Correct me if I'm wrong (I was only a moderate comic book nerd growing up), but aren't the recent Batman Arkham games (Asylum and City) basically "silver age" style games? He started out a dark and brooding character - it was only the TV show and the later comics that lightened him up a bit...
The Silver Age ended in the 70's. The Arkham games reflect the Modern Age of Batman and are appropriately dark and gritty. |

I think timeless or fucking fictional works better than immortal.
I really haven't seen more than 3 or 4 episodes but I would love to see Rocksteady's take on Batman Beyond as Zaibach mentioned. The caped crusader is already usually high tech and futuristic but it would be fun for him to be even moreso and have the plot in the future... get all deus exxy with it. |

Ahh....did i miss something where he got super powers? I thought he just inherited a lotta money from his dead parents
Immortality isn't a super power when it comes to superheroes. It just comes with the job. Even if you get killed, you'll inevitably come back to life through some convoluted/nonsensical plot twist. |

Batman is immortal. As is Superman, Spider-Man, Captain America, Iron Man, Wonder Woman and every other superhero that never ages. I thought this was already established. |

This doesn't bother me one bit honestly. It's definitely a cool era to visit. And as long as Rocksteady is making, I'm buying.
Check his twitter, or if you prefer use Google, he is done. He is also no longer under contract. It was physically hurting his vocal cords to do the voice was one reason he gave, which seems like a fairly legit reason to quit a job even if you like it.
I also think that he got a bit expensive for the powers that be...but that is just me.
Oh no, damaging his vocal cords. Cause he has so much else going for his career. hahahaha.
He does voice acting. That's his bread these days...
That and if he really wants money then he can just turn up at a convention for a signing. Those autographs aren't cheap: Nimoy's are $75 each, as an example. |

I love this. I'd like to see A) more quality superhero games B) silver age stuff. I was always big into silver age Flash and Sub-Mariner as a kid.
Rocksteady has done phenominal so far with Batman games. I'd love to see them tackle a Superman game, maybe they could actually do him some justice since no one else has seemed to *cough cough Superman 64*
What I loved about City too was the ability to play as Nightwing, Robin and Catwoman and they actually all felt somewhat different. They could very easily I think do a proper Justice League style game if they were given the right to do so.
I am curious though if Rocksteady will survive if they leave their element. Yes they make great Batman games, but they are super Batman fanboys... what happens if they're allowed to create their own IP? Will it be as good? |

I am absolutely stoked for more Batman by Rocksteady. I am 30 hrs into Arkham City, and it's great fun! Again, Rocksteady succeeded in making the port perfectly playable with kb/m. Great job, and I want MORE!  |

What was the DC version of 'What If?'? Was it Borderworlds? There were some great stories told with it involving 'The Bat'.
Elseworlds, I believe. |
