SCANS and Info About the Batman: Arkham Asylum Game

Slashgamer has found scans of the Game Informer coverage of the new Batman Game, and god does it look good. The Graphics look a lot like Bioshock, I guess GI wasn't lying. :-p

Found? Heh....Hey I found this film on internet so it must be free right ;)

Still, it's nice for those of us outside of the GI delivery zone to get a peek but I can't see them being too happy about those being online and they probably won't be very long.

So look fast because it's worth it! The Joker has a Jack Nicholson look to him in some of those shots...and is that Bane?!

Silogon5728d ago

Now that is Batman! Dark Knight, while alright, is not Batman to me. He's action man in a suit that kind of looks like Batmans. This game has an art style that I dig. This is the game!

rockleex5727d ago

The Dark Knight may not have felt like Batman to you. But that was the only approach they could take. All the other Batman movies felt like jokes.

It may stray from the traditional Batman a little bit... but I, and millions of other people, love the new path it is taking.

By the way, The Dark Knight is one of the best movies released this year. It's definitely going to win awards.

Rute5727d ago

A movie needn't be uninspiring in order to avoid being a joke. I really liked the Dark Knight, but I also felt that it lacked personality. Arkham Asylum, on the other hand, seems to have tons of personality, but the style is far from a joke.

As for graphic novel films, Sin City is one of my favourites. It's both disturbing and over the top cool.

Nitrowolf25727d ago

it looks good i just hope it doesnt dissapoint

hazeblaze5727d ago

Well... from the scans alone, it already looks better than any other Batman game that has come out before it. Still, I know what you mean... hopefully the gameplay lives up to the visuals. We should not go through an entire decade without having a decent Batman or Superman game!!! Seems like those would be easy targets for great games.

InMyOpinion5727d ago

Looks like it's using Epic's Unreal engine. Very nice indeed.

Sheddi5727d ago

exactly what i was thinking.

Bazookajoe_835727d ago

There are alot of games using Ut3 engine and still looks like crap, there are only a few that can pull of some great graphics with it...

InMyOpinion5727d ago

True, it's funny how some people criticize the engine itself and not the developers using it.

The only thing I fear about this game is it seems to be taking too many pages from DARK TOMORROW and that's not good. The one location is probably going to hurt the game in the end, just like it did in BATMAN DT.

We'll see, though. I'm amped after seeing the pics but I wish someone else would snag the IP for Batman like one of Sony's internal studios. The quality would be through the roof.

LittleBigPlanet 3 Servers Are Officially Shut Down 'Indefinitely,' Sony Confirms

Sony has confirmed that LittleBigPlanet 3 servers on PlayStation 4 will remain offline “indefinitely” following troubles with the service from earlier this year.

Sad day, hopefully they’ll allow a third party server solution. Goes to show game preservation is an uphill battle.

blackblades1h ago

Sad day oh wait everyone that whining about it didn't play it or haven't played it in years and never was going back to it. Funny how people start to care when this happens but when it was actually up those same people didn't even pay attention to it.

What needs to be highlighted by this is that the series has had 4 main games then that go kart spin off yet sony let them all die.

There is 0 games like this on ps5 and to my knowledge 0 first party main kids games no tech demo crap

Sony purchased Media Molecule studio the ip then tossed it away letting it rot for over 7 years yet the community carried on until now were we have lost 16 years on all games of content along with no replacement.

Everyone goes on about ea killing studios but sony has killed way way more but its fine its sony they can do no wrong.

Before the sony blidboys track me down again go fire up your holy boxes all the dlc they tossed out all the trophies and all the user content needs a server side handshake that no longer works. Yes offline single player version 1.0 works but that is it.

Media Molecule was not cut i know but they only made LBP and dreams it was reported they just missed the chopping block
https://gamerant.com/little...

Do not forget the dreams game was tossed out 2020 but 3 years later support was pulled
https://www.digitaltrends.c...

All in all this is another failure at sony on a long long list in the past 10 years

Inverno3h ago

It's kind of hard to disagree when SONY has a history of abandoning many of their IPs. They killed Mod Nation and turnt it into LBP Karting because of brand recognition but left it to die too. They made their own Smash Bros only to rush the studio, and turn the game into an advert for recent release at the time and still let it die. They shut down PS Home for more or less the same reason, they left it to rott till it became too broken and exploited to bother fixing.

just_looken55m ago

This right here

Playstation home is what facebook is trying to make now but in vr that metaverse deal

Imagine if sony kept up ps home development

The death of playstation forums was also a huge loss

u-bEttA-rUn2h ago

Their games were unable to attract the masses every game that came out the attachment grew smaller and smaller they advertise LBP for years the industry changed and then came fortnight... You want Sony to continue to support them which cost them money that they're not getting back from the studio.

Tacoboto3h ago

I feel bad for Media Molecule. For the ideas they have it seems they need a publisher that supports games like this and Dreams especially for as many players as possible.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC10h ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer11h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

monkey60211h ago(Edited 11h ago)

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Yui_Suzumiya9h ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde9h ago

Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...

5, 3, 1, 4, 2.

I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.

But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me

SeTTriP43m ago

This right here is my order as I thought DMC 5 was amazing and obviously 3 comes after 4 was great and 1 for the nastilgic value it holds 2 was so terrible that my local GameStop gave full refunds to people who returned it.

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

RavenWolfx9h ago

Yeah, I loved the Legends games so much.

ZeekQuattro16h ago

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Knightofelemia14h ago(Edited 14h ago)

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

Terry_B14h ago

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff218314h ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh14h ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia13h ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins14h ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

Abnor_Mal13h ago

The first game was the best imo.
