by Rainier on Aug. 19, 2008 @ 9:43 a.m. PDT

LEGO Batman features all of the characters from the LEGO Batman construction sets, plus a few new additions. Gamers will have the ability to roam the streets of LEGO Gotham City as Batman or Robin, and even take control of the villains while manipulating gadgets and building and operating fantastic vehicles in one- or two-person co-op gameplay.

In LEGO Batman: The Videogame, TT Games brings the world of DC Comics' Caped Crusader to life in an entirely new way. Players can explore a richly interactive LEGO Gotham City as Batman and Robin, capturing infamous villains - and even take control of the villains themselves.

The LEGO Batman: The Videogame story unfolds with Batman's greatest foes escaping from Arkham Asylum and creating mayhem throughout Gotham City. Tracking criminals, including The Joker and The Penguin, players will utilize Batman's gadgets as well as build and operate fantastic vehicles in one or two player cooperative gameplay.

BATGIRL

REAL NAME: Barbara Gordon
OCCUPATION: Librarian
BASE OF OPERATIONS: Gotham City
EYES: Blue
HAIR: Red

As the adopted daughter of Gotham City’s Police Commissioner James W. Gordon, Barbara Gordon was raised in a household filled with cops and their stories. Barbara wanted nothing more than to follow in her father’s heroic footsteps, but the elder Gordon, knowing how dangerous the streets of his crime-ridden city could be, refused to allow it. Bothered by her father’s refusal to allow her to serve on the G.C.P.D., Barbara wore a homemade “Batgirl” costume to a masquerade ball as a jibe against her father but instead wound up saving billionaire Bruce Wayne from a kidnapping attempt by Killer Moth. Deciding that this was how she could serve the cause of justice, Barbara Gordon elected to keep her new costumed identity. Her source of inspiration, Batman, was as much against her decision as her father would have been had he known who she was behind the mask, but the Dark Knight eventually came to accept Barbara as Batgirl and as part of his inner circle of crimefighters protecting Gotham City.

In LEGO Batman: The Videogame, Batgirl has the ability to utilize Batman’s technology suits including the Glide suit, Heat Protection Suit, Sonic Suit and Demolition suit in her efforts to fight crime alongside the Dynamic Duo.

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment will bring LEGO Batman: The Videogame to PS2, Wii, PS3, X360, and the PC in 2008.
