Trailers: Batman: Arkham City - Joker Trailer

[Kenjitsuka]

Awww yeah, this is a Do-want if I ever saw one!
^^

 

[Shakomaru]

Woo! Tara Strong sounds awesome! And Please Hammer, don't hurt him!

 

[Tireseas_v1legacy]

The greatest part of this? We know Joker's not the big bad of this game. More likely than not, he's in the same place two-face and the Penguin are at: one of the local bosses that also have an interest in the puppet master of this city.

And Batman? He's the icing on the cake for them...

So at first I thought Joker just got some weird redesign, but then Harley said "You know Mr.J is sick"
Whats jokers illness in this game?

 

[shadyh8er]

Harley's voice was the thing that was worrying me about this game.

Yeah same here.

OT: As I was watching this, there was a small part of me that felt like saying "so when is this movie coming out?"

*looks over at wallet*

Me: *sigh* Sorry pal, it looks like you'll be going hungry again...

 

[Little2Raph]

Can't sleep. . .clown'll eat me. Can't sleep. . .clown'll eat me. . .

 

[Daystar Clarion]

You know, if I didn't already know that Harley had a different voice actor, I would have never noticed.

 

[theashigaru]

This game had me when I found out that the voice for Harley Quinn is the same as Twilight Sparkle.

 

[Ohlookit'sMatty]

Just take my money already! Also, speed up time by one month

[LobsterFeng]

Alas, Mark Hamille, the world will weep after this game because Joker is gone forever. Very sad indeed. Still, looks like he's going out with a bang.

Also, did Batman just...kill someone? Can you survive a fall from that height after being knocked unconscious?

In Arkham Asylum when you pulled someone over the edge from high lengths he put a rope on them so they wouldn't fall and die, maybe that's what happens here too.

OT: This and Portal 2 are the only games I'm getting this year, hopefully it pays off.

 

[gundamrx101]

Batman was never afraid of Bats -___- Nolan just added that in for lousy effect.

OT: I can't wait, it's on my to buy right away list

 

[Number-14]

*twitchtwitch* Stop showing me how awesome this game is!! I'm already broke on Assassin's Creed Revelation :'( .

*money with wings flies away toward the heaven sky*

 

[shogunblade]

I'm glad I have convinced myself I don't need HD remakes of games I own the majority of on PS2 to buy this and UMVC3.

Dammit, the Bat would never have been this popular to me as a little kid, why is he so awesome now?

Also: Does anyone know if the music for the trailer was custom or was it part of something else?

 

[Bob_Dobb]

Why By the time Batman comes out again I'm gonna be melting my brain all over the Saints Row 3 CD box! And laughing at Skyrim!

Don't anger the Skyrim fans you gun toting gangster or we will ... shout very loudly at you.

Also, they need a Dr.Rockso mini boss before fighting the Joker.

So at first I thought Joker just got some weird redesign, but then Harley said "You know Mr.J is sick"
Whats jokers illness in this game?

In Batman Arkham Asylume, he takes a major dose of a modified venom - a drug used by bane - to become a huge, 10 feet tall killing machine and try and kill Batman.

While Batman defeat him and the Joker return to his much less impressive frame... one can assume that he's under withdrawal from the drug or even just that his body is under 'shock' from the massive transformation that just occurred (and then reverted) in such a short time period.

Whats jokers illness in this game?

Side effects from a combination of using the Titan serum and a subsequent beat down from Batman in the first game.

You know, if I didn't already know that Harley had a different voice actor, I would have never noticed.

I didn't know they had changed voice actors and I couldn't tell at all. Must this game look so awesome. I want it now! Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme!

 

[SnakeoilSage]

Whether playing him for laughs or for scares, Mark Hamill was, is, and will always be the best Joker in my humble opinion.

When I hear the joker in my head it is ALWAYS Mark Hamill that I hear.

Of course! Even Heath Ledger (God rest him) kept his Joker to a single note. It was creepy, scary at times, but it was always played to menace people.

Hamill's Joker could be both comically funny and s***-your-pants scary: he seemed to have a laugh for every mood the Joker was in. And he could drag the laughter out from a quiet giggle all the way to a full-throated cackle without taking a breath. Whenever you read the comics and you see the Joker surrounded by "HA HA HA" text, you just know he's laughing the way Hamill does

It's sad to see Hamill stepping down, but you have to admit you can hear his voice starting to struggle with the effort of a full-throated laugh. He can't pull it off the way he could in the 90's.

Still, he's like the Fred Murcury of insane laughter.
