Batman: Arkham Asylum

[-Arya-]

The encounter with Scarecrow and Bane are amazing. I love this game so far!

Sooo, if I downloaded the Joker stuff the other night, before getting the game.

Should it already be playable?

Great game so far.

I love battling as many guys at once as possible. Several times you find yourself surrounded by seemingly endless numbers of guys.

I definitely recommend playing on hard, it (obviously) makes it much more difficult, but it also makes those huge 10-on-1 battles feel incredibly rewarding. The combat system is ridiculously addictive on the harder levels when timing is absolutely everything. A real challenge. I love it.

So I was planning on getting this this week, but I just found out my 360's disc drive is broken. Yay for reliable consoles!

 

[Hurm...]

Right now I'm chasing after Harley Quinn but so far, my favorite part is...

Spoiler

definitely the Scarecrow parts. They are just out of this world. ANother one of my favorite parts was when I had to save the doctor and the cop and Joker was counting down from 5 minutes. By the time he gets to zero he screams BOOM! and nothing happens. I felt so relieved that I I didn't have to retry the level and rush to save the hostages. Now that is a really incredible gaming experience right there. Making you feel like you really are Batman trying to save the hostages in time.

I love this game.

So if I download this to my 360, the graphics are better? I've never downloaded a retail game to my 360 because it seems pointless.

I dont think the visuals look any better, the game loads faster tho plus its less wear and tear on your 360, so if ya have the space, why not download it. I have a 120gig so download everything to my HDD.

Some of these riddles are pretty tricky to figure out. I also like how the Riddler taunts you after you solve each one. The attention to detail in this game is incredible.

I just broke into the mansion. Probably done for the night (hitting the bar), but it's certainly the most amount of time I've put into a single video game during one day in a long, long time

Why don't you play it and find out?

I was playing up until saving the last doctor. The game froze so I took a break then. I'd give it an 8 so far. The camera is still annoying and I'm not really digging the combat either.

Can't believe I have to wait till Saturday to get this.

God this game is so amazing. There was some pretty emotional scenes in the game surprisingly.

 

[darknight7]

Ok people I'm stuck. I'm trying to rescue Gordon but I'm trapped in those darn electric doors won't open for me and I'm going in circles. Someone help me!

Try to get on top of where he is. I think you have to go up the stairs and a little before the electric door, there will be a signal to use your grapple gun. Then takedown Harley and free Jim.

Nah I haven't even found him yet. I've just talked to Oracle and she told me to go back the way I came. I did. Now it's saying the door is locked and I've been over it like 10 times and can't find away to get the open the door open. I've climbed the ceiling in DM and everything but I can't get in. Help me out man!
