Sep 11, 2023Batman: Arkham Asylum gives many different ways to approach its combat and stealth, allowing you to become your ideal version of Batman.
-
Sep 10, 2023Great looking, but I got bored with it. Totally linear, repetetive - buttom mashing dumb but cool looking combat. Overrated. Very consoley!
-
Sep 9, 2023This game is damn-near perfect. The combat is flawless, the length is perfect, the story is great, the collectibles are awesome, and the map/setting is just amazing, acting like a 3d metrovania. There's something about the smaller setting of Arkham Island that really makes this game shine and the bigger games like City and Knight just can't compete with.

Sep 7, 2023Wonderfull hero game and exellent graphic Rocksteady was maked wonderfull game
-
Aug 28, 2023First game in the Arkham series. It has always been my least favorite and least remembered game. There are a lot of things I found boring because of the maps being too small and the limitations in the gameplay, but it's definitely not a bad game and it's still playable.
-
Aug 28, 2023Such a classic and amazing game with it's amazing combat it is an astonishing game.
-
Aug 21, 2023esse jogo é um lixo completo, não tem gameplay boa, a história é um lixo, o level design é deplorável, a ambientação e a trilha sonora são boas.
-
Aug 19, 2023Very good game. I enjoyed playing this game a lot. I strongly recommend this.
-
Aug 13, 2023If this game was not designed on dc characters, it would be a very good game, but the fact that batman and joker are in the game makes the game closer to perfection. The fighting mechanics are very successful and the linear storytelling makes the game unbeatable in a different way. It's one of the few games I play over and over again.

Jul 13, 2023Çıktığı yıla göre çok başarılı bir yapım. Dövüş mekaniği de 2023 yılında bile hala düzgün çalışır durumda.

Jun 29, 2023Honestly, best superhero game known to man. Prove me wrong. When a company spends 2 years working on perfecting a cape, yk its real ****
-
Jun 25, 2023The Batman game that started the excellent Arkham Trilogy by Rocksteady Studios!
Pros:
+ Story is good!
+ Gameplay is good!
+ Great voice acting by Kevin Conroy and Mark Hammill returning as their iconic roles as Batman
and Joker!
+ Great world building and lots of easter eggs and references!
Cons:
- Gadgets could have been used more in exploration -
May 20, 2023I'm crazy. I've played many times. I played as a kid too. I wish this line was continued.
-
May 6, 2023only few games hit me hard in the feels and this is one of them, definitely a must play

Apr 18, 2023Had little to no expectations, when i was beginning to play i thought to myself this game ain't for me i won't enjoy this. Oh boy i was wrong really enjoyed to the bone, found myself collecting riddler trophies and its the reason why this game won't get a higher rating for me, riddler stuff sucks collected all for a **** phone call.

Apr 7, 2023Just text (crutch) to save the game to the list. Such things. Maybe I'll do a review later.

Mar 9, 2023Самая слабая часть, но исключительно детскими диалогами, во всем остальном - это шедевр.
-
Mar 5, 2023A very concise and atmospheric game in which the plot and characters are well spelled out, the gameplay is fascinating, and the graphics and visual are even good for that time. One of my best and favorite games

Jan 26, 2023One of the best video games based on superheroes. An atmosphere and story well achieved that are accompanied by an excellent gameplay.
-
Jan 17, 2023A good superhero game, with good gameplay and a great story, with excellent villains and some scary ones. The ending was good, but it could have been better.

Gameplay 9/10

Nov 17, 2022My favorite superhero game. Batman A A has become a model for third-person superhero games, and this is evident in the latest Spidermans from Insomniac Games. Arkham Asylum has an amazing atmosphere, music, clever storyline and flowly combat system. Riddler puzzles and the environment, which requires frequent use of gadgets, are also noteworthy. My favorite game in the Arkham trilogy.

Nov 5, 2022This was a surprisingly good Batman game which was made with much love and passion.

Oct 4, 2022I'm not a batman comics fan and i look at this game with cold mind and what i see? Boring gameplay, limited stealth, NO WAY TO FIGHT FACE ON FACE, and medium story on 710.

Sep 16, 2022I have no words to describe what I've just played and finished, so I'll just say this: This game is a masterpiece, even in 2022.
-
Sep 13, 2022The game is an 8/10. I enjoy the combat. It would be better if it was more difficult. hard mode is unplayable because there is no indicator for counter.
-
Sep 6, 2022Absolute masterpiece, excellent atmosphere, revolutionary combat, great side challenges and maps and a great introduction to the batman universe. A must buy for everyone especially batman lovers.

Aug 16, 2022Kapiram da je za to vreme bila top ali je sve bila gora i gora, onda bug sa videom kada ne mogu da ga ogledam normalno jako je smarao i bug zadnji boss nisam mogao da ga predjem. Repetativan kombat upgrades su onako, likovi su top ali ono boss fight su meh bili.

Jul 17, 2022A very good game, I love canon Batman, showed in this game. Best in the series! I'm played City and Origins, but this is best! Only in the end of the game: battle with Titan Joker is little cringe, but what ever. Play one more time next year!

Jul 7, 2022One of those games that left its mark in videogame history with a brilliant combat system. Other than combat, story and dark theme are also amazing. I would gave it a even higher score but boss fights pushed it down.

Apr 1, 2022gameplay is ok, but not great, a few fights with boses are really bad and the last one, with GIGA JOKER is terrible, plot is bad and lore of dc comics not used well enough. but actually it was pretty good to play

Mar 29, 2022An Absolutely Incredible Ride. Every once and a while you come across a really incredible movie, and this is what you get, a really.
-
Mar 19, 2022The interface is wonderful. You have so much information immediately available to you. Google Maps always has a minimap in the lower left corner, which gives you a good overview of the area. Getting information about people gives you a clear, clear window. Hacking offers a menu with easily recognizable icons, so you always know what your button presses will do.
-
Mar 13, 2022This is a really good game but I played it when I already played Batman Arkham Knight and I can't say that Arkham Asylum better than Arkham Knight.
-
Mar 9, 2022Batman: Arkham Asylum is an exciting adventure capable of capturing everything that could do the Dark Knight justice, except boss fights.

Dec 23, 2021Great game and a perfect example how superhero media doesn't have to be generic and mindless garbage.
Many unique ideas that influenced future games with a fun story and strong atmoshpere. -

Nov 23, 2021My favourite game of all time. The atmosphere is amazing, acting is professional and the gameplay keeps you playing. I also loved the Riddler trophies, kept me playing for days. I would recommend the whole series (except Warner's game, the Arkham Origins). Amazing graphics with details.
-
Nov 15, 2021Invented a genre basically with its combat system, great atmosphere. After Nolan's films Batman deserved a great gaming franchise and this started it.

Oct 5, 2021Still the best Arkham game. It has the best story and the best atmosphere. The pseudo open-world of the sequels doesn't really add anything except pad out the game time. It makes you think you've got more content, when in reality, you're just spending more time traveling in between missions.

Mar 28, 2021With a good story that unfortunately turns up the ambition up unevenly to its substance by the finale, and decent gameplay that is made much better by the impressive animations, Arkham Asylum is a great start for one of gaming's best franchises.

The result is so good that we're declaring it an easy 'Best of' contender for 2009.
-
I can say with confidence and cannot stress enough, Batman: Arkham Asylum is, without a doubt, the best Batman game ever created. It does more than give you the Batman game you want, it gives you a video game that you could play repeatedly, even if it didn't have the caped and cowled Dark Knight in it.

Play MagazineThere isn’t a single element of Arkham Asylum that isn’t polished to the utmost degree.
