Batman's Not Supposed to kill people, but batman arkham asylum pc download I've done in Batman: Arkham Asylum come close. Batman hits people. He hits people really, really hard, batman arkham asylum pc download. There are thugs who might now wish they were dead, as they sit, traumatised in some grotty batman arkham asylum pc download ward while an unsympathetic nurse thrusts spoonfuls of lumpy semolina down their gob, batman arkham asylum pc download.
Once, in the Records Room, Batman leapt high into the air towards a stunned goon who was standing with his back to a banister. On his way down he let fly a devastatingly powerful punch, cracking once as it connected with the man's skull, and once again as his head made contact with the ornamental railing.
His head was pinned between an immovable object and the locomotive fist of a highly-skilled martial artist. If it'd been any other game, his cranium would pop open like a squeezed grape, his eyes pinging about the room like ping pong balls.
In Arkham Asylum though, enemies fall unconscious, asleep, dreaming about being beaten up by a man dressed as a bat. That makes Arkham Asylum safe. It is violent, but in the same way that spearing a man in the chest in Mini Ninjas turns him into a bouncing fox, Batman's non-lethal takedowns are wholesome.
That, or Bruce Wayne is deluded. He's programmed his detective-o-vision to detect fictional pulses in the corpses of the men he's beaten to death, in order to shield himself from the awful truth: that he's a murderer just as psychotic as the villains he seeks to imprison.
Watch one of Arkham Asylum's unconscious bodies for half an hour - they're not going anywhere. At the least they're in comas. Batman is putting people in comas. Christ, Batman. Stop it! Creating An Immersive atmosphere is key to the success of any classic game, but never more so than when you have to capture the essence of a beloved character like Batman. So Batman: Arkham Asylum could easily become the gaming equivalent of Bob Hoskins in Super Mario Bros or Mark Wahlberg in Max Payne.
It had to be a concern when this new Batman game was first announced and, until you've actually had a chance to get your hands on it, it'll probably remain one. Thankfully, any question of Rocksteady borking Batman in a Joel Schumacher style can be dismissed - there's no question that Arkham Asylum will be nothing but pleasingly great.
While I'm no expert on all things Batman, it definitely seems to sit perfectly in the universe the Caped Crusader inhabits. In fact if there's one thing that strikes you about Arkham Asylum it's the atmosphere, which feels perfectly dark and disturbing.
Part of this is down to the rendering of the characters in cutscenes, but mostly it is because of the superb voice acting, batman arkham asylum pc download. The supporting cast does an excellent job of making the world come alive, much like in the Chronicles of Riddick games, which Batman definitely pays tribute to in the extensive opening sequence where Bats escorts the Joker deep into the Asylum's complex, batman arkham asylum pc download.
Mark Hamill is particularly great as Joker, providing an excellent foil to Batman's straight man routine. You'll never tire of being interrupted or pestered by the madcap psychopath - Hamid's performance really is brilliant.
Hamill is joined by Kevin Conroy, who has voiced Batman's appearances in cartoons sincestarting with the classic Batman: The Animated Series. Reuniting Hamill and Conroy certainly adds to the atmosphere of authenticity Rocksteady are trying to create, although Conroy's performance means you may be a little bit bored with Batman's role, dulled as it is by his stoic attitude in every situation.
Still, we're confident it won't make too much difference, the interplay between kooky villains and a stoic iron-jawed hero being something tried and tested through the ages in various different types of media. Tfiere's also absolutely loads of stuff to do.
The main storyline is good enough to keep you forging forward, but the sheer amount of optional items to search for is mind-boggling. Riddler tokens, strange Spirit of Arkham symbols, and interview tapes batman arkham asylum pc download just a few of the things you'll be scouring the undergrowth to find.
Intricate level design has been a major part of the development process, with many of the more expansive areas such as the the Asylum's grounds containing a large array of nooks and crannies to explore. Keep finding these objects and you'll unlock a whole host of extra goodies that you can ogle from the main menu.
If you've played The Batman arkham asylum pc download, you'll have a good idea of how Arkliam Asylum's combat system works. Clown-masked thugs approach you from various angles - often in large groups -and you left-click to thump them. If one decides he wants to try doing the same to you, shiny blue indicators appear above his head that tell you he's about to come a-clobbering.
A swift right-click will put paid to his nefarious ideas, delivering a quick counter-attack to send the assailant flying. Stand-up melee batman arkham asylum pc download is tempered by the use of stealth, which looks to be infinitely more satisfying.
Perch on a conveniently placed, and shadowed, gargoyle and wait for an enemy to wander from the pack. Then you pick them off one by one. That is the best way to approach combat in this game. Most places where bad guys gather seem to have multiple places to strike from. Once during this playtest I hid Bats under a grating in the floor, letting him pop up behind batman arkham asylum pc download thug to deliver a silent takedown, before zipping up to a gargoyle.
From this vantage point I watched as fearful confusion spread among Joker's goons, before swooping down onto them. In terms of plot, environment, atmosphere and all that sort of gubbins, batman arkham asylum pc download, we're certain Arkluim Asylum will satisfy all but the most nitpicking of fanboys.
But hold back from soiling your official Batman duvet in fevered anticipation just yet, and wait until next month's review when you'll see our final verdict on Rocksteady's effort. As A Rule of thumb, superhero games are, batman arkham asylum pc download, almost without exception, complete rubbish. We're talking the officially licensed ones here, not stuff like Freedom Force or City of Heroes. You know, ones that have often have "The Game" tacked on as a subtitle.
Would Batman : Arkham Asylum have been as good if it was riding the back of a big movie license? We're not sure, batman arkham asylum pc download, but we're glad it isn't, because, freed from any restrictive release schedule, Rocksteady have been able to craft what is perhaps the greatest superhero game ever made. You can stop mopping that brow, as the long months of worrying have come to an end.
The game does have problems, but this is a game that has been made by people who genuinely care about the source material and have taken great delight in cramming as much as they possibly can into a great game. There's hundreds of items to find and riddles to solve that perfectly complement the main game.
There's the argument that the main game could be a little thin if you took out all the extraneous trappings, batman arkham asylum pc download, but we don't subscribe to that viewpoint. The game starts with old Bats delivering the recaptured Joker to Arkham Asylum - the Gothic mansion-turned-sanatorium where Gotham City's most ghastly and diabolical villains reside, all of whom harbour some sort of grudge against Batman.
Actually, it's mainly the same grudge - he beat them up and dropped them off in the madhouse. Once at the Asylum, Joker is strapped to a gurney and wheeled along by some guards, Batman following close behind. As an initial setup to stoke up atmosphere, it works very well. Of course, everything starts to go hideously wrong, Joker escapes and Batman is forced to make up for the inept Asylum security staff and save the day. We won't spoil the plot from here on in, but it does take some twists and turns as it develops.
Most importantly, it always feels like a proper Batman story, which, given that it was penned by Paul Dini of Batman: The Animated Series fame, isn't surprising at all. Above all, it's engrossing and makes you want to see what the next twist is.
Building an atmosphere around this storyline was perhaps the most important task the developers had to face, maybe even more so than the actual gameplay. In this they have undoubtedly succeeded, creating a rich, varied world for the player to explore. The game is based on the Unreal Engine 3, so things can look a bit plasticy at times, but the Asylum's architecture is impressive, the levels are full of off-the-beaten-track areas to explore, and frame rates are consistently impressive, even when in the big outdoor areas or when playing on mediocre systems.
As for sound, this is perhaps the most impressive element. The voice talent for the game is excellent, with particular praise heading in Mark Hamill's direction for his superlative performance as the Joker. Batman is as dry and monotone as ever, of course, and the villains certainly steal the show, as they've always done. This is where things get a little more complicated.
Batman arkham asylum pc download temptation is to look past the combat and focus purely on the storytelling and the main bulk of the game, but that would be doing you, the reader, a disservice. Certainly, if a reviewer were only to play the early stages of the game, batman arkham asylum pc download, combat wouldn't really be a major issue for him or her to deal with.
But once you start getting into the meat of the game, it does become a problem. On paper, it must have looked great, though. It works in a similar way to The Witcher's melee system, as in it's all about timing your attacks to chain combos that do great damage Get up to eight consecutive hits and you open up once unlocked in the Upgrades section throws and other extra moves. The problem is that the animation gets in the way, especially when you're trying to block an attack.
Sometimes Batman will leap to strike an enemy, but this animation will be so long that even if you time a block effectively, batman arkham asylum pc download, you'll be struck. Later on, batman arkham asylum pc download, when you're facing massive groups of thugs all at once, this can get intensely frustrating. There's definitely something to be said, just like in The Witcher, for attempting to time your clicks, but when things get frantic, it's sorely tempting to just hammer the left mouse button and hope for the best Boss battles aren't much better either, with the usual arbitrary way of killing big monster trope in effect.
Really though, other than this there's not much wrong with the gameplay, and it's also important to note that this only affects the big -and rare - mob-style combat, batman arkham asylum pc download.
When fighting smaller groups you can time your blocks and attacks more effectively and everything flows better, batman arkham asylum pc download. There are also the numerous sections where you're advised to use stealth and cunning to pick off enemies. These are the best bits, combat-wise, with later situations requiring you to plan what the best way to eliminate the threat is. The theory is that there are often multiple methods available to achieve this goal, but it's an illusion of freedom.
Yes, you can crawl under the floor gratings and take someone down from below, but often they just spot you before you have the chance. If you have the patience, spectacular room clearances can be achieved. Most of us batman arkham asylum pc download just settle for glide kicks and hanging from gargoyles and stringing thugs up by the feet.
The gameplay also feels perfectly at home on the PC. Pleasingly, you don't have to shove the mouse sensitivity up to extreme levels because the game was designed solely with pads in mind. There's also no "Press Right Trigger to perform this action" nonsense when using the mouse and keys either. Everything feels smooth and natural, enabling you to zip about from ledge to ledge with impressive fluidity.
This is crucially important, because one of the most enjoyable parts of the game is completing the Riddler's challenges. There are number of extra-curricular activities to partake of in Arkham Asylum, most of which involve the tried- and-tested-to-boredom idea of collecting tokens that lie about in hidden and not-so-well-hidden places.
For some reason that I can't fully explain, I thoroughly enjoyed hunting down all the Riddler trophies small green question marks that litter each area of the game.
As well as these, batman arkham asylum pc download, there are audio logs referring to various villains and the creator of the asylum - Amadeus Arkham - which help those who aren't knowledge about Batman arkham asylum pc download lore better understand what's going on.
Scuttling Joker teeth can be destroyed as another of these ongoing tasks, granting experience which can batman arkham asylum pc download used to unlock new abilities, like more special moves.
