Gotham Themed Xbox One Controller Pops up on Amazon

Xbox has released a sneak peek into the “Gotham: The Legend Reborn” TV Series that will be starting up this September. Gotham is the origin story of the great DC Comics Super-Villains and vigilantes, revealing an entirely new chapter that has never been told. Before there was Batman, there was Gotham. In the sneak peek, it shows what it takes for Commissioner Gordon to navigate the layers of corruption in the spawning ground of the world’s most iconic villains, Gotham City.

"revealing an entirely new chapter that has never been told"

Pretty sure it has.

Who wants to see a show about Batman without Batman, where it relies on villains before they were villains to fill the gaps. Really should of done a series on Bruce as he just gets back from training all over the world.

RocknRolla3527d ago

I'll give the show a crack but I'm really interested to see this themed controller. We've got the Titanfall controller and the Advanced Warfare one out when CoD is released. Keen to see this controllers design.

KendrickLamar3527d ago

IGN gave the series premier a score lower than The Last Ship (Produced by Michael Bay, hehe) I wouldn't put my hopes up for the show.

As for the controller, might be nice. The Game of Thrones Xbox One looks awesome, this one might be good too.

@Kendrick

I couldn't care less what IGN gave it. I'll watch it and make up my own mind.

Heisenburger3527d ago (Edited 3527d ago )

It's not a show about Batman. The show is called "Gotham". I personally have no interest in it, but because of what the show is, not what I THINK it is, or should be.

It's an interesting idea. I just am not the target audience for this. You clearly are not either, but you may want to get a handle on what this show actually is before you bash it.

And it's "have", not "of".

Yeah and my point is Gotham before Batman was boring as shit.

Bruce is a little kid who will be crying for most of the episodes and being depressed with his parents death. Not to mention child actors these days...not the best are they.

The villains are not villains yet, not to mention the back stories being changed.

The story was originally supposed to just feature Bullock and Gordon but with them being scared by low ratings they added Bruce and the villains to give it a marketing push. I mean look at how many villains they are squeezing into just the first episode.

So I do know what it's about, my point is why they thought it was a good idea is beyond me.

The reason people love Gotham is because it houses one of the most known, well loved superheros...Batman, without him it's just a boring old place.

"And it's "have", not "of"

Oh dear, I'm so full of shame right now...I can't live with myself /s

You clearly don't know much about James Gordons past.

It's about Origin tales.
Batman villains like Penguin/Joker/Scarecrow/Poison Ivy/Etc... Before they became villains.

Seeing them transform, while Bruce is being given life lessons from Gordon.

I'm sorry...You don't want to see that?

Any Batman fan in their right mind wants to see Gotham.

DC will have Flash/Constantine/Arrow/Gotham on Television by this fall. And you're complaining about Gotham because it doesn't have Batman? Kid get out..

Course you're "Foxtrot"...Make a lot of wise ass statements when you don't know what you're talking about.

-Foxtrot3527d ago (Edited 3527d ago )

Don't be that guy and tell someone what he does or does not know...it's highly arrogant

How can can it be an origin tale if they are CHANGING most of the origin backgrounds. The main screw up is most of the villains know each other, look it up in the early reviews.

Not every "Batman" fan needs to see something which isn't being handled correctly and something they've already seen because unlike the mainstream crowd peopke actually read the comics.

So no....YOU get out and go pick up a comic while you're at it

They are releasing all sorts of themed controllers now. Trying to make money out of that overpriced controller I see. And before any of you condemn me for what I say, compare what both of them has inside for the price.

Just saw the cod themed controller. I think it looks really good.would like to see this gotham themed controller sounds good and regarding the show i've been waiting for it and the new season of arrow to begin. So many tv shows based on comic heros now. Flash, constantine, firestorm, gotham, agents of shield. :) I like it.

RocknRolla3527d ago

I wonder what special agreement Xbox have since they posted this video and not FOX.

incendy353527d ago

I am excited about all the untold stories of the villains and how they grew up. The show is supposed to be about how growing up in Gotham molded these people to become who we know in the comics.

RocknRolla3527d ago

Its something different and to be honest will be good to get some new shows starting.

-Foxtrot3527d ago

If you've been keeping up with the show news you'll know they are changing things around so in a way the origin stories to these villains won't be the same. Kind of defeating the point

Look at Posion Ivy to Ivy Pepper, totally unneeded. Then we have hints of Selina Kyle and Bruce will become friends when they are younger.

SteamPowered3527d ago

Boner! I love themed controllers.

gamer78043527d ago

picture has been removed, any pics elsewhere?

RocknRolla3527d ago

Not that I've seen i don't even think there was a picture of the controller on Amazon to begin with. just a leaked listing.

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5062d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905062d ago (Edited 5062d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5062d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5062d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495062d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5062d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5062d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
