Batman 2 already? I just bought the game 4 months ago. I thought L4D had a short turn around by releasing L4D2 364 days after the first.

When is E3, June or July? At least Mass Effect 2 is in January, and not in the rush of games that comes in fall.

2010 will no doubt be huge. Batman 2, Gears of War 3, Halo: Reach.

Arkham Asylum was the best game I've played in 2009. Can't wait for this sequel.

It's just a teaser, my guess is we don't see it till 2011. E3 in June I bet they show gameplay footage, but my prediction would be that it isn't even playable then.

I know the title is Arkham 2, but from what I saw it looks like they are on the streets of Gotham. If they make #2 where you can fully roam and play in Gotham city I will be so excited. I really really hope so!

Grand Turismo 5, Heavy Rain, God of War 3, Dante's Inferno, RED DEAD REDEMPTION!!!!!1111!!!

The first four months of the year are going to be great.

I liked the first game, but would really hope they would focus on another villan over the Joker.

The Joker at the end of the trailer looks interesting.

I don't. The Joker is awesome, he embodies what a super villain is. I hope they have more villains in the game which you can fight though. 10 boss battles would be saweeeeet.

Looking at the "We Want You" billboard that shows up on the website: http://arkhamhasmoved.com/us/, I'd guess that Two Face is going to have a big role in the sequel.

Based off of clues in the trailer you can pretty much pencil in The Penguin, The Black Mask, and Two Face as villains in the game. The way arkhamhasmoved.com is setup gives the impression that Two Face might be the main villian this time around. Joker is in the trailer but he's also on IV so he could just be the mastermind but Two Face does all the work.

I also just found out that there's three different ending videos to Arkham Asylum with three different villians in them so they could be making an appearance again as well.

The game isn't called Arkham Asylum 2, that's just what people are calling it for lack of a better name at the moment. No title was displayed. Also, highly unlikely it comes out next year, a 2011 release is more likely.

Gears of War 3 isn't coming next year either, at least according to the developers.

I didn't know there were different endings. I just got one with Croc.

I got the one with Scarecrow. Then there's another one with Bane. I didn't know until I came across an article about which characters will likely be in the next one and they mentioned that there's three different videos of the ending with different villians.

I hope it is not like that. What I don't want is another open world game like GTA or Infamous.

I don't like walking around in huge open worlds trying to figure out where to go.

I kinda wondered about that part ... I had scarecrow ... didn't make a ton of sense. Croc does. Bane does. Scarecrow not as much.

Geoff Keighley tweeted asking if anyone noticed any of the villian reveals in the trailer So Two face, Penguin or Mr freeze (Could be either or with the Iceberg Club), and Black Mask are pretty much confirmed

Also supposedly Catwoman, the Mad Hatter and some massive transforming person/thingie (Shadow thief?) are in the game as enemies

geoff Keighley just Twitted this message about 2 hours ago:

"There’s at least two others that haven’t been identified yet."

The fourth villain Keighley may have been referring to could be Catwoman.

Agreed. I found open world fun at first, but wasting time walking between missions really gets to me after a while.

I thought it was alright in AC2, but it comes across as tedious in many games.
