 Hey guys, welcome back to Comic Gettin. Right now I'm going to talk to you guys a little bit about Telltale Games Batman. I bought it for my wife for Christmas this year. She's been one and she loves the Telltale Games series. She's already played season one and season two of The Walking Dead. Her favorite is The Wolf Among Us. She really liked this one. Something she liked was Good Storyline, the portrayal of Harvey Dent and Two-Face, and the appearance of John Doe, the Joker, before he actually becomes the Joker. This likes, she felt that they should have spent more time on Bruce Lane being in Arkham. For those of you who don't know, who haven't played yet, this is going to be a spoiler-ific review. The synopsis of the story is the children of Arkham, new villains in the Batman mythos, are attacking Gotham City. This probably takes place in year two of Batman. It's early on in his career. I wouldn't necessarily say it was year one. There are some aspects that kind of seem like it might be, but I honestly think it's more year two back. Children of Arkham and Lady Arkham, who are the main villains, you got Oswald Cobblepot, the penguin, who he's not portrayed in the life that he usually is engaged in. He's not the short fat guy. He's actually tall skinny. He wears a penguin mask, but the way they did it, the way they portrayed him was very good. He and Bruce Wayne grew up together. The Waynes bought the land for Wayne Tower from the Cobblepot. Oswald had misfit youth. He was in trouble all the time as a child. He comes back to Gotham, warns Bruce that there is going to be a reckoning, starts framing the Waynes and all that. It's revealed that Thomas Wayne actually worked with Carmine Falcone and Mayor Hill to control Gotham while they were alive, and Mayor Hill actually had the Waynes killed. There's a Mayor Hill in the game. Mayor Hill dies. Carmine Falcone gets killed by Renee Montoya, who's been drugged. He's in a hospital bed, and Lady Arkham has drugged Renee Montoya into taking away all inhibition where she feels like she can do anything guilt-free without any consequences at all. So she shoots Carmine Falcone in the head as Bruce Wayne is talking to him. It's revealed that Thomas Wayne had Oswald Cobblepot's mother institutionalized in Arkham. Thomas Wayne was the head of Arkham Asylum at one point. Thomas Wayne in the game. This takes place outside of the standard DC universe. Vicki Vale is in it. It turns out that Vicki Vale is the main villain of the game. She is Lady Arkham. It's revealed. Her parents were Arkham's. They were the Arkham's who Thomas Wayne had killed, and she was adopted by the Vales, who would lock her up in a basement below the basement, in a secret room under the basement, with chains, and they would beat her with the belt and everything. I mean, it was very gruesome. She kind of had once revenge on the entire city. So she puts in this elaborate thing where she reveals everything about the Wayne. Gets Bruce fired as CEO of Wayne Enterprises. Oswald Cobblepot is voted in as CEO. She kills her foster father and her foster mother, beats him with his belt, chains him up, and then hangs him with his own belt. The bat signal is invented in the game because Commissioner Gordon is like, well, if you give me a phone number to reach at, I wouldn't have to use these measures. Great game. I didn't like the fact that they made Vicki Vale the main villain, but how they did it, how they reasoned it, was very believable. In the game, also, Lucius Fox is depicted in the same way as the Batman begins movies. He does know Bruce Wayne as Batman. The Batmobile. The Batmobile. They depicted it awesomely. Bruce Wayne drives the same car, no matter if he's Bruce Wayne or Batman. And the way they depicted it was the Batmobile can actually fold in the jet engine and the bat wings and stuff and then change color from black to red. So it can become a regular car for Bruce Wayne to drive around and then while he's out and about, if he needs to become Batman real quick, he just presses a button. Camouflage mode turns off. The back opens up to show the bat wings and the jet engine and all that. It's portrayed really cool. Telltale gave it a great job with this game. I highly recommend it. I watched my wife play the entire thing. I may go home this weekend and play it myself. It is one of those choose-your-own-adventure type games become the Batman that you want to be. I highly recommend it. Stay tuned for John's toy review and Doctor Who Christmas Special Return of Doctor Mysterio. Right here on Come Again.
