Batman: Arkham Asylum will be the new super hero game standard. I can't come up with any real complaints about my first few hours with the game, except that I feel it borders on easiness. Batman: Arkham Asylum is rated BBFC 15 and available for Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 for the suggested retail price of 49.99. It will also be available for Games for Windows at retail outlets for the suggested retail price of 34.99 on September 18, 2009. Batman: Arkham Asylum is one of those games that comes along every few years that will have gamers talking about it long into the future. I for one could not put it down from start to finish.
Batman: Arkham Asylum is one of our most anticipated games from E3 this year. It's very different from any game I've seen before, and offers a unique style of gameplay that has us interested in playing for hours because it's so addictive..
Gamers will move in the shadows, urge fear amongst their enemies and confront The Joker and Gotham City's most notorious villains who have taken over the asylum. Using a wide range of Batmans gadgets and abilities. Gameplay elements, like brawling six guys at once, or silently taking on enemies with guns, are introduced slowly and individually. Then, as the story progresses, variables are introduced. Game Informer featured it in one of their issues with really positive things to say about the game. Not only game informer but gamespot.com and IGN.com gave this game some cudos.
Combat is easy with single button press punches, stuns and redirects and is context sensitive, depending on which way the thumbstick is leaning. Take downs are performed by pressing RT + Y or B+Y when close to an enemy and are cinematically highlighted by a random slow motion payoff cam. Combat description in the magazine talks about Batman perched on a high ledge in a wide open room as he watches some of the Joker's thugs rifle through drawers. Batman switches to investigation mode using a blue tinted visor that among his other gadgets lets Batman see his enemies through walls and identifies things like guns and knives.
Building up a combo allows Batman to pull off the most spectacular attacks and earns more XP, used to unlock gadgets, combat moves and health upgrades. Put together a free flowing combo requires a rhythmic approach to punching, keeping a careful eye on where your opponents are and timing your button presses to keep a steady stream of blows raining down.
Prepare to be amazed with the videogame Batman: Arkham Asylum, which hits stores this week to RAVE reviews, and is everyones latest must have game. The best Batman game ever made.
