Batman: Arkham Asylum

[SOLIDSNAKE]

I've been busy, just got to the botanical garden's tracing Harley's finger prints. I don't remember what percentage I am through the game though, I know I'm about half done.


I already want a sequel that takes place in the actual city and that has the other half of the rogue gallery. Actually they have enough to make a trilogy out of this....


Love it!!!

Ohh man I sure hope they make part 2 of the game in the city and able to drive the batmobile.
it would be amazing !
Man ! the part when you get to the batcave OMG that was sick !

Not really sure what else can be said, but I have just been playing it for the past hour and a half and....wow.

Really, really good. Stunning visuals, well executed concepts, great controls, intelligent camera, wonderful character designs, good lip syncing.

Only negative so far, (because I am trying to find something bad!), is that there can sometimes be too much going on on screen.

I am only 3% in!

Only played it for half an hour...been up the walls with work but all these comments are making me antsy to get at it again.

I'm only 3% in as well! And I fully agree with what you said there. Especially with the game being new, it's a little hard to take in all the messages etc on the screen at once!

That said it's not really a problem at all, what a game, one of the best ever made imo.

Ok after really sitting down and playing it, I have to say this game is um.....AWESOME!

I'm wrong on this point. Tried it this morning. The door to the Joker is locked. There were no Riddler challenges inside, so I don't mind that much.

Edit:

After you complete the game and continue your saved game, it is loaded right before the last fight, so you can do that again if you choose.

Has anyone started visiting the sites mentioned in game
Arkham Care
Arkham Care - Prices

Spoiler

Did anyone catch the one that Scarface says in the second Scarecrow level ?

That's a first, isn't it? That there are corresponding websites in the real world that are referenced in a video game?

That Arkham site is awesome, and this type of virtual cross-over should be used more often in future video games!!

My favorite trick is when there is at least three goons around a corner, I will spray the explosive gel on the ground (3 x's).

Then I'll walk around the corner and when they see me, pull back the way I came, so they follow. When they get far enough trigger the gel. Boom!!

Doesn't count for a combo, but still fun as hell to see them all fly.

 

[Darth Caedus]

The game's great, but was it just me, or did Conroy's voice change a little bit? It took me a while to really hear the Batman TAS voice in him.

 

[tarman]

Game of the YEAR!!!!(until Moder Warfare2 comes out..maybe). Only problem is I kept running into walls and every other thing. Finished the game and can't wait for the sequel. Two-Face....maybe. Does anybody know if you can use the Armored Bat-suit in the main story???

He does sound a bit different...I am assuming it was intentional. I like the voice work very much

 

[alphatyrant]

I have to say the Scarecrow sections were incredible, although one of them made me think my 360 had died on me!!

 

[Starkiller]

Just beat it today. Got in on release day and haven't stopped playing whenever I get the chance. I'm 80% done and trying to go back and find all the Riddler Trophies.

Spoiler

The ending is amazing with the 'harvey dent' call over the police radio and Batman flies towards Gotham, and then after credits roll either Croc, bane, or Scarecrow emerge from the water and grab onto a bin of titan.

All setting up a sequel perfectly. And being the game only used about 1/3 of Batman's rogue gallery, and any of the villains could return...I think we will see one soon. A lot showed their faces but like we never came face to face with Riddler, and only Ghul's body is in it. Clayface briefly makes a cameo. So much potential for future installments. Two-Face, Firefly, Mr. Freeze, Catwoman, Penguin, Hush, Mad Hatter, Man-Bat....just to name a few others that we have yet to see.

Bring them on!

I have a feeling we'll get one.

Some prequel levels would be cool as well, with what the Joker was up to at Blackgate
Gotham City Municipal Report

But easily best game I've played in a long time, challenging without being frustrating
