    If you want to 100% this game, it's VERY IMPORTANT that you beat up the goons welcoming you to Joker's final party as it is the condition to earn the "Party Crasher" achievement. If you just walk in without attacking them, the achievement is lost for that run as you cannot earn it outside of the story once it completes.

    I think that part of what made Arkham Asylum really work for me--along with it being a solid game--was that it felt like a grown up version of Batman the Animated Series, which I watched as a kid. The voices of Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill along with some of the music cues just made it feel like coming back to something I loved as a kid but being able to enjoy it as an adult.

    I went into the Arkham games knowing little about DC other than that there was Batman, the Joker and the Penguin. Yet I still loved them to pieces. You don't need to know anything about the DC Universe when you play those games, anything you need to know is taught to you by the games allowing you to ease into them.
    Hell these games made me want to find out more about the DC Universe than I would have without these games. Arkham Asylum alone got me excited to play it barely a few minutes in, which is more than I can say for alot of games.
    Plus they're bloody damn well made games. They're easy to get into and have just enough difficulty at the right times.

      1. The Joker as a brute makes no sense and goes against the whole point of his character
      2. The fight itself is terrible. You don't fight Joker, you just avoid like 2 sets of 2 swings, and he goes up to let you fight his goons. Then you have to pull him down with the batclaw while his back is turned when he showboats for the helicopters, then repeat. So basically the fight is fighting normal enemies. And the fact that joker keeps turning his back to you and falling for the same thing is dumb.

The collecting is less bloated out and feels immediately rewarded, and there's something to be said for making every area in a relatively tight space characterful and important.

      Chemical Burns I think he'd like to, but the reason he and many other RUclipsrs put up one video a week is because of the way RUclips and its statistics work. I can't remember the specifics, but if you miss a week it's almost the equivalent of falling off the fact of the earth to RUclips.

    Despite my devotion to mostly sticking to jrpg's and anime style games. This is one of the few non-anime style games I really want to try when I have the free time to do so. I've been a big fan of batman: the animated series and I think Batman has one of the best rogue gallery of villains compared to every other superhero. I feel pretty confident that I will enjoy this game when I do play it and my wife is a very huge batman fan as well.

    • @Kpengie
      @Kpengie 9 лет назад

      Farmeryeti The Jim Lee art connection is primarily due to the fact that his art style is very realistic, though the one major difference in the Arkham visual style is that the colors are a lot darker.

    • @Farmeryeti
      @Farmeryeti 9 лет назад

      ***** Yeah, it is very similar now that I'm thinking about it.

Occasionally Jirard will stammer out some stuff, and I guess that's trying of it, but it's mostly just "whatever". It's certainly not funny, but it's unobtrusive.
