Errr Phil, get on it it's awesome!!!

Jesus! I was gonna say it's not that far on the map, 2 hours on a train seems absurd. Ah well, I'm sure you could get it online. Don't get a digital copy, it's awful. There's nothing like having a book in your hands and turning the pages yourself...

[Andy K]

I did get the digital copy in the end because I was bored. the DC app works really well on the ipad and reading the comic was no issue, and I don't have to worry about it getting crumbled or lost.

ANYWAY, That's not the big news... This is!



Catwoman a full character to play the game in a totally different style, different combat, different gadgets. Sounds very cool, I'm excited in my pants!

Just an update to my reading the comic prequel that is acting as the joinery between Arkham Asylum and Arkham City. I am enjoying the comics so far, and unless they plan on putting some kind of recap in the game, then this is essential reading so you know what the hell has happened between the time period of the two games.

Have to say, not feeling the whole Catwoman thing, but that aside - what I saw of the gameplay at E3 was brilliant and as fluid as ever. The city fly-bys look great fun and really show off the level of thought and detail the team have thrown at the game.

Batman: Arkham City - Launch trailer

[Andy K]

GOTY!!! Put it down now, and I've only played 25% of the story.

Absolutely love the story, but I would say you NEED to read the comics that serve as a prequel to the game, feels in a lot of the gaps and makes some sense to the setting and opening of the story.

I do have some issue with the Riddler puzzles and amount of Bat foes they have crammed in, but that doesn't make it bad in anymway.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT, I'M BATMAN!!
