Default The Introduction Thread

Here's a thread for people to introduce themselves and share a little info on their Batman addiction if they choose (kudos to SilentGuardian, as this was his idea )

There's always quite a few guests browsing the forums so we thought perhaps this thread might encourage some of you to get involved!

(I'll start and see how this thread goes for a little while).


I'm 31, I've been working at Eidos for about eight or nine years man and boy. Started off testing games, worked on everything from Timesplitters 2 (great fun), Anachronox (epic) and Popstar Maker (the worst *** game ever). And I've been doing community management stuff for about five years. Batman: Arkham Asylum is the best game I've worked with

Hey all, I'm Dan and I am obsessed with the wonderful world of Batman! He connects with me on a more personal level, just because he is cool, but also because he is more human. And the Batman universe is just ripe with iconic characters, archvillians, and moments! I have been following this game from the beginning; and after finally preordering my Collectors Edition of B:AA at EB Games/ Gamestop, I also have finally joined the forums. I look forward to having many great discussions on here, and I am proud to be involved. When B:AA releases, you can find and compare scores with me; PSN ID: Goodmangamerguy! Good luck, and happy chatting!

Hi guys my name is Diego I am 23 years old I live in the U.S. but I was born in Bolivia, I am a huge batman fan I find him and his foes very interesting. A weird thing that I always do is making connections between batman characters and classical literature and/or philosophy. I have been a fan since I saw the first Burton movie then I got into the animated series and then comics and graphic novels, I also collect batman related action figures… yes I am a huge geek. Batman is one of the influences in me starting to practice martial arts. I can’t wait for this game. My xbl name is K1LL1N JOKE please feel free to add me.

I got into Batman fairly recently, when I got my brother the LEGO Batman game for his birthday, and started checking out some of the comics out of curiosity. Nevertheless, the game got me into all of the different foes, and, despite the annoyance of my siblings, who call me obsessed, I am now a fan.

Guess I'll throw my own intro in. Hi! I'm Nightwing, 22 years old from the north east of England. Just returned from Canada recently, my identity as Nightwing has followed me from many other forums to here.... strangely I first used it on a Sonic forum ages and ages ago.

Been into the entire Bat-family since I was a kid, first triggered by the animated series which I watched on Saturday mornings. (yay! memories!) Since then, I've read and watched more and more I guess. Seen every Batman there is to see I think, with one notable exception. Also read a fair bit (but nowhere near all) of Batman, Robin, Nightwing, some Superman stuff and even a little Question. So I guess I'm fairly diverse in that respect. Yeah, I think that's enough about me, let's hear about you?

Hey,

I'm 27, I've been a Batman fan since I was two or three. Loved almost all of the Bat-movies (we will not speak of that one movie that shall not be named), and overall I just love the entire DC Universe. I'm really excited for this game... it looks like the first good Batman game in a while.

I'm also working on a series of YouTube skits with my friends about a guy who happens to live with a talking cardboard standup of Batman. The teaser can be seen here... if you check back in a couple weeks we should have the first one or two official webisodes posted. (Love it or hate it, leave feedback if you can!)

PSN ID is superdarrin82. Feel free to add me.

Hey, I'm Matt and I have been a casual batman fan for a few years which have been spent reading various graphic novels. I'm 16 and have just finished my first year of college.

My other interests are probably music and video games, I am a big fan of Pearl Jam, Faith No more (haven't actually got the introduce yourself album for some reason), Tool, A Perfect Circle, Nine inch nails and Pantera. I've only been playing games since the release of the PS1 so I sadly have missed out on some of the timely classics released on the sega megadrive etc. My favourite games I've played have probably been either the ratchet and clank series, the timesplitters series or the god of war games and my favourite game I've played on this generation of consoles is probably bioshock. I have a feeling that B:AA could take 1st place for my favourite game though, only time will tell

Hey,

I'm Eric, 18 yrs old, I'm from the expensive state of New Jersey and will be starting my second year of college in September. Hopefully I will be able to graduate with a political science major..if I make it out alive. Batman has been my idol ever since the days of the animated series. Real big fan and it wasn't until lately that I was able to find a place that sold comics near me! (about 45 mins. away) And now we have this fabulous Bat-game!!! I mean what more could I ask for!!!!!

Hey my name is Logan as in Wolverine, it used to be one of a kind name when I was a kid, but not you guys use is too much and have the luxury of fire . Like Mr. Todd I have been a fan since I was seven and I remember looking through the drug store looking for some Batman good reads, good times.I'm a windy city man in the US and I enjoy comic books, video gaming, and making sarcastic remarks on people's stupidity. Which most of you know by now . Just remember four words "Don't diss the Croc" and three more "Hugs not drugs! " I hope you can sense and smell the kind of guy I am.

Hello all, my name is Bryan AKA The Boshart. I am 21 years old, have an IQ of 145, and can run a five minute mile.
I started playing games since age two, when I got into games like Shinobi and Sonic. And have been a life long gamer ever since. I dream of one day opening up my own game store.
I have been a Batman fan as long as I can remember, though I've hopped in and out of the comics for years. I've been hoping for a game that portrayed all the aspects of Batman for many years, so I am highly enthusiastic for this game.
My PSN is The_Boshart if anyone cares.

My name's Marc. I'm 19. and live in England. My interests are art, music and psychology. I do a lot of tattoo design, and hope to be tattooing when I turn 21. I'm more into Scandinaivan music right now, with my favourite band being HIM.
Been a Batman fan since I watched the animated series, and it carried on from there. More so with reading up on the history of Batman and his villains, and recently studying them from a psychological standpoint, as opposed to buying the comics. Though I own Hush volumes 1 and 2, Batman: Year One, Batman: War Crimes, and The Killing Joke.
That's about it I think.
