I played both games with a pad and for some reason found the first game way better than the second one.

May be because the first game had the wow factor as it was built on latest technology at the time compared to its predecessors. Everything was amazing about it from the atmosphere, graphics, lightning, suspense, realism to characters facial animation and voice acting.

When it came to arkham city, I have already become used to the 'usual' settings etc and so it wasn't anything new. I have only played the 2nd one for about 1-2 hours.

Reminds me of scenario between Crysis and Crysis 2
 
No way! You can't compare the scenario between crysis 1 and 2 to batman AA and AC :mad:

:p

Crysis 2 was worse in pretty much every single way compared to crysis 1, with batman AC, every thing was improved (obviously voice acting stayed the same :p They had the same people doing the voices who did the batman cartoon TV show hence why the voice acting is excellent :cool:)

I also thought the same about Batman AC, but after playing it for a bit longer, I loved it. It is the sort of game you need to give more than just a hour of game play time. I found it got better and better as it went along, especially the story, really felt like a top class film, almost like a Nolan batman film! :p
 
Iv had it since it came out only about 6 Hours into it...I must get this completed :o

Edit.. Sorry i meant Arkham City evan more of a :o:o been a long day

It's funny, I still found combat pretty difficult (on Normal mode) even by the end of AA. Then I bought AC, and found the combat much improved (or at least, more forgiving). Went back to AA, and I could do even the toughest fights in Hard mode in one or two goes. :cool:

I think AC gets you more used to the idea that you don't have to be right in the middle of the scrap to win it.
 
I think Arkham Asylum and it's sequel to be absolutely brilliant. Definitely one of the best singleplayer games I've played in a while. I'm not a big fan of batman, it's just a very good and enjoyable game.

A gamepad is a must IMO.
 
AA worked really well on keyboard and mouse - suprisingly so... except 1-2 boss fights which had been designed around moves that were only really possible with aim-assists and using lots of buttons for movement instead of one hand on the mouse (and 1-2 platformer sections) which was really weird coz all the rest of the game they'd obviously put a lot of effort into making it work well on keyboard and mouse then you'd get small sections where it was like they'd totally forgot about it.
