Want to play as Catwoman in Batman: Arkham City? You'll have to buy the game new or pay for the privilege to do so, publisher Warner Bros. says. That's right, it's the on-disc single-player content that's being put behind an "online pass" style scheme.
Batman: Arkham City's VIP pass, the one-time use code required to unlock the playable Catwoman, will cost 800 Microsoft Points or about $10 USD if you aren't an "original purchaser" of the game. Eurogamer confirmed with Warner Bros. that Catwoman, "a unique character with her own story, moves, and weapons," is for those who buy the game new or pay for the unlock code.
Rocksteady's sequel to Batman: Arkham Asylum has two additional pay-to-play characters, Robin and Nightwing.
Batman: Arkham City comes to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 next week, with the PC version arriving sometime in November.
PC players are gonna rage about ME3 requiring Origin to even install ME3 for singleplayer, glad i own a 360 cuz thats bullshit
Yeah, PC gaming is starting to get fucked for all this.
i had originally planned to get Diablo 3 but said fuck that shit when it required you to be always online.
PC ME3 fans have a legit complaint there, i don't blame anyone who cancels a pre-order over that
I actually prefer PC gaming to console gaming. I just don't do it often because I don't have an adequate gaming computer anymore. COD4 was the shit on PC, 50-person free for all lobbies and then don't even get me started on the modded lobbies.
Went to Best Buy and did the preorder deal where they'll give me $100 in reward zone coupons if I preorder and buy five of the big titles that are coming out. Got Batman, Battlefield, Assassins Creed, Uncharted 3, and Saints Row. Wonder how many will I actually beat....Probably only Batman.
