Battle over Batman: Arkham Asylum AA  N4G
PC News from N4G | Batman: Arkham Asylum
PC - Batman: Arkham Asylum - Battle over Batman: Arkham Asylum AA During recent days, you could see a fierce battle between AMD and Nvidia PR teams over Batman: Arkham Asylum and the fact that PhysX and AA works only when you run it on Nvidia GPUs, while on AMD cards the game worked, but without the in-game AA.

Nvidia's team worked with developers and designed the AA engine by themselves. That's a clear fact, and thus the game does indeed look better when paired up with an Nvidia GPU. On the other hand, AMD's PR team is adamant that Nvidia had a lot to do with the fact that the game simply doesn't like AMD GPUs. According to a statement made by AMD's Ian McNaughton, AMD did provide the developer with a solution, but it didn't make its way into the final release of the game.

Point of View gets Batman: Arkham Asylum bundle  N4G
PC News from N4G | Batman: Arkham Asylum
PC - Batman: Arkham Asylum - Point of View gets Batman: Arkham Asylum bundle Fudzilla: As we already wrote before, Nvidia is putting a lot of backing behind Batman: Arkham Asylum game, and according to what we have seen, this is the first game where PhysX actually matters and brings some benefit. It doesn't come as a surprise that Nvidia partners will start to announce their Batman: Arkham Asylum bundles and Point of View is the first one to get these to the European market, in the guise of Point of View's GTX 275 Joker Edition.

The card is basically the same old Nvidia Geforce GTX 275 with 240 stream processors, working at 633MHz for the core, 2268MHz for 896MB of GDDR3 memory, and 1404MHz for shaders. It has a 448-bit memory interface and supports DirectX 10, Shader Model 4.0, Nvidia SLI, and of course PhysX, something that this bundle is all about.

Detailed Look at the Games for Windows Live In-game Marketplace N4G
PC News from N4G | Batman: Arkham Asylum
PC - Batman: Arkham Asylum - Detailed Look at the Games for Windows Live In-game Marketplace via Aeropause.com

"One of the updates that was added in the last Games for Windows LIVE client update was the ability for developers to create an in-game marketplace front end. The first game that has seemed to take advantage of this is Batman: Arkham Asylum.

Thursday, we had the announced free DLC for Batman: Arkham Asylum released, so I decided to take the plunge and download the DLC via the in-game marketplace. While you can download it via the standalone client, I figured why leave the game if I can get it in there."
