Ever wonder what happened to all the vanquished villains in Gotham City? Swoop into GameStop Corp. (NYSE:GME), the world's largest video game and entertainment software retailer, during the launch of Batman: Arkham Asylum on Monday, Aug. 24. GameStop is hosting midnight launch events at more than 2,600 U.S. locations exposing fans to the depths of Arkham Asylum - Gotham's psychiatric hospital for the criminally insane.

Event-goers can get into character with:
• The "Holy Costume Contest, Batman!"
• The "Batman Theatre"
• The "Holy Trivia, Batman!" contest

Customers who pre-order Batman: Arkham Asylum from GameStop will receive access to an exclusive Challenge Map. The "Dem Bones" Challenge Map pits Batman against Scarecrow's army of skeletons.
