    I brought the Asus G51J. From what i read, it was supposed to come with a free download of Batman Arkham Asylum.

    I could not find any details of the download in the package that was sent to me. neither could i find any coupon for this game.

    Please advise. Any one knows what happened????

    It was just a coupon thing that your reseller would of given you and you just scratch it for a code and download it.

    The code was only for a certain amount of time, I think the coupons have expired.

    The free download was from select resellers,

    I purchased mine from Buydig.com over a month ago and it did not come with BAA.

    Where/Who did you purchase yours from? I'm not even sure if the promotion is still ongoing.

    the free coupon for the batman game doesnt come from any reseller. from what I knew when i was looking to buy a g51j was that xotic and gentech had them that i know of. im sure you could send it back and buy it again from another reseller if you needed to but I personally didnt like the game that much

    They stopped the promotion when they discovered the G51J couldn't play it without BSODs :D
