Battle, ambush and race your way to leaderboard domination in bigger and improved challenge mode.

The latest news from Rocksteady Studios is that Batman Arkham City will be five times bigger than Arkhum Asylum, so no suprises to fans that the roaming areas have been expanded to give more character freedom and cure one of the few faults of the original game Arkham Asylum, one of the best gaming titles to be released to date.

Great news is the return of the challenge mode, after you complete the campaign mode and collect all the Riddler trophies, a more expansive and competitive challenge mode awaits to play as either the Batman, Catwoman or Robin and we all give thanks to the developers for including these playable characters free of charge and resisting the temptation to charge us for the extra content. I wouldn’t be surprised if a villains pack was available to download some time after release to compete in challenge mode but that’s just me thinking of how they’re going to hit our pockets and keep the game fresh during some really major release titles in the months after this baby hits shelves, pure speculation on my behalf.

"I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?" - Clint Eastwood

That's what Harvey 'Two-Face' Dent appears to be saying to us in this new promo shot from the sequel to Rocksteady's 2009 (was it really that long ago?) smash hit Arkham Asylum; Arkaham City.

That's right folks!! Here's yet another variation on previous posts I've been posting... [Insert number] to Wacth has now been assimilated into the ever burgeoning GONZO/Sidekick sub-brand - whatever that means!

But wha' i' was righ' was that I was prepping for a usual News Blast (thanks x360a!!) when I noticed that much of the news took the form of some truly awesome trailers! So I changed the news reader pic for a director portrait and away we go!

Ladies and gents, we have within, the cream of the trailers relased from the past 7 days. I think the E3 uber-games show in LA being just around the corner is the reason for the slew but who are we to complain?!? Just soak it all up and enjoy, Roy!

Each time I think about Batman Arkham City, I always end up feeling glum because it's not out until Autumn 2011... But before that glum feeling sets in I have the euphoria of excitement that always washes over me following the reveal of details for this game.

The latest on the grapevine comes from interviews in Official Playstation Magazine UK and PSM3 magazine where Sefton Hill, co-founder of Rocksteady, has been shooting his mouth off...

Autumn 2011 is miles away. And it feels even further away after you've seen the screenshots that follow, allegedly from Rocksteady's super-sequel, Batman: Arkham City.

Interweb sources are claiming that the pics have come from this Flickr account. However, link through to that accounts and all you get now is the picture that we kicked off with above... The game is afoot!

Anyways, source aside, feast your eyes on the 20 glorious shots when you click through to read more.
