[Official] Batman: Arkham Asylum

[Tech Star]

I can't remember the name of it, but use the thing that you use to disable the electronic gates.

Finished the main story. What an awesome game. Now I just need to start on the challenges and get the rest of the Riddler puzzles.

I will go and try that now. :/ I went around the whole area 2-3 times looking for a tunnel or something, but I didn't find anything. :p

I just realized this game reminds me a lot of Bioshock. The design of the "inmates" are a lot like splicers. The feel of it and some of the level design. The collecting tapes. I wonder if the developers used it as an inspiration.

The gadget you use is cryptographic sequencer. I believe it's the lower right arrow on the pad. You should be able to see it if you use detective mode, I believe it?s the left bumper button.

I just saw a review and heard Batman talk. Its great that they got the Kevin Conroy from the Batman cartoon in the 90's to do the voice and Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) for the Joker. I cant wait to get this on the PC.

It also has a few more 90's Batman alumni: Mark Hammill as the Joker, the actress that did Harley Quinn (don't know her name) and the creator of the 90's cartoon wrote the script. If you liked the 90's cartoon, you'll LOVE this!!

eh.. oh well.. I"m gonna probably gonna try and get it tommorow. If none, I"m not gonna go cry about it.. since I'm almost done the game anyway lol.

Get it if you can. (Y)

I don't really think you need it for the missions as they are self-explanatory on what you need to do and where to go. The only hard thing is getting all the Riddler's trophies, the arachnid thingies, and the Riddler's riddles. :p

What parts are in depth?

Perhaps, but I wouldn't know. I've yet to play the full game. As for the strategy guide, just about every part is in-depth. It does a good job at explaining the various things it explains (hehe).

Bought it this morning, went to Tesco at 6:30am. There was 2 copies for X360 and 1 copy for PS3, that all they had left???

So I got the PS3 version for the Joker DLC. I was surprised not many copies left at all, unless people went at midnight or something...

Wont get to play until later tonight :(

It reminded me so much I've started playing Bioshock again.

Copy arrived, at least it came on release day but I'm used to getting it a day or two early with ShopTo :p

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

What you doing on Neowin then!!! Get busy playing :p

Just played about an hour, loving this so far.

The joker is absolutely awesome :D Great voice acting and script.

Such a tease how some of the riddler trophies obviously can't be gotten until you unlock a new powerup/change something later then backtrack. I heard once the game is complete though it lets you free roam to finish collecting extras.

By the way I hope the new PS3 cases when rolled out deal with this ****

These should be stickers not permanent... (N)

What are planning to do? Frame it? It's just a game box.

Your post is even more worthless than the badges.

AudioBoxer yep once you finish it, you can free roam and collect everything you left behind..

and make sure you BATARANG every set of those chattering teeth you find, it will make getting all the trophies alot easier at the end of the game!

QFT.

I like to see the box art on a game, otherwise we should just have blank white covers with logos etc

OMG you telling me that's an achievement/trophy? :(

[FiB3R]

Called the summer dry season, it happens. :p

Not really m8, I've got a tone of games here that I haven't come close to finishing. This one just seems to keep calling me back. Maybe I'm out of my not playing so much faze :woot:

Thanks for the heads up I will do that when I start playing tonight.

Anyone got a rough play time on this?

Hate spending 60$ for a game and have it only last like 15-20 hours.

The story itself took me around 5-6 hours and then another hour or so finding teeth and riddles. Not to mention the challenges that would take lot of time.

[Tech Star]

Finally Audio you got it! :p If you didn't get it today, I thought you might go crazy having to wait during the weekend also for it to arrive. :p

I haven't actually laughed out loud on the forums in a long, long time.

That's disappointing. :( I'm not really an achievement ###### either...
