Just a warning: several major gaming sites are running huge Batman: Arkham City spoilers this afternoon.
The sites running the spoiler in headline and front page pieces include Kotaku, Destructoid and 1UP.
We don’t know whether what they’re saying is true or not, but if it is (and not a red herring) it’s a ridiculous state of affairs, and – we’d guess – presumably part of some wider ranging stunt.
Regardless, even if it’s just something that happens midway into the game, this kind of thing would ruin the plot for some, we’re sure, and really isn’t terribly sensitive to fans.
Bizarre.
Goes without saying – don’t post the spoiler in the comments.

Why are they doing this doesn’t make any sense?

It called publicity, and if it was a spoiler they wouldn’t have shown it to journalists

I think this could have the opposite effect if they were trying to get more traffic on their sites cause i feel like i don’t want to go to those sites until i’ve played the game through so i wont be spoiled

Thanks for the info. Silly that they are doing it though.

If it was such a big spoiler, then why would they let journalists play this part of the game, seriously some people just dont think

But that’s like not showing film critics your movie in advance because they would just spill all the spoilers on their public blogs and such.
StevenHibs
Thats different, this is games, not movies

I may or may not know the spoiler. Do we find out about it shortly after the defeat of Mr Hammer, or is what i’m thinking of something else?
