Arkham Asylum 2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W73_hcyc6Dg)

Joker's back.

OoOo
Cant wait for more Riddler Riddles!...Thats sad that thats the first thing i think of...

Looks like Batman gave the Joker some Bat-Cancer!

Am I interpreting this correctly in that the game is going to take place outside in Gotham with Arkham Aslyum as the Joker's base of operations, or is Arkham Asylum just that huge? Or Arkham has gotten a lot bigger and encapsulated part of Gotham or something?

I'm pretty sure the entire plot of the game is to find his Bat Anti-Cancer Spray.

Then, as now, I look at this trailer and go, "Why, exactly, is it Arkham Asylum 2?" Can't it just be Batman: Gotham? Or Batman: Return of the Dark Boogaloo?

Because people who don't know video games as well need to be able to stand in the store and go "oh, they made a sequel to that Batman game that was so good."

Cause Batman isn't recognizable enough.

I mean I get what you're saying but gah I hate when developers do this.

Though I don't think that's the only explanation. I mean, we're treated to a faceful of gate reading "Arkham asylum". It's just that this gate and, most likely the wall is it located in encompasses not just an asylum, but several large buildings, most likely a city. More accurately, the kind of city you'd get if the joker played Sim City. So really, I'm not sure what's happening here. Unless Joker enacted a dastardly plot to have the asylum demolished and replaced with several city blocks.

The Joker looks like he was missing a few teeth there and Harley was wearing her nurse's outfit, so I assume it takes place right after Arkham Asylum.

...Oh. Actually if the Titan Formula made Joker all sick and dying would be great.

The tagline is "Arkham has moved". I think this is a play on words that the Joker simply took over a part of the City and filled with Arkham Inmates. So "Arkham has moved" outside.

On that note, "Arkham Asylum 2" is a fitting name.

That, alone, gives you some of the scenarions. You have the Streets, you have the old ruins of Arkham, the Swears, the bay that showed up in the ending of Arkham 1... i would bet this game makes you visit the Police Station too. So you'll probably have Killer Croc and Scarecrow back there... i'm Guessing Mr Freeze as a new Villain, and, an excuse for a Ice Level (probably Arkham Ruins)

I don't think they would use the "Joker dies" Gimmick in this game though, he is clearly very sick due to the side effects of his last fight with Batman and still recoverying.

To say Batman made Gotham a better place you pretty much have to assume that without him it'd be goddamn Roanapur.

I just took it from here.
