Listening to Ron and Fez right now, neither Fez nor East Side Dave were about to identify the Tumbler, the Batmobile from Batman Begins. Tsk-tsk. No matter, because you, too, can own a Go Kart replica of the vehicle in question.

Two weeks ahead of its worldwide launch, a demo of Eidos and WBIE’s Batman: Arkham Asylum will make its way to the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC this Friday. Look for the full-fledged title on August 28 worldwide. Hit the jump for the latest trailer and details on the demo.

Normally going for around $40 elsewhere, Amazon has the Wii version of LEGO Batman for just $20. It’s priced at $20 on all the other consoles, too, if you want a version other than the Wii version.

Assuming you own both the Xbox 360 and PS3 and you’ve been wondering which console you’re going to pick up Batman: Arkham Asylum for then know that Sony’s console has the exclusive on a playable Joker. He’ll be released via the PSN Store and can be played in Challenge Maps. Further details can be found in the June issue of PlayStation: The Official Magazine.

As a Batman super fan I’ve been keeping a watchful eye on the development of Batman: Arkham Asylum since it first leaked out last July. I like the direction that Batman has taken across his various media incarnations as of late. He’s a dark character with a dark past and the villains around him should be just as, if not, darker.

Late last night, GameTrailer got the scoop on the latest villain trailer for the game and it’s the Joker’s right-hand gal Harley Quinn. I won’t lie, she looks pretty sinister and somewhat arousing for a, you know, video game character. Check out her cart wheeling shenanigans after the jump.

Besides the Joker, the Dark Knight will be tormented by the ‘roid raging Bane in the upcoming Xbox 360, PS3 and PC title Batman: Arkham Asylum. Hit the jump for a quick video and some facts about Bane that you might not know.

Eidos and Warner Bros have just officially announced the CE of BAA and it’s a tad different than what Gamestop has on their website. Hit the jump to see what $100 will get you this summer.

In case you haven’t seen it. Sefton Hill, Game Director at Rocksteady, gives a thorough play-by-play of the “Silent Knight Challenge Room” with over six minutes of in-game video of the “Invisible Predator” mode.

Ah, finally the perfect sweatshirt for walking the streets at night. The $75 “Batman Full Image Full Zip-Up! Hoodie” by Lot 29 is sure to NOT creep anybody out when you zip the thing all the way up over your face and take the neighborhood watch concept to a whole new level.

(For the record – Batman would kick Superman’s ass.)

I was excited for Warner Bros., DC Comics and CobraMobile’s LEGO Batman: Gotham City Games for the iPhone. Then I finished it within 10 minutes.

Batman Begins and The Dark Knight’s executive producer Michael Uslan has just signed on for the next installment in what we’re all hoping is Nolan’s third Batman flick. Ulsan expects the new movie to hit theaters in 2011.

Just a heads up to the folks out in the crowd that “The Dark Knight” is back in theaters starting yesterday. Heh. If you didn’t get a chance to see it in IMAX when it came out last year then now’s your chance. Don’t let it pass you by, again.

…the opening sequence might look something like the above video. It’s been on YouTube for almost four months now, but you know what they say: “Videos on YouTube get blogged about almost four months after they get uploaded.”
