I love what i'm seeing here. Maybe there's hope for comic book adaptations, Warner Brothers really decided to take this seriously, and allowed RockSteady to make a game as if they were making a project for a legitimate form of entertainment. The way they are making a new story, and making their own visual style, just like one would for a movie adaptation, is really refreshing.
In case our enthusiasm isn't already apparent, we were left really impressed with Batman: Arkham Asylum. The savvy script and excellent voice acting are sure to please Batman fans, while the combo fighting system and stealth elements look like they'll be great fun. The game is already looking incredibly impressive visually--hopefully an indication that it's nearing completion in time for its Q2 2009 release window. Eidos has promised us a hands-on with the game in the coming months, so hopefully we'll be visiting Arkham again for a more in-depth look shortly.
The "Bioshock" thing going on, was a smart concept to adopt, i'm not advocate of these kind of games having to needlessly be open world.

I'm pumped for this. I'm not expecting anything incredible, but as long as it's solid adventure action game I'll be totally into it.
Oh, and, Kevin Conroy :drool

I enjoyed RockSteady's last game, Urban Chaos: Riot Response, so I've got hope for this one. Everything I've seen so far looks good. It's all heading in the right direction.

I haven't watched this trailer, but I saw some other stuff a while ago and it looked great. It'd be nice if something good comes out of it.
