  • pinche gordo in english fucking fat

  • WTF since the collectors edidion was released everyone is complaining about the baterang IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE USED

  • I think this Collector edition is amazing!

  • I sharpened my batarang lol. nice vid.

  • if u know someone who can do it the plastic batarang is a good template to cut your own metal one.

  • is the case for the game a steelbook case ?

  • This is a great idea for a show, but the still camera makes it a bit annoying. Maybe if the camera was over your shoulder, or someone else could film you doing it, it'd be much better. I couldn't get a good look at the batarang :(

    How's the extras DVD?

  • Hard to believe the UK version of Batman Collectors Edition is so watered down compared to the US. im thinking of getting it anyway as i love the game.

  • it seems that the batarang forms a single piece with the stand, so it ins't actually possible to detach the batarang from the stand. i'm okay with that since I will use it only to decorate my shelf, but those who boght this edition solely for the batarang and are dissapointed with the fact of it being of scratched plastic and non-detachable can always use it as a template for a metal, smooth and separate batarang.

  • At least you got the Batarang. Just be happy they gave you one, didn't bother me at all that it was plastic.

  • alex. i KNOW u were pissed about that batarang.....u think u kould try to kontact ubisoft and ask em why theyre batatarang is so krappy?

  • batarang was supposed to be scratch witch i find rather retarded

  • Hey Alex, just a quick question, I noticed that recently you've started buying multiplats for the PS3 rather than the X360 (i.e. Batman, NFS Shift), why is that? I thought almost all PS360 owners bought multiplats exclusively for the 360.

  • Good question actually. I bought Batman on the PS3 because of the Joker content, and NFS Shift because there are a large variety of steering wheels available on the PS3. I purchased The Beatles Rock Band on the 360 since all my instruments are there -- so in other words, it depends on what game it is and what bonuses they have.

  • Ah, I see. Jumped the gun a bit with that question there, posting it before I saw the part of the video where you explained the part about the Joker.

  • @gamesandme your voice looked dubbed

  • Jecht is really overpowering on the real doe, that guy hits like a mack truck, but you'll see when you play it. He's one of my main's the rest being Cloud of Darkness and Golbez.

  • i took my batarang and i painted the edges a metallic silver and glossed the rest of it, so it looks metal. then i took some red color and made drops of blood on one end. it looks amazing now. as for the journal, i love it.

  • You have a video of it? If you do, post it as a video response and I'll approve it.

  • sure. ill make a vid soon.

  • oooo, i want to get that

  • woot PS3 FTW

  • So, where's detail batarang video? :)

  • This Game IS AMAZING :D

  • strategy guide? O_o i got the CE of Arkham Asylum for 360 and i didn't get a strategy guide...

  • I don't mind the plastic batarang, they're obviously not going to try to get sued over a metal batarang getting stuck in some idiotic kids eye. Also I pulled mine off the stand and it attaches back on just nicely.

  • how did you get it off!!!

  • Use a flat head screwdriver! It's quite easy

  • Agreed, but I was mainly proposing if they'd have painted the edge of the batarang silver that could've been a good compromise. Alas, they didn't and even then, the game is awesome so it's no loss in my book. I'm over it!

  • Alex just wanted to tell you something and ask you a question, first the Batman Arkham Asylum CE's batarang was meant to have the scratches on it to make it seem like batman used it himself, secondly, does the batarang come off the stand? please respond to my question, Thanx

  • The batarang doesn't come off the stand. However, with a flathead you can probably move the latch so you can dislodge the batarang off of the stand.

  • man that sucks!when i got my dissidia it didn't come with the bad guy cover on the inside of the case!

  • Did you pre-order it? Or did you possibly get a 2nd print?

  • The German Edition really SUCKS! poor and cheap plastic batarang with ugly scratches on it... No Slipcase and i dont know why the made this book about the characters. U can read everythink about the characters in the game...?!?! And last but not least 139 for this stupid Edition? hahahaha hell no! But the american looks much better!

  • i got it because im a HUGE batman fan so it goes along with the rest of my b-man shit!

  • you mean your action figures lol

  • How far are you in the game?

  • lol i beat it 100% the first day on hard mode and now im still workin my way on leaderboards on the joker!

  • thnx alex u just saved me 40 bucks.... my local gstop had some of these available and i was gonna get it tomorrow... thanks to this video im sticking to regular edition :) batarang in plastic is not so fantastic

  • Thanks! The game's great otherwise though... that definitely shouldn't be missed

  • you hater of the 3? instant fail

  • How is that an instant fail ?

  • If by instant fail you mean I got the Joker as a playable character, the Dem Bones and Crime Alley maps, yes - I suppose getting it for the PS3 is an instant fail.

  • do they give you the optional cover when you buy the game?

  • Dissidia? Yes. Both of them.

  • man, if the american version was cheap then you just check out the uk/europe one, no big ass box(which is good or bad depending on how you look at it) no leather bind case for the artbook, and the game comes in the special packing(the wood case) BUT NO SLIPCASE OF THE GAME! ITS JUST A WOODEN CASE! DO YOU KNOW HOW THAT LOOKS COMPARED TO THE REST OF YOUR PS3 GAMES?

  • Like a wooden PS3 case?

    Same with the inFamous special edition.

  • it was originally metal but they were afraid people were going to take it off and use it for real and it has scratches to make it appear it has been used by batman

  • lol i accidentely snapped the batarang off the stand, but i can put it back on, so no biggy, plus i only got the crime alley challenge, no bones challenge WTF

  • really is it true

  • yup, if u turn it around ull see at the back of the grey thing there should be a black thing sticking out holding the batarang, ijust pulled that

  • 4,800th view

  • yay plastic that was probably recycled yay!!! jk

  • Yea, I'm over the whole thing. I'm playing through the game a 2nd time now on hard and I'm trying to 100% it. Thank goodness the game's better than the collector's edition

  • personally i think this collectors is a joke.

    i was really dissapointed with this. not worth the money.

  • Arkham Asylum is a really cool game, but I thought Dissidia sucked. I hate grid games. Maybe it'll be better when I can play against some other people though, but I doubt it.

  • Dissidia takes a while to get used to. Honestly, I'm no fan of SRPGs but the fighting was enough for me to keep going back. Unfortunately, Ted (another gamesandme member) borrowed it. Batman's great... I'm trying to 100% it right now - and I normally don't do that with my games! Last game I did that with was Mass Effect 2.

  • i would if i can put i dont have a cam sorry

  • who cares about if the batrang is plastic ! i dont and mine was scratched too idk why

  • The scratches are on as an effect that Batman has used it lol

  • Yeah, as if we're gonna believe that., Fuck Eidos man.

  • YAY! Unboxing is back!Those are some sweet packages Alex!On a side note I wanted to personally thank you for(along with motherwii) being the inspiration for my Ebay unboxing vids.

  • I saw :) Thanks for watching and hope to see more of you around the chat and forums :D

  • did u guys hear about the modern warfare 2 controllers

  • Yea, we talked about it on one of our podcasts. Mad Catz is allegedly making them.

  • liked the video whats ur psn

  • EternityInBlack on both PSN and 360. There's more than one person that shares this account.

  • anyway by xmas you'll just be able to get the collector's edition for the same price as the standard edition. great vid, most others don't give you a good look of the contents of it.

  • I wonder if that'll be the same thing with the COD:MW2 Prestige Edition since they're more conservative when they're producting that stuff -- and yea, I'm sure the local Fry's Electronics will have tons of these. In fact, those Halo 3 cat helmet editions are still available there right now!

  • if anyone didn't peo-order don't freak out over the downloadable challenge maps, there just going to be on psn and xbox live in a few months.

  • Yea, they'll probably release it paid. I think it's a way that Eidos is trying to curb used sales... you know, how if you buy it used the code is already used, etc. I wonder how much they'll price it though?

  • OMG!!! Are you freakin' kidding me? What were you thinking? You have been unboxing some final fantasy sh1t on top of boxed Batman game?!?! So fuck1ng exciting! Have some respect for Satan's sake...

  • It was a deliberate choice :D Did you get either game at least? Because they're both awesome!

  • Whats that irobot thing?

  • It's a robot vacuum! iRobot Roomba. Go Youtube it!

  • im dissapointed too n the joker challenge is free at da playstation store rite now :) its looks like a plastic toy from a lil cheap shop for like 3 bucks :(

  • Well HyperDirector just shared that there's an actual metal one online. I might consider getting it!

  • they shoudl do the cover thing with ps3 as well.. first time i ever saw that lil kool trick or watever was when i bought Kill Bill 1 & 2 n found out LATER that i could do that ... pretty kool n it should be done for every single ps3 game

  • Yea the additional covers would be awesome. From what I remember Capcom released huge PDFs of the Okami cover since they messed up and "stole" the cover from IGN's images (it had the IGN watermark)... but nothing beats a good old cardboard slip cover!

  • 'Lol its so not worth it to buy the collector's edtion i saw little kids with their moms at midnight buying the $100 editions poor kids only thing i cared for was the crime alley map and another map as well

  • Have you tried the challenge rooms yet? I've just been plugging through the single player campaign and it's gotten me hooked!

  • I got lucky cause I saw how bad the batarang looked when I bought my copy and returned it back to the gamestop cause I thought it defective. It looked like cheap machine marks on my batarang, I was so disappointed with the packaging it not even being metal (come on eidos even GTA4 gave us a metal case) the employee let me return it and gave me the difference for a regular copy of the game.Save 40$ and just buy the normal copy. if you want a batarang there is metal replicas online for 40 bucks.

  • Wow, good to know that there's metal replicas for the amount of the collector's edition! Thanks for sharing! :D

  • Comment removed

  • i got the dissidia psp bundle today. The psp has no art work on the back like the japan dissidia bundle

  • You got a video of it? If you post it and use it as a video response I'll approve it!

  • The batarang is cheap but it does make for a cool display item. It should have been metal, detachable and without scratches.

  • I agree with that , it was originally supposed to be metal but due to consideration they decided to change it to plastic becuz of beliefs that little kids would throw it at stuff. So, thankyou todays youth for being stupid.

  • So it WAS metal at one point. Darn kids these days. Oh well, that doesn't stop me from using it as a prop in the next video :D

  • There's a weak plastic hook that prevents anyone from disassembling the batarang from the stand, but nothing a flat-head can't fix ;)

  • they should have a special case for the actual game like modern warfare 2 has hardened

  • It would've been cool - maybe even a leather bound case - something new. Either way, it's not bad. The slipcase feels special.

  • So r u saing not to buy the batman collectors edition

  • I'm saying based off of what I showed, make a decision what version you'd get. Personally, I didn't prefer it. But the quality of the batarang may or may not matter to some - and that the making of disc and the arkham journal helped make the package a bit more bearable.

  • Thanks

  • the action figures are 20$ and barley an inch tall (at least the ones i saw)

  • You're talking about the Dissidia ones I gather?

  • yup

  • wal mart give 2 dlc

  • Which 2 DLC? Because the PS3 version has Joker, and all first prints of the game have Dem Bones and Crime Alley included.

  • the jokers one was free on the psn, i got the bones and crime alley...and the wal mart exclusive the bat armor

  • walmart exclusive my ass lol

    You get the batman armor when you collect all 240 riddler challenges.

  • By the way, if you have a review of Dissidia or Batman: Arkham Asylum, do a video response to this video and I'll approve it!

  • there both pretty good, in batman im barely got to my batmobile to get the explosive gel, and in dissidia, i played throughout the warrior of light's tutorial

  • yea i'm working on the DO VII (whatever that means) in Dissidia with Cloud. The presentation is awesome. We're planning to show off both games in our live stream this Sunday. Check out our profile - we got all the links there!

  • lol, im glad im not the only one who got both of them in the midnight release lol

  • How are you liking either game?

  • My dad wont buy the bundle :(

  • That's unfortunate. But at least you got the game right?

  • I wish................ my psp broke 2 years ago

  • Oh i thought by bundle you meant Batman. You meant the PSP Dissidia bundle!

  • Yeah i cant find any unboxings on YT

  • asstard. stop making your dad pay for your enjoyment. get a job. even if your young mow lawns. dont make him pay, and be happy with what you get and don't complain that you dont get the best of everything.

  • no shit dumbass now shut the fuck up and mind your own business

  • Yo does the batarang even remove from the stand or is it one of those cheap ass statue toys? This looks really disappointing for a 100 dollar value. Maybe 70-75, but not 100. Major rip-off. Glad you gave us the review. Thanks dude and please anwser my question if you can.

  • Yea, the batarang is attached to the stand - and the only way to remove it is by force. I intend to use a lot of force to remove the batarang from the stand as I want to use it as a prop in a future Unboxed video :D

  • Awesome Alex. Very Awesome

  • Thanks!

  • OMFG I NEED THIS DISSIDIA

  • Yes! It's awesome! A great marriage of RPGs and fighting games!

  • i was deciding to get ce or regular edition, im definetly getting the regular edition the only cool thing was the behind the scenes and thats not worth 100 dollars. thanks so much!

  • You're welcome! Yea, I'm sure someone will post the behind the scenes somewhere... not specifying where :D

  • I just got the normal version of Arkham for xbox for $35!!

  • Hook up your fellow Youtube gamers up! Where'd you get it?

  • Im sure they did.

  • Because publishers have to stop and show their games at E3, which throws off their development schedule by a month -- usually, games that come out in July are in the approval process the month before they come out and are usually released a month later, barring any bugs or crashes.

  • wait for FFD alternate covers did you pre order that or if you buy it in stores with out pre ordering it it comes with it?

  • I pre-ordered Dissidia, so I'm not sure of the DFF covers are for pre-orders only. If you're nice to your local GameStop i'm sure they can just hand you the cover

  • Check out my review of the coll edition I really don't think anyone should buy it

  • Post it as a video response to this and I'll approve it!

  • man i wanted to get batman AA collectors edition but i was to late and i couldint pre order collectors edition at gamestop. thats total bull@^&#.

  • Maybe other GameStops have extras?

  • yay ps3

  • Kinda gutted it wasnt metal , but the big box it comes in and all the other stuff you get is great because im a huge batman fan. BUT... if it was more than £60 then i would of got the normal version. good video

  • Thanks! The game is well worth the purchase, regardless of what version you get. It's a great way to kick off the holiday season!

  • After seeing the Batman CE unboxing I think I will skip the CE afterall and just go for the regular edition.

  • Either way, Batman Arkham Asylum shouldn't be missed. It's a great game with some great action and stealth elements and the game itself is worth the wait.

  • well after seeing all the unboxing of the collector's edition. I'll just stick to my ps3 normal copy

  • The game's good, regardless what edition people get.

  • I've purchased my collector edition of Batman AA about 2 months ago and now im really dissapointed a plastic batarang?! i was hoping for something a bit more deadly

  • I think we all were haha

  • its like a collectable, like the master cheif helmet, or the Call of Duty 5 bottle, and the Assassin's creed toy

    too bad i don't have any of that

  • You know if you live near a Fry's Electronics that they still have those Master Chief cat helmet editions. The local GameStop here still has the collector's edition for Assassin's Creed.

  • I'm going to use the batarang in my next unboxing video. Planning to rip it off of the stand and use it as a prop. Good times.

  • great video alex! I am so looking foward to both games

  • You won't be disappointed!

  • what 100$ for a plastic kids toy WTF!?

  • It's not even a toy. It's firmly attached to the stand >_>

  • Nope! But I know what you mean :D

  • Great episode!

  • Thanks :D

  • god dammit. D:

    Dissidia looks sooo amazing. I wish they did a full fleshed out console version, or atleast have a release on the DS as well. I would pick up a PSP just to play this game, but I don't have the money.

  • Well if you get one of the new PSPs you can hook this up to your TV? :)

  • Hello Alex nice vid :D

  • Thanks! Pop into the chatroom sometime. Haven't seen you in a long while!

  • when i get in no one is there loL :D

  • Just as a general question: If you played the demo for Batman Arkham Asylum and are playing through the full game - does the full game meet or exceed your expectations so far?

  • Wow it's supposed to be scratched to seem like Batman has used it. Im not saying i like it being plastic or anything, but the scratches are there for a reason, not because of faulty manufacturing.

  • Yea, I get the point of it. Either way, it's not a big loss. I would've paid for the same amount for the "Making Of" disc and the faux leather inmate dossiers. I'm a sucker for those types of things. Someone in the comments mentioned that COD:MW2 won't have a "Making Of" featurette, which is unfortunate but the art book is a nice treat.

  • sorry I made myself sound like an asshole, I think the Batarang looks okay, I mean it's not like people are gong to be throwing it or anything, it's for display. Although I do want to try to take it off the stand, can you do that?

  • No you can't take it off of the stand, but that won't stop me. I wanna use it as a prop for the next Unboxing video in the upcoming weeks LOL

  • nice ha, maybe I can cut the stand off right where the batarang meets it, or is it to riskey?

  • It's not infront of me, but I'm assuming that the stand is attached to the innards of the batarang and its glued together there. I know from memory that that's what it looked like, but I'll go check when I get home.

  • Wait you didn't get the crime alley challenge map code? It's supossed to come with all the collectors editions

  • The Joker challenge map is actually a download on PSN. If you're talking about the "dem bones" pack, its the Batman Arkham Asylum sticker (it's on the back)

  • wow , cool u got dissidia so fast, and unboxed it for fast, sub for that !

  • I did it because I know people wanted to see Batman, but Dissidia is also a fun game for people who don't have a PS3 or 360 to play the game.

  • Who cares if its, plastic its good the way it is.

  • Before the text limit actually hit, I was going to say that it's the game that really matters and... I gotta say... it took me an hour to make this video and it was an awesome excuse for me to play Batman: Arkham Asylum. Definitely a good game to start the holiday season off regardless of whatever version people get!

  • Just for clarification, the reason why I was disappointed with the batarang isn't necessary just because it was plastic, but also because there's really no trim or anything... it's just plain plastic all around with tons of scratches on it. Otherwise, the things that come with the batarang as mentioned - the making of, the Arkham journal, and the slip case, make it worth the purchase.

  • i have to go to Gamestop today to get my covers. but i got both of them at midnight last night as well.
