Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

Demo was good, but not great enough to drop $60 for a singleplayer game. It can wait till next year. Next few months I'm going to be busy with the new sports titles.

I like the demo. I'm short of cash, so it's Gamefly for me.

I thoroughly enjoyed the demo, but buying it depends on how long it'll take on the higher difficulties along with the replayability, which seems to be nil.

I seem to recall that there are going to be a bunch of challenge levels which should add to the replayability. I will be picking this game up for sure. Especially because of the stealth elements. IMO there are not enough stealth based games like Hitman, Splinter Cell, MGS, etc.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

I can totally agree with the lack of good stealths. I just hope this can give me the hours I put into, say, the first or second Splinter Cell.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

I think the one thing this game will have going for it is its outdoor areas, places where you can roam a little bit more to your goal similarly to Uncharted instead of just being in narrow hallways. It sort of gives you more exploring space instead of just "following the recipe" if that makes sense. Plus I think there will be some nice batrang goals.

I will definitely have to rent this now that I think about it more.

And there's going to be more stuff you can do and look at. In the room where you keep that one guy from electrocuting the guard(I can't remember his name), there's a wall where you can place an explosive and go into a seperate room and there are a couple other places like that just in the demo.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

How do I glide and bust through the glass to take someone out?

It tells me the glass can be broken, but if a guy is under it, it won't give me the option to do a glide kick, and if I do a regular glide, I just land on it.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

I haven't read about it online so maybe there is a way in the demo but I think that you have to have some equipment that's not available in the demo. I tried to throw the batarang at it, jump on it, and hit it but nothing happened.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

You have to stand on it and wait until the guy is underneath you and hit y. I don't think you can do a kick through the glass though.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

So I'm just guessing by the type of game this is, there is no online right?

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

You have to go in detective mode and look at one of the walls, there will be a crack in it and something will pop up telling you that you can blow the weak spot up with an explosive.

Lol, same things I tried.

Ahh, ok, I'll give that a try later.
