Arguably the biggest reveal of the night for the Spike VGAs was Batman: Arkham Asylum 2, or whatever they’re calling the follow-up — a specific name wasn’t exactly given. Anyway, we pretty much knew this was going to happen, but an announcement so soon? I never saw it coming.
In the trailer, we get a look at a much thinner, flat-out gross-looking Joker. I know he took a beating in the last game, but damn! We’re told “Arkham Asylum has moved,” which I’m still trying to figure out for myself.
When the asylum’s gate is shown in a wide shot, it looks out of place; almost like the island has been moved or something crazy. The more sensible conclusion would be that the fight with the inmates has moved into the city, which is probably the case from the looks of the carnival backdrop.
