Batman: Arkham Asylum Game of the Year Edition

Having now played both Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham Origins, I can confidently say that I enjoyed Arkham Asylum more. Which is funny, because it's the older game. The premise is simple: Batman escorts Joker into Arkham Asylum, only for Joker to reveal that the whole thing was a setup. What follows is one long night of chaos as Batman fights his way through escaped inmates, supervillains. Arkham Asylum feels isolated, dangerous, and unpredictable. Every area has its own personality, from the creepy medical facilities to the abandoned tunnels and botanical gardens. The entire island feels like a character itself, and the game does a fantastic job making you feel trapped alongside Batman. Game was not as good as the later batman games as alot of mechanics is missing but it gives the right amount for a early 2008 and old game. Alot of Factors are missing from Origins But I enjoyed this one more as there is no bugs. (Funny Thing is I Made this review right after finishing Origins but i finished Arkham Asylum First! xD) Achievements was slightly easier to obtain as well. Less stress. Less Pain. The predator sections are also some of my favorite parts of the game. There's something satisfying about silently taking down enemies one by one while they slowly realize they're being hunted by Batman. The villains are excellent as well. Joker completely steals the show, but Scarecrow, Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, Bane, and Killer Croc all have memorable moments throughout the story. Unlike some of my frustrations in Arkham Origins, Arkham Asylum gave me a much smoother experience overall. I spent more time enjoying the game than fighting bugs, achievement issues, or broken side content. Is it perfect? No. The game definitely shows its age in some areas, and some boss fights are stronger than others. But even today, Arkham Asylum remains one of the best superhero games ever made and a fantastic introduction to Batman's world. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Ancient But Golden For Its Time.

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.

Esse game é basicamente o protótipo da franquia, trazendo diversos conceitos interessantes, mas ainda precisando de polimento. Ele traz um gameplay divertido, uma ambientação fantástica, trilha sonora e efeitos de som incríveis, dentre outras coisas. Uma das coisas que mais gostei, que vale a pena mencionar, é o comportamento dos inimigos que muda conforme o Coringa fala pelo sistema de som do asilo e conforme você derrota alguns deles. Quando você tá derrubando um por um em stealth, eles vão ficando desesperados e acabam se assustando até com sons ambientes, e isso eu achei fantástico.
