I can't believe it doesn't need iextreme v1.6. Like every recent new game has needed it. edit: NVM, I see later on it says it does need 1.51 or later.
This game kicks so much ***... [ame="http://www.gametrailers.com/player/54785.html"]Batman: Arkham Asylum Video Game, Review HD | Game Trailers & Videos | GameTrailers.com[/ame]
downloaded the PC demo... really liked it. though on the windows live sight, it says available on September 15th. do they usually release games for the PC later than for the consoles?
I watched the gametrailers review and it looks a lot more diverse than I originally thought. Seems to be as open as Bioshock...just from watching the review.
There's tons of exploration and backtracking. It's more like a 3D Metroid than anything else. Excellent game.
great stealth throughout the entire game, and the detective stuff is awesome. The game does true justice to batman and all his villians as well. Specifically killer croc, scarecrow and the joker are all fantastic.
i beat it last night. I was very disappointed at the final fight. But still an amazing experience. I rate it 9/10. I love the parts where it's you vs 5-10 armed guys and you have to stealthly remove them 1 by 1. I decided to try and get all of the Riddler's riddles. I'm at 85% right now. For those who beat it: Spoiler Did you scream on that part when the game looks like it crashes?? Spoiler Did you sit through the credits? It suggests that Scarecrow lived. He easily stole the show imo Spoiler Super Joker was soooooo boring. I expected a lot more.
Phenomenal game. the riddler's challenges are far and away the most original game play i've seen in years. Im completely thinking out of the box, doing tons of investigating and surveying to find all the challenges. A game has never made me work harder and have fun doing than this one. Im a huge comic fan as well, and i can say this game does all the batman characters right. The story is wonderful, very true to batman. very very few complaints at all about this game.
Picked it up last night and the actual game is even better than I thought it was going to be from the demo. Great game so far. The interaction with you and The Joker is great. The gadgets...what a game. I love detective mode, I want glasses like that.
I have 237 of 240 riddles completed. The 3 that I'm missing are those stupid "Kill X amount of laughing chatterboxes" - I can't find the stupid things
I missed one last night.....one about Xenaus or something is counting on you to find it? Right after you beat the crap out of the guys hitting on the B-mobile.
finding the riddle maps help you significantly. Doesn't show where anything is, but puts you in the vicinity.
YEPPPP. I just finished them all last night. I spent an hour looking for 3 teeth...Coincidentally if you're missing 3 in the arkham mansion, i guarantee its the same exact 3 i was missing.
nah thats 'the legacy of the island is well buried' or something. Thats in Arkham East, in front of the botanical gardens. "Zasz is counting on you finding his handy work" is in Arkham West, on top of the Penitentiary. ....And i just realized i can map out the whole game in my head right now. i think i need to put the game down.
Spoiler The room where Zasz held dr. young captive and you had to hit him with a batarang from behind the door. the room dr. young died in. the teeth are upstairs. You have no reason to go up there except for the teeth. You zip line up there right when you walk in. It's located on the far left of the arkham mansion map. Pain in the *** to find.
there the only ones in the entire game that aren't just laying there in front of you. i think everyone probably misses them because of that.
this game is sooo awesome. every aspect is awesome. imo. it'll probably be one of the very few games where i actually do 100% of the crap.
ahh, its only 9:53 pm . wifes asleep. baby girls asleep. i got at least 3 hour of uninterrupted play on my plate.
i beat it, but i probably have hours on top of hours of challenges left. although, its kinda lonely without thugs to beat up.
