HELL YEZZZ! now all we need is our batgirl campaigns, and the one that everyone wants the most. The Alfrid campaign. He'll clean up the streets of gotham, as well as makinga witty joke :)
Dick Grayson
Character » Dick Grayson appears in 9430 issues.
As the first Robin, Dick Grayson was the most famous sidekick in comic book history. As he ventured forth on his own, he formed the Teen Titans and became their leader. When the boy became a man, he became the independent hero known as Nightwing.
Nightwing to be Fourth Playable 'Batman: Arkham City' Character [Updated]
Unless he's in the campaign or challenge mode, I don't care. I don't like DLC's as everything should be unlockables, not an entirely separate purchase. You pay $60 for a game as is, you shouldn't have to pay even more for content that should be included in your purchase.

Nightwing playable awesome but. I want to see Jason Todd (The Red Hood) as a playable character
I like the way you think.
@Or35ti: They confirmed a while ago that all pre-order exclusives will eventually be available to purchase digitally, so no worries!
All the OMGs, fist pumps, and general happy dances, I did them all after hearing these great news. It's a great day to be a Batman fan.
It's kinda hard to get excited for this when you DON'T HAVE XBOX LIVE AND CAN'T DOWNLOAD THIS SH*T!!!!
The ONLY way...that this game can be MORE excitin'...is if they take Tim Drake OUT...and put Jason Todd IN!!
THEN...I would KILL for this game.

i figured they would have to do something with dick grayson if they were gonna make tim drake a playable character...if only they had cassandra cain they would have everybody...or some sweet and brutal DLC Redhood missions
I love you man...you're in my freakin' mind. Cassandra Cain, and Jason Todd should be playable as well. I could SO do without Tim though.
I would love to see the enitre Bat Family in a Batman game. Maybe in a sequel :) Batman shouldn't be alone in his fight against crime. You could choose who you wanted to be for the campaign and everyone would be unique combat-wise.

i like tim drake so im glad to see him. my favorite robin...cause dick grayson is my favorite nightwing.....it would just be cool if they did everybody because bruce is a well rounded hero..has the detective skills, fighting skills, acrobatics..etc...Dick Grayson wasnt as great of a detective as bruce, but made up for it with his advanced acrobatics, tim is as good if not better than bruce at being a detective..still young but perhaps someday be better.....cassandra cain is a way more advanced fighter then bruce, being a trained assassin, but also does not have the detective skills as bruce does....so with that being said they could make missions with those characters revolve around what they succeed at..if that was ever the case
@Grand Marvelous: Hahaa...

No offense but, in your explanation of the characters...Tim would then be useless. According to you, Batman and Tim are almost equals in detective skills. So why play as Tim when Batman's a better fighter with the same detective skills?
I know a lot of people know that I dislike Tim "Bitch-made" Drake...and THIS is why. More often than not, he becomes useless. He's basically just a detective with BASIC everything. Fighting skills are the worst in the Bat-family. Agility and acrobatics are the worst as well. Gadget use, and strategy plan are ALSO the worst. I don't care for his more in dept character story...because I don't want to get to know more about a useless character.
To me he sucks, to others he may not. But I was almost not goin' to get this game because he was in it. Because there are MORE deservin' characters that belong like Cassandra Cain, and Jason Todd.
Sorry...

When you play as these alternate characters, do they fight the same as Bruce? Or do they get their own moves?
they get their own moves and gadgets

I would strongly disagree about Tim having the worst fighting skills, but i can respect that you don't like Tim even though i don't understand or agree with it.
I actually agree with him that Tim's skills are the worst in the Bat Family unless you count Damian & Steph Brown.I would rather play as Tim than Jason Todd though. Talk about a terrible character.I would strongly disagree about Tim having the worst fighting skills, but i can respect that you don't like Tim even though i don't understand or agree with it.

yeah, i count damian and steph. i also want to say that he outclasses Huntress but i haven't read anywhere near enough of her to say something that bold
i actually like Jason but Tim's my favorite
Yea, Huntress sucks LOL. I don't like Jason Todd at all but either way for this game I don't think he'd make sense as playable because he hasn't been a hero really since he was Robin.@Grand Marvelous said:

What I like with this kinda news is the nerd rage going on in the threads that follow it.
Always an hilarious read :P
lol.

@Eyz: Speaking of alt costumes I kinda want all of the Batman ones. I bet that won't be cheap.
I'll wait and see.
I live miiiiiiiles away, in the middle of Europe, so no pre-order bonuses here. I hope some if not most of the DLC will come with a special edition... Maybe..
I'd have prefered Bane especially since we already know he's got an active and working build in the game, but Nightwing's cool as well.
@Eyz
Do you really not have any pre-order bonuses? Because i'm in the UK and even we're getting some pre-order bonuses.
This is great news. Nightwing is one of my favorite top 5 characters. Hopefully they'll add playable Huntress, Batgirl & Red Hood.
as a Tim Drake/Robin enthusiast, i pre ordered at best buy during SDCC, and im not looking back. But its still a little painful to see other places get other skins i really want. I imagine gamestop willl eventually make theirs available to powerup Rewards members on their websit... well, i really hope they do. I want that Batman TAS skin!
