I played this at London Comic Con back in October, and although I can't comment on gameplay (the fucking controllers were inverted and couldn't be changed once the demo had started), what I can say from playing 15 minutes of it is that the graphics aren't amazing, but better than the first game. However what I played was a very dark colour pallet, and with the cell shading it did feel very dark.
I'm Batman! Well okay maybe not, but I bloody deserve to be after collecting all those Riddler trophies in Arkham City!

Oddly, I used to play inverted on PC all the time, then when I went to consoles I got into non-inverted, and I've never looked back since.

Lol I've been playing some really old PS1 and PS2 games and inverted is pretty much the standard back then, Many of them you can't even change it. As soon as Halo came out with the 'regular' stick orientation all of a sudden inverted as all wrong! Fuck it everyone plays how they do and bitching about it gets no-one anywhere.

I dont remember any game on the PS1 and PS2 being inverted. I have never used it. Never used it on PC either. Only time I ever have is flight games
