I will tell you what is good and what is missing
I watched all the Batman movies but when I think of Batman I think of The Animated/Cartoon Series over the comics,movies or even Adam West.
The cartoon is what made this game a real treat for me.Most of the characters from the cartoon brought to life was cool.The ability to be Batman is just awesome.The amount of the villains made it so fun.
Batman: Arkham Asylum
Pros-
#1.Good Graphics
#2.Great Voice Acting and Sounds
#3.Multiple combat techniques
#4.The ability to become Batman
#5.Secrets to find
#6.Detective mode
#7.Gliding in the air
#8.Fun gadgets
#9.So many villains to encounter and read about
#10.Boss fights are fun
Cons-
#1.You don't get to fight every boss or it is a limited version even when you do.These are clearly the biggest cons of the game.
What I mean is I really wanted to fight Clay Face but he never leaves his cell and I wanted to fight Joker before he took steroids lol just to see how tough he is but it isn't in the game.
#2.Killer Croc does not physically look like he is based on the cartoon version.He does look bigger and meaner in his new form so I will give them that but it isn't cartoon croc.
#3.None of the prisoners have shoes or socks on it seems.I'm not talking the bosses but the goons and thugs of Joker.Is this prison really cheap or will they use the shoes as weapons. lol
#4.You don't get to control the batmobile.I want to drive it myself.
#5.You don't get to explore the mansion of Bruce Wayne.I just want the full Batman experience.
#6.Where is Robin and Catwoman?
#7.It does feel like a button masher with the thugs/goons sometimes.I hope they add more to combat techniques.
#8.I got tired of looking at the same thugs/goons of Joker.I hope that add more body types to the thugs/goons.They are all the same height and weight it seems.
The Bottom Line -
This is a very fun game.I highly recommend you buy it.The things that I complained about most would understandably happen if they were planning to make a sequel in the first place which they are.
This game is well worth the price tag.If you can get it under $50 like I did then you got a great deal.
My 2 cents
