I’m sad that I wont be getting this game this week. Especially that best buy has a good offer on it. *sigh*

Joker would probably be the main reason. And well, PS3 is the Dark knight of Consoles.

for 38$ new I bought it for my PS3 even though I already have it for free on my xbox. I love the game and wanted to support these dev’s so I picked it up for my ps3.

Well I like Home. And I got a Batcave personal space as well as the joker content.

Good news , my guess is joker content due to the popularit of the Joker in the recent Bat flick too.

Everyone knows it’s the Joker Content and you can’t blame the people because it looks freakin sweet. The only reason I haven’t gone out and gottin this title is because I played the Demo and realized that it was gonna take over my world and invade my dreams and I’m not really feeling like making that kind of commitment right now, lol. But seriously, if and when I do go pick up my next AAA title this one with been on the top of the list. The PSN titles and movies keep settin me back.

I think it’s the Joker content.

The Joker content is obviously why the PS3 copy has pulled ahead. I’m sure people are walking in and picking up PS3 Slims with a copy of Batman:AA.

As for the XBOX360 coming in a close second, of course it is close! What the hell else came out this week? MS gamers need something new to play too.

I think playing Joker has alot to do with it, also getting a Batcave for home. and Also alot of new people picking up the new Ps3 120gb system are getting the game.

Dont forget toyRus was giving away 30 dollar gift cards ( as a rewards member) if you werent a member you got 20 dollars.

there were alot of good deals going on.

I bought this for the PS3… great purchase, I can see why it outdid the Xbox version… It had more features. Thought that was kinda obvious but whatever.

When I went to GameStop for the midnight launch, the PS3 version was almost sold out while the store had hundreds of copies of the Xbox 360 version. Although I asked the store manager if they received more Xbox 360 versions than PS3 versions, he had…but he also told me that the PS3 version was selling way better.

I think PS3slim has something to do with this, along with the content.
as for most multiplatform based we’ve seen Xbox360 version have a larger sale rate because the system has a larger install rate. but now with more people buying PS3′s we may see this shift, although with the PS3slim just coming out and everyone now buying PS3s I don’t think we’ll see that shift just yet. I think we can blame this all on the content. nice grab Sony.

Check out LensofTruth’s comparison.

The reason for chosing PS3 is marginal. But the voting – which is usually Tie or Xbox – favors PS3.

For multi-platform games, my MO is to buy the PS3 unless there is multi-player.

Agreed all around. Bought it, beat it, love it. Not the longest game in the world, but what is there is done top notch. After playing the full game, it takes a little getting used to controlling the joker in the challenges, he’s quite different. His “detective mode” glasses can only be equipped while standing, you can’t move with them on. No grappling hook, but he has unique gadgets, like remote control explosive chattering teeth, and a one shot one kill gun. It definitely requires a different strategy getting through them with him, and its cool that when you lose batman basically tells you that you suck.
