    Description:
    This iceberg explores many interesting facts about the classic LEGO: Batman The Video Game. The references to the famous comic The Killing Joke, No Man's Land, Batman The Animated Series & more.
    Lego Batman: The Videogame is a 2008 action-adventure video game developed by Traveller's Tales and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, released for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable, Wii, Nintendo DS, Microsoft Windows, and Mac OS X. The game is based on the DC Comics character Batman, as well as the eponymous LEGO Batman toyline.
    The game is similar to earlier Lego games developed by Traveller's Tales, such as Lego Star Wars series and Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures, in that it is both a game based on a licensed property, and has environments, objects, and creatures made out of Lego. However, Lego Batman is the first to have an original story. The Mac OS X version of the game was released in April 2009 by Feral Interactive.[1] The game received positive reviews, and spawned two sequels: Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes and Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham, as well as a villains-only spin-off, Lego DC Super-Villains.
    The video explores how LEGO Batman: The Video Game ties in with Christopher Nolan's Batman series, Tim Burton & Joel Schumacher's 90s films, many famous comics such as The Killing Joke & No Mans Land. It explores theories surrounding many classical characters such as Joker & his origin story, Harley Quinn, Mr. Freeze, The Riddler and more. Matt Reeves The Batman is coming to theatres in March 2022
    Iceberg Tiers (or charts) Explained/Explanation videos are are usually images of an iceberg, captioned humorously so as to convey that the tip of the iceberg is the summation of the knowledge of most people, while the much larger submerged part of the iceberg is the sum of all knowledge of a particular topic They are an evolution of documentary, video essays & Top 10 lists
    Popular iceberg chart videos explore internet mysteries such as unexplained 4Chan mysteries, Dark Web mysteries, or deep dives into popular media series such as LEGO or creepy youtube ARG series. The Minecraft Iceberg explained is one popular example and explores many popular TH-camrs such as TommyInnit or Dream, DreamSMP, Wilbur Soot, Lovejoy & other popular MCYT clips. Not Minecraft, But Water Rises or Minecraft, But Lava Rises, or a speed run / speed runner of Minecraft against a killer / assassin. Game theories, Batman theories & joker origin theories. Was Heath Ledger Dark Knight Joker part of the military background or CIA agent? Long detailed video.

    Hello, I am the creator of this iceberg and I approve of this video, I remembered about the several differences between the console and ds version, such as alternate robin vehicles, moves for characters and Clayface’s identity being different but I forgot to let polar know in time. There was something else I remembered that I did tell him about but he didn’t see the message until it came out, that being an error in one of the cutscenes, where right before the Batboat Battle level begins, two penguin goons are depicted as riding on killer croc’s vehicle in the game, which is impossible in regular gameplay

    The deepest part of the iceberg that's part of this game for me is a hidden room I discovered in the DS version. It's in the secret room behind the wall in the cell at Arkham Asylum. If I ran at the left wall the right way, the camera would clip through the wall and reveal a room that I didn't remember seeing in any of the levels and I have no clue why it's there. I remember it having the blue brick puzzle in it so maybe it was part of a cut level or something...

    Interesting video. BTW when ya went over the facts, I think you should have mentioned that one of the facts actually mentions Superman and his weakness to kryptonite. I think this is interesting, because in no other place in the game is there any references to the larger dc universe. This is the only reference to other non Batman dc characters in LEGO before the second game and what not.

    • @polarisneo

    travelers tales and lego back then werent as ridiculously kid friendly as they are today. You can even compare the same death scenes from lego star wars 1 and 2, to the complete saga and skywalker saga. And see how they censored the deaths even more in the most recent game. That now, according to the skywalker saga, no character actually ever died. But in lego star wars 1 and 2, characters actually had their deaths

    Very quality video, but you're definitely off on one here.
    Although there is some reason to not think that Lego Batman 1 isn't canon to 2/3/DC SV, there is quite the large litany of evidence that they're connected.
    Huge amount of various references, a lot of the same characters used, many of the same designs used, much of the soundtrack being similar, and the big thing, a massive amount of gameplay crossover. Not only are the basic gameplay elements almost the exact same, but many specific features are similar as well

    I started replaying this game from the beginning a few days ago, and it didn't occur to me how dark it felt in my childhood. I played it almost to completion (couldn't get one minikit) when I was like 6 or so, and coming back to it after almost 10 years it feels oddly terrifying. There's nothing specifically wrong that I can pinpoint, but the dilapidated aura of the game and small, mature easter eggs make it feel cryptic. It makes me wonder how the hell I played this without nightmares when I was younger tbh lmao

    To add to the last entry of it being the darkest Lego Batman game, I think the picture of a red mask Robin model on the last tier is supposed to be about Jason Todd . Considering the Robin in this game is Tim and Nightwing is a playable character . That means that the joker has already killed Jason in this universe adding another layer of darkness to previous mentioned things.

But because the dark nature of tkj it had to be cut back and references toned down to just the general allusions and the tropical joker.

Another game that creeps me out is Super Mario 64, and I mean the original N64 version. In the castle, seeing how there's no-ne around, with the ominous castle theme in the background; The ghosts in the basement and some of the paintings being downright scary. Never got through past the half way point of the game.

    As a kid I just simply thought this game was very cool, but looking back at it all now, I am indeed kinda surprised how many "dark" gags they were able to fit in there. Another one you forgot to mention is that Bane can actually break a person's back as a grab kill move. I remember seeing that a lot and stuff like that and Joker's unalive joke never really phased me. That kind of thing would NEVER be approved for a Lego game today. People and companies had much thicker skin back in the 2000's and before, it's honestly pretty sad how most things are turning up now all even more watered down. That Yeti theory of him being Snowball is pretty good though, even if it's most likely a coincidence. I definitely believe he was an unused enemy for one of the Mr. Freeze and/or last Penguin levels.

    I was surprised the iceberg didn't include the differences between the Wii version and the other console versions.

The Wii version is also unique for using motion controls to aim the batarangs.

    This is gonna sound crazy, but I swear I’ve seen a part of Lego Batman nobody has mentioned before. So when I was a little kid around 4 or 5 or so, I remember walking into the Apple Store of all places with my dad and seeing Lego Batman on display on a couple of their mac desktops. It played a cutscene of Mr Freeze stealing a blue crystal from a jewelry gallery or something like that. I haven’t seen this cutscene anywhere online since. It also had a gameplay segment set in a grungy back alley with stairs leading to a apartment building. That’s all I can remember as we only watched the demo for a few minutes before leaving (side note: I later got a copy for Mac a few days later and that was my first real video game haha) but yeah I haven’t seen anyone else mention, talk about it, or put videos up showing it.

    Some things I want to point out is that Batman isn't the only game with no gold bricks, because Indiana Jones didn't either, Spoiler isn't in the DS version of the game, only a custom exclusive character, and there's a cool glitch where you can play with zero hearts. Play as a character with a gun and can't touch toxic waste, run into toxic waste, and when you start sinking, keep shooting and hold the stick towards solid ground, and soon you'll escape it with all of your hearts gone. I'm pretty sure you have to have invincibility on too.
