Batman: The Brave and the Bold has gained quite a following. Considered to be the best animated Batman
not named
Batman: The Animated Series, the show features Diedrich Bader providing a somewhat whimsical, deadpan flair to Batman. Fans of the show will be excited to know that a video game adaptation (?) of the series is in the works, slated for release this fall.
Batman: The Brave and the Bold the Videogame gives gamers the chance to play as Batman alone or with a superheroic partner, including Robin, Green Lantern, Blue Beetle and Aquaman (among others). Nintendo is pushing their Wii/DS connectability as well, as connecting the two systems will unlock Bat-Mite on the Wii version (controlled by a DS). And what would a Batman game be without his gadgets? Gamers can also expect to have at their disposal Batarangs and his Granel Gun.
“Batman: The Brave and the Bold the Videogame further illustrates the diverse appeal of the Batman brand and the gameplay is a fun, vibrant extension of the animated series,” said Samantha Ryan, Senior Vice President of Development and Production, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. “The game’s co-op play offers kids, families and Batman fans an interactive way of experiencing the cartoon’s iconic characters.”
I think it goes without saying that you're not going to get
Batman: Arkham Asylum intensity here. Instead, I'd advise you get this game if you have kids in your household or are really just that big a fan of Batman. Although, with Warner Bros.' recent
purchase of Rocksteady Studios in addition to this game, they may be getting really, really serious about making Batman a viable video game franchise.
Full press release after the jump. You can also check out Omnicomic interviews with
Bader and
Will Friedle from way back when the show was just starting.
