Batman: Arkham Asylum delayed; ‘End of summer’ release now scheduled

Rumors are just that, but IGN has managed to wrestle an official statement containing some not-so-exciting news about everyone’s favorite upcoming movie-licensed videogame:

“Eidos Interactive and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment can today confirm that Batman: Arkham Asylum will be released at the end of summer 2009,” a spokesperson said. “This additional time will allow us to ensure Batman: Arkham Asylum is of the highest quality for gamers.”

Depending on how you look at it, this may not be a bad thing, however.  A wise man once said, “A delayed game will eventually be good, but a bad game is bad forever.”
