Telltale Games' Batman Game Steps Out of the Shadows

I've enjoyed Borderlands but it's not up there with The Walking Dead Season 1 or even The Wolf Among Us. Telltale is definitely working on too much and taking on too many properties. The Batman universe it always ripe for new,great stories but with so many other games also on its plate, I don't see how this can end well for Telltale.

I actually thought Borderlands was their best work yet. That said GOT was a disappointment and Minecraft sounds awful. This could be pretty cool if done right. It's going to sale very well regardless...

I've lost faith in TellTales. I won't be picking up any future titles.

Have you every played batman arkham and thought "gee I like this game but I could really do without all this combat, and gameplay". Then we have the game for you!

I kid I kid I really enjoyed walking dead S1, and wolf among us.

So now they're doing both marvel and DC? Awesome!!!

Batman can certainly work a lot better than Minecraft, that's for sure. Telltale seem to have lost their reputable track record.

This could actually be superb if done right, based more on Barman being the world's greatest detective!

I have yet to play a TellTales games and not love it (Game of Thrones included).

I haven't played Minecraft Story, though, and despite my love for the company, I never will.

Can't wait for this!

Until now for me the best game of them was The Wolf Among Us...
But I dunno if I will buy another after what I've seen from Game of Thrones, the time between the launch of the last episode and the one before was atrocious...

I like Batman and I like TT games so consider me interested.

I was hoping for another The Wolf Among Us but sadly no news on that. They were also meant to be working on a new original title but guess they forgot about that as they work on so many other series

I cant think of anything cooler than a Batman "game" where you get to watch Batman do stuff with next to no control over how to approach a situation!

The worst thing about the Arkham series was the fact you had to actually BE Batman, and lets face it, who wants that?

I don't know. In addition to the amount of properties they're working with, you think they could have picked someone other than Batman? I'm sure we all love Batman, but at this point even people who've never read comics know him like the back of their hand. It would be nice to see another superhero get his or her fun in the sun, and coupled with the Arkham games ending, it's probably time for the Caped Crusader to take a break from video games for the time being.

Telltales sure is busy today.

I've only really played GOT TT episode 1 and 2, I liked them they were interesting and quite good for when you want to sit back and play. But TT engine/ graphics are terrible... I'd be interested if it was more based on the detective side or other characters like in Gotham.

Interesting, I might be interested in it, but I'm not sure how it will pan out considering how stretched out Telltale is. I'm also not looking forward to seeing Telltale's dated engine's graphics with it. It's just pathetic for PS4 games.

I have enjoyed every single tell tale game. I loved game of thrones, for me its just as good as wolf and twd s2. Borderlands and the mighty twd s1 are my favourites, but there was a huge problem in game of thrones....

Your choices made no difference, bar 3 big ones.

Spoilers ### I played through various dialogue trees twice; the end of cotter - made no difference you still ended up with Sylvi thanking you. Snow In the flaying scene - no difference result is always the same. Fight in the wall with the punished whitehill - you always kill him no matter what. Some of the dialogue tree choices and the outcome from said choice made little sense when playing them through - as if choices were shoe horned in. The argumentative nature of conversations in tell tale games cover this short coming, but on closer inspection the illusion is gone. I was horrible to the hand maiden, every choice I purposefully picked the most nasty one. She still helped me get to the party and lied for me. Another negative is the games are all so slow paced, actually dropping to a crawl regularly in thrones. ### spoilers end

I really may just watch the series, and its a good entry point. The action qte sequences are dull, the puzzles are dull, however the story, setting, characters and sense of dread are well worth experiencing.
