Batman: Arkham Asylum
Batman: Arkham Asylum Review
Before I got this game I checked out the reviews from various websites and the one that had me sold was “This is not a Batman game, this is a Batman Simulator”
I am about half way through the game and I couldn’t Agree more with that review.
Pros:
- Voice actors are the best for Bats and Joker: Conroy and Hamill, respectively
- Controls feel pretty natural after just a couple of minutes(I mostly use an xbox 360 controller)
- Graphics are ridiculously realistic (for a game). You can zoom in on characters and see the threads of their outfits
- Story is very Batman-like and keeps you interested.
- Reading, seeing and hearing about different Batman Universe Characters make me feel like I am creating my own comic book/movie
- Fighting the henchmen is so fun, it feels like there are infinite combos I can do to take down a group of 10 men.
- Side stories/missions: There are various riddles for each section of the Island as well as little artifacts left by Arkham himself as well as interview tapes between the inmates and therapists.
Cons:
- At certain points it feels like I am playing Gears of War
- Certain Boss fights are ridiculously easy
- I can play for hours at a time and I still don’t move and fight like Batman.
-
- Face off against Gotham¿s greatest villains including The Joker, HARLEY QUINN, VICTOR ZSASZ and KILLER CROC
- Become the Invisible Predatotm with Batman¿s takedowns and unique vantage point system to move without being seen or utilize the unique FreeFlowtm combat system to chain together unlimited combos and battle with huge groups of The Joker¿s henchmen
- Choose multiple takedown methods, including swooping from the sky and smashing through walls, and use the predator camera get a closer look at the action.
- Explore every inch of Arkham Asylum and roam freely on the infamous island, presented for the first time ever in its gritty and realistic entiret
- Experience what it¿s like to be BATMAN using BATARANGS, explosive gel aerosol, The Batclaw, sonar resonator and the line launcher

| Review by (USA) 2010-07-22 This game is fun, but once you arrive in the new worlds, is much more difficult. I would not recommend to anyone who has not had 1 year + (s) of experience with the Wii. The controls are different. Instead of A, is two and instead of B is 1. It 'very confusing to figure out how to play! This game is very, very fustrating. When I could not... Read more reviews | ||

| Review by DelusionalAngel (USA) 2010-07-29 I will try to keep this short and sweet, because let's face it, if you even think about buying this game and reading reviews, you probably already know something about Mario games and Nintendo - blah blah blah. Furthermore, it has been said before. This is what makes this game a 5 star in my book. I'm not a game even if I geek... Read more reviews | ||
