Bad news, guys. Eidos Interactive and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment have both confirmed that the release of Batman: Arkham Asylum (PS3, Xbox 360, and PC) has indeed been pushed back.

There's still a silver lining, though. Contrary to the rumors we heard a couple of days ago, the game hasn't been slapped with a Q4 2009 release. It's just been rescheduled for an "end of summer" launch.

The press release noted that the additional time will allow the developers to ensure that Batman: Arkham Asylum will be "of the highest quality once it launches", which means bug squashing and general polish.

I don't know if I would be able to wait until Q4 2998. I would probably loose interest by then

I'm almost certain that end of summer is the same as beggining of fall. Wouldn't that make it Q4?

No, the year is split into 4 quarters. Each quarter containing 3 months. So if you count backwards starting from December youll realize that the article above is speaking of Q3.

No the loose was an accident >.<

I couldn't fix it cuz you have to wait a while before you can post again but I didn't feel like waiting just to correct myself.



And before anybody thinks I'm retarded the article originally said Q4 2998.
