Hey, This is NHouseman giving you another review. This time for Batman Arkham Asylum.
The Basic storyline of this game is Batman(you) have just captured (easily) The Joker and are returning him to Arkham. He then breaks free and you find out that Harely Quinn and The Joker had an evil plan to mutate people into Bain without the huge pack on their back. You use your stealth, detective skills ( a lot) and your gadgets to help you through out the game.

The Controls are simple and user friendly.  EliteGD pointed out he didn’t like it because there was no jumping button, but keep in my mind if you have his grapple gun and line launcher to help you zip up to a ledge or glide across a hole or onto a gargoyle you don’t really need to jump.  Plus, if you double tap “A” you can evade or jump over a person to dodge a punch. The wepaons and armour can be upgraded throughout the game to help in your fight against Jokers henchmen.

The graphics are awesome, very detailed, but you lose a lot of it because you end up using detective mode a lot. They could have tweeked it so you didn’t lose the detail but still get to see the unseen.

You get to see a few of the characters. I haven’t completed it yet but you get to see The Joker (of Course), Harley Quinn, Killer Croc, Bain , Scarecrow, Mr Zsasz and Poison Ivy. Oh and I think a cameo of Clayface walking around in his cell. You also get sent on a wild goose chase by the Riddler looking for secret items like hidden Question mark trophies and spray paintings ( I’ll show you in the video I’ll post later) you have to find his clues through out the game and get awarded bonus info like Character tapes & maps & bios.

Overall I like this game! I Give it an 8 out of 10. I also Saved like Twenty dollars buying it at Wal-mart for $40 when everywhere else it was $60.

Next on my Choping Block NHL10. Did they fix the huge issues from NHL09 like the disk read errors that made me sell my game, or did they add more problems to the mix.
