Excellent OP!
Looking back now, I think it was actually a very good idea that this game was delayed. I can't wait to get my hands on it.

Collectors Edition is mine. First third party game ive bought in a long while, let alone the collectors edition.
I haven't been following this game at all and I definitely don't want to start a flamewar, but what is the system to pick this up on? The reviews have caught my attention. I don't even really know anything about batman.
I heard something about challenge rooms?

And not just timed exclusive challenge rooms either, Sony paid for these to be forever PS3 only.
Performance-wise, the 360 and PS3 versions are identical, although there is less AA in the PS3 version; it's a really good looking game regardless. The PC version smokes both of them on that and features enhanced physics elements paid for by thanks to nVidia. It's also a Games For Windows Live title, so you'll be able to earn achievements for your GFWL/XBL account. Sadly, it's coming out three weeks after the other versions.
My brother's picking this up on the PS3, but I'll be waiting for the PC version myself. Insane hyperbole from the Game Informer review aside, I'm really stoked for this game to come out.

I'd say PC >PS3 > 360 where this title is concerned.
But only if your PC could really handle the game. If it falls into the "barely playable" category, move on to the PS3 version for the reasons stated above.
If the Dualshock controller bothers you then 360 it is !
Edit: Beaten!

Honestly I forget that newegg sells games, I usually only go there when I'm looking for computer related things. I actually just picked up an new notebook drive and external hard drive from them last week. Does Newegg take paypal? Some online retailers don't

Damn I didn't know

scarecrow was in the game until I saw the banner
You should make sure to list the VA cast in one of those posts; I'm still amazed that they got everyone from the cartoon back, outside of John Glover (Riddler) and Melissa Gilbert (Barbara Gordon). From the sound of it in the demo, they definitely brought their A game with them.

Want to buy the pc version just because I can run it at a native res for my screen and at 60 (with physx off) just have to wait those few extra weeks 
Demo was awesome, too awesome in fact as I played it about 8 times.

At least you don't have to wait over 3 months for Red Faction Guerrilla to come out for the PC. Man, now that I think of it September will ruin my wallet.
Oh, and thanks DrBo

It is the same actor.
I don't think you should list the *entire* VA cast; there's one character that's kind of spoiler-y and is going to be weird to hear talking with Batman, due to their previous on-screen relations in the Diniverse.
I love the cartoons way too much to be healthy. :lol

Well for me, Buy.com and amazon charge me taxes
Plus, one time when I ordered the MGS Collection, all they sent me was a cardboard box.
Buy.com redeemed themselves by quickly sending me the game.
In any case, you ordered the game. That's the important part.:lol
Man. I'm so hyped for this.

The problem is not everyone has an Nvidia card. I wish ATI had some sort of Physx support.
For the PC folks, i'd recommend you make a section for all the mods.
Speaking of which, here is that Thread from Eidos' forums. One user even made a TDK costume.

I'm pretty new to file sharing but thought I'd give it a crack... I've created a Dark Knight Batsuit for those who are interested. Still working on it but here's what I have so far.

Finally! I'll set up a tent in here if that's alright. 11 days left :O I forgot to ask about the CE this Friday >_< Gamestop Sweden said Aug 27th btw. The guy seemed pretty sure about it too because he had his own personal countdown ("it's 13 days left today").
It looks a bit weird with the huge headshots cutoffs on the right side though
