Processor: Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5200 @2.50GHZ

Grafix card: Gefore 9600 GT 1024

RAM: 4GB

Motherboard: Asus P5QL

Will Batman: Arkham Asylum and Borderlands run ok on my PC?

Graphically speaking which versions would run better: my PC or the 360 versions?

360. That processor isn't looking too good. Your GPU might pump out graphics on par with the 360, but you might want to invest in a better CPU.

360 it is then well... seeing as how my processor seems to be the weakest part on my PC what processor should I replace with it? (remember, it needs to be compatible with the P5QL motherboards)

That processor is fine. I actually have an e5200 on a p5ql pro board, and it easily overclocked to 3.5ghz on air. Even without being overclocked, it can handle almost any game you can throw at it. Your biggest concern will be your gpu.

I'm actually playing Borderlands right now with that e5200 and an hd4830, maxed out at 1400x900.

My computer is weaker than yours and I can max both of those games (although I need to turn Dynamic Shadows off on Borderlands). So you'll run it better than a 360 for sure.

By the way isn't it a bit awkward playing Batman: AA on a keyboard?

Not really, I actually prefer it to using a controller. But if you're worried, download the demo.

Your pc will max them, most likelly. I was under the impression that Batman AA is one of the few games that the x360 version looks worse than the ps3, or so i heard!
