Arkham Asylum has some great graphics when it's cranked....are you not a fan? Haven't tried Arkham City yet but from what I have seen they have improved on the GFX.

I think they're good texture wise, just a bit bland of phsx and lighting etc..

I've been enjoying the game so far. I've driven 100% or the roads on the first island (Ibiza) and now moved onto Hawaii. Once you get used to the arcade controls and handling, it's a lot of fun.

Was wondering if anyone was up for a trade?

I've got four coupons that I don't intend to use, and would like something else (coal would be great, though other coupons would be nice, depending); -25% Valve, -50% Beat Hazard Complete Pack, -33% Valve Complete Pack, and -33% Tropico 4.

Anyone interested in a trade just PM me your steam information. Thanks in advance.

Seems that is some kind of pass-it-around game, because you get 2 gift coupons when you get the game

As far as coupons go, I've got 25% off Valve, 50% off Psychonauts, 33% off Renegade Ops and 33% off THQ. Will trade two of them for one Holiday Coal. PM me for Steam contact (or just add me to your friends list).

So it's like the 1st one, but with more content. Fair enough. I'll hold off until I have a computer that can handle the graphics load.

Not really. Six pieces of coal equals six entries in the Jan. 2nd contest, which is worth it IMO, and crafting it has a very slim chance of ending up being a game (even slimmer for a game you want/don't have) and will most likely end up in a uninteresting coupon.

Anyone want a 3 day pass for monday night combat? 2 of them to give away.

(any chance I could be cheeky enough to ask mussels for the other ship?)
