The first in-game screenshots from Batman: Arkham City have surfaced and they are stunning.
Batman: Arkham City, the sure to be Game of the Year contender for 2011, was revealed recently in the September issue of Game Informer magazine. Now we get to see our first glimpse of in-game footage thanks to a NeoGaf post who pulled the images from a Flickr account. The images have not been confirmed as real by Rocksteady yet, but they look pretty convincing.
The unconfirmed first images from Batman: Arkham City give us a lot in-game shots that show an incredible amount of detail. We get to see shots of Catwoman, Two-Face, and the new and improved Harley Quinn. They also show off some new combat moves that look awesome and the updated detective mode is also included. The screens are bitter sweet because they look amazing but at the same it only makes Arkham City's release seem that much farther away.
Batman: Arkham City doesn't have an official release date other than Q3 2011 but we do know it will be released on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and the PC. Check out the amazing screenshots in our Batman: Arkham City gallery.

We have a little over two months before Rock Band 3 is released and people are instantly turned into professional musicians overnight.

Bungie's last installment in the Halo universe has been leaked as Halo: Reach has spilled out onto the Internet.
The Halo franchise has had a long history of leaks which should be taken as a testament to just how much people love these games. Halo: Reach is the latest to fall victim to pirates and is being downloaded almost a full month before its release.
Halo: Reach was posted onto Xbox LIVE for reviewers to download and hackers were able to gain access to download the game's code. They were then able to remove any kind of locks on the game and of course made it available online for everybody else. It does however require a modified console but Microsoft is not too happy about the leak and is busy looking into how it happened.
Halo: Reach is going to be released exclusively for Xbox 360 on September 14th.
