Batman: Arkham Asylum

[Spidey17]

It's 4 glide kicks to the face to take out a guy on the demo's difficulty, like I thought. Almost died focusing on one guy. The developers didn't work hard enough to make Joker's henchmen look unique, the basic grunts are either 'roided out, bald, and white, are the same except black. I guess they shave your head in prison, so it makes sense. But I wanted some skinny thugs, some latinos, something!!!

And trying to go Rambo, I heard a lot more of the dynamic dialog by Hamill. He'll tell the guys you're making them look stupid if they don't spot you for awhile, if you take out one he has a line for that, and dying repeatedly showed me a bunch of the retry cut scene's. I bet I didn't hear them all, plus I know other characters do it. Hope I get to hear Bane/Croc/Poison Ivy mock me.

Oh, and I loved watching the guards and see them use cover, and mount up the courage to peak out, and eventually slide out. They catch me almost everytime I'm hiding in the floor, even if I barely move. They even look over the railing to see if you're sneaking beneath! Besides them having no vertical awareness, I'd have to say these guys are smarter than the soldiers from any MGS game. But of course, with the prime viewing angles, I can actually see all of their reactions, which might be why. The instances of being above all your foes in MGS are few and far between, so you can't see what everyone is doing mostly. I do know for a fact that the enemies in MGS won't group up if they're flying solo to start with, only backup squads and FROGs stick together. That really shocked me in AA.

I hope Two Face is the main villian in the sequel. I'd love to see Richard Moll take over as the voice for Two Face again

Wouldn't get my hopes up for any more of the cartoon voices, but I'd love to hear either him or James Remar.

Why would you mess with a winning formula when it comes to voice actors. One of the great things in this game was the voice actors.Bring them all back I say Conroy has to be Batman and Moll what is he doing that he can't be Two-Face again.

I have a question:

I'm beating the game on Normal. What happens with the trophy/achievements if (after I finish it) I try to play on hard? I'm gonna lose them and have to find all of 'em again?

Once you get a trophy/achievement, they are linked to you gamertag forever... If you are talking about the Riddler trophies, however, those you'll need to collect all over again.

Ugh...yeah, that's what I was affraid of.

Just make a separate save and you can go back to look at the character models or read the bios or whatever.

Lol Geo, I only posted again on the same page, because one of the comments straight after mine said "I can't even think of an idea for a sequel" and I thought it was relevant... I'm not that starved for attention lol (Although I love how you picked up on the double post, but ignored all the actual content)

I read it, I just didn't really have anything to say about it.

Woo, I beat AA on hard this past weekend. It was difficult but fair, and tough enough that I felt really accomplished when I made it through a more difficult section. Yay me!

I also finished all the normal combat challenges, and the first extreme one...only a few more left.

Shock and Awe extreme can die a horrible flaming death though.

LMAO!!! Ya, that one gave me quite the heart attack when I was trying to beat it.

Although, it feels great once you do complete it

You speak the truth.

If they can't get the animaed series actor to play him in the next one, I wouldn't mind Aaron Eckhart doing the voice-overs for Dent.

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

That might be something of a tall order.

I don't think Eckhart would do it but it would be cool to get a mix of live action and cartoon voice actors.

 

[Angel_Faerie]

It'd be a cool idea, though.

 

[Asteroid-Man]

Anyone else wanted an actual FIGHT against the boss? Harley, Scarecrow, Crock and Joker fights were so lame. The Bane fight was awesome though. I love IGN's idea for AA2 and 3 but I want to fight the Joker, Hush and Ra's hand to hand (well with Ra's I want it to be more of a sword combat first and then we get a cut scene and then it's hand to hand.)

 

[Electro UK]

The more I think about it, the more the boss fights were a dissapointment. I mean I personally loved the Scarecrow and Croc parts, but they weren't fights, and Joker was just about the most disapointing ending boss fight ever.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Yea, but how long would a true one on one fight with a Harley or Scarecrow last? Id say about one punch. We saw how easily Bats dropped Harley, he'd drop Crane even quicker.

Same with Joker. That's why I actually agree with the path Rocksteady took with the final boss. The only real nitpick I have with it was they could've made it more challenging.

 

[GoblinWhirlwind]

I don't think Eckhart would do it but it would be cool to get a mix of live action and cartoon voice actors.

You never know, he just might. He said he'd love to come back to Two-Face, and if Nolan won't bring him back in the next movie, maybe he'd do it just to make the fans happy. If he's got nothing else going on at the time, he could fit it in. Voice acting takes a heck of a lot less time than filming does.

Yea, i can see why they went there, but i just hated the venomed up Joker so much that i rather of had a cutscene showing Bats taking him down. Oh well tho, still loved the game and am ready to give my money to Rocksteady again if they do a sequel.

 

[Jick]

Eckhart doing Two-Face's voice?

Blech...Richard Moll or bust.
