Also its a petty gripe but I dont like their choice of voice actress for her character in particular, kinda hope thats not their final choice. Very much doubt they're going to recast an entire role after releasing a gameplay trailer, considering dialogue is usually one of the earliest things they produce in the development process for games. IMDB says the VA is America Young, who doesn't seem to have voiced Batgirl before, but she's not too far out of line for what I'd expect from the character. Though I agree, I don't really like it all that much either. Though now I'm curious - which of the various versions of Batgirl voice do you consider to be one of the better ones? I don't think she's ever really had a universally iconic voice in the same way that, say, Batman or Joker have. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIKc1mZyOpw I think I might go with Tara Strong, personally. But there really isn't one voice that really hits home strongly for me. I don't know if there's ever really been a VA for her that really clicks for me. But that might be because I tend to think of her more as older Barbara Gordon/Oracle than I do a younger Batgirl, so most of the younger voices jar a bit for me. Blightzkrieg posted... I really hope this is good. It won't be, but I really want it to be. I've already sort of checked out because I think the Court of Owls are a terrible concept, and the fact that they're using them means I'm probably going to dislike the story. That's a problem I'm going to have more and more as time goes on, though. It seems the comic companies are really keen on adapting storylines and characters that mostly came out over the last 20 years or so (as opposed to the 40-60 years worth of material before that), but I think the last decade or so has produced some of the worst storylines ever. So a lot of the things I hate about modern comics are slowly becoming the things I hate about modern comic films/shows/cartoons/games as well. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:943988375] in Gotham Kni...
