GAME REVIEW – Batman: Arkham?Asylum
With Christopher Nolan successfully rebooting Batman on the silver screen in recent years, the dark knight is pretty hot property right now. I didn't realise before writing this review, but there have actually been a lot of Batman games over the years, usually to tie in with the various film...

Batman: Arkham Asylum review (PS3)
Arkham Asylum is one of those places that could only exist in a fantasy world. I mean, if you have a slew of deranged geniuses with the cunning and resourcefulness to break out of any jail at any time, why would you try to collect them all in one place?

"True classic"
One of the best of this gen, a real classic and the first in an excellent series of batman games. Redefines the batman name in gaming and plays well alongside the dark knight trilogy. A must for any batman fan, or just a video game fan.

"Best of the Arkham Games"
This is the first in the series of Arkham games. There are three within the series: Asylum, City and the prequel Origins. Arkham Asylum is most definitely the best by far! I have never been so addicted to a game before this.
Pros:
- great story
- linear story line
- enjoyable
Cons:
- graphics not up to par with modern games

Batman: Arkham Asylum review
We've been eagerly waiting for this Batman release for some time now, and fortunately we weren't disappointed. Developer Rocksteady Studios has created an exemplary game that, whilst not without flaws, will keep fans happy for months to come.
Pros:
- The gameplay/controls are simple but perfect for what they are trying to do
- Fun story to follow
- The Joker is awesome
- You really feel like Batman
- Lots to do and explore
- Tons of wonderful toys to play with
- Good mix of stealth and combat
- Some fun boss fights.
Cons:
- Riddles and hidden items can ruin the pacing
- Some riddles may make you feel like you are missing something when in fact they cannot be solved/found until you reach a certain plot point
- Lots of boring backtracking to find items
- Gargoyle statues can simplify stealth gameplay a bit too much

Batman: Arkham Asylum
The start of the Arkham Asylum story arc. Battle against the Joker and stop his plans for destruction. Impressive open world environments with fluent movement. Very Batman feel with gadgets and detective vision. Available on all major platforms.
Pros:
- Mood and tension – Batman feel – Open world – Fluent gameplay
Cons:
- Odd glitches – Some poor level design

Batman: Arkham Asylum
Not only a brilliantly authentic presentation of its subject matter but a tremendous game in its own right, Batman: Arkham Asylum is a big, clever and finely crafted experience which propels Rocksteady immediately into the realm of triple-A developers. This year's BioShock. That's what it is.
Pros:
- The superbly
- nightmarishly realized Arkham
- The brutally satisfying stealth and combat
- How right the whole thing feels
Cons:
- A couple of unnecessary
- overly traditional boss fights
- Maybe missing a couple of your favorite villains
- Finally finishing it
