Who Should Be The Main Villain? Was The Release Date Hidden In The First Arkham Asylum Game?

So lately there has been an uproar in the community about the main villain for Arkham Asylum 2. A lot of people (and I mean A LOT) want Joker to be a side villain in the new game and not the main bad guy. Most fans are looking to Two Face to steal the show this time around. However, wouldn't it just feel...wrong to have Joker on the sidelines? Isn't he Batman's greatest enemy? Don't get me wrong, I would love to see Two Face take a big lead in the new game, but I also want my fill of Joker!




There's also an outcry for other playable characters and for the bat mobile to be included. Now, we all know Arkham Asylum 1 was a great game. So I ask you, would the inclusion of a possibly thrown together mission involving the Batmobile really help things? Also would taking the focus off of Batman and placing it on say Catwoman make the game better?



Just So You Know The Catwoman Game Was bad.


Probably not.

Of course I have plenty of faith in rocksteady and their ability to innovate, but I'm not sure if either of those feats can be pulled off without feeling like them trying too hard.

Hopefully Rocksteady does not try to force too much into the new game. We all enjoyed Arkham Asylum for what it was: An Awesome
Batman Game!

In other news, a member on the Gamefaqs message board has discovered an interesting piece of information in Arkham Asylum 1 that may allude to a release date for Arkham Asylum 2. Here's his post:

Well maybe I am the only who actually paid attention to this maybe important part of AA1.ICEBERG LOUNGEGotham CItyOswald Chesterfield Cobblepot (There is a huge pic of penguin besides this text)opening nightFri SatJuly 13th July 14thOk so this is basicly whats on the poster in the little office (which you can crawl in) at the Intensive treatment building in AA1. (go see it yourself if you want)This poster might hold a secret message for all of us that we didnt get perhaps.Think about it. You can see the IcebergLounge in the new Batman: Arkham Asylum 2 trailer.So this might have been a reference to the sequel all along.Not only that.... It kinda confirms that Penguin will be in this game. And...If you actually see the words on this poster in another way then it might give us the release dates for U.S.A and EU? "Opening night"... Well the way i see it they could have also meant the "Release day" with that phrase.And they give us Friday the 13th of July and the 14th of July. So that means the 2 release dates of USA and EU?Perhaps..... but this is all theory and ofcourse this doesn't really proof or confirm anything. But I believe I might be right on this one. Maybe it was indeed an secret hint to the sequel.What you guys think of it????

This leads to a few theories about whether the release date is actually in the summer or in the fall.
