I don't see a superman game really working unless they move him off earth early on. Send him to Warworld or Apokolips or whatever. Powering down superman is the lamest device. Power up his enemies instead.
This is a good idea. This also lets you get away with "accidentally" loving up like, the Armaghetto because who cares and who would notice the difference?

4-5 maybe, across Season of Infamy and the Batgirl one?

I'd say three to four hours of story stuff. An hour for A Matter Of Family, maybe a little more than a half hour each for the Season of Infamy sidequests.

With great payroll, comes great disappointment.
The obvious correct idea for a Superman game is remake Zone of the Enders, but skinned over.

They are making an Arkham HD Collection this summer. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-04-18-batman-arkham-hd-collection-revealed-via-leak Kind of weak that it won't include Origins.

We don't need to have that dialogue because it's obvious, trivial, and has already been had a thousand times.
Sounds like it's going to include all the exclusive content, though- I can finally do the Joker stuff in Asylum!

If they touch up the gameplay at all, particularly in the first game , I'll probably pick it up. I would love to be able to do blade takedowns.

Considering that this is in all likelihood just the PC versions ported to the consoles with no meaningful changes there would be literally no reason to sell it on the PC.

The DLC Batmobiles are great until you need to fire a power winch. I don't understand why they couldn't at least do that. Does the Two Face bank robbery mission chain end with going straight from the bank into the car normally? It skipped when I would expect Batman to be putting and taking Two Face out of the 1989 Batmobile.

edit:
They should go all out with the HD remakes of the first two and have Adam West come in to read all of Batman's lines. Playing with that option would be hilarious.

It's the only actual boss fight in the game, but it's still an Arkham series boss fight complete with 100 minions.

Humans disgust me. Vile creatures.
I feel like there was a real lost opportunity in not releasing a Joker skin DLC pack. I would have definitely paid a couple of bucks to play as Bale Batman haunted by Heath Ledger. Cesar Romero and Jack Nicholson would have been fun too.

Related question, anyone modding the game on PC? Is that possible?

There's been a ton of skin mods on PC but it's mainly swapping with ones already in the game, playing as Alfred and stuff like that. There's also mods to play as the other unique playable characters in the campaign but those are all I've heard about.

Looking through the WB forum, but there are entirely too many people convinced that it means something else, the Joker birthday thing wasn't it, and are still looking for the whatever the TRUE MEANING is, even though RS has come out and said there are no more secrets shut up already.

Depends on the remaster I suppose. For some, yes. This one however is being ported over to the 4 engine as well. So everything is updated.

Maybe I'm just a cynical rear end, but most of these collections and ports are mostly the same game with no changes running on the new system.

I'm just surprised that this seems to have some effort put into it.
