[–]MrKain 534 points535 points ago

Do you even know how awesome this would be? Work your way up from a minor thug-for-hire, teaming up with most of Batman's rogues gallery, narrowly escaping the Bat throughout the story... Escalating into one of Batman's biggest foes...

Maybe taking down each of Batman's cohorts until the final showdown where you either break the Bat, or are taken down yourself?

Maybe be a huge component to the Asylum escape of Joker... Or competing for turf with Two-Face... Maybe even get put in Arkham Asylum yourself only to become part of a bigger plot?

All the while earning more skills to make yourself an even bigger name in the crime world of Gotham.

I was buy this over and over.

[–]MrKain 274 points275 points ago

Maybe have it start with a mission where you're working as one of Penguin's guys robbing the Gugenheim (i think that's the name) Museum, and you are the only one to escape...

Cut to Batman watching a video and pausing on you, but with your face facing away from camera. Bats can't ID you, and thus starts his hunt...

From there you do a mission avoiding police to get back to the Iceberg Lounge, where Penguin fires you for being "incompetent."

You team with Two-Face to get rid of Penguin from "your turf," getting your name out as the "New Guy" causing a turf war when half of Two-Face's guys start following you instead.

Following a huge fallout in which you escape but Two-Face gets busted by Nightwing, Nightwing gives info on you to Batman...

Batman interrogates Two-Face who gladly gives you up, but Bane catches on and helps you, in exchange for luring Batman into a trap where Bane "breaks" him.

In the fallout, you get put in Arkham after being caught by Nightwing and Batgirl. But this was all part of the plan to get you in and break Two-Face out... But it is STILL a true double-cross, as Two-Face leaves you behind when he escapes.

All through this, you're running side missions for Mr. Freeze and Poison Ivy, who are bettering their own goals but are teaching you valuable skills until you're locked away.

In Arkham, you fight Zsasz as he believes you're a menace to his cause. In the scuffle, the Red Hood breaks you, Zsasz, Hush, and Deadshot out proposing a war with Two-Face now that Batman is out of commission.

Hush tells Hood no, and asks you to come with him, saying that Hood is sill Batman's crony. have a choice to team with either... missions with either Hood and Talia Al Ghul, or Hush and Catwoman... But both angles end when Hush or Hood remove their mask to reveal that they were actually the Joker (the other then ridicules you for your stupidity and leads to a big shootout that gets interrupted by Bane).

The "big three" (Bane, Joker and Hush or Hood) then start vying for your help as apparently Batman has returned. As you build up an army on your own, the "big three" are shown in the news as being taken down themselves... By Batman and his team.

Catwoman or Talia turns on you during this time, stating that it was fun while it lasted, but going up against Batman on your own is insane.

This leads to a final countdown... Where one by one your character takes out Robin, Nightwing, Batgirl, and holds commissioner Gordon hostage while holding the city ransom.

Then the epic showdown begins.

[–]davaca 57 points58 points ago

Go break into rockstar HQ or something and install yourself as a writer.

[–]Cthulhus_Brother 112 points113 points ago

So, can you go and try to get a job working at Rocksteady or Rockstar now?

[–]A_wild_fusa_appeared 7 points8 points ago

This would be the single best open world game ever. As a gamer I approve MrKain's application to start immediately.

[–]AAAAAWWW_YYYEEEEAAAA 15 points16 points ago

Porque no las dos? They both start with Rock.

[–]MaidenMadness 30 points31 points ago

It's a great idea and all but since you're developing a story I hope you won't hold it against me if I point out one thing I find illogical in the story

From there you do a mission avoiding police to get back to the Iceberg Lounge, where Penguin fires you for being "incompetent."

You team with Two-Face to get rid of Penguin from "your turf," getting your name out as the "New Guy" causing a turf war when half of Two-Face's guys start following you instead.

Why would a big shot like Two Face team up with a nobody? Why would Bane go on helping a nobody? Why would Batman care about a nobody? Why would Batman let himself be trapped over a nobody? I think there needs to be some part where you build a name for yourself after Penguin fired you, but before you get to Two Face. Mafia perhaps?

EDIT: Aside from that as the other guys said it - go on and march into Rocksteady and tell them this idea.

[–]Hippopoptimus_Prime 19 points20 points ago

I also see a problem with Penguin "firing" you. He would probably just kill you instead.

[–]MaidenMadness 6 points7 points ago

Good point. I'd though about that as well and the conclusions I came to were that:

a) Cobblepot has no idea who you are, I very much doubt he hires every guy who comes to work for him. It is more probable that one of his right hand men hired you

b) you have to start from an assumption that your character isn't a complete and utter moron. He was a thug for hire that was hired to do the job, he didn't do it so if he comes back to Cobblepot's guys asking for payment he's gonna get killed. So it's logical he doesn't go back there, but rather moves on with his career.

[–]webslingga 2 points3 points ago

Penguin tries to kill you, and you have to escape. You weren't incompetent, you just double crossed Penguin and kept whatever he sent you to steal. This is why Two Face lets you into his gang, and bc he can use your inside knowledge of Penguin's gang to bring him down. What Twoface doens't realize is that you are also using him, setting him up so he takes the fall and is arrested by the police/Batman. You escape and are now in charge of both of their gangs. Batman comes after you but you now have the power and money to hire Bain, who takes out Batman. The Bat kids come after you and finally take you out, putting you in Arkham where you have to team up with the Joker to escape all the other pissed off inmates who you double crossed to get in.

[–]elbenji 9 points10 points ago

You start working for Falcone doing odd jobs until people start getting loyal to you for saving their backs from Batman or others and so you become both sympathetic and have a reason for them to go for you because you have the "people skills" so to speak.

[–]MrKain 2 points3 points ago

You had an in with Penguin, who knows what you knew about the inner workings... Two-face was a lawyer, he'd be sure to use an in.

As for Bane... If you gained enough influence to take over half of Two-face's army, I'm sure he'd be interest.

[–]Notewell 1 point2 points ago

Same way that you're "nobody" character in GTA teams up with infamous figures in the criminal underworld, by working their way up through the ranks.

[–]ShaneOfan 0 points1 point ago

What if you are Deadshot?

[–]MuffinatorXIII 8 points9 points ago

this thing need to get Kickstarted, like right now. this sounds amazing and i will buy it a thousand times

[–]MaidenMadness 9 points10 points ago

You'd need to raise shitloads of money because of ca$h it would take to acquire rights to use the names Batman, Two-Face... Without these names, you can still make the same game, but running away from Batman or running away from Fatman isn't the same thing. The selling point of the game would be it's premise fight the Batman, be the villain, not game mechanics (although some interesting things could be made with it. Think of Arkham Asylum/Arkham City sections where you are Batman and you're slowly picking off enemies one by one. Now imagine the exact same section, only you play as a thug and the goal is to survive). Without the right to use the name Batman, that selling point is gone as is the reason why the idea sounds interesting in the first place.

So a Kickstarted I feel wouldn't work. What MrKain needs to do is to pitch an idea to Rocksteady or someone else who has enough $$$ to get it made.

[–]MuffinatorXIII 2 points3 points ago

dammit man! i want this game! MKRAIN! NOW!
GODDAMMIT! pitch it! pitch it like you never pitched in you life!

[–]Nightwing11 6 points7 points ago

you forgot the minor date sim/hot coffee with catwoman

[–]IchLiebeLA 5 points6 points ago

When Rights are acquired, then you have my permission to develop.

[–]Drewlicious 3 points4 points ago

I think a system when you gain the most police attention there is an extra star when Batman comes after you.

[–]otherben 2 points3 points ago

Don't forget, even without the super-villians, Batman always had Gotham's various crime syndicates and mobster families to deal with. You could definitely fall in with one of these and work your way up from a lowly thug before joining with a super.

Edit: as elbenji said in another comment, you could start working odd jobs for Falcone, for example.

[–]bobjeffmarty 2 points3 points ago

Spoilers, dude.

[–]unicornon 2 points3 points ago

is this going to be taking place in the Nolan-verse, or one of the comics?

I'd prefer Nolan-verse, though I feel a more cartoon-y game would work just as well, and definitely allow for a lot more freedom with the story.

[–]DarthJordan 6 points7 points ago

I think the Arkham games-verse is the best. I like it because it takes a lot from the Nolan-verse (i.e. two face's look/realism in a comic world) while keeping it true to the comics with the supernatural vilians (i.e. Poison Ivy controlling plants with her mind and ra's al ghul and the lazarus pit).

[–]Lewy_H 0 points1 point ago

Did you happen to watch Batman today on TV? I can't remember what channel but the Penguin was robbing that museum of a shield of armor.

[–]SlapTheBacon 0 points1 point ago

You need to email this thread and your comment in perticular to rockstar. You're awesome

[–]Not-So_Random 1 point2 points ago

Epic.

[–]JackBauerSaidSo 0 points1 point ago

I imagine pissing on Gotham PD, but being terrified when the bat is on you at the "5 star/bat" level. Some ominous postprocessing and a little bit of gloom music.

Think Slender Game, except you get to work your ass off to escape each time he is coming at you. Way better than military, FIB or NOOSE

[–]LordDVanity 0 points1 point ago

[–]AradiaLoveless 0 points1 point ago

I approve of most of this...but I must know about my favorite character. Where is Harley Quinn in all this? Do I get to do side missions with her?

[–]Probably_immortal 0 points1 point ago

Here is a thought. What if the new guy was Bruce Wayne all along. Dun dun du .

[–]son_of_batman 0 points1 point ago

COOL IDEA MAN!

for expansion pack: right after the showdown, there was major earthquake in gotham.. you got hurt and unconscious for weeks (taken care by insert your allies here)

you wakes up: batman went missing.. all city in ruin, and realizes that you no longer control the city. the city was divided by territories: two-face controles the business district, poison ivy the central park equivalent, huntress on the north, GCPD controls downtown, penguin has the rich district , ventriloquist the poor district.. etc etc.. (you know, following the story from No Man's Land)

you got new map, new (ruined) city: broken bridges,big cracks on the roads, fallen towers.. ps: you need to hi-jack oracle network to have communication/ satelite maps. and you got new mission: to gain control the whole gotham, again

[–]Goldreaver 0 points1 point ago

I'd side with Red Hood so hard.

[–]SPF-109 13 points14 points ago

This would make such an amazing game; the idea being the underbelly of Gotham city and rising up the ranks from petty thug to criminal mastermind is incredible.

I can actually see a branching system as to what time of criminal you could be. Each branch having separate goals from the other.

  1. You could become a complete psychopath with no regard for human life and people will fear you and your unpredictability.

  2. You could rise up in organized crime (Maroni Crime Family, Falcone Crime Family, etc) and eventually become the mob boss with countless manpower at your disposal but you also have many enemies who would grab at your power.

  3. You could become a hired gun, (think Deadshot)) working for a wide variety of organizations, becoming a valuable asset in the criminal underworld.

  4. You are a terrorist (possibly League of Shadows) who wants nothing more than for Gotham city to fall; causing a cataclysm which divides the people of Gotham city as well as the city itself and ultimately bringing the city to ruin.

Political and authority figures can be bribed, gangs can be recruited, and people can be manipulated.

The only true threat you have late in the game is The Batman. He can be the only one to thwart your final goals. Each branch will have different views and confrontations with Batman and his allies.

Depending on the severity of your crimes and how powerful you become, Batman will either become adamant to taking you down or he will simply leave you to the police.

The idea of always having to watch your back for The Batman would make a great gameplay mechanic.

[–]Alice_Alive 4 points5 points ago

I don't play GTA games, but hoo boy would this be an exception! I love Batman, but getting to be your own villain would be fantastic! The only thing that I would want, though, is the option of character creation, which is not a GTA thing. But if I'm going to be a DC villain, I want to decide my own face, my own identity, and (after working up the ranks) my own costume.

The Batman universe is a great one. Who doesn't want to be a part of it?

[–]Ragozi 2 points3 points ago

I would throw money at this.

[–]distopiandoormatt 6 points7 points ago

where you either break the Bat, or are taken down yourself?

Break the bat?

[–]RabbitSong 1 point2 points ago

you need to incorporate The Bat

And here's a video. (Also, I'd apply the Wadsworth Constant +10% on this one if you're impatient.)

ahem... arkham city

[–]3141592652 32 points33 points ago

Yeah but in Arkham city you play as batman in gta Gotham you'd be the criminal not batman.

[–]terran1212 14 points15 points ago

I know redditors took this and made it about being a criminal but I'm pretty sure whoever came up with this game wanted you to be batman

[–]HighSorcerer 2 points3 points ago

Probably, but the GTA series has always been about being a criminal. It only makes sense that you'd be the bad guy, which let's face it, would be a fantastic new twist on a Batman game.

[–]pulseshift 0 points1 point ago

Gotham city imposters lets you play as a criminal

[–]otis91 20 points21 points ago

It's missing a key part of the cover - helicopter or some flying vehicle in the top left corner (in this case it could be The Bat from TDKR).

Otherwise, nice cover.

[–]tomatomartyr 16 points17 points ago

[–]I_FISTED_MY_GRANDMA 4 points5 points ago

Or a flying dildo. BATDO. IT'S A DILDO WITH WINGS. IT FIGHTS CRIME.

[–]ErezYehuda 0 points1 point ago

This was my very first reaction. They easily could have put in a... bat-copter? Or maybe one of the many scenes of a villain making his getaway on one.

[–]Platypus81 2 points3 points ago

Yep, looked for the helicopter and got unreasonably surly when it wasn't present. Attention to details is important. Even an "Allan please add helicopter" would have been better.

[–]vincentkun 1 point2 points ago

When you hit 6 stars its batman's turn to chase you, air, land and sea.

[–]Maxxonry 3 points4 points ago

That chase would be about a minute long, then Batman pulls you out of your vehicle (tanks included), kicks your ass, ties you up, and bat-grapples away.

[–]HighSorcerer 0 points1 point ago

Bonus: Batman never kills you.

[–]AgroNesis 6 points7 points ago

I don’t think you quite understand how hard I would play this game.

[–]ghastlyactions 5 points6 points ago

I would play this game until, after several weeks of mysterious absence, one of my friends found my partially mummified corpse.

I don't throw this around much, but this is the single greatest videa game idea I ever fucking heard of. THIS HAS TO HAPPEN.

I would fuck the play out of that game!

[–]basementboy 4 points5 points ago

This is the game that Gotham needs...

[–]Rosetti 2 points3 points ago

I get so angry when people make GTA parody covers, because it seems no one remembers to put a damn helicopter in the top left hand corner.

Come on!

[–]tbwright77 2 points3 points ago

Turns out the only reason why Batman's wanted by Gotham PD is because the batmobile accidentally nudged a police car.

[–]rube 7 points8 points ago

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7cmxZDl21I

When I first heard about Arkham City, I actually thought it was going to be a free roam Gotham City game, more along the lines of GTA (without the carjacking and whatnot of course). I thought the Arkham name in the title was just to keep it in the same series as Arkham Asylum.

I think that was part of my disappointment with the game. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it as much as I did Asylum. But I felt the "city" design was pretty weak. A fully realized Gotham game with the Arkham play mechanics would be fantastic.

I love this idea and I understand that in GTA your character is a criminal but imagine Batman Akrham Asylum but in an a huge open GTA world where you can chill out in the bat cave, drive the bat mobile around the city and bust up bad guys at night. Then during the day your Bruce Wayne doing what ever the fuck Bruce Wayne does.

Rockstar or Rocksteady, make this happen

[–]electricalnoise 0 points1 point ago

I would buy the FUCK out of this game.

[–]bondinferno 0 points1 point ago

This should be a real game, haha, no seriously, dude I'm fucking serious someone make this happen...now

[–]Sterculius 0 points1 point ago

I would play that game so hard.

Nolan's Gotham would work very well in GTA, comprising several islands and an underlying theme of escalation. It could be done brilliantly.

[–]Milhouse_is_a_meme 0 points1 point ago

I like the idea, being a thug, working your way to a proper Batman villain, but Gotham looks way too colourful.

Needs a few shades of grey thrown in.

This guy's gotta have some kind of special skills. Maybe he could be in an accident that gives him his own kind of super powers, rather than being like a super-powerful version of CJ?

GREAT IDEA. Could be the best GTA and best batman game all-in-one.

This comic was drawn by Bill Walko. He is an amazing artist and writer. Check out his website and give him some love. http://www.theherobiz.com/

Playing as a criminal in Gotham City? A literally unbeatable game. Eventually you'd have to fight Batman. Nobody would ever beat this game. Even if you hacked it to make it beatable, Batman would hack it back again.

Dear Rockstar Games,

This needs to exist. WTF is taking so long? Go.

Go batman! Knock down and shoot some pedestrians.

[–]zacshipley 1 point2 points ago

I'd happily play an open world Batman game with an art style like the animated series.

Aaaaaaaaannd I'm nursing a semi.

[–]TheGowans 1 point2 points ago

This game would be rendered unplayable based on that batman would always fuck your shit up

[–]MurfDog07 0 points1 point ago

Guys wait...

What if you were Bob?

It would be like an origin story of the Joker's right hand man!

[–]Jalytcorey 0 points1 point ago

I'll be waiting in my study...

[–]LordDVanity 0 points1 point ago

I would love to play this.

[–]mudduck454 0 points1 point ago

Well instead of GTA V, It should be Grand Theft Auto: The Fifth Element

[–]spgtothemax 0 points1 point ago

Bat signals replace stars. The signals indicate how wanted you are like the original game. But the higher the signal here better chance Batman will come after you.

GTA: Burn Notice.

'nuff said

[–]Somebody317 0 points1 point ago

why isnt this a game?

[–]Splortabot 0 points1 point ago

What if the character is "undying" like the guy that trains batman and was around in the time of al capone and other mobsters so he already is known and the batman has shiz running way back

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

TAKE MY FUCKING MONEY

[–]mr3film 0 points1 point ago

Gears of Halo Theft Auto 5

Should be the next one after GTA: Gotham City

[–]ynnufton 0 points1 point ago

Maybe instead of super-powers the guy could be like an anti-Batman.

He trains, learns martial arts, develops gadgets, etc. Maybe has Raz. and others teach him some stuff.

He starts out really weak but by the end of the game can actually fight Batman mano e mano.

[–]ZiggyOnMars 0 points1 point ago

And we can choose the path to be police and then Batman's sidekick.
