Figuring some clues from the latest reviews at the recent Microsoft pre-Game Developers Conference showcase ...

A St Patricks Holiday Crime

We’ve known for a while now that Calendar Man will be playing his part in Arkham City using IRL times as a dialogue trigger but the recent GDC preview has given us a glimpse of what exactly he’ll be talking about. It seems a visit to his cell on a holiday will spark a discussion on one of his crimes made that day. The demo saw him mumbling about St. Patrick's Day and his crime. Now we all know Rocksteady like to tease us with gradual info but this might be taking it too far, check back on March 17th 2012 to find out what Calendar Man really did that day! (Or have a fiddle with your systems date!)

Helicopter Grappling

“Nearby, a helicopter floats over a hotspot in the city. Batman seizes the opportunity to grapple up towards the helicopter and grab onto its landing struts. As the helicopter flies over Arkham City, you can use Batman's detective vision to look down and find other things to do whether it's finding more Riddler trophies (specifically designated enemies will reveal trophy locations if you are able to interrogate them) or saving innocent civilians that have somehow found their way into the madhouse.” - Gamespot

New Voice Actors

“Fans of Batman: The Animated Series may be disappointed to hear that neither Richard "Bull from Night Court" Moll nor Adrienne "That Girl From The Fog" Barbeau will be reprising their roles as Two-Face and Catwoman, respectively. Interestingly, Barbeau was in Arkham Asylum, as one of the asylum physicians Batman rescues.

Surprisingly, Arleen Sorkin did not provide the voice for Harley Quinn in the demo we saw, despite being in Arkham Asylum. When pressed, we were given a stone cold "no comment" on whether this would be true in the final game. The actress we heard was a pretty good imitation, but obviously not the real thing.” - 1UP

Answer Distress Signals

It wasn’t only Catwoman that needed saving during the demo playthrough, while exploring the city in detective mode you will occasionally receive a message claiming that a “Person in Distress” has been located. This could possibly be coming from your GCPD dispatch broadcast you now have access to. Accepting the distress call will open up a new quest path.

A GDC Suprise

“The Arkham City team is saving one surprise for Game Developers Conference next week. We don't know what it is, but we know that it involves radio frequencies. We were shown a hand-painted billboard in the game that provided a clue, and read as follows: Turn on and tune in before someone checks out: 275.00 325.00.” - 1UP

Source.

Giant Bomb (5/5): "Getting another chance to use Batman's considerable combat talents as you engage in one of the best fighting systems going today is a joy. The city looks terrific, like it's one step away from just bursting into flames as criminals crawl across every single surface doing... whatever it is that criminals do when they're locked in a city-shaped prison."

Game Informer (100/100): "The size of the game is daunting. I still have a ways to go to reach 100 percent, but I wouldn't be surprised if I have invested over 60 hours so far. Throw in the new game plus and a dizzying number of combat challenges for both Batman and his feline friend and this game could be one of the biggest and most enjoyable time sinks of the year."

IGN (95/100): "Batman: Arkham City isn't perfect, but listing the little things I didn't like gets in the way of all the stuff I adored. The voice acting, the challenges, the amazing opening, the unbelievable ending and the feeling of being the Dark Knight -- these are the things that standout looking back. I've beaten this thing twice and still want to call in sick and chase Riddler Trophies. "

Eurogamer (90/100): "If it's lacking something, it's surprise. Arkham City has nothing that beats the first game's brilliant unveilings and fourth-wall mind-tricks (although it has a go at an equivalent) and it can't trump the central, crucial realization that somebody had finally made a Batman game that was enriched by its license rather than subtly crippled by it. Instead, though, you get refinement: better bosses, slicker animation, and more to think about on a second-to-second basis."

12-15 hours. But I am only 35% done the game. There's so much more to do/explore.
