Batman: Arkham City

[Paul 584]

Chill out man.

[DC 536]

Stop the punning... please. It's a new Batman game and this is snow time for joking.

[dsrchris 190]

But these jokes give me a warm feeling I can't arctic-ulate by any other means!

[ViciousPrism 177]

:roll This is ridiculous. I'm giving these puns the cold shoulder.

[Guest Dave7g]

Freezus Christ! Enough now.

[ViciousPrism 177]

If icy any more puns, I'm gonna get angry. You're all on thin ice.

[etz 78]

Wow, this discussion got frigid in a hurry..... maybe we all just need to chillax :P

[DC 536]

I think if we keep this off-topic stuff going we'll end up on a cool-off.

[Guest Saz]

Hi guys! What's going on?

 

Puns? I give in, I never artica-late them well enough!

[dsrchris 190]

DUPLICATE PUN!! :(

 

Gah!!

[Maxximus 353]

Stay frosty guys. I'm sure someone will come up with something new.

[DC 536]

Moving on from the punning, Edge magazine have reported that Bane is going to be a character in the game, but he'll be an ally of Batman this time around. No word on whether he's playable like Catwoman.

Coheed and Cambria are contributing a track to the OST called "Deranged". Sounds pretty good.

[DC 536]

IGN have given the game 9.5/10.

[dsrchris 190]

I'm definitely getting the special edition. It's all been confirmed by Mrs Deeser.

 

This pleases me greatly.

[Guest John Hancock]

I'm not getting the full on special edition, but I'm getting the "Catwoman" edition, whatever that means. Looks like you get a fancy box or something. It was the cheapest version they had for pre-order on Amazon, so whatever.

[Guest Anime Otaku]

I think Catwoman edition is just for Preordering. Though I was reading on a blog that Catwoman is going to be a day one DLC that you need a code that you get with it to use or you have to pay for it a bit like the play pass all the EA sports games are coming out with.

[DC 536]

This is taken from IGN and will explain all you need to know, John -:

 

"Leading up to Batman: Arkham City, Rocksteady talked a lot about the Catwoman missions in the game -- that 10 percent of Arkham City was all about Selina Kyle. Well, it turns out that content isn't included on the disc. If you buy the game new, it comes with a one-time use code to download the Catwoman content. Used copies will most likely have the code snatched up and you'll need to buy the DLC off Xbox Live or the PlayStation Store.

 

If I can give you some advice, download and install the Catwoman missions before starting the game. Her four story missions, inserted throughout Batman: Arkham City, are a fun (albeit simple) change of pace, and literally change the opening of the game. I downloaded her stuff after beating the game the first time, and the integrated Catwoman stuff during my New Game Plus playthrough was way more enjoyable than just tackling her missions off the main menu. This is downloadable content that expands the mythos of the game as you're playing it. It explains events that are happening off camera.

 

Outside of the four missions, the Catwoman DLC gives you challenge maps for the feline and the ability to get the special Catwoman Riddler Trophies in Arkham City."

[Guest John Hancock]

So the Catwoman stuff is only DLC?
