They're a mixture between real and comic.. i like them. This looks really good for the most part, and good to see they're showing the actual console version.
Batmobile stuff i'm still not sold on...looks great driving through the city, but most combat with it looks standard flat area style shoot and dodge stuff...which can get boring pretty quickly. Could be worse...could all be on rails (ala infamous). Hand to hand combat though looks decent, and swapping between characters mid fight should keep things interesting - still a crime it's not co-op though.

Wait... you can switch characters?
not really. you can call robin and nightwing to do combo moves. but as far as i'm aware you never directly control them? they just fly in. kick a bit of ass in a context sensitive sort of way, then they fuck off again?
My biggest issue is this is next gen and the the paper on the ground is still static :/. I know this was a nvidia phys X effect and that entails a nice gfx card on a pc but you would think these things would have filtered threw in some way to next gen consoles. Leaves the game for me feeling a bit last gen.
ya'll see that shit? Awww man! Batman just unleashed a 58 hit combo, kicking everybody's ass! And now he kidnapped Poison Ivy to make love to her in his Bat cave. I want to be The Batman! .....and also DMX.

Actually, you can control the sidekick during fights and switch between Batman and the sidekick at any time. EuroGamer has an article that covers this and goes into more details on how it works:
"The AI takes care of whatever character you aren't controlling and generally tends to keep them on the other side of the battle from you, but as soon as they've joined the melee you can switch back and forth between them and Batman instantly. Any combos that you begin to build will carry over between characters, as will any special moves that you've built up."

Ugh….scratch that previous comment. The upcoming Game of Thrones video game is a F’in mobile phone game. Why can’t they came an open world GoT game, like Witcher 3 or God of War? (> 3 Months ago)

By FAR, the upcoming Game of Thrones King’s Road was the Game of the Show! It plays like God of War Ragnarok! :) (> 3 Months ago)
