Delighted to hear that it's only a single player game.

Online isnt as good as i thought it would be when i heard about it before i bought a next gen console, there's only a few gd online games that i got addicted to cod4,bfbc2,uncharted 2, mgo and killzone. i prefer single player only games so developers can just concentrate and make it the most enjoyable , cinematic experience possible

Amen to that!
Sadly the majority of publishers don't see it that way and force their devs to shoehorn multiplayer into a game that really doesn't need it. It seems like such a waste of valuable dev time and talent sometimes.

Fair play to Rocksteady for sticking to their guns batarangs

Thanks for posting the link sheehy83.Pity there isn't much in the way of new info.I think they missed a Trick by not having Deadshot be the one who pulled the trigger.Can't wait for this,just hope its not released too close to Mass Effect 3,Uncharted 3 & Gears 3.

Can't wait for this game, probably the most anticipated game of the year for me anyway.

Bought Arkham Asylum a few weeks back and finished it yesterday.
Brilliant game, miles better than I thought it'd be.
Joker is a fantastic character in it, top class acting by whoever played him.
The Scarecrow parts were excellent too.
Can't wait for the next one.

That was Mark Hamill aka Luke Skywalker. He does the voice in the cartoons too. Sadly, he said that Arkham City will be the last time he does the voice.

It was Mark Hamill (aka Luke Skywalker) - He did the voice of the Joker in the fantastic Batman Animated Series from the 90's

Well worth finishing it. Some of the Scarecrow scenes are mind blowing.

Of all the collector's editions I've bought, that has been the worst one. The batarang was plastic and stuck to the actual pedestal. And the game didn't even come in a plastic/metal case. It was in a book type thing that was cheap and plasticy. Great game, but terrible collector's edition.

Own it on both PS3 and PC. Really looking forward to this one too. Like the changes that they appear to have made (i.e. not being so reliant on detective vision )

I thought the Batarang was metalic. I was even thinking of putting a ad up on Adverts looking for it.I hope the new game has a cool collectors edition.
