Forums - Gaming - Ign: Batman: Arkham Asylum Review

  Presentation
This is what Batman's world feels like. It's dark and gritty. You'll feel Batman's frustration and the terror of hostages. In-game cutscenes and lip syncing could be better.
8.5 Graphics
Batman's forearms are too big and hair tends to look plasticy, but the game looks great in motion. Batman's damage detail by the end of the game is a nice touch.
9.5 Sound
Most of the voice acting is out of the world good. I could listen to the Joker and Riddler talk all day long. The score sets the mood as well. Excellent work.
9.5 Gameplay
At its core, the fist fighting is simple but it is fun. Meanwhile, attacking from the shadows and using bat-gadgets is what being Batman is all about.
9.0 Lasting Appeal
Beating the story and 240 riddles took me 12 hours. If you don't feel like Edward's clues, you'll be done faster. The challenge mode should keep you going if you dig the combat.
9.3
Outstanding
OVERALL
(out of 10 / not an average)

So it is terrific. A great game and an extremely equal multiplat.

Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh my!!!!!!!

That's an incredible score, it's a must buy now. I don't think many people would have seen these kinds of scores coming.



 

 

I think I'll be off to get the demo.



Wow I'm surprised! I need to try this out...

They would have if they had played the awesome demo. I'm not surprised by this score at all.



Pre-order them while they're still $38 in Canada



Definitely can't wait to get the game now.



Yeah this game gets alot of good scores, could be best Batman game ever.



 

Pretty much what I expected after the demo. I'll be picking this baby up.
