Warner Bros. and Rocksteady brought the Dark Knight to Sony's E3 press conference to reveal new gameplay footage of Batman: Arkham Knight. It was also announced that PlayStation 4 owners would receive exclusive Scarecrow Nightmare Missions that would center around the Arkham inmate that's still at-large.

Batman could be seen gliding through a much-bigger Gotham City, more alive than in previous games. And of course, the Dark Knight is flanked by the Bat-mobile. But not only did the Dark Knight show more of the driving mechanics in action, he also converted the Bat-mobile into battle mode to show some of the vehicles cannons, as well.

The trailer moved on to Bats closing in on The Penguin and giving him an intense interrogation on the mysterious Arkham Knight, before shifting over to The Scarecrow. The villain was spotted uttering these ominous words: "All that remains is for you to watch as I drag your beloved Gotham into oblivion."

It'll be a long painful wait, because Batman: Arkham Knight is now scheduled to arrive in 2015.

But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
