.......HOLY SHIT.........(practically says it all) In the past batman games I have been FREQUENTLY dissapointed, but this one allows not only unbelieveable fighting abilities, but a great history of the psychos that Batman has put into the asylum, such as The Joker, The Riddler, Killer Croc and even Bane and Poison Ivy. The fighting styles are great due to the fact that, just like in the movies, Batman makes it look too easy to take down a 7 foot mutant running at you, full speed. You just to end up jumping on his back and turning him to attack the little guys with a clean sweep of a giant arm. The game starts out as Batman is turning The Joker in to the asylum, after catching him, chaining him up and walking through the halls of the prison. The Joker has planted a trap and escapes into the prison where the ever sexy Harley Quinn has taken over for him. She is controlling electric doors, making elevators drop and surrounding herself with thugs. Of course, Batman plans ahead for such things. Having an unlimited amount of batarangs and X-ray goggles, allowing him to see enemies through walls and items everywhere. As you get accustomed to this view of skeletons, you miss out on the pure genious that the programmers put into the game, making such small details unbelieveable. The PS3 version allows you to play as The Joker as he takes over the Asylum, but sadly I was unable to play that version (sad panda face). Still, it was a VERY brilliant game. I give this game an A, way too good to be an A- not only from the fights and ways to take them down, but the detailed work. Not good enough for A+ because even though you want to look at everything in actual view, you can't help but look at everything in X-Ray vision, so you don't get blind sighted by a shooting thug (By the way, if you get shot a few times, not even Batman's bulletproof vest can protect him for more than a few seconds.) |
