I just played through the demo.

I think it's awesome.

I'm happy to see it's getting such great reviews. I could tell it was going to be good from the demo, but I didn't think it would get this kind of reception.

Has anyone done the B + Y takedown yet? You need at least 5X multiplier. You smash the guy to the ground and then grab his angle and twist to break his leg!

There's actually a few different ones, and I believe you get one for every 5x on your multiplier for... 5x, 10x, 15x, etc etc

Woah, I just noticed this. That guy signed up months ago, and made normal posts, right? Now he turns out to be a spammer? Smart I guess, but worth the effort?

Bane joins the fight!

FRICK!

The game got delayed from June until... well the end of the summer which is oddly vague.

Hi everyone. There's been a lot of speculation about the Batman: Arkham Asylum release date. Eidos has just announced this statement (wanted you folk to get the official word first)....

"Eidos Interactive and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment can today confirm that Batman: Arkham Asylum will be released at the end of summer 2009. This additional time will allow us to ensure Batman: Arkham Asylum is of the highest quality for gamers."

They had a PS3 kiosk set up at my local Best Buy with a demo of this game.

From what I can tell, in the demo you just fight progressive waves of tougher baddies.

But it was really fun - I'm probably going to pick this up. The combat felt so perfect. You could use triangle to counter, and the game gave you alerts on when a guy was about to hit you. So you could be punching the crap out of someone, then catch a guy's foot who is trying to kick you under your arm and them slam your elbow into him.

You can also utilize your cape to stun enemies, and if you run at someone and press triangle you could jump over them and hit them from behind.

Not to mention it looks awesome, and I think you may actually take damage to your suit as you fight. After this one brawl I had a tear across the chest of my bat suit.

Demo is out, im downloading it right now.

Bond · 08-07-2009, 04:02 PM

I'll be downloading this as well...

This game is awesome, makes you feel like the dark knight himself. I had little expectations to get this game, but now i think i will!

The controls are so easy to learn, but feel rewarding to execute. Mark Hamil is awesome as usual.

Demo was good. Reminded me of a less complex Metal Gear Solid game with Batman.

The conveniently placed gargoyles were suspicious, though.

Yeah those were plentiful, and coming from my schooling... not practical... its not a neutral image... and in an insane asylum.. yup

Anyhow, what takedowns have people done?

I finally got the takedown through the glass ceiling in the final room. Also a huge fan of the upside down one, always thought he dropped them but he actually hangs them by their feet.
