I don’t have a cold and I can assure you I am very much a man. I really enjoyed this game, I mean I REALLY enjoyed it, the hand to hand combat is probably the best I’ve ever seen but for me when the story mode ended the game ended for me. The riddles didn’t do any thing for me.

Nice video review Ash, more of these please. On and in the next one I want some footage of you playing the game you are reviewing, they amuse me!

50 GEEEEEEES!!!!!

Hah nice one Ash. Loved the ending, the passion I love. Yeah Batman Arkham Asylum was a great game, which totally surprised me since Rocksteady ltd isn’t that big, I never heard of them since Batman AA, great company. I looked them up just before they released the game, actually. They have a Swedish Junior Artist there, I wanted to get in myself but to no avail.

Yeah they really created a masterpiece with this one, I’ve never encountered such fun combat-mechanics, I mean Assassins Creed is fun and all but it’s nothing compared to Batman AA. It’s kind of addicting.

I totally loved the atmosphere of the game, they had some really great music put in there, and the way you encountered different environments without leaving the Asylum was really nice. My biggest complaint would probably be the last boss-fight, it’s a common complaint though many games can’t seem to pull them off. To me they’re always so easy, always these typical patterns etc etc.

I wish there were some more to it, I kinda liked what Shadow of The Colossus did for the bossfights, totally new and exciting. If you haven’t played I really think you should. It’s art in both graphics and design. (for the ps2 though, but still an epic experience)

I didn’t feel it was that short but just right despite the fact I played it on normal and found it very easy. The riddles weren’t that hard for me either but I knew a bit about the Batman(/DC) universe and did watch the cartoons religiously.

Surprised you got it on Xbox 360 as the PS3 version lets you play the arenas as The Joker; so worth it as he is one of my favourite fictional characters of all time!

I loved the game. I usually don’t play a game again once I’m finished. But I found myself playing it after I beat it, for a little bit.

Hey Mash, you’re welcome to come to me with any Batman related trivia. Can’t believe you didn’t know Two Face’s name was Harvey Dent. There’s been TWO batman movies (including the latest one) featuring Two Face. D’oh!
