I never get picked for betas so why even bother?

Because there are those that do get picked? I know that's a hard conclusion to come to. It's just something you'll have to deal with.

Or will I?

You can have my LOTRO F2P-Beta if you want. Too busy with the game that my NDA requires I not mention with ominous, fantastical finality.

[Velhart]

I wouldn't mind trying it out, doubt I will play the retail version, but would be a neat experience.

I hate you... but my laptop can barely play any newer games as it is. I downloaded Alien Swarm on steam last night and had to turn all the settings to low to run it smoothly.

Laptops and PC games were never very good bedfellows, anyway. Sounds like it's time to hit up newegg, sir.

[Vigilous]

Just announced: Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamil will be supplying voices for Batman and Joker, respectively.

This game just got to a whole new level of awesome. Hopefully, they will get the rest of the DC Animated cast to do their characters.

I believe Octoberasian is in the process of building me a pc on newegg with a budget of 2,000 USD. I could do it myself
but I'm not exactly sure what the best of the best is or how to get the best hardware for the budget.

Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill are the best Batman and Joker voices ever.

[Vigilous]

Since Heath Ledger is dead, should WB and Chris Nolan ever decide to bring the Joker back, here's what they should go: get Doug Jones to play the body, and Hamil to supply the voice.

[Velhart]

They probably won't, Batman is not notorious for bringing a previous villain back into a next movie, it kind takes the spotlight from the central main villain.

Rumors are strongly saying The Riddler is the next villain in Batman 3.

[firefeng]

Needs more catwoman.

My recent visit to the nearest mall, where lithe, nubile women-girls of all sorts stalk with the most casual aplomb, is not affecting this post in the least.

[Varizen]

They've got 12 minutes of Heath Ledger footage left that will be in the next Batman. Basically Harlene Quinzelle (Harley Quinn), the Arkham Psychiatrist, comes to meet with The Joker, clicks with him, and busts him out. Then it moves on to the Riddler story.


Meanwhile:



Seems like it would be interesting as a stand alone.

[firefeng]

Awesome trailer, and I am also reminded of why Deadpool is more awesome than Deathstroke despite being a blatant, self-admitted ripoff.

[Vigilous]

So I decided to check up on this, and the cast list just got even more awesome:

Summer Glau: Supergirl
Michael Rosenbaum: The Flash**
Robert Patrick: Hawkman
Gina Torres: Wonder Woman
James Marsters: Lex Luthor/Brainiac*
Diedrich Bader: Solomon Grundy
Maria Canals-Barrera: Hawkgirl**
Powers Boothe: Gorilla Grodd**
Tony Todd: Darkseid
Jennifer Hale: Zatanna
Khary Payton: Cyborg**
Adam Baldwin: Superman*

* = Person voiced the character already in a direct-to-DVD movie
** = Person regularly supplied the voice in one of the DC Animated on-going series.

Bonus Trivia: Bader is apparently voicing Batman in "Batman: The Brave and the Bold." He also did the voice work for Zeta in "Batman Beyond" and the resulting spin off.

[Xairos]

I'm reviving this thread. Mostly because this is an awesome Character Creation system.

It's limited as it stands now, but i'm sure with expansions it will open up.

For a bit of a teaser to watch the entire thing: As a player you can be a archetypal role (Tank, Healer, CC'er) you also can "change stance" and become a DD.

To us who play XI (or any mmo for that matter), this means a great possibility for gameplay and solo-ability.
