Last I heard, Eidos confirmed that it will be released at the end of Summer. I haven't seen an exact date yet though

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

Thanks, guys. Crappy news since I was looking forward to playing this sooner rather than later but I appreciate the responses nonetheless.

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

i know we've talked about this, but that still doesn't sound like Kevin Conroy doing Batman's voice. At least not the same sounding voice he did in the cartoons.

That's all Conroy!

It appears he's doing his JL/JLU Batman voice. It sounds like they also got Diane Pershing to voice Poison Ivy again.

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

Did anyone else saw the demo of the game, for the PS3, in Best But?

I played with it a couple of weeks ago and it looked really smooth. The part that was available was not story based but more of minigames but they were good.

Its sounds like him enough that I can say "Hey its Conroy" Now its Hamill that doesnt sound like hes doing the Joker.... Im still weary its him.

I gave the game a spin at Gamestop a few weeks back and it was pretty damn fun. Real fluid and easy to play. Kinda like God of War

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

Wow! I just saw game trailers has a trailer with ingame footage of the PS3 Joker exclulsive and he has his own set of moves and special weapons/gadgets. I thought he would be just a 'skin' but no way! Fucking sweet! I have never been more excited for a game!

#1 : As far as I understand it, he's playable in both versions during the story mode; he's only playable in the Challenge levels on the PS3.

#2: You can bet that he'll be downloadable for the 360 at some time in the future like New Goblin was for Spiderman 3 on the 360.

That said, I've preordered the PS3 version.

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

I've read somewhere that Robin is exclusive for the 360. Sucks for 360 only owners if that's the case.

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

I don't look at it that way. I think this exclusivity business sucks for everyone all around. I get the trend, and why it's done, it just sucks for us consumers. Especially, when you only own one console or the other.

But as has been mentioned, eventually, the exclusive things will become DLC like Yoda and Darth Vader from Soul Calibur. I just won't be paying for it. I'm not rewarding this bullshit.

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

Apparently this game has been delayed until when it is unclear when. I have been searching around and I have seen anywhere between late august , and December. There is a sign up at Target offering a refund on preorders because there is no longer a release date.

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

I understand the August date what I am saying is the rumor mill (annoying ass fanboys) are saying that that date has been pushed, and also maybe I am remembering it wrong but the last reservation card that I saw at Target had that date but the card has been pulled and they now have that sign. It wouldnt be the first time a "hard" street date got missed, and that is including gamestop, and Amazon. But hey I didn't say I believe it was delayed just putting it out there to see if there was new info.
