So I’ve been playing batman Arkham Asylum for two days now and i can say with out a doubt this is the best batman game so far. The game is divided into fighting, stealth a few boss battles and light elements of puzzling . First off the fighting you use 3 of the face buttons square for your melee attacks triangle for reversals x to dodge and jump over enemies. Next up is the stealth sections basically there’ll be a room full of guys with guns there are a few ways to eliminate them sneak behind them to silently take them out hang them from the gargoyles you’re perched on glide kick then knock them out. My personal favourite is to hang bad guys from the gargoyles. As you play through the game you see batman looking like he’s been through. Now onto the story the game starts off with batman bringing the joker back to to Arkham Asylum it soon becomes clear that the joker is up to something to sum the story up very immersive and dark story just like the comic. 

Last aspect of the game is the puzzle element which involves you look round a room for fingerprints or scent and then following a trail that leads you to your next objective. there are boss battles but there aren’t many there’s only two big boss battles and they are against bane and poison ivy but the rest of the game makes up for the lack of bosses. For ps3 owners you get to download the joker to play as in challenge mode

thanks for reading my first game review any feedback would be nice
