Batman Arhkam Asylum Gameplay
How someone that likes dressing up in spandex managed to look so cool, I'll never know.Published 30/03/2009 at 9:53 by Pixl1983
I’ve been secretly excited for this for quite some time. With my hopes confirmed by this awesome slice of gameplay footage I now feel I can express my anticipation accordingly. This game looks the nuts! There have been many developers that have tried and failed to capture the essence of the dark knight, mostly resorting to bad fight mechanics and the Batarang as a replacement for a gun.
None have ever been elevated above a possible rental. None have ever come as close to what you’re about to see. It’s like a bad ass Splinter Cell but with cape gliding. Check out the clip at Euro Gamer but be sure to come back and join me in the comments for some agreeing nods and girly screams.

Looks sweet,
Stealth is something a batman game has been needing for ever

I agree
But I hate stealth, it’s all guns blazing or nothing for me I’m afraid.

Don’t get me wrong, guns are fun, but surely you’d like a bit of variety?

I’m a bit gung-ho myself when it comes to games to be honest.

This might actually be worth a purchase, it’s looking good.

It’s got no hope with me if it’s releasing in June, that’s the same month as Prototype…

This always looked awesome. Now it looks 500% more awesome.

Looking great! I like that you can choose to use whatever degree of stealth that you want – so you can be very stealthy, not stealthy at all, or probably more likely somewhere in the middle.

That is looking a lot better than I thought it was going to be.
Am I the only one not bothered about inFamous or Prototype?

your not the only one not interested in BOTH but usually one or other other

True that. Have to admit, if I was to lean either way it’d probably be towards Prototype – but they look much of a muchness really.

I’m also secretly excited about this. What also excites me though is that the Collector’s Edition (not that I could afford it) is coming packaged with an actual 12″ replica Batarang! Time to go kick some bad guy ass!
