Having seen pictures of Catwoman and Harley Quinn in this game I have decided that if you play this you are a sad lonely pathetic bastard who wanks over computer games and should be sickenened by themselves.

Or you know, after actually playing the first and seeing footage of the second I think it looks awesome and have it on pre-order.

One of the above definitely

I'm all of the above, har-har! :D

In all seriousness, the first game was awesome even though the detective vision was a bit of a crutch for the weaker gamer (ie: me). Very much looking forward to Arkham City, when I saw the trailer for Catwoman I leapt in the air and shouted "Hot Sauce!"

Yeah, the bat vision thing was cool but it seemed a bit of a shame to use it too much as the game looked so stunning with it turned off

Minor quibble though

is it just me that thinks the first game was identical in gameplay to AssCreed ? Watching that trailer made me think 'oh cool you can destroy Borgia towers in this one too'
(This isn't a criticism and I'll be buying it no doubt )

Yeah it was noticed as featured in Gamespot;

Rocksteady's art director David Hego described the new detective mode as an "augmented reality mode", and game director Sefton Hill has also stated that although enemies and evidence can be seen more clearly, the navigational part is toned down as they found that some players completed Arkham Asylum using detective mode almost throughout the entire game.
