hehe, I wouldn't say that in the case of Batman :p, The Physx engine was something phenomenal, unlike the other Physyx games I've played.
 
The engine looks the same to me, so this game should run on my now aged 5770, right? Also, has anyone noticed a new trend in games? The trend of casting "current hot famous TV actress" in a lead role. Mass Effect 2 did it with Yvone and now batman does it with Stana, not that I am complaining. :P
 
It's UE3, so YES, it should work the same way, as Arkham Asylum did. As for the TV actors being roped in for voice acting, I have no issues as long as they do justice to the character.
 
O man, this is the game that commands my money. One reason that I sold the PS3 was that the batman AA was better on PC than my PS3.

I am still playing that game on hard mode third time and enjoying it as its my first time.

This one looks even better. Can't wait to lay my hands on it.

Arkham City to Have 2 Hours 40 Minutes of Cutscenes

UK ratings board the BBFC have just announced their rating for Batman: Arkham City. Similar to its prequel, Arkham Asylum, the game will carry a 15 rating. As well the rating they have also revealed the game's cutscene run time. "When submitted to the BBFC the linear elements within the work had a running time (eg cut scenes) of 165m 0s (2 hours 40 minutes)." We decided to take a look at BBFC's rating for Arkham Asylum and learnt that the game only contained a cut scene run time of "28m 58s."

Not only is Arkham City 4-5 times the size of Arkham Asylum but it seems that's the case for the cut-scenes as well!

Superb screens Ethan.

I somehow feel this game will take good amount of slice off UC3's pie. Might be a better game in the longer run and overall as well.

For those wondering about the length of the game:

Batman: Arkham City Up To 40 Hours Long, Map 5 Times Size Of Asylum's

Paul Crocker, lead narrative designer at Rocksteady has revealed to NowGamer that Batman: Arkham City will be longer and bigger than Akham Asylum.

Speaking with Crocker at Gamescom, he told us, "We have the single player game with the full narrative, and for that you're talking about the 20-25 hour mark. But if you want 100 per cent complete, with finding all 400 Riddler trophies, finding all the cameos, then we reckon that's at least 40 hours of gaming."

But Batman: Arkham City could offer even more value for money.

Crocker continued, "Then you have challenge mode, which has been expanded from the first game. There really is an infinite amount of possibilities. If you like the combat, or if you like the Predator challenges then really, you never have to buy another game. Challenge mode is here to make you a better Batman, or as it happens, a better Catwoman."

How big is Arkham City, in terms of map size?

"From a sheer size point of view, it's about five times as big as Arkham Asylum."

Finally, we asked Crocker about feedback they'd had from the Robin reveal. He told us, "Robin is one of the DLC player-characters in challenge mode. The feedback has been good, and we needed a Robin in our Akham-verse. He's one of those characters that lots of people have ideas about. Some like him, some hate him, but we love him, and in our game, he looks good next to Batman."

Batman: Arkham City is out on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC on 21 October.
