1 - I agree...
But they are bringing out a Watchmen game. Also undesired for all the obvious reasons...

2 - Batman Begins wasn't great,
but it was decent enough that I actually finished it. I liked the 1 Sunsoft made for the NES the best out of all of them.

Batman Begins was terrific for a movie game (who remembers driving the Batmobile/Tank) and so was Hulk: Ultimate Destruction and Spiderman 2. The reason most movie games suck is if they're rushed to release the same day as the movie itself.

5 - If you don't want a dark knight game, it's simple
Just DON'T buy it instead of writing why it will suck and as long as they have a batmobile like the one in the batman begins game, a batpod, gliding and cool fighting then i'll buy it

6 - A great Batman game
I'll buy DAY ONE!!!! Hands down. I don't give a rats ass about any of this guy's reasons not to have a game for that incredible movie. As said above> bad movie vidgames are bad cuz they're usually rushed for movie launch. That will not be the case this time.

Gary Oldman already mentioned that there will be a game to G4, another top 5 (alright, 6) list made obsolete again.

We all remember that Dark Knight quote, from quote-master Alfred:
"They all scream that they need it. But they all whisper, 'no'."

How about not tie it into the movie at all?

I still dream of an open world Nolan-styled Batman game. But sadly I dont think there is a developer up to the task. Rockstar would be #1 on my list because after seeing Liberty City in GTA4, I think they could recreate Gotham City very well and they might be able to pull off a good story. But I dont think there is one studio that could do it on their own and I doubt you'd see high profile studio teaming up.

Hellz yeah. That's what I'm talking about. An open world Batman game would be awesome. Hire Frank Miller to write the story or something. It could be epic.

A batman dark knight game shouldnt happen .... AT the same release time than the movie .

It's quite simple only chances most movie adaptation got to be good or great , would be to be developped independantly from the release schedule of the movie . That's why goldeneye , Riddick and a very narrow selection of titles were good .

Studios dedicated themselves to retranscript well the experience , with much needed time and care ... unlike an iron man or hulk game getting released for the quick buck .
