*Batman: Arkham Asylum*

I also finished the game tonight. Very, very good game and the best new game I've played this year so far.

Got all riddles which, whilst just collectables, were an absolute joy to find and I think it's the only game where I've bothered to try and find them which says a lot.

I didn't think too much of the challenge mode though. To me it just feels a bit tacked on to increase longevity but I can understand why others like them.

I so hope they make another Batman game like this.
 
Picked up my copy for PS3 on release day, been playing for what seems like ages and I’m ~70% done, so the game gets a massive thumbs up from me for length, ooh err.

So far, this is probably the best game of 2009 for me, mind you, I’m having trouble recollecting what else has come out in 09 and I’m too lazy to Google at this hour :p

Really really enjoying it, and can whole heartedly recommend it to anyone who doesn’t already have a copy, and despite the style of play/combat, it’s yet to bore me – so, top game!

Scort.

goddamn, playin ps3 in dolby digital, the morge is mental!, scary as hell :D

They should have hired these guys to do RE5. I'd have actually been scared if they did.

Finished the game in a straight 13 hour session afew days ago. There are afew things that got to me, such as about to knock someone out and a guy from behind would constantly punch you off.

Overall, a good game. It's too bad i knew the Batman storyline from the animated series so stuff such as the Commisioner Gordon death was not as effective. :P

Spoiler mate! Only just started the game and boy did I make a mistake coming into this thread...
 
Anyone done all the Challenge rooms? I am struggling on the last 3 Predator challenges and the a couple of combat challenges (one of them is timed per round, and I am not quick enough :()

I am assuming you need to get all the medals to get 100% completion, I am on about 88%.

Same.

Unless MW2 brings something awesome or MAG lives up to my expectations.
I think inFamous was better than Batman, as a SP game. Uncharted 2 will probably be better (and longer) than both.

Personally, although inFamous was great (still haven't finished it though) I'm enjoying this more. Probably only due to it being Batman. :p

SPOILER




I'm at the bit where you take on Joker now. Having a hard time dealing with the many henchmen and the two Titans at the same time. Wish it was easier to take the henchmen down.

Run away from the hencmen, constantly, until the Titan's charge, then batarang them and jump on one's back as they are "blinded". IIRC the henchmen keep respawning until you kill the Titans, so do not waste energy/time on them.

ride the titans too, use a titan to beat the other titan up.
 
Thought that was the easiest boss encounter in the game. (2 Titans + Henchmen, then the bit after)

I was playing on hard though, Ivy was by far the hardest.
SPOILER:

problem was it wasn't regening my health, thats why it was a struggle, when i hit the joker when he was downed my health stayed low.
