Lest the blog become too classy...

Hot chicks in Batman shirts

Probably NSFW.

And don't be getting snooty about what is and isn't hot - it's important to have variety in our objectification of women :)

It's possible this game is going to rock

Cinematic trailer for Arkham Asylum 2:



Other points of interest:
--Thugs will have a much wider variety of appearance than in the first game
--Most thugs will be grouped into gangs, each headed by a staple Batman villain. Confirmed so far are Joker and Two-Face, with many more hinted
--You can keep track of the gangs in your criminal database
--Thugs not attached to a gang roam the streets
--Riddler thugs have replaced Riddler maps in the new game, and will require interrogation before they will talk

And:

--Batman will be able to use ALL of his gadgets in combat. The example shown was Batman vaulting over a thug, spraying explosive gel on him and then detonating it.
--Batman will be able to taunt his enemies, often resulting in some or all of the thugs fleeing.
--Batman will be able to smash through weak walls with his bare hands for a new takedown
--Batman will have new gadgets, confirmed so far are a broadcast analyzer, smoke pellets and an Ultra Sonic Emitter (USE) used to summon swarms of bats.

Settle in...

It's over 130 pages, but it's worth a look for anyone who loved Batman: The Animated Series. (Which should be everyone here, if you didn't love it, I'm not sure we can be friends anymore. ;)

This is a PDF of the original writer's bible for Batman: The Animated Series, with illustrations and character concepts. Some interesting stuff here, including a younger-looking Robin and pudgier Alfred, and interesting revelations about Montoya's backstory that never made it into the show and are now non-canon, given the role she has in the DCU.

Dang, one more that escaped my notice when it originally aired...

Team Fortress 2: Meet the Scout

(not one of their strongest, but I gotta collect 'em all)

I believe this to just be a fan creation...

...but it's so cleverly staged that I was very impressed.

Purports to be a trailer for an animated Arkham Asylum movie.

Arkham Asylum gameplay vid

I posted the trailer for this a few weeks back, but they just released a vid of in-game stealth action and it looks pretty great to me (in spite of the Brit narrator who sounds like a nineteen-year-old soccer hooligan).

I had trouble embedding it, but the link is HERE, and if anyone can make it embed, please just edit it in.



Edited - Just had to tell Blogger to ignore whatever coding flaws it thought it was seeing.

Awkward!



blank you want to make your own

Dopey but kinda funny

Batman plays Mortal Kombat vs. DC:

Christian Bale Wants to Kick Your Ass

This Christian Bale tirade was recorded on the set of the new Terminator movie. Apparently he's tearing into the Director of Photography for wandering into the shot while the camera was rolling.

Should've used the batvoice...

Arkham Asylum

Got another trailer for a DC-themed video game here, and this one - Arkham Asylum - looks much better than the MMO! Seems to be 3rd-person with equal parts action and stealth, and being set in Arkham, I suspect it'll play a little like a horror game to boot.

(also: notice that Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill from Batman: The Animated Series reprise their voices)
