Batman Arkham Asylum
Overview: 10/10
This is one of the best games I have ever played. It has beautiful graphics, a clever and engaging storyline. Innovative gadgets and techniques and an autosave feature that actually works really well. Add to this tons of minipuzzles, collectables and hidden areas which make revisiting areas rewarding and I have no questions as to why it was game of the year 2010. If you haven't bought it already go out now and do so. Now!
Hints and Tips
- Batman gets some extra cool gizmos as the game goes on, take the time to revisit areas, previously inaccessable places will open up, rewarding you with Riddler trophies, patient interviews and more
- The hardest boss in the game is probably Scarecrow. The best advice I can give you is take your time! Always try to keep an eye out for your next hiding place and don't move til you're sure you're safe. It'll be quicker in the long run trust me.
- In every room use Batmans super sense (can't remember what it's called) you will notice a hell of a lot more, but don't leave it on permanently - part of the joy of this game is the exquisite graphics, don't miss out!
- Have patience, if there is a particular area you can't get to just now try coming back later when you have cooler gadgets.
