Batman Arkham City has finally been released, and is every much the game fans of the original Arkham Asylum was hoping for if not more. Having played a couple of hours, it is awesome but can be overwhelming. The game is no longer confined to the Asylum and is based in a larger open world environment. The graphics are detailed and sets a standard the next GTA will have to meet. Controls are slightly different and takes a few minutes to readjust. 

Redeeming the items in the Collector's edition is easy, though I still hope Robin is available as a DLC for completeness since in the UK it has its own version. 

Its already one of the games of the year, and it will be interesting to see how Uncharted 3 compares.
