Batman: Arkham Asylum Game of the Year Edition

Genuinely and objectively one of the best games of all time. If you have a favorite superhero game, it's because of this game. If you have a favorite stealth game, it's because of this game (and mgs and splinter cell). If you like a game that has freeflow combat (sleeping dogs, spider-man, ghost of tsushima, etc) thank this game. While I like many games over this one, like its sequel, gaming would not be the same without this masterpiece. That's literally just objective fact. It's up there with Mario 64, Resident Evil 4 OG, Sonic Adventure, and Ocarina of Time with how influential it is. The actual gameplay is noticeably rougher than the standard today, but it's still so enjoyable. Just learn the fundamentals, and you'll be golden. The graphics are also really good for 2009. And the atmosphere is genuinely unlike anything else in the superhero genre, besides maybe Web of Shadows. And the story feels likes you're watching an episode from the animated series, and you might genuinely get scared sometimes. The game is just good, and the sequels are even better. Whether it's $20 or $8 on sale, it's worth it, I promise you. Though I do recommend waiting for the sale, since you can usually get the other arkham games for around $20 bucks altogether. The game is also a great starting point if you want to get into the superhero genre as a whole. It introduces characters and teaches you the basics about them without spending too much time on it. It also won't force you to learn about most of them if you don't care, but I highly suggest you pay at least a crumb of attention to the various character bios if you're in anyway interested in Batman lore. As of writing this review, I only have 21 hours, but that's only on PC. I have like 200 hours on Xbox, and I've beaten this game probably like 15 times at least. It's also just a good game to speedrun if you know enough about it, I've beaten it in one sitting multiple times. Just a great game, definitely a 10/10.

It's god awful... I never understood why so many people say it's good. Mad Max, Spiderman..... so many better games like this. I didn't like it on release, tried to give it another chance upscaled with mods....still hate it. Too much tedious nonsense, not enough fighting. Movement is slow and stiff depending on what you're doing....Cutscenes, voices, and story are a lot like a silly low budget cartoon.... I dunno, I just dont like it.

ottimo inizio di una grande saga. Un po'acerbo in confronto ai sequel, ma comunque una bomba che ogni videogiocatore dovrebbe provare almeno una volta

One of the best game I've ever played
