DirtyLarry Veteran Posted August 8, 2009 Veteran Share Posted August 8, 2009 My biggest beef with the demo is one very simple, basic thing, and that is crouch is right trigger. I can never do the "crab" style with any controllers (two seperate fingers on trigger and shoulder pad), it just winds up hurting my hand after about a minute of trying, so pulling off crouch and Y (hit someone by sneaking up or when they are down) just feels really akward to me. Hoping you can map it custom on the consoles but I doubt it. I also did check it out on both PC and 360, and I do have a GTX 285 which is a PhysX card so got to see the difference there and overall graphics were just a bit better on PC, so I will rent it on the 360 but very well may play it on the PC with a controller as then I can probably map the controls to something a bit different with the crouching. But overall a good game it seems, although CQC with multiple people was a tad not that much fun gameplay wise, I like the other aspects of it enough to overlook that I believe.

sn00pie Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 I thought the control scheme was excellent and well layed out. My only gripe is those stupid action scenes were you have to keep pressing X to open the door or whatever...doesn't feel right with the rest of the game. A simple cut-scene would suffice in those types of scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted August 8, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted August 8, 2009 I thought the control scheme was excellent and well layed out. My only gripe is those stupid action scenes were you have to keep pressing X to open the door or whatever...doesn't feel right with the rest of the game. A simple cut-scene would suffice in those types of scenes. Batman just carrying out the action in real time would suffice. I agree, I have no idea why I need to constantly rip grates off walls by mashing X, it should just be automatic. I mean, GoW does that a lot, but it's usually for ripping someone's head off which I guess gives a little bit more 'contextual enjoyment' than "OMG IM TAKING A GRATE OFF A WALL, TAKE THIS FINGER MASHING CONTROLLER".

(Spork) Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Just got done playing the demo. Overall pretty fun but I'm worried about detective mode. I know the demo just wanted you to experience it but I felt like I was having to use it the whole time instead of just being able to experience the game. We'll see how the game turns out. really i never used it like that ( not that i wouldn't ) the games eye candy is just sexy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yusuf M. Veteran Posted August 10, 2009 Veteran Share Posted August 10, 2009 Are you guys serious? She's a fictional character.... Anyway, I'm about to try out the demo for PC. I also have it downloaded on my brother's PS3 but I'm more inclined to try out the PC version first. What can I say? I'm a PC gamer at heart.

S00N3R FR3AK Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Well I have kind of lost intrest in the game but Im gonna say after running through the PC demo off steam Im bout ready to buy it day one. had planned to buy it on the 360 but found the PC contorls fine. Plus Ive been meaning to get a controller for the PC anyway so I might as well with this game. Overall very excited now and look forward to what looks for sure to be the best batman game ever(though sadly that isn't hard). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vault Boy Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I was really pleased with this demo. The game feels really fluent and polished. Full game will no doubt be a pleaser! It has a big budget studio feel to it that you dont usually get with these sort of games. i.e. The hulk, spiderman, iron-man etc. I dont think I even bought myself to finish the demos let alone play the full game.

t0mbi Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 So um, how do i blow up the wall after i glide kick that baddie with scars all over him? When your flying from gargoyle to gargoyle for the first time? Where do i go next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baines Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 There's a grate you can open up and crawl in on the opposite wall from the destructible wall. I couldn't find a way to blow it up so I assume it will be an option in the full game, or maybe it will be for replay value ie. you unlock blowing-up-walls in a later stage and will have to replay that stage to get that secret/unlock/whatever.
