I am, it's one of those ones which will be fun but stupidly short. What also confuses me is how they've got all the major characters but it's based on the 60's show where hardly any of them appeared. Weird.
Good thing is though we got two Batman games to look forward to int he space of a year as Bioware, the people behind Star Wars: Knights of The Old Republic are working on a game to The Dark Knight.

Is that game going to be an RPG ala' KOTOR? And what platforms is it coming out on? Getting back to your first point, most Batman villains were in the old 60's show. I don't know which ones for sure but I know Joker, Catwoman, Riddiler, Mr Freeze and Mad Hatter all turned up from time to time. Bane and Harley Quinn are both fairly recent additions and were created around 30 years since the show was on so they can be forgiven for not making an appearance. Also remember that the 60's kids show was itself based on the old comics to it works for me. One villain who obviously was in the 60's show and will also be in this game is none other than... The Penguin! I forgot to add him in my last post....shows what a crap enemy he is.

Haha The Pengiun, who even wants that guy in the game?
I have no idea about TDK game. All I know is that it was announced. It's good to know that they've got someone decent in charge to do the production.

I just read about the Batman game I think you are talking about and it's going to be a MMORPG (that's Massive Multi-player Online Role Playing Game for the non-geeks out there).
It's seems that it will be like your typical Online RPG game, but with you playing as a superhero, doing various tasks for random people, or DC comic characters. The article also read that you will be giving choices for your powers such as running super fast, shooting lasers out of your eyes or the power of flight. Interestingly, like Star Wars KotOR you will be able to play the hero, or play as a super-villain (so villain then).
Unfortunately you won't be able to play as any DC characters, but they will be making cameos in the game. So far confirmed characters are Batman, Robin, Joker and Harley Quinn.
I think this could be a pretty cool game and providing everybody has different super-powers could make for some very interesting fights with other online users, or maybe you could all team up ala' X-Men which would be even better.
Shotgun not the 'Evil reflection' super power that Nikki from Heroes has...

That's DC universe online, a completely different game lol.
As for the the TDK game, it's now changed hands to Pandemic and they no longer doing a movie game. It's called Arkham Asylum and is going to play very much like Bioshock apparently, which I am interested to see how it will work. Game Informer in the states has a huge issue coming out on the 18th all about it. All I know is that it will take place in Nolan's Batman "universe"

Ah, I read about the game you referred to now. Doesn't seem to be too much about it though. It's going to be an expensive few months for DC fans as the DC vs Mortal Kombat game has to be out soon too. Anyway Lego Batman is out, though not over here yet and 2 more characters have been confirmed. One is Ra's Al Ghul, though I haven't seen any screenshots of him yet and the 2nd is the awsome Hush. The game hasn't got great reviews, but I'll buy it when I get some cash.
