Robin skins revealed!

I'm absolutely loving the "standard" Robin suit, that's a great looking Robin. Red Robin is a pleasant and unexpected surprise (I honestly would've put more money on Nightwing, but Red Robin still kicks ass) and the TAS Robin indicates that all the characters will have their TAS design as their alternate costume (if there is going to be any more alternate costumes).

I thought there was only going to be one Robin design. Can we get this with the Robin download, or is this separate like the Batman skins?
Edit: Also if anyone looks back here, new gameplay/character reveal video.

That was good I still think the Mr. Freeze trailer is better than again that's the only one I've watched besides the very first one that premiered on the video game awards.

It's a work in progress please suggest to me how to improve it

I didn't get Arkham Asylum, but I actually am thinking about getting this. It looks amazing.

And uh...I found this. Seems legit.

It is. The Riddler trailer has been out for awhile now.

Personally, that would have been my favorite trailer if the Penguin one didn't exist.

Damn, I thought I was finally onto something big.

I don't know, I think this one rocks. That may be because the Riddler's my favorite villain in Batman (then Scarecrow).

Not going to spoil anything, but there are at least two more villains unaccounted for in your list that show up in the game.

Gotta wait another 3 goddamn weeks for this game to come out on Steam.

Oh well, I'll have Battlefield 3 to entertain me till then!

Finished the main story and some of the side games. List of things I love about this game:

*SPOILER WARNING - READ AT OWN RISK* (we could really use spoiler tags)












- The new variations in combos, the new gadgets, and the new upgrades. I love being able to disarm someone and also break their weapons, summon bats to stun nearby opponents, not to mention fly all over the city with the grapnel upgrade. Basically, as almost every bit of promotional material stated, they took the concepts introduced in Arkham Asylum and expanded on them.
- The surprise appearance of Clayface.
- The death of the Joker was very well done. If this really is Mark Hammil's final time with the character, he left on a high note. I'll miss Joker not being in "Arkham 3" (if there is one), but they've already begun building a story around it - with Harley being pregnant and all.
- The Riddler challenges are a lot better than Asylum, since there's an actual story there and the challenges themselves are a lot more complex and engaging than in the previous game.
- The main story's about the same length as Asylum, but the vast amount of side quests make up for that. Catwoman's levels, Zsasz's game, Riddler challenges, Deadshot, the Hush storyline, etc.
- Tiny, the Great White Shark. Where's Adam West when you him? ;)
- "Solomon Grundy, born on a Monday..." In fact, I loved Penguin's entire part in this story. He comes as a complete asshole in this game and it's great to finally kick his ass after the hell he puts you through.
- The Mr. Freeze boss fight, which forces you to be somewhat creative. Had a lot of fun with that one.

What exactly do mean by "stuck on the Penguin?"

If you're at the part where he's blocking you with the ice gun, then you need to find Mr. Freeze. After you rescue him, you'll need to go find the security override (which is back in the room that the cops you rescued locked down). Once you get that, you can return to Penguin and use that to stop the ice gun. After you're finished with that, you'll go into the Solomon Grundy boss fight.

So I just don't go in that room where the Penguin is? :? And I have to go back to the ice room, which nearly gave me a heart attack te first time I died in there?
