Right when you think that Rocksteady could do no more to make Arkham City any more tantalising than it already is comes direct word that the game will feature 40 hours worth of content.

"It takes over 25 hours to complete the main stories in Batman: Arkham City. To keep players engaged for this length of time, not only do the characters and the story need to progress, but the core mechanics of the game they are playing need to change and adapt as well", said director Sefton Hill, in an interview with The Guardian .

"The side missions in Batman: Arkham City are a good example. We have around 15 hours of story that's off the main path."

This is also why I'm glad they decided against multiplayer. And the collector's edition will be great too - they were asking what people wanted on the Facebook page a few months back. I voted for a real riddler trophy question mark. That would kick ass.

The Batarang they put into the Arkham Asylum collectors edition was rather woeful. I hope they don't make the same mistake again.

understatement!

Don't forget the Australian CE journal didn't have the leather binding either.
