You guys are being too closed minded. Look how great of a job they did with just about EVERY aspect of AA. I think that the same team will find a decent way of fitting the batmobile in the game without making it feel cheap or tacked on just for the sake of having it in the game.

As long as the second game feels as much like a stealth version of a metriod style game in the batman universe I'll be plenty happy. It was also one of the top games this gen for me as well.

Please devs take note and make more action games like AA!!!

i dont see how they're going to do it, they have a few options, one being a typical GTA style driving from point A to B sort of thing, they could go for the borderlands/brutal legend aproach where it's pretty much JUST for getting around and is the only working, drivable vehicle in the game, or they can go for the designated batmobile levels, where it's an almost on-rails afair. either one of those sounds like ass tho. i'd rather it just not be there. i'd rather you just use the rooftops to zipline around a relatively small scale city. if they need the batmobile then imo, the city is already too big.

I also remember you saying the stealth gameplay would be too automatic for the first game. I think I'll wait and see what Rocksteady has up its very talented sleeves.

it was INCREDIBLE automated, but it didnt have as big an effect on the game as i thought. it was why i was apprehensive about buying AA in the first place. glad i did tho, wasnt my GOTY or anything, but it was a very good game.

the whole batmobile thing and everything that comes with it (larger world) can go so wrong in so many different ways tho, i'm not sure if even rocksteady are up for the challenge. and i'd honestly rather they didnt bother. if the batmobile is in there in any form, i'd rather it just be a cinematic transition from one area to the other. no control at all.

But it's not impossible to do it right, and Rocksteady deserves a bit of trust after the first game. Well, that's what I believe anyway.

Got to agree, i think a batmobile section would be brilliant, and have total faith Rocksteady will come through, you only have to read the GI article to know that all additions are being incredibly well thought through by Rocksteady and only make the cut if they feel it makes the game a richer and better experience.

If the inclusion of the batmobile is pretty much confirmed, then I might as well spend my energy anticipating it being implemented in stellar fashion ala everything else in Arkham Asylum instead of complaining why it shouldn't be in the game.
