Played the demo, pre-ordered the game... absolutely superb.
Bat fans will love it.

The collectors edition comes with a 14" batarang on a stand also

I thought it was a bit style over substance. Yet another Final Fight clone with flashy graphics

Best game of the year - Bar none.

What do you think?

Honestly, its an ok game. I didnt seem to enjoy as much as other people have, its just so repetitive and short, 6-7 hours with all riddles for me. GOTY?? Not this year, not with Boaderlands and Operation Flashpoint coming out.

found it quite boring after 3-4 hours and I cant see much replay value unless you want to do all the riddles

Dont think i could finish it 3 times! Think i got around 650 - 700 GS on one playthrough and that enough for me, no real reason for me to play it again at all.

Its just the superhero aspect what does it for me, i hope the bring out a sandbox type of batman, like GTA4.

In the records for what?
'Most Critically Acclaimed Superhero Game Ever' (http://www.batmanarkhamasylum.com/?page=articles/view&AID=3364).

It's a clever bit of marketing puff (http://www.joystiq.com/2009/08/28/batman-arkham-asylum-receives-uninspiring-guinness-world-record/) really.

Brilliant game! Got it on the 360 and love it. Going to get Colin Mcrae Dirt 2 today too, played that yesterday and is also excellent.

Can anyone tell me what the Boss levels are like? I generally dislike bosses, as they break the flow of the game and can sometimes be just too hard so you get stuck (I'm a casual gamer).

Slightly challenging but totally doable (and I played on normal difficulty, not easy)
