I hope that the gameplay is 12-15 hours and not the 8 hours that I reported but I'm anxiously awaiting the release of this game and even though is going to be released in my "busy" time, I'll definitely set some time for it.

I'm also reading the "No Man's Land" arc in the Batman books and loving it so far. Hopefully the game incorporates some of the comic book storyline into the game.

Just a heads up, Amazon has this down to $56.99 with a $10 preorder bonus.

Anybody play both the PS3 and 360 versions of Arkham Asylum? I bought the previous game for PS3 for the Joker levels (which turned out to be underwhelming), but due to the ongoing Sony fiasco I'm limiting my PS3 purchases to exclusives only. Just wondering what I'll lose/gain from the 360 version.

You're wanting to pick up the 360 version to replace your PS3 version? Why not just keep what you have?

Groucho

Sorry, I'm speaking in terms of buying Arkham City. I'm still leaning towards the PS3 version so I don't have to re-learn the controls, but I'm not thrilled about buying another PS3 game if I don't have to.

I have both versions...I picked up the ps3 cheap to do the Joker stuff...besides that, no real difference. I think if I remember the xbox version was zoomed in more on Batman, but it was not an issue really. I would pick the version that has bonus stuff, and if there is no "joker" extras just pick the version you want...

How different could the controls be?

Groucho

Many different?

Maxflier

No. Not even a few different.

RocShemp

Maybe he just prefer how the 360 controller feels in his hands.

Maxflier

Yeah, I could understand if that were the case. I was just pointing out that there shouldn't be any controls to re-learn since the two crontrollers have the exact same button layout.

Looks like it'll be awesome to play as Catwoman (unlike how aweful it was to play as the Joker)!

Ew.

And Catwoman looks great

RocShemp

Those are some nasty looking controllers.

Groucho

Corded!?

DVDChris

Those look cool IMO. Only Xbox is corded because of the ridiculous proprietary MS technology that the charge a lot for.

Solid Snake

ugly fuckers those are.

kefrank

Those controllers seem much more in keeping with the awful Schumacher Batman movies than with the Arkham Asylum/City games.

12 minutes of gameplay footage? Including Catwoman as a playable character? Sure!

I loved the line about Strange being gone for so long ...

The Riddler is going to be awesome in this game:
