THE game for any Batman Fan

User Rating: 9 | Batman: Arkham Asylum PS3
By saint0814 | Review Date:
When it comes to superheroes, I'm a Marvel fan. I find their stories much better and more realistic as compared to DC. However, Batman is my all time favorite. I've played every Batman game ever made, and I have to say i was never really impressed by them (except for the 90s batman the Animated Series for the SNES). Arkham Asylum though is a MUST HAVE for any Batman fan. Hell... it's good for any video game fan. The controls are extremely simple, Combat flows very gracefully, with a simple 3 button system and plenty of upgradable take downs and knockouts. The story is very immersible and includes many of Batman's all time enemies. Joker, Scarecrow, Poison Ivy, I mean it gets no better. Plus the game pays homage to many of Batman's unknown enemies such as Moth Man and Maxie Zeus through a Riddler style collection game. This game is very impressive and a must play.

    Wow. That's all I could say when I saw the intro to this game. From story to graphics, I was pulled in immediately. You know the Joker has something up his sleeve as he's being carted to his cell, but you don't know how ... Read Full Review
