![]() ![]() The secrets maps help a lot but it still is a challenge and it does add material to the game rather than just charging through the main story. Although not a huge free-roam world like Red Dead etc, Arkham Asylum still has lots to explore and find. ![]() The cut-scenes are well used and do not come too frequently. Since it is a computer game the story is episodic but it still manages to flow pretty well and be quite cinematic in nature. These were my favourite sections and I do enjoy the additional challenge mini-games you can do in the same format. The game play is impressive in terms of the straight story you'll be called on to work out how to get to places by using your eyes and the gadgets available to you you'll have combat where your timing and skills are pushed in terms of pulling of combos, blocking and countering attacks but you'll also have stealth sections against armed foes where you get to be the shadowy Batman - taking them out one at a time and disappearing back into the shadows as your increasingly panicked enemies try and find where you are. Once I got over this hump though and got the feel for how Batman: AA plays and works, I got into it very quickly and found a very well designed game that features plenty of colour, plenty of variety and was a good solid challenge without ever being frustratingly difficult (in normal setting anyway). Partly this is my age meaning I'm not as good at switching between controls as I was, but also a reflection on how much I enjoyed AC:B. I came to this game after finishing the excellent Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood and if I'm honest I did struggle to make the jump. ![]()
