Batman: Arkham Asylum

[tris-]

No to all of the above. Im pretty sure I would of died fairly quickly if i did that.

I'm not sure I get all the hype on this, it's aright, nothing great. I'll probably rent it, as it seems to not have much re-playability.

It does have some sort of challenge mode not sure what it's about or if it's any good mind you.

I was pretty hyped until i read this i just hope a few other reputable gaming sites give it a good score to keep this on my preorder list.

dont look at any of the big sites then. because they are just as "dirty" now.

if u want proper reviews look at the small sites that the publishers dont care about.

impressive. A 9 from Eurogamer.

If you want a real review, just wait for Yahtzee to do one.

Oh yeah, don't see the fascination with this game either, given I haven't played it.

 

[nath]

Yahtzee hates almost everything though, there's plenty of entertainment to be had in the shit that he dismisses.

 

[Billargh]

Nvm, don't fancy coming across as pretentious, you're not wrong though.

 

[nath]

Pretentious how?

 

[Billargh]

Putting too much trust/faith (for lack of a better word) in him. What I was going to say seemed like I was kissing his arse a tad.

Billargh loves Yathzee!

I'll wait till the price has dropped quite a bit I'm not much of a gamer these days - Fifa10 is going to change that though.

I should have my copy on Monday as I ordered from some dodgy Dutch website who were shipping the game last Monday a friend who ordered with them has had the game since wednesday!! They ship via dhl so can track it

 

[Aada]

My copy just arrived will post later on what I think.

 

[Garaen]

I only watched Yathzee for the entertainment factor, if i want a proper review of a game he would be the last place i'd look

arf, bad news if it's true

Actor's resume lists Rocksteady-developed 'Hitman5'

Not sure why that's bad news.

However Hitman 5 has been a long time coming and Hitman Blood Money was probably my first game on the 360 I 1000g'd on I loved it that much.

it has been taken away from the guys who made the last 4 and know how a Hitman game works. It's a complex game, and I don't want to see some of the shitty batman AI in it

Well the AI wasn't great in Any of the Hitman games they all followed set paths and didn't do anything different until you messed up lol.

yet was way better than the batman AI. I can easily see them mess it up by trying to add their personal touch.

 

[Bullitt]

It's nice of you to pigeonhole the developer, but the fact of the matter is they'll be perfectly aware of the fan base built up on the Hitman IP and if something does change it'll probably be for the better given the studios rep.

I look forward to seeing some trailers/screenshots to see what they're doing with it, given the art direction on Batman:AA was sublime.

How is it better? The AI in either game is pretty rubbish, they will make the hitman series better don't put them into a box.

Lets make no mistake that IO were not the best developer in the world the Hitman games should have been far better then what they released so a fresh developer and one with a decent track record can't be a bad thing.

 

[Ch3tan]

So instead of making the mistake of assuming they will do worse, you are making the mistake of assuming they will do better? Correct?

It could go either way but these guys showed with Batman just how passionate they are about the games they develop and I prefer to think they will do well then worse.

I've played through the demo a few times now, and I'm not as impressed as you. I wouldn't like a hitman game that follows this title at all.

I wouldn't like that either because the two games are totally different and Hitman playing like Batman would not work.

Did you even think of that before you made this silly post?

 

[Ch3tan]

I'm following your example, you clearly do not think before making any of your posts.
