bigger buildings, add a trick or two like "gliding" if you are sticking to the movie world, or swinging from ropes for a more Comic feel and I think that AC would be a perfect core for a Batman Game...

@Witzbold: I also liked Burton's rendition of Gotham City. Hell, I like a lot of the stuff Burton has done, and those movies fit nicely with his style. Still, though, Nolan's movie beat Burton's out for me in everything else (aside from the Joker, whom we've obviously yet to see thoroughly). It made more sense, had overall better acting, and had a solid feel throughout.

And how old is the joker supposed to be? Look at him in Batman: The Animated Series - he's pretty young in that.

As for the whole Nolan / Burton thing, I've never seen the need for comparing. Batman is one of those characters that's somewhat grown beyond his roots into becoming something of a mythological character. There's no need for a "definitive" version. There's a place in my heart for all of them: Adam West, Michael Keaton, Kevin Conroy and Christian Bale.

That's all there was, right? Right?

Of course, there will never be a better Joker than the one in Batman: The Animated Series. You know it to be true.

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @Witzbold: Tim Burton's dark and dreary Gotham never seemed like anything but a movie set. It wasn't realistic or convincing at all.

TonyMcPwny

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> What we need to ask ourselves is how in an open Gotham Batman would move. Yes, he has a car, yes he has some gadgets. But the thing with the movies is that is almost all they show, either him in a car or running to his car, or him using his grappling gun to get somewhere up high. What we never see is him moving in a normal manner.

Perhaps Batman DOESN'T move about normally. Perhaps he just grapples from building to building and climbs around on them with Bat-suction cups but I tend to believe that at some point he actually runs around on a roof. How do you show that? Is he stealthy? I really can't visualize it.

Bobby McPresscott

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> Honestly the only way you can make a good Batman game is if YOU just take the elements of Assassin creed and adapt it to the Batman world. Think about it if they made the living world of Gotham dark and murky and have Batman pretty much climb and jump on everything(which he does any who) around him also adding in the stealth genre game play.

Just get a good story get someone like Jim lee to do the art and it could be great.

CQC_NastyN8

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> Heck, with the titles Pandemic has under their belt, they can churn out a Batman game in seconds (which is probably what they'll do). It's just like Gearbox and the Alien game -- just slap on some new textures, and you made a quick buck!

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> I do hope that Mr. Ledger can keep up the air of "class" the Joker has though and not just be some generic insane sicko. Since that was another thing I had thought Jack did rather well. Being able to portray both parts of the character.

For some reason the "new" joker reminds me of the ICP. :/

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> I've got some hope for this game to finally do Batman justice, but not much. Pandemic's a fairly good developer, but EA published games based on movie licenses are always some of the worst games of the year. Expecting anything other than a thoroughly mediocre experience is like expecting the opposing team to blow out the Harlem Globetrotters.

Prove me wrong, Pandemic. Please, please prove me wrong.

InsidiousTuna

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> Assassin's Creed + Batman + more things to do = Awesome game.

I hated AC when I first started playing it. But as I slowly gained more weapons and more abilities I started ignoring the main game and simply ran around (on the roof tops, of course!) looking for people to save. Basically I had to make my own fun, so I turned myself into a badass vigilante protecting the people of the city. Just like Batman!

Jumping into a middle of baddies then killing them within a few minutes then running off to save others just gave me a hugh thrill.

I am ERROR

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @PapaBear434: I've heard that this was in part from the overdosing of medication, which also led to his passing. Its almost as if he was trying to give it his all to make the best damned Joker out there. Sorta freaky.

Again, the only negative: Possibly (thanks Luke for reminding me about the multiple studios) a later release date for the already-delayed Mercs 2.

JohnnytheFuture

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @Witzbold: Young or old, if you have the mentality that is the Joker then nothing matters. Personally I think many of us will like Ledger's performance as the new Joker and will be saddened by the fact that he passed on without the chance of him revising the role. Which reminds me. PLEASE MR. NOLAN DON'T KILL OFF THE JOKER. My complaint with majority of the superhero movies is that that they kill off the Villians.

goldwings

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @Witzbold:

To be fair, who the hell else would they have gotten to play Penguin OTHER than Devito? He was physically built and destined for such a role.

As far as Heath Ledger goes; one of my favorite actors, and terribly sad to see him go. And if the trailers, posters, and Micheal Caine's word is to believed, he is going to make a scarier, more disturbing, twisted and psychotic Joker that is going to make your hair stand on end.

PapaBear434

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @JohnnytheFuture: Ya Bale is good. Keaton just didnt fit the physique which made it a bit off I think.

I dont think anyone can beat ol Jack since nobody has got the fucking crazy smile down like he does.

That and Heath Ledger is too young to be the Joker I say.

Goddamn though I still think Danny DeVitos performance as the Penguin was awesome though. Granted it was a bit different from the more "Upperclass" type of persona that has been portrayed in the comics and such. I thought it was an interesting change to his character in the movie that seemed to have worked well.

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @InsidiousTuna:

I think the big difference is that the old movies, besides being strange and campy, is the fact that they were more about the villains than they were about Batman. That's why they could so readily swap out the actor protraying him, but hugely publicized who they got to play whatever villain(s) in the latest flick.

The new series, at least the first, focuses more on Batman himself and his relationship with not only the people close to him, but the villains as well.

@Witzbold:

I suppose it's a taste thing, but in this day and age, I think most people would prefer the less campy, more serious "realistic" tone of the current series rather than that of Burton's come-to-life comic book movie. Don't get me wrong, I liked Keaton, Divito, Nicholson, Pfeiffer... And I know Burton himself was not responsible for Arnold's "Mr. Freeze," and the infamous Bat-Nipples, but his influence is what led to such a thing.

He shouldn't have been let anywhere NEAR Batman, and now that the series is going in the right direction, I don't want to see it regress.

PapaBear434

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @InsidiousTuna: you really thought Mr Lee-Jones was a good Two-Face? I kind of thought he was portrayed as another joker without the white paint and purple suit (He had red tiger stripes).

goldwings

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @Witzbold: See, we're just going to have to agree to disagree, because, while I did think Jack Nicholson was a good pick for the Joker, I have this twisting feeling in the pit of my stomach that Heath Ledger will do a better, truer, more haunting, legitimate job of playing the Joker.

In addition, there could have been no better actor for the role of Batman/Bruce Wayne, other than Christian Bale. As PapaBear434 stated above, Nolan's rendition of Batman is "leaps and bounds" ahead of Burton's.

I know that EA's publishing the game, and if not for them we might not even have a Mercs 2 (well, we would've, but perhaps even farther away), but they could at least let Pandemic get it out the door before having them work on other projects...

You see what I'm getting at? (I know, I'm impatient...) :(

Paladin58

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @Witzbold: Yeah, the first couple were pretty good, but it went to shit when Jim Carrey was cast as the Riddler. Great actor, terrible, cheesy, stupid part. Although, in that same movie (that was Batman and Robin, right?), Tommy Lee Jones was a spectacular Two-Face. I guess I'm trying to say that the movies are kind of hit-or-miss. Except for that piece of shit with George Clooney and Mr. Freeze. That was unequivocally terrible.

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @JohnnytheFuture: I already said I liked Batman Begins.

I just prefered Tim Burtons more due to the excellent casting of Jack Nicholson as the Joker and Danny DeVito as the Penguin. Not to mention he had the whole dark and dreary Gotham city down pretty damned good. Also (although I didnt like Tim Burton as Bruce Wayne) he did a good job of portraying Bruce Wayne as a rather "odd" recluse, instead of the overly perfect character that is shown in other versions of Batman. Which I thought was rather cool. More in the first Batman movie though.

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @Paladin58: You know there's more than one Pandemic studio, yes?

Luke Plunkett

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @Witzbold:

Witz, I love you, but please don't say stuff like that. The public perception of Batman had finally gotten past Adam West's brutal raping and into a cool, dark realm when Tim Burton came along and created that campy, spoofy version. I liked the original at the time, no question, but Chris Nolan's work with the Batman Begin's saga is leaps and bounds better.

Please don't call back to a time where Burton called the shots. If you're a fan of his, just wait. I'm sure he'll be back with yet another quirky, grainy filmed Johnny Depp vehicle in no time.

PapaBear434

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> It'll have a cover system...book it!

phalanges

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> If there is one negative, it pushes Mercenaries 2 farther from release. Dammit, EA, can't you just have them make some crappy, easy-peezy game so they can get back to work, instead of all these incredibly awesome franchises? :(

Paladin58

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @Witzbold: No offense Witz, but I believe Christopher Nolan is doing a FANTASTIC job with the current films. He's taken Batman back to its deep, dark, gritty roots.

Tim Burton took a similar approach, but unfortunately, the darkness in his films always end up looking concurrently comical, cartoon-esque even. In Batman Begins we get a more serious view into Gotham, Batman, and the storyline that interweaves each and every character.

When I look back on Tim Burton's Batman, I think of it as second-best, and somewhat, a joke.

JohnnytheFuture

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> I have stated about a million times on this site my absolute love for open world sandbox games. What I have rarely mentioned was my love for Batman (not old, slightly creepy pedophiliac Batman, but angry scary Batman.)

What I would LOVE is to see these two geeky loves of mine smashed together in a peanut butter and chocolate-like mesh. Though, it would likely cause me not to shower for weeks at a time.

PapaBear434

]]> <![CDATA[Pandemic Are Indeed Doing A New Batman Game]]> @illmatic291: Go play Crackdown, and dream about what could be.

Seriously, though... Crackdown is a perfect formula for a Batman game. You have the secret base that you drive the Batmobile (or fly a Batplane, or pilot a Batboat) out of, and you just add some better climbing abilities (Assassin's Creed?) and some grappling hook usage, and you could have a perfect Batman: Animated Series game.

Whenever I think about that game, though, it makes me sad that it will probably never see the light of day.
