FRICK!

The game got delayed from June until... well the end of the summer which is oddly vague.

Hi everyone. There's been a lot of speculation about the Batman: Arkham Asylum release date. Eidos has just announced this statement (wanted you folk to get the official word first)....

"Eidos Interactive and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment can today confirm that Batman: Arkham Asylum will be released at the end of summer 2009. This additional time will allow us to ensure Batman: Arkham Asylum is of the highest quality for gamers."

They had a PS3 kiosk set up at my local Best Buy with a demo of this game.

From what I can tell, in the demo you just fight progressive waves of tougher baddies.

But it was really fun - I'm probably going to pick this up. The combat felt so perfect. You could use triangle to counter, and the game gave you alerts on when a guy was about to hit you. So you could be punching the crap out of someone, then catch a guy's foot who is trying to kick you under your arm and them slam your elbow into him.

You can also utilize your cape to stun enemies, and if you run at someone and press triangle you could jump over them and hit them from behind.

Not to mention it looks awesome, and I think you may actually take damage to your suit as you fight. After this one brawl I had a tear across the chest of my bat suit.
