Batman Arkham 0/10

I only tried this because a friend who has been on my ass for ignoring the batman franchise pushed it on me (I still havent seen Dark Knight). I couldn't bring myself to play any longer after I started to look for commissioner gordon. THIS GAME SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow...

Arkham Asylum is by far one of the best comic book to game adaptations ever done.


You got to be joking here? :confused:

I'm not. I really, really didn't like it. It goes on the list of games I tried, but just couldn't get into...

I really gave this one an honest shot. I just didn't find the button mashing fun (or at least thats all it seemed to be to me.)

You do realize that this is a bit like saying "it smells better than raw sewage", it really isen't saying much..

I haven't played the game so i wont offer an opinion, i just found it humerous that your praise was actually more like damnation by faint praise :lol:

Same here. One of the only times I've ever bought a game without trying a demo, and I really felt I wasted my money.

It's anything but button smashing once you have some practice, although you have to unlock some abilities first... :con:
Loved the game, I still keep playing the Challenge Mode now and then. :tup:

Tried it and put it away, but only because I got distracted. I like what I played so far. You haters are nuts.

Anyways,

Demon's Souls (Again): 10/10 and GOTY 2009.

This game does so many things right that it's unbelievable. The craziest part is how taken individually the game features are bad designs, but when interwoven with all the other parts of the game and one hell of an online integration you have one of the greatest games ever made. So much variety, excellent gameplay, wonderfully designed areas, and an expertly crafted atmosphere all contribute to Demon's Souls success.

It's out in Europe now, so if you have a PS3 GO GET EET.

UT3 - 9/10
Got finally a good rig and now it runs 60 FPS almost all the time. Kicks a large amount of ass. Has my favourite DM mode ever. Overall I love it, if not even more than UT1 (except the SPOldskool stuff)

Dead Space - 9/10
Now this is a game. It's the closest thing to a System Shock sequel, and easily one of my favourites horror sci-fi games of all time. Amazing weapons (Contact Beam and Ripper are win) and enemies. From what I've seen DS2 seems to be just as good (maaaybe even better - more action packed).

I don't tend to enjoy single player games period. The lone exception tends to be sandbox style games like FarCry2, GTA, and Just Cause.

Just a question, but wouldn't superhero games like Spiderman and Batman be ripe to be made in this way? If someone managed to do either in this manner, I'd almost consider them instant buys...

Spider-Man games have always been open world 'sandbox' style.With Spiderman 2 on the PS2 being one of the best in the series. Also Ultimate Spider-Man was pretty decent as well.


And Arkham Asylum is kind of sandboxy, though instead of a massive city you can roam around and explore every corner and section of the asylum at your own leisure in between missions.

Toy Story 3 7.5/10

I got curious about this game after seeing some footage of it being shown at the Pixar open day (GiantBomb reporting), and it's actually pretty wonderful. Singleplayer levels so far are well built, varied and fun. The sandbox mode is a lot of fun too. The game's essentially platforming with light combat in a very stylish cartoon setting.

Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts
Not like the old ones at all. Instead of platforming around with a wide assortment of special moves you build wacky vehicles to solve puzzles and to get around.
Maybe not for hardcore fans of the old ones who can't accept change, but I payed full-price for the old ones, got 100% in them and played Banjo Tooie especially for ages and I think Nuts and Bolts is a hoot.:)

It's highly innovative and extremely well made. The vehicle business is more than a gimmick. It takes center stage and works really well. The physics behind the vehicles you build fit the wacky style and there are a ton of fun parts to build your contraptions with. The music is top-notch as usual and the graphics rock. What more could you ask for?

9/10

Doom 2-10/10

Last night I started playing Doom again (the original not Doom 3).

Having nothing better to do I loaded up the Doom 2 .wad in the Doom Legacy front end.

It's been how many years now since this game came out and I first played it?

I think I'm hooked again and will play some more Doom tonight.

F yeah! Well Doom 2 has the most map-packs/modifications anyway. And it's always a blast to play. Doom/2 they're just classic shooters. I mainly use the 1.42 legacy version, and sometimes zdoom (but there are so many versions anyway).
