Spielegrotte, Primalgames, Hellgames, all the small shops in germany are selling the game. Gamestop won't....even if you pre-ordered it. This is a slap in the face for all their customers. It was definately my last pre-order at gamestop.

You should never preorder or buy at gamestop.

I swear Catwoman's ass on the back cover is a huge seller.

Wise choice Rocksteady and WB.

Can you not purchase at one of those other retailers and cancel your Gamestop order? At least in the US, they'll refund any amount you put down, or allow you to use it on something else. Unless GS is the closest store to you; that would suck.

PhysX logo on the PS3 version?

I don't get it. Where the fuck is the PhysX logo for Xbox 360?

Arkham Asylum the PhysX logo was on BOTH console versions.

:( Am I the only one who thought this was launching simultaneously on all platforms?
I though ubi was only screwing pc players over on the Assassins Creed franchise....

Also, if there is not a thread already dedicated to it and if someone could be so kind as to provide it, if not... Anyone know the cheapest & legit/reliable place to buy DD pc version?
Thanks :)

As I understand it, PhysX is available on all current-gen consoles as a middleware physics solution, although no such games will see the features you receive when using capable PC hardware (i.e. an nvidia GPU). Essentially, the move was designed to poach market share from Havoc.

Marketing stuff-up? I doubt Rocksteady are using a non-PhysX physics solution in Arkham City X360 when the other versions (PS3, PC, and presumably Wii U) are using it, as well as the fact - that you mentioned - the X360 version of Asylum used PhysX.

Well...it seems that Rocksteady cut off story parts (Catwoman) because of the online pass.

A user who plays the game already says that the catwoman part (we know it from the gameplay videos) is missing in the game (he decides to not enter the pass-code)

Bullshit.

I feel the same as this guy.

I don't think so man,what I think is,even if you don't redeem the code you WILL be able to play with Catwoman in the Story Mode(10% of the game) and that redeem code give you extra 4 missions and unlocks the DLC TROPHIES.Otherwise there was no point,so people who don't have Xbox/PS3 connected to the Internet couldn't play with Catwoman?Rs wouldn't do that.

The redeem code is just a Catwoman DLC...

I'm surprised GT didn't made a video preview. Guess they were too busy playing AssCreed.

Edit: Arkham City live stream guy is back. Don't go to justin.tv

NO NO NO I'm not watching!!

At the rate I'm going I'm not sure I can hold out for the PC version....grrrr.

While the PC version will be technical superior to the rest by a large margin, GFWL/non-Steamworks and the delay have made it a day one console game for me.
