It's time to be the goddamn Batman once again! Batman: Arkham City is out for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC and it's an absolutely amazing experience.
Other biggies this week include Payday: The Heist, Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One and Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure. What's looking sw33t to all of you?
Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

Eh, it's just a week off for me. Which is good, I need to start throwing all my money at November releases, and BF3 next week.
Not to mention I have a 170 dollar preorder to account for next month too. Maybe I'll sell one of those organs I don't use very often. Can you live without a liver? I hear those go for a lot of money nowadays, what with all the alcoholics and all.
I'm going to get Batman eventually but for due to its length I'm going to hold off for a while. I know I'm going to get sucked in and end up spending 40 hours on it whenever I pick it up in a month or two. Plus I want to get it on pc anyway. I'll get Payday the Heist to play with friends and the same with Ratchet and Clank. I hope they don't end up sucking.
Really trolling and flaming in the comments by Epic-Kx kind of sad.
If you were not a bigoted moron, you would know a few things about the online pass, for starters it is not required to play the game and is only a few bonus catwoman missions (and some reviewers said the Catwoman missions were the only part of the game they did not enjoy), next of all you get the pass from used copies at gamestop, you get it new from anywhere you get pass, you don't need the content to play the game tho, if you some how did not get the online pass and you really wanted the extra stuff because you enjoyed the game you could just buy it, Also a game is not a piece of shit just because it uses an online pass for 1 bloody thing, most games are doing it, it does not make the game bad. Sure the choice adding content that can only be gotten certain ways that does not auto come with the game is fairly stupid but that does not make the game bad. Although I'm fairly certain you're just trolling for the hell of it, even if the game came with the Catwoman stuff already on disc you would find something else to troll about it, stop being a bigot and if you're not going to stop being one go somewhere else.
I have Batman pre ordered. This game is the best Batman game ever. Why are people saying it sucks? Rock Smith is expensive, but I believe it must have an adapter to be able to hook up "Any Guitar" you want. Skylanders doesn't look good with the base station and all the character add ins. Why do I need a base station if I have a Kinect? Payday looks good and never heard of Dungeaon Defenders.
I definitely want Arkham City and I'm on the fence about Payday until I know it has splitscreen MP with online play when doing so(like halo 3 and l4d have). Other than that, I really dislike everything else. Expensive or just plain useless crap IMO.

I'm picking up my collector's edition of Batman tonight at midnight, haven't been to a midnight release in ages! Although it's really out of necessity as I won't have any time at all tomorrow to make it out to gamestop.
Also, after reading Jim's review of Skylanders, I kinda sorta really freaking want it! I'm going to try and hold off and use whatever Christmas money I get to buy it and a bunch of the figures.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Fuck Batman.
Fucking online passes to play campaign...
I don't care said Pierre because I'm French and buying it new anyway.
Problem?

That's nice, said Brice because idgaf about Arkham City or Batman in general. Too emo for my tastes.
Porblem?
"Batman for PC doesn't release this week... it was delayed."
That makes me very sad... but I could go for a payday the heist.

Hey, Batman-Layton. It's... almost too awesome for words. o_O
Batman can suck it..
