Ya it is. You get 2 bonuses out of the PS3 whereas the 360 has nothing to offer. I've seen both games in front of my eyes on the same tv and if I had to choose I would take the PS3 100/100 times. Doesn't make sense to choose 360 if you have both consoles and an internet connection, which most people do.

I've played the Joker challenge rooms and it's not worth getting it on ps3 if you get your multiplatform games on 360. I have both systems and both are online but since I don't get multiplatform games for the ps3 it wasn't worth it.

Picked it up on 360. I figured I'd rather try to beat people on my
friends list in the challenges then play as the joker.

Even going through the story again on hard I'm having a hard time putting this game down. I love it. I would love to be able to glide more in the next game. Gliding from the clock tower outside Arkham is beautiful.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

Have you any of you guys got the glide for more then 100 m achievement yet? I already did but I wanted to know how you guys got it.

I think I got mine by gliding from the clock tower in to the cemetery was pretty cool.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

How do you get to the clock tower? I've been trying to get the gliding acheivement for awhile.

That's exactly how I got the PS3 gliding trophy.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

got it the same way (didn't even know there was a glide achievement) . Also I glided from the clock tower out into the ocean. pretty cool.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

Achievement questions...

I'm guessing u get the party pooper achievement by fighting instead of walking by the party goers? Not trying to give spoilers so being vague.

How do u get the mano a mano achievement? Which beast do u fist fight?

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

What a fantastic game! I finished this last night and from start to finish was great, except for the fight with the Joker. I think the team may have run out of gas, lol! I found it to be a bit underwhelming at the end, but other than that, I hope that we get a sequel. It seems like we might know who are next villain could be with the radio call so that could be cool.

I can't believe how nice the UE3 turned out considering its age. I really like the damage to Batman's batsuit throughout the game. It really added to the game.

Does anyone know if there are other batsuits that are unlockable for the main game?

Now that I have beaten the game, can I resume off of my save to look for more of Riddler's puzzles?

I wonder how tough it is on Hard as Normal did give me a good challenge in certain areas.

For the moment this wins out game of the year for me, but I have a feeling that it could be dethroned by CODMW2..........especially if that game is anywhere near as immersive as the first one.

Kudos to Rocksteady for a job well done.

There is a armored batsuit that is only usable for challenge rooms. I don't think there are extra ones for the main game.

You can go back and get all the Riddler Challenges. Just hit the continue bottom and you can roam an empty Arkham looking for them.

I played on Hard and I didn't find it that difficult. A couple of the Boss fights were a little challenging and you defiantly had to be more precise in the stealth parts since if you were seen, the bullets either did enough damage to kill you or leave you will little life. I didn't find the hand to hand combat hard at all, you just have to look to counter more and evade.

I agree the game was amazing and the Joker fight definatly could have been better. Of course I was getting a little pissed at it since I was hitting b extremely fast and the Joker keep on breaking free before I got him down. I guess on hard the may it harder to pull him down or something. I didn't like it because you really fought his goons instead of him.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

Man I'm really late to this party...

Just played the demo. Can you jump in this game? Seems to be such a ridiculous omission from a Batman game!

And, again, judging from the demo alone, it's difficult to see how some can call this the best superhero game ever? Seems to be a great game... wouldn't mind a run through once... but greatest Superhero game ever? I can name 2 Spiderman games better than this one.

And Marvel UA shouldn't be overlooked that easily as well...

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

You cant jump in this, I know, seem a little crazy that you cant.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

While the demo is defiantly just a small slice of the game to say the least considering how big the island really is. And to be honest the parts they picked for the demo were not anywhere near the best parts of the game in my opinion.

To me this is hands down the best Superhero game because they nailed down what it really would feel like to be Batman. I can't say any part of the game wasn't executed almost perfectly from the story, combat to the villians either. The Riddler challenges as a little mini sidequest were great as well.

I did rent it though because after the main story, collecting the Riddler Challenges and playing the challenge rooms I wasn't going to go back and playthrough again since I played on Hard the first time. That doesn't take away from the fact that it was still an amazing expierence the first time though similar to a game like Bioshock that may not be a buy to some people but is still a great game.

Does it really matter if their is no jump button considering you can still jump up to ledges using a when it prompts and the game has an auto jump when you run for gaps. What exactly would be the purpose of a jump button?

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

Pared, try the full game and you will not be disappointed. I always felt like Spiderman 2 was one of the best superhero games and same goes with Marvel Ultimate Alliance..............but this one is fantastic and sucks you right in. I never felt bored or the urge to put it down and play something else. The demo is ok, but again, doesn't give you the whole feel of the game.
