  Dark Knight knows some moves

  Hey people, after a long long time, its a blog from me (omgomgomg). I've been obsessed with Batman Arkham Asylum since the past few days and to describe it in one word : AWESOME. If you remotely like action/detective/platformers/stealth games, you should NOT miss this.Too lazy to write a full review, but here are my short thoughts on the game...

  I play on the PC with maxed settings and the game looks simply awesome. The environments are dark yet colorful and realistic. Too bad we need to spend so much time in detective vision.

  The story is the usual I-want-to-take-over-gotham-with-my-ingenious-plan-type but the progression is weaved nicely with the sidequests, the riddler's riddles in particular. Those are fun to figure out. Collecting trophies which are hidden in different locations is fun too. I was more worried about collecting trophies rather than saving the hostages at some points

  The combat, according to me, is the best aspect of the game. There is a freeflow combat system which allows you to chain combos together. You can counter, flip-dodge and perform some takedowns without losing the flow, making the dark knight faster and more agile as the combos start to build up. Batman sure knows how to dance. Take a look at this challenge mode challenge to see what I mean...

  Did I tell you the combat is awesome?

  Until next time...bye!

  In case you dont see it...Click meh

  The only problem is when you use the gamespot's LIGHT theme, which kills most of the sig.

  I'll have a lot of time from now on, about 2 hours everyday when I'm sitting in the office. I wont be acces gamespot but I can design all I want. If you have some requests, now is the time for my comeback

  ---------------------------------------------------------------

  As for other news, there were not too many submissions for the Games WITHOUT banners this time. Yup, the semi-finalists will be announced within this week. Happy emblem in advance to all those who pass
