Yeah.. i like that they've focused on freedom, gadgets and stelth - with a touch of good action. And it looks great aswell, which dosen't hurt. Batman looks badass! The Joker however, looks to funny. I'd like him to look more trashed up and psyco.

Why so serious?

But war... war never changes

I just read the thread title again.

I think Red Faction Guerilla was a bigger surprise and that came out 2 months ago...

I won't be buying it for the Xbox 360 because they decided to sell me an incomplete game.

I wouldn't call a high budget action game with one of the most famous characters around a surprise jsut cause it turned out good.

A surprise would be a gmae like Splosion man

It was made by Rocksteady, which has 55 people and it hasn't done single this gens game.

And Eidos is not known for quality(Kane and lynch, Tomb Raider Underworld)

Its licenced game.

And not so big budget compared to games like Transformers and Spider Man.

I apologize if I sound rude but some people are waaaay to stuck up when it comes to videogames. To them it has to be 93 at metacritic to even look at that game.

Tomb Raider Underwold is a fun game and only people that are the biggest cherry pickers will find enough things wrong with it not to enjoy it.

I agree that most movie titles are crap but there are lots of good fun licensed games...

Wolverine was very fun, Wanted is a fun shooter...and those 2 came out this year.

I'm sorry but I'm really getting tired of the whole "game has to score 90+ to be good" attitude. I had more fun with some games scoring 65 then games scoring 95...

Do you people have personal tastes or do you play what reviewers tell you to play like zombies?

With that said, I think Batman is going to kick ass and possibly have that extra level of polish that most licensed games lack. So yes, I retract my statement...it is a surprise. But the game was announced a year ago and has been tlaked about since. It didn't really come out of nowhere like games such as Blazblue.

In terms of Tomb Raider well we were all spoiled by Uncharted

Not "all" of us were spoiled since Uncharted only sold 1m in US and 2.5WW.....granted Uncharted is a stellar game

Being in 2nd feels so much better than being in 3rd

Hmmm...

Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...
