How well can your computer run batman arkam asylum?

i ask because i recently tried out the demo at max settings (save only using 4x aa) and found that it didn't run as smooth as i hoped. it ran fine, but there were spots that weren't exactly what i'd like. i have a gtx 260, core 2 duo E8500, 4gb ram, and 64 bit vista. keep in mind that other people wouldn't have an issue with how its performing on my machine, i'm just really picky....

i guess i should try playing it at 2x aa and see if it makes much of a difference. perhaps its the physx stuff that does it. i found that mirrors edge gives me some slow down issues with it on, but runs above 60 fps at all times with it off. though, i think i'll take the performance hit, the cloth effects on batman's cape are just beautiful

It ran Like a dream on my Pc, but I also had Physx on too one card ran the game and the other physx :P, My setting were 1650x1050 4x AA highest setting, I might bump up the AA some more. Pickup a 9600gso or something for a physx card since more and more games are starting to use it.04dcarraher

MaXed except for Vsync and AA. It looks spectacular! Plays very smooth...

BecauseI don't have it XD.

Maxed with 8xAA at 1920x1200 and it runs pretty well.

i'm starting to wonder why my computer can't power through it at 1920x1080....

should i be able to? gtx 260, E8500, 4gb ram, and vista 64

AMD X2 4800+ (2.5Ghz)
2 GB RAM
8800 GTX (slightly OC'd)

1440x900
Everything maxed except Ambient Occlusion
2x AA

On average I get about 30-35 FPS.

Here is a video I recorded of gameplay that gives you an idea of just how smooth the game runs, even with Fraps shaving off about 10 FPS or so (taking it down to 20-25, though it looks smoother than that in the footage, ironically enough).

Seems to run nicely completely maxed for me. I'll report back in 5 mins, gonna have to try the demo sober.

It ran great for me. I'm surprised because most Console ports run like **** on PC, very well optimized game. All settings on max 1680 by 1050 res, no Psysx enabled, 2 X AA, 60 FPS

Vista 64-bit
C2Q Q8200 OC 2.71GHz
4.Ogb Ram DDR2 800
4870 512mb

Ok...

1920*1080, everything maxed including physx.

It's playable at 16xQ (I expect the console versions to run like this), fps is better at 16X but I'll probably play at 4X since there's no difference whatsoever that I can tell.

Run the launcher ---> go to settings --> AA can be set from there.

That might be the case. Can you force AA on ATI cards?

Just go to programs under start menu, find eidos and click game setup its so easy.....04dcarraher

well, without phyx its absolutely perfect for me. too bad physx takes such a big hit on my performance the eye candy is wonderful T_T

Core i7 - GTX 275.

Maxed out, with 4XAA, at 1680*1050, the demo ran like butter. Ultra smooth from start to finish. I loved the animations. And the engine itself is one of my favorites because l like the clean look of the Unreal engine (which surprisingly seems to turn a lot of people off - one guy I know didn't like VEGAS 2 for that reason, because he thought it was too antiseptic looking.)

Anyhow, the game is really well optimized. I mean, I'd say that there's a lot going on there, with all of those wonderful combat animations and whatnot.

It's a truly beautiful game, and one that's very modern looking.

(I'm also glad to see that there's a buzz being generated about this game... I think it probably deserves it.)

The one area that kind of killed my performance with PhysX was the area where you learn to glide kick. All of those breakable tiles take a toll.
