If you're a batman fan and haven't tried this there's something wrong with you.

You mean like pre-ordering on Steam rather than grabbing on consoles?

There's nothing "wrong" with me. I just refuse to put up with bullshit.

I like Batman...I just spectate this game when my bf plays it! Then offer "constructive" criticism when he fails, even though I have never played it.

This is admittedly part of why I went ahead with Steam beyond the price difference. They'll either skip the code crap and put it on disc/in the main download, or it'll be WAY easier to deal with that bullshit compared to consoles since there won't be printing errors and I shouldn't need to jump through hoops to say "I OWN THE GAME NOW GIVE ME THE FUCKING CODE" if something does go wrong.

I meant that as no intention really, poor choice of words.

Don't mind Lard, he's kind of touchy about anything he doesn't like. It's a long list.

Coming from a guy whose very first post to me when I first joined the board was "Fuck you", that's rich.

You know what, I like you idea a lot and that's probably what I'm going to do.
Either Steam or I'll wait for a price drop along the road. Since new copies are not getting the code I might as well it used.

Actually I just saw the game will use Games for Windows Live and I, like many people, hate this. I will just get it used. I have already too much stuff here and on the way and I'm not the hyped for Batman for whatever reason.

If it helps, on Steam it's a Steamworks title, meaning your saves can be backed up to Steamcloud and thus you should be able to avoid the bullshit that was in Arkham Asylum where you had to dig around in your folders to copy your old AA file from. There's still Securom and crap though, but I tend not to fret about that unless it does stupid shit like limited activations PERIOD.

I just have to say that this game deserves GOTY. I know there are still a few heavy-hitters on the way but I can't see how anything can top this game. There, I said it.

The Harley's Revenge DLC is supposed to be "more than two hours", which is a bit disappointing, since we all know that translates into 90 minutes at best in real world time. I've nothing against the concept of DLC but does it have to be so insubstantial more often than not?
