What, you thought that the trailer train would stop just because Batman: Arkham Asylum arrived on consoles last week? Why, that notion is almost as mad as The Joker himself.

Instead of focusing on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 editions, the latest trailer examines the September 15-due PC edition and the various PhysX effects--falling leaves, rustling papers, fog, more tiles per explosion, etc.--that NVIDIA's GeForce hardware adds.

And, as always, the PC version gets the best version. Anyone play the PC demo? Mouse/KB controls were perfect, as usual and as always.

Game looks incredible. Can't wait to pick it up on the 15th of Sept. Getting RF Guerilla and RE5 both on PC the same day as well as Aion this month too. :) League of Legends, Alpha Protocol, Dragon Age Origins, Borderlands, and Rogue Warrior all in Oct as well. Going to be a good end of the year.

    This wasn't a port it was simultaneously developed, the two week delay was to add polish and additional benefits like PhysX. Its cheaper to buy and looks better, it can be played on a desktop with a keyboard and mouse and on a HDTV with a 360 gamepad. Just except the fact that this game is better on the PC and stop being a console fanboy.

    Your fanboy glasses seem to obscure the fact that there have been some exceptional ports done lately. : jeremy_mccurdy
