Vehicle building is a big part of LEGO Batman. Here Killer Croc rides on a custom 'gator. Chomp!

The attention to detail is impressive -- Tim Burton would be proud!

Fans of the LEGO franchise seem to have reveled in blowing those things up with a friend, so LEGO Batman is designed with cooperative play firmly in mind. Online co-op will be available on the Xbox 360 via Xbox LIVE and on PlayStation 3 over the PlayStation Network. Ad-hoc co-op will be available on the PSP version as well. LEGO Batman will also see the light of day on other consoles, including the PlayStation 2, PC and Mac, as well as an all-new, uniquely designed Nintendo DS version. "The DS version is gonna be awesome," declares Doyle. "It's written from the ground up by the same team that did LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga for the DS. There will be loads of touch screen stuff in there, like Catwoman's whip, all of the panels and switches, and certain attacks like the grapple gun. And the vehicles are going to be really cool too. I can't wait for people to see that version." Considering how charming the LEGO games have been thus far, neither can we.

Stay tuned to this batchannel, where we'll have more details on this game before it hits shelves this fall!--Hugh Sterbakov
