    Indeed it is. I don't know how much of that is true, but Lovecraft certainly DID write about Arkham. And it pre-dates Batman's use of the name.

        Aw man a whole year to wait dam but doe this mean that Gotham City get turned in to an Arkham City by the Joker if so then it does make a perfect way to have a sandbox game.

              I can't wait. I'm really hoping it's Co-op with Catwoman or even if she's playable at certain points!

                    I just brought the GOTY edition brand new... and it was marked $20 less than the standard edition. No idea why. Awesome game, took long enough for me to pick it up.

                      I'm right there with u, I don't like games to put co-op just for the sake of it, just because EVERY game SEEMS to need co-op now adays

                        It's random, I guess.

                        The co-op thing... It's just one thing I would like to see. Not a must. I just think that would be fun.

                            According to blog-friendly readers of the latest edition of US mag GameInformer, the title sees Two-Face attempting to assisinate Catwoman to gain the respect of Gotham's criminal network.

                            Arkham City is created by former (yes, former) Mayor Quincy Sharp - who walls off part of the city's slums.

                            Our favourite new pearl of wisdom is that Batman himself starts the game with all of the gadgets he had when he finished Arkham Asylum - plus a trademark smoke bomb. Jolly good.

                            Story details are:

                            - Quincy Sharp is no running for mayor.
                            - Arkham Asylum and Black Gate Prison are unfit to hold inmates.
                            - Quincy Sharp buys off part of the slums and walls it off, creating Arkham City.
                            - Hugo Strange is in charge of Arkham City.
                            - Two-Face plans to execute Catwoman to gain respect of inmates.
                            - The overdose of venom may not be what's wrong with the Joker.

                            Gameplay details are:

                            - You are now able to counter two attacks at once.
                            - More puzzles
                            - All gadgets included in the first game are available from the start.
                            - Side missions now feature in the game.
                            - Gangs roam Arkham City, these are recorded in Batman's criminal database.
                            - You find people who work for Ridler to find Ridler challenges.
                            - Batman has his smoke bomb

                            Warner Bros revealed Batman: Arkham City artwork and story details last week. The game will be out in 2011.
                            I think I just wet myself

                            oh and some more info:

                            It takes place 1 year after the events of AA and Quincy Sharp has taking credit for stopping the joker at arkham asylum.Sharp buys up a large swath of gotham;s slums and walls it off, stocking the perimter with highly trained armed mercenaries from an outfit named Tyger. all prisoners are transported to this new facility dubbed "arkham city" There is only one rule in AC under threat of death - Don't try to escape ( so these criminals and super villians are free to roam AC with no rules or laws.

                            Batman has been watching AC for months and has been looking for an excuse to get inside the prison, Recently admitted Two face needs to get respect in the city, so he decides to do that by kidnapping catwoman and publicly executing her, that's batman's cue, and that's the beginning of the game

                            oh and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VC7vYt46vJ0

                            RIDDLER UPDATE:

                            The riddles are going to be much more challenging they said this time. In Detective mode some people will show up in green... This shows their allegiance to the Riddler. You can interrogate these thugs to find out info on the Riddler.

                                some dialogues directly taken from game:

                                Batman interrogating a riddler thug:

                                He grabs the thug by the neck

                                "Riddler - what's he up to?"

                                "Oh crap, okay, okay! I just help him out, There's a bunch of us. We give him info and he doesn't put us in those crazy machines of his."

                                "It's been a pleasure" Batman growls before knocking the informant out.


                                Batman and Zsasz ( Also, new intimidation feature)

                                Batman hears a payphone ringing with a group of prisoners huddled around it. They speak about an urban legend about if you answer a payphone you die after. Batman jumps down and uses his taunt:

                                "You're all going down," Batman threatens.

                                "It's batman! Get out of here!" A prisoner shouts.

                                Everyone screams without a fight and batman strolls up to the still ringing phone. he picks it up.

                                "Hello, Batman. Do you recognize my voice?"

                                "Zsasz," he replies.


                                Batman and Harley

                                "Coming through, B-man! as she charges him with a series of handsprings and flips. batman sidesteps her.

                                "Let the lady go, batfreak, or the doctors all get a bullet in the head" warns one of several joker members.

                                " I think you should do what he says, it would be a shame to get blood all over my new outfit" says harley
                                Batman saving catwoman from two face? That's exactly how it begins.:

                                "Where is she, Alfred?" Batman asks.
                                "Miss Kyle was last seen in the vicinity of the solomon Wayne Courthouse," replies his faithful butler
                                "That's where Two-Face has been setting up camp"
                                "Let's hope she is still in one piece when you find her. Mr. Dent's fascination with the number two could prove fatal to Catwoman."


                                In a nutshell: Batman gets to catwoman, she is dangling above a vat of acid, chained up.
                                "You certainly know how to keep a girl hanging, Harv." Catwoman says. "Hey, have you had some work done?

                                Two face strikes her across the face

                                "That's for spying on us. No one spies on us." He threatens.

                                "I'm sorry. I've been a bad kitty." she teases "untie me and I'll make it up to you."

                                "Let's see if the coin thinks you're telling the truth" Two face snarls. "The court is now in session"

                                Batman beats up thugs and confronts two face

                                With all his goons out of commission, Two-Face makes one final play. "Objection," he says before shooting batman. "Overruled." With batman out of the picture, he turns to catwoman.

                                "Heads or tails kitty cat?"

                                "Which one ends with me getting out of here alive?" she asks

                                Two face flips the coin and the scarred side lands facing up. "Not this one. Time to die."

                                "I vote for a stay of execution." catwoman says as she claws the ropes off her wrist and slashes him in the face. Two face recoils in pain catwoman frees her legs and gets right side up. A grappling hook fired from nowhere at two face and soon enough he's the one dangling above the acid.

                                "I thought it was only cats who had nine lives," Catwoman says as batman walks into view " anyone ever tell you you're full of surprises?"

                                "Figured you could use my help, Selina " He replies

                                "You're right, think I chipped a nail back there"

                                "Funny"

                                "So what do you need mr. detective? I'm guessing it's something to do with our friend here and how he fits into what professor strange has cooking"

                                "What do you know, selina?"

                                "Not much. no one knows anything about the mystery man. It's like he never existed before sharp hired him. But there is definitely something going on with him and Joker"

                                "that's not what I wanted to hear"

                                "It gets worse, the clown has a plan to destroy gotham and take you out at the same time. You should get out of here, Leave Joker. He'll be dead soon.

                                "I can't. He's even more dangerous when backed into a corner."

                                As if on cue, a green laser dot traces its way up catwoman's snug yet tactical suit. Next we see her in the crosshairs and hear a familiar voice. "Twinkle, twinkle, little bat, Watch me kill your favorite cat." Joker's disembodied voice tried to burst out into his trademark maniacal laughter but he's cut short by a violent coughing fit.

                                "The ex-district attorney here said something about..." Catwoman says before batman pulls her out of the way of joker's bullet. "What the hell?"

                                "You're not safe here. No one is," Batman warns as he presses her against a wall.

                                "Nine lives, remember?" Catwoman quips as she cracks her whip up into the rafters of the courthouse, pulls herself up, and sneaks off into the night.
