    Default Batman: Arkham Asylum

    This game is made of mother****ing win. Just finished the demo, and even on older ATi hardware it's hauling fast. Absomother****ingloutely amazing. I didn't like the feeling of quicktime events, but playing through again just to get new buttwhoopin moves gives me much hope.

    The entire voice cast of TAS is there, and the action is much like the Dark Knight-MUCH brutality to be had.

    Crowning moment of the demo? "Oh My God, he's above us, we can't see him!" as I swoop down silently, clip the grapnel line to him and suspend him from a gargoyle. Pure Batman.

    ya i tried the demo for 360 and it's really good, will buy it when it drops in price.

    the only thing i don't really like is that you can't really recreate the moves, it sort of just happens automatically.

    I must amend best moment of the demo to when the Joker hops on the radio and says we're PRETTY sure Batman doesn't drink blood...

    I got it for 40 here at Walmart it's now 60 I see so good deal! It's pretty good so far, not very far in but was hoping for some more action and less "puzzles". Lots of neat upgrades like the double batarang ;p and setting traps with explosive gel woo!

    That's true but it would help with pacing IMHO

    Expect a full write-up on this ASAP. I'm already almost finished with the game, after that it'll just be challenges/Riddler trophies.
