Batman: Arkham Asylum
- Is definitely GOTY material.
- Feels like Super Metroid with Batman playing Samus (this is a good thing.)
- Is tremendously solid in gameplay, controls, execution, atmosphere, character, and overall fun.
- Has the best melee combat system I’ve played in a LONG time.
- Sucked up almost 5 hours of my life this afternoon.
- Was an awesome birthday present from my little brother. (Thanks dude!)
- Will have to fight it out with Uncharted 2 for the “My Favorite Game of the Year” award.
- I forgot what 8 was for.
- I have yet to find any real negatives.
- Honestly.

16. There is a fully rendered recreation of the warship Bismarck hidden in the game.
17. Entering a special cheat code allows you to watch Batman eat spaghetti. While wearing the cowl! He totally stops off at this little Italian place that he loves and gets take out. The restaurant is out of garlic knots so… that kind of sucks.
18. There’s a random coma generator. Every bad guy you punch has a small chance to end up in a coma for the rest of his life.
19. If you let it sit for five hours unpaused. Robin, the boy wonder, calls and asks for his allowance. You can press ‘y’ to say no and preserve your billions and teach fiscal responsibility.
20. You get to hurt people.
21. The song during the finale was written by Molly Ringwold’s brother.
