Awsome can't wait to see the new Batman game..
Any exclusive characters?
@Z3u5000
Sony will probably spend 100 million to secure the rights to play as Robin or Alfred. 😂
@KelticDevil It’s good Xbox is investing their billion $ for right causes - creating big titles, buying studios and building high performance hardware platforms.
@Z3u5000
Exactly!
I'll always take more Batman games.
@Z3u5000 Strong fanboying 🦾😄
Some people sure do love Sony on here, infact some people mention Sony in near enough every article they comment on...
Obsessed? Or Butt Hurt?
Anyway this is good news, really enjoyed the batman trilogy but I missed having the joker around, so hopefully the new batman game takes on a different time line
wish someone would make a batman animated series game. maybe for the switch if xbox and ps gamers aren't into it... but I grew up on the 90s cartoon. At least Im getting Samurai Jack.
@Kopite likewise
@playstation_king I hope Joker is left out of thr next Batman game personally he hasn't been the "main" villain in the last 3 games (City, Origins, Knight) yet still had the most screen time of any of the others. As much as i love the character I just want someone else to shine.
@Z3u5000 OK??
@Kopite I'd say Joker was the main villain in City and Origins - he was pulling the strings behind the scenes. You could even argue he was a bigger threat to Batman in Knight than Scarecrow was. I agree somebody else should take the spotlight, but Joker is too iconic to not be in it.
I can't wait to see the details! I won't be tuning in live, but finding out some more information about these upcoming games is absolutely on my next gen bucket list. I am always down for another good superhero game, and a villain game too!
@TimG13 he was never shown to be the main guy though, which has hurt 3 very good characters in games where they should have been the focus - hell Rocksteady even lied when they said he wasn't going to be in Knight at all. I really hope the Court Of Owls is the main in whatever is next as has been rumoured.
@Kopite
He’s not being a fanboy. He’s being honest. And his statement was correct.
@KelticDevil so Sony haven't been creating big titles? the studios purchased is a great step for MS but we won't see the fruits of that for a few years. Hopefully they have better to show than whats been offered up this generation.
