So after completing my last play through I decided: Batman Arkham Asylum was going to be the first game I’d ever 100% completed. With Arkham Asylum however, I’ve gone through the game five times on hard and three on normal. I just don’t see the point if you know the plot twists then really you are just going through the motions. ![]() To say that I enjoy the game would be an understatement and people who know me will tell you that I rarely play the same game twice, unless it’s for multiplayer, and never for achievements. This is something I have not seen done so well in any other game and when mixed with the classic Batman storyline, an island filled with lunatics and murderers and a madman cackling while he tries to kill you, fully immerses the player. Playing through the game on hard difficulty switches off the UI symbols that help show how combat is playing out, meaning the player has to watch out for tell-tale animations from the enemies and combat them accordingly. The freeflow combat system allows the player to feel so connected to the main character that the combat becomes instinctive. I felt that way until Arkham Asylum.īatman Arkham Asylum, for me, is one of the greatest examples of action gameplay and a compelling story. I could never really understand why people would go to the trouble surely it’s just a frustrating, tedious task for nothing but a few extra gamer points and an achievement. To be honest, I’m not much of an achievement chaser usually it’s a case of playing through the main storyline, getting some multiplayer done if there is any and moving on to the next new game on the market. ![]() The 100% achievement, Perfect Knight, is mine. ![]() After a year of playing Batman Arkham Asylum, I finally finished it.
