Could someone help me analyze the skins ?

The only one I could recognize is the first from the Infinite Earth Skins. It's obviously the Earth Two skins. What about the others ?

@russcovito:

Millenium skins:

-Original 1930s (Purple Glove) Batman

-Red Son Batman

-'Noel' Batman

-New 52 Batman (I think)

-'Blackest Night' Batman

-And I think the Robin Costume is Tim Drake's all red costume from the comics

Infinite Earths:

-New 52 Earth 2 Batman

-Killing Joke/Long Halloween/Dark Victory Batman

-The Current New 52 Earth 2 Batman (He's not Bruce Wayne. My theory is that he's Jason Todd)

-'Thrillkiller' Batman (I think)

-'Dark Knight of the Round table' Batman

-And that last Robin costume is supposed to look like Dick Grayson's old costume (again, I think)

Was I the only one hoping for an insider skin? I mean it wasn't even one of his better outfits but most of the outfits in that whole return of Bruce Wayne/the road home story arcs stuck with me.

Wonder if that means Robin is Dick in Tim's costume (since this is supposed to occur during Batman's earlier days, plus Tim was wearing Dick's animated costume in AC), or if Robin is Tim (which would be weird to me considering the timeline).

I'm not really one for skins in these types of games, mainly because they aren't used in story mode. Now fighting games or multiplayer they make more sense.

@jamdamage: They will probably release an Arkham City pack with all the costumes from that. All though in the beta for the multiplayer I believe it's one of the suits you can unlock.

Orrr ...you could do what I plan to do. Wait a couple months for the game-of-the-year edition that will have ALL this on the disc and at a lower initial cost. I got fed up after ARKHAM CITY had their DLC version released a few months later. I really want to play this, but I can wait.

I, for one, do not think this season pass or day one dlc crap is okay. It's bad enough that the games themselves cost $60. I'm not paying them an extra $20 to put the content the ripped out of it back in.

I feel like people who say this don't understand how DLC works. Yes, you have the locked on the disc nonsense that Capcom adores but most of the time, DLC is created after the main game has finished production. It just so happens that you'll see DLC campaigns & whatnot around the time the game hits store shelves because the process for getting a game pressed/shipped takes quite a while; releasing DLC on an online store takes a shorter amount of time.

Also, if we didn't have DLC, we'd probably never see that content in the first place. (Costumes are another story. That's basically a glorified skin, if you want to pay for that stuff, feel free but no thank you.)

Story mode content takes a long time to produce. When I see DLC being put out long after a game is being made (such as Valve often does) I'll believe it's not just ripping content out to rip us off. But when there's day one DLC, this is most assuredly content that would have already been there. It's not like hidden missions and unlockable costumes were uncommon before the days of DLC.

14+ skins for Batman to chose from so sweet, I hope they will also add in Batman-Year One, for this is still Batman during his earlier years.

Well I'm buying. I could wait for the GOTY edition for it but doesn't all the money go to the studio. More and more money is being shelled in making the game as we who buy it and those other of us who buy the DLCs continue to provide them the revenue to do so. It's like movies sadly, even if you are great film (game) and receive critical acclaim if you don't shell out a profit and a good audience turn-out then companies won't invest in you nomatter how great you are. Least we forget the victims to such tragedy (Young Justice show, etc). If anything I want the Drake costumes (which I think it's Dick Grayson robin and just Tim's costumes cause let's face it Dick had like 1 costume in his time as robin and I don't think we wanna see that on an HD tv unless you count his new52 version) and Adam West Batman which is a dream for me to play in. Too bad didn't bring West in to record the vocals for the story mode play in his costume. That would be the most awesome thing ever. ps I hope the Red Robin costume is the pre52 modified version Tim wore before the reboot and hopefully it isn't as bulky as it was in Arkham City cause that was a big no for me.

You see Netherrealm? This is how you do season passes. The DLC on here is already better than what we got for Arkham City.

Netherrealm are the Mortal Kombat/Injustice developers. Rocksteady developed the previous Arkham games.

Obviously they are but they are aware of each other. Why do you think use character modelss from each other (Arkham Origins has an Injustice Deathstroke alt)? At least Rocksteady isn't hiding thing that would piss people off. More people wanted the Martian and Zatanna rather than Batgirl and Scorpion.

Where's the bat nips? I want a shiny Clooney skin. How about a Micheal Keaton skin(I'm serious). I can't tell half the skins here. Why can't they make a Red Rain skin. Adam West is a cool idea but that would be the last skin I'd like to see happen. Where's Zur En Arrh skin. Brightest day skin? Seriously? I love Mike Mignola and Gotham by gaslight skin is a great idea. First appearance batman skin looks great. Knightfall (finally) but I don't see anything here that would make me pay 20$. I know 6/10 skins from this pack and I'm not even sure if I like them. I wasn't even excited for this game till I heard about the Knightfall skin from a friend. I don't know anything about the game. I think it's cause Arkham City was too awesome and I'm satisfied with "The" Batman game of my fantasies. I think I'm gonna buy the game of the year edition. I think they're marketing strategies suck. If they really want to sell this season pass they should put something diverse that everyone can relate to. Excuse me I'm a huge batman fan but doesn't mean I know every thing that's going on in the DC universe and not everything excites me like a brightest day skin. Are you kidding me? So I wouldn't buy this pack. Those skins should be like a nod from the designer or wtv to the fans in the like a separate pack. Put the main demand first or what would be a familiar skin that people would actually want. Is there a Ben Affleck Batman in there? I'm not even sure anymore.

@darkknightdetective: That's your choice, I've bought visual things myself just getting tired of the 200 skins for the same character kinda thing. Who plays the story that many times to get their worth out of the skins?

Kinda shocked we're even getting a ThrillKiller suit. I mean, how many people were demanding that one? I thought I was only a handful of people who even owned a copy of that. And the most memorable thing about it sure wasn't Batman's suit.

I'd kill for a Movie Skin Pack. Just give me B89, BR, BB, and TDK/TDKR skins...and they can have alls my monies.
