Like some of you, this weekend I’ll be exploring the surreal, paranoid halls of Arkham Asylum.
What I like most about the new Batman game so far is how well it conveys the sense that you are a superhero. The hand-to-hand combat is brilliantly choreographed with its sudden slo-mo close-ups when you complete a combo and supported by an uncomplicated but satisfying rhythm-based approach to swinging your fists.
I’m not yet convinced it’s quite worth the stellar scores it has been receiving, but it is without doubt one of the best superhero experiences ever to grace a gaming platform.
I’m also going to finally check out The Conduit and, of course, continue my never-ending Fallout 3 adventures.
How about you?
