Today, Game Informer revealed that they have information about the new Batman game, called Batman: Arkham Asylum, in their September issue. The game is being developed by Rocksteady Studios and Eidos. According to their post, the story will revolve around Joker and his prison break from Arkham Asylum. They also say "Arkham Asylum is setting the stage for a true-to-character Batman game."
Also, details from the Game Informer issue have been leaked onto NeoGAF. Some of the things leaked include:
+ Single player action game for the 360, PS3, and PC.
+ Coming out in 2009.
+ "Boasts a brand new story reminiscent of the depth and twists of Bioshock."
+ The characters are to be authentic, yet distinct.
+ Runs on Unreal Engine 3, with an over-the-shoulder perspective.
+ Some of the villans include Joker, Harley Quinn, Killer Croc, Penguin, Riddler, Scarecrow and more. The magazine also hints that you may be able to play as some of the villans.
+ Eidos has license over all 70 years of Batman comics, and may pull from that.

Wow, I didn't know that Eidos has licenses to that many Batman comics. This could turn out to be really cool if they reference and combine those.
Cory, I imagine you will be picking this up for the 360? For those of you who don't have 360s or PS3s yet, I suggest taking a look at this Stacker 2 contest going on where you can win the system of your choice, a year's supply of 6 Hour Power energy shots, a copy of Rise of the Argonauts, and more. All you need to do is design a 6 Hour Power t-shirt. If you're interested, check out the contest details here: http://www.brickfish.com/Entertainment/Stacker2?tab=overview
By the way, I hope I'm not overstepping my bounds by commenting on your blog. I work with them so if you have any questions just let me know. Definitely send me an e-mail if you enter as I'll vote for your designs. Good luck.
