At this point, I assume their 'out' for the Game of Thrones game not impacting the show's narrative will be every single character in the game dying.

It's non-canon because it allows for making the right decision.

That's bigger than the one in Games and I still can't tell what the Harley preorder thing is.

I wonder if a driveable Batmobile means we might finally get a full fledged Gotham to run around in. Instead of the gimped versions of the last two games. It was mostly okay in AC since that was supposed to be just a walled off section of town but in AO it was just stupid seeing as you were still arbitrarily stuck just in one area and they didn't have a good excuse for nobody on the streets.

That's what Gameinformer says. Much larger Gotham with wider streets.

Here's the Gameinformer article:

Not a whole lot there right now, but it has a picture of the weird Batmobile from the side.

Arkham Knight is apparently a new character.


I guess they could mean just the identity is new though.

regardless of the 6 preorder costumes, I'm actually loving stunned and pleased that this is a game where you can UNLOCK COSTUMES as opposed to paying for all that poo poo as DLC. Remember when costumes with cool effects were unlockable rewards? I sure as poo poo don't but it's nice that we'll actually get that kind of reward back in a game. The webswinging mechanics alone almost have me sold for this, and as for the combat...well the combat was one-note as gently caress in SM2 and I didn't give a poo poo. At best, the combat in this new one looks alright.

They probably realized if they sold it it would be delisted in a couple of months.

The Marvel Universe game would have a tie in mobile game where nothing really happens and you keep hoping for better gameplay.

The graphics were probably too complicated.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

The next gen version doesn't look any better though. It can't be a graphics thing.

The Xbone SDK is probably still a huge mess or something.

Aphrodite

It's crap. The console was rushed to market about 6 months too early.

Lots of games that are not exactly graphical powerhouses like Call of Duty Ghosts and Trials Fusion are at lower resolutions or framerates than the PS4 because the tools are so bad.

Aphrodite

Because that somehow makes sense with it coming out on everything else?

Aphrodite

Especially considering it has the smallest install base by far.

Though I don't know how well Spider-Man games do outside NA.

There's a guy running around on Gamefaqs who keeps posting fake impressions for some reason.

Seems weird to have a grudge against a game.

Spider-Man 2 is not a good game.

Try playing it today. Go ahead.

Word on the street is that Injustice 2 just got announced at wondercon. Not really surprising.

It was apparently announced at C2E2 but nobody noticed.

What I read is that they kind of slipped it in during an Arkham Knight thing but the crowd was too loud and almost nobody heard it. That's where the rumor of an Arkham Knight delay came from: They were actually saying the next Injustice is out next year.

Aphrodite

They probably didn't bother to have it install much because that takes extra work.

You're going to need a ton off friends since a Friend only resource is the limiting factor.

Apparently a big thing in the game is more enterable buildings as well as being able to see into the buildings through the windows.

Not just that, but buildings you can enter while being Batman.

No more using the door like some sort of Aquaman, you can Batman through windows and stuff to get into buildings.

So what you're saying is I'll finally be able to bust through Gotham City's architecturally mandated skylights-in-every-building? God bless us every one.

That's one of the specific examples they used, yeah.

They could presumably have Predator 'rooms' that now span multiple buildings.

I don't see why they wouldn't bring Baker back if they were using Joker again.

PS4, Xbone, 360, PS3 in that order.

360/PS3 is negligible though.


Edit: Oh, you mean the old one. 360 is a bit better but nothing noticeable.

Conan has done a ton of stuff with DC animation the last few years, because they're on the same lot.

Yeah, technology usage is usually a skill in the games. She would probably have generic punches otherwise.

Hahaha, did Young Justice seriously have Superman struggle with the weight of a bus? What a terrible cartoon.

The Timm cartoons did this too you know, then came up with that silly World of Cardboard thing to explain it that everyone thinks is Superman canon now.
