Holy PR disaster Batman! After months of teasing us with the frisky feline Catwoman, Warner Brothers have added a pa55 system that will lock her out of the game for those who buy a pre-owned copy and, more importantly, anyone who does not have their Xbox or PS3 connected to the Internet. * +

Until now publishers have always used the argument that online passes are there to support server costs. Batman Arkham City has no online element so the pa55 confirms what weve known all along itsto stop gamers reselling or buying a pre-owned copy. * +

Those who do buy a pre-owned copy and wish to play as Catwoman will have to pay 7.99 for a pass. * +

Rocksteady have repeatedly stated that the Catwoman missions represent about ten percent of the game and you can play her character in the challenge rooms (but there are no Catwoman specific rooms). Batman Arkham City has a RRP of 49.99, ten percent of that is 4.99 rather ironic that Warner Brothers making you pay extra for a character who is a thief. * +

Warner Brothers and Rocksteady have yet to comment on the problems encountered by some when they finally managed to install Catwoman. Gamers from the UK are now reporting missing codes. * +

Warner bros and rocksteady are now requesting gamers send the following for codes that dont work : A dated proof of purchase (receipt, invoice) showing the purchase of a NEW copy of the game (not a rented or used copy, nor a copy purchased from eBay). Your gamertag for Xbox Live, or your profile for the PSN. Your email address. A scan or digital picture of the package and game disc(s). A scan or digital picture of the code sheet (both sides) * +
