First 10 minutes of Batman: Arkham Asylum

Watch the first 10 minutes of Batman: Arkham Asylum.

[Milky]

hmmm, I hope it doesn't dissapoint like Ghostbusters. Looks good but will wait for reviews before I decide to get it or not.

[LtSkittles]

I think the reviews are good so far, but it depends how you like the game.

[Cwalat]

Couldn't resist... and wow.. i'm totally blown away by the level of detail and great writing... not to mention the awesome graphics.

The ONLY thing i'm a bit worried over, is the quantity.. i have no clue how long/short it will be.

I hope it's well over 12 hours... if it is, then there's no doubt that i'll buy it first day.

[Sanzee]

"I've got your scent Batman, I'm going to hunt you down!" RAWR. I are teh best video game writer eva. I are super cool. I are best Batman game ever. Oh God, forgive the script-writers behind this game. The graphical detail is so impressive, but the writing is unforgivable. Their raping Batman. Like Micheal Bay raped Transformers 2. Don't let my comment ruin your day. Opinions matter, but the truth will be out shortly. Non-bribed Review Scores coming soon!

[JokesOnYou]

That was freaking great....I think fans like me will love it. I lol so hard when he said "the jokes on you" line. Jokers the man.

JOY

[Cenobia]

I don't have the bandwidth to watch this, so can someone confirm that this isn't free roam...forever crushing my hopes and dreams?

Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh

Open World Batman would have been epic.

[LtSkittles]

It's open world in a sense. You can go anywhere on the island after you beat the game.

[beavis4play]

everything about the game has me hooked. i hope the gameplay is just as good as the trailer i just watched.

i hope there's a demo.

[JL]

This is looking like it could be awesome. I'll definitely be picking this up this month. Can't wait to give it a try. I'm especially liking the puzzle stuff and detective aspects integrated in to spice up and vary gameplay.

lol Joker is awesome. I definitely can't wait to see more of him after watching this.

[JayX666]

i dont understand why people use reviews, it comes down to taste. Too human was awsome to me,its like a modern day diablo, but reviewers hated it, i will therefore purchase games if they appeal to me like this. First day buy!

[Saaking]

I watch gameplay videos and read some reviews to decide if I should buy a game. Of course in the end it's entirely my opinion and sometimes I'll buy games just on my gut feeling, but having reviews helps especially considering that $60 dollars is no money you can just throw away. I agree that people shouldn't base their own opinion on reviews but rather use them to decide whether or not the game is their type and if it's enjoyable.

[ian72]

I think I will be getting this also. Looks interesting and good to play. Will read some reviews first just to see what its like.

[kewlkat007]

I miss the old-school beatem ups...

They have come a long way since climbing that bell tower on the NES.

[redDevil87]

hope Mr.Freeze is in this. It would make an epic boss fight. People need a new image of the real Mr. Freeze. Not the one Arnie done lol

[BabyDuck666]

Just can't decide between this and Wolfenstein.

[Sanzee]

Looks SOO gay. I don't mean to pre-judge, but based on the first ten minutes, I don't think it will do very good. Now that doesn't mean it's true, it's just my opinion. Please, for the love of God fellow N4G brothers, don't trip out because I said one little thing about Batman: Arkham Asylum. I hope it succeeds, I do, but there's no way this game is scoring above an 8. The writing is so poor, and dialogue so cheesy. The graphical detail freaking rocks though, I'll give it that.

[Ashriel]

Well, a troll HAD to appear, it's like a law for N4G.

BTW it looks like they finally got Batman right, at least with the character design and the enviorments.

[Darkfiber]

Since when is 8 a bad score? I bet you're one of those kids who think anything under 9 sucks and refuse to buy it, causing companies who actually make good games to lose money, just because they're not Modern Warfare 2 or Madden or other multi-million dollar sellers. Moron. The writing and dialog are not cheesy if you've watched the animated series, which this game is based off of. It's essentially a "children's cartoon", albeit a more mature one. You're probably one of those losers sitting in his parents basement jacking off to The Dark Knight. This game is based off the ANIMATED SERIES, not the Christopher Nolan movies, and I honestly think it will do just fine. There's a huge following for the animated series, and the voice acting is superb.

[i like jam]

dont....want....to.watch....mu st..resist.......

[solidboss]

finally a batman game that gets it right. character designs,voice overs ( mark hamill btw is still the best) its like watching the cartoon show all over again. good times...

[tiamat5]

I love people like Jayx666. They are always so proud that they were amoung the 5,000 people that brought a crappy game. People like them alway think that they are smarter then everyone else because they think they brought a great game and that everyone else was to stupid to see that. But they never think that they could be just the few people that fell for the hype and brought the crappy game. And they even are proud to defy the reviewers and buy the game anyway. I my life of playing games I have never played a game with low scores from reviewers and found out that it was a great game anyway. This is just an excuse that people who were fooled into buying the game say to make themselves feel better. Anyway saying that Batman looks like it rocks. This such a hard desision. Buy Batman early or save my money for Uncharted 2 or Ratchet and Clank

[Ashriel]

ooohhh, so it's impossible for anyone to like a game panned by critics???

According to your logic, is a review number is going to determine how much I will like a game?? Halo 3 got perfect scores everywhere and I didn't like it... *gasp*

Don't be a tool and just enjoy the damn games...

[Hudahudahuda]

'And they even are proud to defy the reviewers and buy the game anyway."

Jesus christ...

You act as if reviewers are the word of god or something. People like what they like. If he enjoyed Too Human then so be it. I don't think reviews are a bad way to gauge if a game is good or bad but I also don't think it's the final word on me enjoying a game or not. It's entirely possible that someone can honestly enjoy a badly reviewed game. After all, even if these guys all group up and say a game is bad it's STILL just an opinion. And nothing can change that.

[bushfan]

at the last part of the video..when the joker punch the guard, the game Freeze 2 or 3 times

[-Mezzo-]

I'll be getting it on PS3 as well.

[-Mezzo-]

i so want it to be a good game as i have been waiting for a good batman game for so long.

[tiamat5]

For those above me you misunderstand me. I never said that the score always made the game. You are right. Halo and Gears got great scores and they were some of the worst games I have ever played. I am just saying if everyone gives it a bad score maybe there is something to what they are saying. When I read what the critics say I try to understand what they mean and why they have come to that conclusion. I don't throw a tantrum like a five year old and buy the game anyway,big gaping flaws and all. You are not proving anything to anyone and you are just encouraging the company to make crappy games knowing that you will buy them anyway. I never buy games with scores that reach in the 50s, 60s or 70s. I don't understand why everyone is always is eager to throw down 60 dollars for every half @$$ed game that comes out when there are so many better games just sitting there. What is the point? So I can play something that is half a game or obviously rushed out the door with a ton of glitches?

[zack61]

i'll be getting it on 360 i don't care about joker
