Das dürfte wirklich der Fatman aus "The Dark Knight Returns" sein. ^^
Als Action Figur sieht er auch so aus:

[SonKratos - Z]

Ja stimmt, jetzt wo ich das Bild von der Figur sehe, erinnere ich mich wieder sehr gut dran.
Hab Grad mein altes Comic herausgekramt, Mensch stecken da Erinnerungen.^^

Finds jedenfalls klasse das Rocksteady alte Erinnerungen (von Fans) durch solche coole Einfälle wieder aufruft/weckt.

[Scarious D]

Höhö sieht der lustig aus
Der gepanzerte Anzug wäre auch sehr nice ! Aber lassen wir uns überraschen, hoffentlich werden die Kostüme nachträglich nachgereicht und zu einem angemessenen Preis.

Ob's für uns PSler wieder was exklusives gibt?

[SonKratos - Z]

Wäre durchaus denkbar, immerhin gabs ja Joker (fpür die Herausforderungen) exklusiv für uns Ps3 Gamer.

[Shorai]

Batman Beyond Kostüm sieht am besten aus und mal gucken was er kostet wird ... !?!

[NeoPhoenix]

Das Batman Animated Series Kostüm ist auch echt nice. Bin saugespannt, wie man den kriegt und vor allem wie er sich so spielen lässt bzw. wie es als kleines Gimmick rüberkommt

Die Rechnung scheint nicht ganz aufzugehen, ich dachte die Figur wäre Schwarz weiß.
Aber ganz im ernst Jungs in Farbe sieht das ganze um einiges besser aus.

Neue Details aus dem Play (UK) Magazin!
PLAY Reveals New Details: Detective Mode Detailed

The September issue of PLAY magazine gives us new details in their 6 page blowout!

This brilliant article has revealed some great new information on Arkham City as well as providing some awesome new screenshots. We’ve given a brief summary on the new details below but make sure to pick up the issue as soon as you can and check out the article and screenshots yourself!

Along with several new images, PLAY informs us of the following:

-Arkham City is full of little hints and nods, when entering Crime Alley, a button prompt allows Batman to pay respects to his parents.

- Detective mode features a surveillance system that allows Batman to eavesdrop on enemies, paitaint players will be able to discover alot of the story by simply stopping and listening, though there are red herrings and "Chinese whispers" everywhere.

- Arkham City will feature a compass system at the top of the screen that directs players where to go, when Detective Mode is activated, this compass will disappear, combined with the limited ability to view the environment, this makes navigating the City in Detective Mode difficult.

- Getting attacked whilst in Detective Mode will cause it short out, and Batman's vision will resort to normal.

Detective Mode has changed in Arkham City




- Arkham City will feature Elite enemies, like Tyger Guards or the well equipped thugs of the Penguin, they will carry jammers that disable Batman's Detective Mode; "You've then got to identify them, find them and take them out to allow you use it again and carry on" says Dax Ginn

- Catwoman's Thief Vision highlights the City in an orange hue, and enemies become bright white.

-New screens demonstrate a massively increased draw distance, and indoor stages (Which appears to be a Silent Predator section) are much larger than Arkham Asylum.

The PLAY September issue is in stores now. We will not be providing scans of the article or the images within it, please do not request this.

PS: Sobald es das ganze auf deutsch gibt poste ich es,
aber aktuell müssen die die kein englisch verstehen leider so damit auskommen.^^

Goty, Goty Goty...

Arkham City: The Game
Below is a list of features within the game, such as gameplay mechanics, characters, and the storyline, be warned, this section will contain spoilers!

Batman
We have categorised Batman's many gameplay abilities into sections for easier reading, simply click the spoiler button to read about the specific gameplay aspect.

Movement

Spoiler öffnen

Movement was an important part of Arkham Asylum, and Batman was forced to use both his great physical abilities and fantastic array of high tech gadgets to traverse the Asylum. Arkham City however; is five times bigger than the Asylum, so it makes sense that Batman has a whole host of new ways to get around the sprawling city!

Gliding
Gliding has been given a major overhaul in Arkham City, in Asylum, the player was limited to a very simple glide mechanic that allowed the player to slow descent, allowing them to cover more ground whilst airborne, and perform turns in the air. In Arkham City, Batman swoops across the rooftops, and can execute two new moves that allow him to maintain his glide indefinitely.



The first move, the Dive Boost, is very similar to the Dive Bomb (Mentioned below) where Batman will pull his cape in and hurtle towards the ground, opening his cape at the last second, and using the newfound boost to make him soar back upwards into the sky!



The second move is the Grapple Boost; remember the Grapple Gun from Arkham Asylum? This time Batman can fire it mid-glide, and use the line to pull himself through the city, many spectators have said it seems very similar to last year’s Just Cause 2, which featured a grapple gun parachute combo to great effect.

Helicopter Hang



If Batman is feeling tired, or perhaps wants to travel around in a stealthier fashion, he can now use his Grappel Gun to zip up to a helicopter and hang off it, as well as a sneaky way to travel around Arkham City, Batman can also use this elevated position to plan out his next plan of attack, before dropping into the frey.

Advanced Line Launcher



The Line Launcher from Arkham Asylum makes a return, but the gadget has been heavily upgraded since the last time we saw it, Batman is still able to use it to quickly get from one place to another, though in Arkham City it will open up a whole new range of movement and strategic possibilities.

Rocksteady have confirmed that the player is able to fire and travel along the rope line, in the same manner as which they did in Asylum, however this time around the player can swivel the camera around Batman, and at any point during the Line Launcher transportation, execute a flip into the air, following up with a quick second shot from the Line Launcher. Batman can perform this move with 360 degrees of flexibility, and similar to the Grapple Boost, this tactic can be repeated to keep Batman off the ground indefinitely. When travelling down the line, the player can press a button that will slow down time, allowing for easier line launcher shots.




But that's not the only new trick the Line Launcher is capable of, Batman can also anchor his line between any two points, and then flip up on to it, balancing in place. Batman can the move the distance of line, using his position to plan an attack, or just look plain cool! More aggressive players can then choose a target, and swing down using the line, slamming their chosen enemy into the ground!

Advanced Movement Techniques

OPM UK wrote:
Batman also has new moves for “running across rooftops, blending in, running while grappling, sliding underneath objects and jumping between objects.” Batman can also “slide and smash through vents, slide straight into hanging off an edge. You can dive through windows and over railings as well.”

Batman will also be able to execute some flashier moves this time round, such as being able to dive off rooftops and as stated above, slide under and through small gaps! A small but noticeable new advanced movement appeared in our very first gameplay footage from Arkham City...
Though hard to make out, the new move, which we're calling the Vault Roll, sees Batman effortlessly scaling a wall, and dropping straight into a roll, much quicker than his simple vault from Asylum!

Combat

Spoiler öffnen

Dive Bomb



Batman can drop from either a great height, or execute the manoeuvre mid glide, plummeting towards the ground to either reach his destination quicker, or make a dramatic entrance to a fight. Rocksteady have confirmed that thugs will jump back in fear, and are not forced back by a form of shockwave generated by Batman’s impact.

Double takedown



In Arkham Asylum, Batman could takedown one enemy in combat at a time, in Arkham City, Batman can now take multiple enemies out of the fight, the Ain’t no Place for a Hero trailer shows Batman viciously choke slamming two thugs at the same time!

Triple Takedown



Not content at taking out two enemies at the same time, in Arkham City Batman can take out as many as three! Please note that whilst we describe the move as a takedown, it may well be a counter move!

Batman can counter thrown objects, by simply catching them and throwing them back.

Batman can flip off of one enemy, and attack another in a fluid movement.

Players can use the Batclaw to pull enemies towards them, and into a painful takedown.

Batman has a new power move called Beatdown, performed by pressing X and B (360) or Square and Circle (PS3) that unleashes a flurry of punches and kicks on his opponent. A demonstrated use of this is to takedown armoured enemies.

As well as the Glide kick, Batman can perform and a throat slam by firing his grapple gun at an enemy whilst gliding, which fire Batman into his opponent, slamming them into the ground.

Batman will use the environment against his enemies, thanks to context sensitive animations Batman will slam thugs heads against walls if he is close enough.

You can employ Explosive Gel into combat, executing a quick flip, Batman can spray either the ground or an enemy, and detonate the gel at his leisure for explosive effect.

Batman's attacks can knock thugs into each other, potentially taking multiple enemies out at the same time.

Silent Predator

Spoiler öffnen

In Arkham Asylum Batman could perform many exotic environment based takedowns (Such as the Corner Takedown or Ledge Takedown) Arkham City is set to increase the variety of these takedowns. Similar to combat, we've excluded certain gadgets like the Ultra Sonic Emitter, which can summon bats to aid you, and will go into the stealthier aspects of the Dark Knight at a later date!

Wall Takedown



Batman can burst through thin walls to grab an enemy and choke him unconscious, in gameplay terms it's an awesome combination of Asylum's explosive gel and a standard silent takedown! Comic savvy viewers will notice that the move seems to be inspired by the Dark Knight Returns.

Double Silent Takdown



Similar to the combat takedown, Batman can now take two enemies out of the fight, and this time they won't even know what hit them!

Hanging Takedown



Batman can perform this move when an enemy is below him, lowering himself down, Batman chokes the unfortunate thug out with his legs!

Smoke Bombs



Sometimes it's best to simply call it a day and get out of there, unfortunately most of Batman's foes carry guns, and usually aren't in the mood for letting him escape; to get round this, Batman has the smoke bomb, a small smoke grenade that distracts the enemy and obscures Batman from view just long enough for the Dark Knight to make his escape! To use the smoke bomb, the player must hit the Y or Triangle button when he is spotted by enemies.

Batman can also sabotage his enemies weapons, so that when enemies spot and attempt to fire at him, the guns will misfire.

Gadgets and Detective Vision

Spoiler öffnen

Detective Vision
In Arkham City Detective Vision has been given an overhaul, in Arkham Asylum DV made the environment transparent and enemies illuminated. To combat a frequent problem of players simply leaving the mode on, and severally reducing the visual experience of the game, in Arkham City DV will highlight enemies and interactive objects in more detail and at greater range than before, though the environment will be very hard to distinguish, forcing players to use DV sparsely if they want to navigate effectively.

Detective vision will highlight all characters, weapons and interactive objects in the area.

Explosive Gel
Also returns from Arkham Asylum, the gel can be deployed in combat, either against the environment, or onto an attacker.

Batclaw
Can pull thugs towards Batman, who are then promptly finished off with a brutal takedown. Can also be used to grab items like Riddler Trophies.

Line Launcher
An improved version to it's predecessors' in Arkham Asylum, able to fire multiple lines, hold a static line across two points, and be utilised for a special drop-kick, for more details please refer to the in depth description in the Movement section.

Batarangs
Very little is known about Arkham City's standard Batarang, they will likely remain the same as Arkham Asylums.

Remote Control Batarang
Another returnee from Arkham Asylum, this new RC Batarang has new features that enable it to perform a 180 degree turn, boost through the air and brake. Previews have also stated the RC 'rang is capable of carrying an electrical charge, to solve a Riddler riddle.

Cryptographic Sequencer
Batman's remote hacking device allows him to decode encrypted data sticks and listen in on radio broadcasts throughout Arkham City, such as GCPD comms, which may alert him to crimes.

Smoke Bombs
A new addition to Batman's arsenal, allowing him to make a hasty escape if discovered. For more information, please read our Silent Predator section.

Ultra Sonic Emitter UNCONFIRMED
A tool that allows players to attract a swarm of bats to a designated area; first reported in the 2009 issue of GameInformer. Rocksteady Community manager Sarah Wellock later issued this statement:

Games are in a constant state of flux and this demo was shown July last year to press. Naturally a lot has changed since then and I sadly can't comment on the status of that feature....

Gameplay Features
