Poll: Arkham Asylum 2 Enemies

[Simriel]

I would love it if Arnold Schwarzenegger would play Mr.Freeze, just for his really shitty puns he made in the movie. Penguin or Two-face would be accepted as well

ICE to see you!

Stay Cool!

 

[Socius]

Killer Croc, Joker, Two face and maybe penguin
Ridler will be bragging over the contection line again
thats how it will be, watch the trailer

 

[Punisher A.J.]

Harley Quinn... A real right this time.

Or any other boss fight actually done right.

In the trailer, it looks to be in the city. It was said that the joker 'moved Arkham' making me think he released the inmates into a section of the city and walled it off as his new madhouse. (Joker is seen sitting in a chair with IV hooked up to him).

I'm half expecting the game to be influenced by No Man's Land, which is the only other Batman storyline that provides a completely videogame-y setting. I would absolutely sign up for a back-to-basics Batman graffiti-tagging areas of the city he's cleaned up after a major disaster, leading up to a climatic confrontation with The Joker.

Hopefully, if they go down that route it will be fully realized rather than looking at Batman Begin's closed off island for reference. We'll see.

The main problem here is navigation. AA was great because it made Batman deliberate. He walks slowly by default, he jumps to close ledges and glides, but doesn't swing. There is no playable Batmobile. If you try to amp that up to fit the whole city and you don't want to make it one hour to traverse from end to end, then you'd need a faster Batman, and that would send you into crappy superhero game territory.

Like I said, waiting and seeing, but my official answer is that my villain for the sequel must be Gotham City in the way Arkham Asylum was a character in the first game.

They should use The Dark Knight's soundtrack for it.

MrFreeze should be in it too, but not as the main enemy.

 

[SomeBritishDude]

Well, if we take a look at the analyse of the B:AA2 trailer, this one:
I think it's very likely that we see most of the enemies on that list.

Gametrailers did one of these too, noticed a couple of things these guys didn't and visa versa.

The Penguin is next in the pecking order (no pun intended) after the Joker.

Really?
I'll ask again, was the pun really unintended?

I doubt it somehow...

Really, I wouldn't brie that cheesey.

Obscure enemies are cool and all, but you need to have a focus. The Penguin is next in the pecking order (no pun intended) after the Joker. It is only fitting that it should be him. It shouldn't be Arkham Asylum 2 though. Arkham's been done. It should be the City.

Have you seen the trailer?

Also, if you're asking for an entire sandbox game you're entirely missing why the first game worked to begin with.

And The Penguin is lame-o. Two Face is next in the pecking order - Joker pushes Batman to his limits, and Two Face should be about bringing a more human (albeit twisted) counter-argument to Batman.

The first game tapped into Batman's history and character a little, but in this game I want to see him break ala The Dark Knight.

You have me wrong. I never asked for sandbox. I loved the first game for what it was. Free levels within a railroaded plot. Superb! I just didn't want it to be in the asylum again because that had been done. We needed a new setting.

I have seen the trailer but in all honesty, only today. However, it doesn't really point out what the main plot will be with any certainty and I really believe that there is a dark side to The Penguin that just needs some good writing.

It shouldn't be Arkham Asylum 2 though. Arkham's been done. It should be the City.

I think it will be, partially. Arkham has moved from the island to the mainland, I guess it'll be in the Narrows, like in Batman Begins. And the Narrows could be a very interesting staging ground.

I agree, The Narrows would be the perfect setting.

 

[Gestapo Hunter]

Black Mask baby!

 

[ThreeKneeNick]

All i wanna say is that Cat Woman and The Penguin are boring.

 

[ANImaniac89]

would love to see two face

 

[Mister Eff]

I'm not fussed on Villains, but I'd like to see Robin, Nightwing, Huntress etc make appearances myself.

 

[Sethzard]

Probably the Penguin I think the riddler might make the same kind of apperance, I doubt his boss fight would be any good.

OK, I just wasn't sure if by 'the city' you meant the entire city. The trailer shows the Asylum moved into a section of the city - to be honest, it looks pretty ramshackle and I'd imagine the Joker has something to do with the move (as opposed to it being official).

Harvey Dent's poster is seen in the trailer, as is the Penguin's nightclub, so we may both be right.

 

[The Fork of Truth]

Penguin, but he's all but confirmed by the Iceberg Lounge being in the trailer. Hopefully they'll get Paul Williams to do his voice.

 

[Maeshone]

Mr. Freeze, Two-Face and the Riddler would be awesome!

 

[Saarai-fan]

Clayface would be my pick. Penguin and Mr Freeze are ok for bosses, but Clayfaces abilities would make for an unique boss battle as far as I'm concerned.

 

[PurpleLeafRave]

I'd love to see clayface, maybe make him somebody you'd least expect using his shape shifting skills.

 

[VanityGirl]

Uhmm.. how 'bout no Arkham Asylum 2?
I don't want to revisit Arkham again, I'd rather tour around Gotham.

Arkham2 would just in my mind be kind of boring..

But, if you want another Batman game, my vote would go to Mr.Freeze

 

[an874]

I agree, I voted for Prometheus, although I don't know how you'd make Calender Man interesting. Also, I'd like to actually see the Riddler this time instead of having him as an annoying voice that goads you to find all his trophies.
