Batman: Arkham Asylum
At the moment I'm playing my way through this title and its great. Finally a game that lives up to the idea of what a Batman game should be.
There's a mix of Fighting, Stealth, Detective work, Gadgets, Villains and a great visual style bringing it all together. Most importantly It feels like you're playing as Batman.
The gameplay is much more varied than I imagined it would be and the combat/stealth system difficulty raises at a good pace to ensure there's always a challenge, you feel powerful yet vulnerable. This along with the epic Boss battles, secrets to find, areas to unlock as you get hold of new gadgets as well as new ways to tackle foes. It makes for a really fun and engaging experience.
There is always an element of not quite knowing what will happen next, with the Joker teasing you as to what it could be. If you were wondering about getting the game, id say its certainly worth it but try out the demo first though it is only a tiny taste of what gameplay is available.
Check out the trailer, this is the version where you play as the Joker exclusively on the PS3.
