More Batman can only be a good thing as far as I'm concerned. Would rather Rocksteady where working on it though, fingers crossed they know what they are doing. Vita game does sound interesting though.

I was initially disappointed that they won't be continuing with the story from Arkham City however I'm hoping the use of Black Mask, Deathstroke and the assassin plot line will be interesting. I'm certainly more intrigued by the project now that it isn't another Batman v Joker retread. Also hopeful the 3DS version of Blackgate lives up to its potential.

Sounds very promising from that write-up. Some real talent on the dev team plus they've got Rocksteady's game engine to work from. Fingers crossed. The side-on Batman on 3DS sounds intriguing too.

I assume you mean Epic's game engine ...

[Golgo]

Yes that's what I meant, combined with Rocksteady's art assets.

Woah, those screens actually look pretty damn nice and I'm liking the new Batman costume. Need to see it in motion to get a better impression.

Still seems wrong not to have Rocksteady at the helm, but we'll see.

[gaz@manc]

Slightly off topic but any mention of what Rocksteady are up to ? A true Arkham City sequel or giving another DC character the Arkham treatment?

[Greg Moss]

Last I heard they were working on a new Batman game that would focus around the Justice League. Which IMO would be absolutely amazing... As long as Aquaman gets some much deserved screen time.

Hmm... says Armature Studio are taking care of Blackgate. They are led by former Retro Studios guys.

They handled the Vita version of the MGS HD collection. Was that a decent port?

Yes. I played both 2 & 3 to completion, no glitches etc.

Stupidly expensive 40 second CGI teaser which has sod all to do with anything.

Starting to think this is not in safe hands again when I see money being pissed up the wall in this way.

At least when Rocksteady showed CG footage it laid down the basis for the story.

[Guts]

That was more like 10 seconds. Teaser is completely pointless (as they always are), but I doubt that it will affect the final quality of the game.

Wow... That looked great... Can the game look like that real time please? Out of curiosity, who is the dark knight fighting with?
