I bought this game based on initial reviews, and I was expecting a fun experience. Holy crap, am I disappointed! It’s very frustrating and confusing. There are a few fun parts, and, yes, it’s the best Batman game ever (but that’s not saying much), but even the good parts don’t make up for the bad; wait until it’s a “Platinum Hits” and get it for $19.99. Sorry, but this is a POS with decent (but rare) fighting scenes.
The graphics and sound are good, but this game is just a button masher. Fighting consists of pressing the same two buttons again and again.
Way too short. I finished this in 2 days. Puzzles and fighting are way too repetitive and easy. Batman stands right in the way of your view with a huge cape that blocks half the screen. There is very little in the way of upgrades, options, weapons (none), and zero customization. Online play is just time races or point scoring contests, all in single player mode (the online part is just to show you stats).
Str8 Trash, The graphics are so horrible & the gameplay is so un-inspiring that I sent it right back to game fly after playing for just 1 hour(maybe less). I cant even believe this is getting high ratings, thats laughable, 5 Stars??? Really?, seriously?? Why??, its beyond me. The graphics were a turn off from the very get go I had already giving it a 3 Stars then more and more factors started to lower its already bad rating, This is not a good first impression, these graphics are not acceptable, espeicially not a PS3 Game, it doesnt get much worse than this & thats going all the way back to Nintendo(the very 1st one). I cant judge the story cause like I said I didnt/couldnt finish playing but The Gaming is simple, its boring, controls- frustrating & the graphics are so awful to the point where I got nausea & head-aches just from playing, I mean im getting sick all over again hearing/seeing that PPL wanna call these Graphics “Amazing”, go play Heavy Rain or Uncharted 2 sweetie and compare it to this Rubbish. This is so over-rated. I could say it one thousand times: over-rated, over-rated, over-rated. Im gonna Stop here, This game doesnt deserve a long review anyway, 1 Star, actually a 0.
& I just found out that they’re releasing a Arkham Asylum 2 soon, hopefully they took a hint. Heres hoping the 2nd installment will raise the Bar.
I thought the game was quite boring. I just felt there was too much of crawling through duct work and messing with his special detective vision and way too little action. The enemies are easy to defeat and the AI is unintelligent. Batman actually moves like he is wearing a rubber suit that restricts his mobility, unless you’re mashing the attack button then he moves quite well. After playing infamous and getting used to how dynamic the action was, Batman is sorely lacking. And why is batman so big, I feel like I am constantly trying to look around him. I don’t know, I kept waiting for that moment when I think wow, this is awesome, but all I kept thinking was wow, this is boring.
