Batman Arkham Asylum: Demo

SWEET MOTHER OF GOD

This is a game I would gladly wait in line for, playing the Demo, they have done an absolutely amazing job, of making this game...BATMAN!
other games...nah, not even the movies (although admittedly the movies were cool)
This game hopefully if its like what the demo is all the way through, will be the best seller for a good 3/4weeks in my eyes


Combat

Batman combat, in the movies and the comics, show some brutal takedowns and some sweet beatdowns, this game captures everything to do with the violence portrayed in the novels, not so much the movies, as they weren't as violent as they should have been...

Combos
Dodges
Takedowns
Inverted Takedown (basically an upside down grab...whilst hanging from a statue - SPOILER)
Batarangs

and In pure batman style, SLOW MOTION FINISHES!!!!


Cut-Scenes

With me personally, I can tell if a game is good within the first 20seconds (just from the cut-scenes)...this game, had my full attention, throughout all the cut-scene's...even on the 2nd time playing this game, I couldnt bring myself to skip the cut-scenes, it seemed, wrong... it would be pure evil...to skip the cut-scenes!

As soon...as I first saw the batmobile in the first cut-scene...I knew for a fact, this game was gonna be badarse (hopefully on the full release, you get to drive the batmobile...if not, still awesome) anyway I digress, the Demo...leaves you with quite possibly the greatest cliff-hanger ever


Environment

I am a very very picky gamer, most of the games I play involve awesome Environments...if the game has a sucky environment, poorly made blah blah blah, thats it...turned off, dont like it, luckily, Rocksteady Studio's, know what the hell they're doing!

Perfect, absolutely perfect, even when it comes down to the grates in the wall....grates on the floor, PURE GENIOUS!


Game Play

Overall the gameplay in the demo, left you wanting more (obviously cause its a demo) but yeah, awesome game, cant wait for it to be released :D


released on August 25, 2009 in North America and August 28, 2009 in Europe.
