Batman: Arkham Asylum

Best Superhero game ever? Yes in my opinion. Game is spectacular. Great production values, voicemwork, gameplay. So good that I actually bought it.

According to the game stats Im about 20% through the game and have battled Scarecrow (awesome level where you are poisned with his lunacy gas) Bane, and HarleyQuinn. This game is awesome on so many levels. Its a comic fans dream, I didnt think anyone would take a property so seriously and deliver on it.

As soon as I get a PS3 slim, I'm gonna give this game a go. Oops... wrong forum.

Welcome to the forums calex. The more the merrier. Thanks for joining us. I haven't played it yet but have heard mostly good things about it. The only thing negative would be the challenge mode. Supposedly it gets old fast.

Challenge mode Is awesome. It has an online leaderboard so you can compete with your friends for the top slot. Only problem is you have to find all the joker clues to unlock each challenge and after beating the game I am missing about half.

So onto the game. This thing exceeds the rating scale. My only complaint was that the last boss was a little too easy. I havent had that much fun with a licensed gaem ever and I look forward to the sequel.

C'mon Streex, you can't keep relying on heresay as the basis for your own feelings on a game... or on ANYTHING, for that matter.

If you haven't played a game, you can say it doesn't appeal to you by it's looks, but you can't specifically knock certain modes, or elements of the gameplay.

If you played it, you might like it. How would you know until then?

Those aren't my personal feelings for the game. Just because I reveal what I read or watch doesn't mean that's how I feel about it. Of course I can't say for myself, but if my sources play and review said game, then I'll share that info and know what to expect if I ever get a chance to play it. The review stated that the Challenge mode was very repetitive and you'll get tired of it quick. Just passing the info along. Obviously Triz disagrees, tried it himself and loves it. And you know me...I find a lot of good stuff in games that are hacked by critics. Sorry if it sounded like that was my personal heartfelt opinion.
My personal feelings on it right now? It looks awesome! I'd love to give it a go. I loved the splinter cell games and it looks to play like those, with a lot of stealth scenarios. Tons of villains we all know and love, it's hard to vision it being a bad game.
