It doesn't look lazy, just misguided. The Arkham games are awesome, don't translate to 2D though.

I see lazy in two places:
1. The weak ass environments, which also could have been a result of the 3DS hardware.
2. The fact that they just stole every mechanic from the big boy games. Perhaps WB demanded that though.
I really think they wanted a portable, 2D version of the Arkham games. This is the quite literal result. Feels bad.
Yeah, that concept was flawed from day one.
The simple environments might definitely be due to 3DS compromise.
But all the scanning, good lord. In a huge, 3D world filled with different places to explore and enemies to sneak around (before you can punch them in the face), scanning is pretty rad.
But in a 2D world why would I scan?
"This scan lets me see that there are enemies to my right, which is the case of every 2D game ever. There is also a hidden grate 4 feet in front of me which I can see clearly."
Another trailer.
Just got this in. I haven't paid any attention to it. PS3 version seems to have some extra DLC.
This one isn't on PS3. It's not a good sign for either game that all of the reviews are embargoed until tomorrow though.
Whoops. Only paid attention to the batman origins part.
Yeah, Vita and 3DS don't even look good on their boxes.
