  • Is Zsaaz in Aylum cause I beat him in Arkham City. That dude is hilarious. I love when he get's frustrated. Thumbs up if you want a 3rd game

  • @TheSteelBallz lol yah but only very briefly, he is actually used as part of the introductory sequence, showing you how to use your grapple hook effectivley

  • nah...it's a 8/10

  • "Kill"? Batman doesn't kill

  • Brucy-baby

  • Are these Batman games intended to be a trilogy? Because I get the feeling that there will be a third part in this Batman series. I'd like to have a 3rd part. And I would really like to have Asylum and City :D

  • Thanks for your help guys I bought and finished this game and loved every minute of it can't wait for christmas to bring Arkham City now.

  • Just a poll guys: Which was your favorite level? Mine was a tie between the Killer Croc level (even though it did get repititive) and the levels were there were 6 armed guards and you had to take them out. Oh and I Loved the Scarecrow levels, some actually really scared me but it did get a bit repititive

  • @TheBallingSuperstar Personally the Scarecrow segments were my favourite parts too because i just wanted to see what insane illusion Scarecrow would come out with next, also they were unexpected and I loved hearing the Scarecrows voice, it was just that awesome.

  • I'm getting Arkham Asylum before I get Arkham City for christmas so I need to know, how long will the main story take to complete?

  • Comment removed

  • @Nightshadow141 took me a while i'd say 10 hours haha idk if i suck or not

  • @Nightshadow141 if you focus entirely in the main story it will take you around 6 to 8 hours to beat it

  • this game was one of the best games so far im getting arkham city for christmas cant wait!

  • lol my gamertag used to be game weasel

  • my fav game the reson for me that it is a 9/10 is not much replayablity

  • Isn't the story mode closer to 9 hours and not 7? Satisfying as hell, either way. Just can't believe that apparently Batman Arkham City's story mode is supposed to be 25 hours long and that's JUST the main campaign!!! Not to mention the extra 15 hours of Riddler and other side activities, which you can do anytime DURING the story!!!! Fuck yeah, plus all the gliding around and free roam?! It's gonna be a LONNNG game. SO STOKED!!!

  • this is still one of my favourite games. Roll on arkham city.

  • Someone please answer has the dlc goon out already????? Date:8/23/11

  • @Danielthebeastibarra On PS3 all dlc is available in the Playstation store. Crime Alley and Dem Bones cost about 4 bucks apiece the other 3 are free.

  • He said kill, batman does not kill just like one cannot simply walk into mordor

  • i loved the scarecrow parts especially that little mind fuck the devs put in with that glitchy illusion

  • can anyone tell me wat game he gave a 10 out of 10

  • @GameStriker07 super mario galaxy 2

  • @GameStriker07 supermario galaxy 2 haha.

  • @lostboy534 and he liked re5 lol that game was shit compared to this

  • @CallmeAffiliated toatally.

  • Not enough to do after it's finished, you say? Well, with all those riddles to solve, secret areas to find (similar to Metroid), Riddler trophies to collect, and all those challenges (where you compete in online leaderboards)...sounds like plenty, to me.

  • @catholicgamer99 on paper. All that is fun during the game, it's just boring and pointless after it's beaten.

    It's no GTA. It's a great enough linear game to be enjoyed on a second play through but don't buy into that whole "if it has side missions there is something to do" thing when side missions are nothing more than "go here, scan that"

  • @videosfromderelix Yeah, scanning is boring, but I was thinking more about the Riddler trophies. It's like collecting 'energy cells' in Metroid.

  • @catholicgamer99 And that is fun during the game but going back after beating the game and collecting all of them is just so pointless and boring. What do I have to gain if the main boss is beaten and no real challenge is left?

  • Comment removed

  • This is one of my favorite games. The scarecrow is pretty scary especially when you walk into the morgue and there are the wriggling bodybags. Gives me the chills every time.

  • Anyone else realize how much of a spoiler this review is right from the start? He pretty much revealed Joker's plan right in the beginning.

  • Arkham city is coming out soon :) they have gameplay video's out now. It looks great

  • are the controls for this game weird on pc?

  • this has to be my favourite game ever on the ps3 so far i can't wait for batman arkhum city to come out i've pre-ordered it months ago and i can't waiit any longer

    10/10 for me

  • I'd love to know how he beat the game in 7 hours. My first playthrough took almost 20 hours, granted I collected everything and did all the riddles but still. Even if you don't do that, it's still at at least 12-14 hours.

  • When i go on game fly and look at reviews for this game a few people didn't like it cause it was "glitchy" and i have BEATEN the game THREE times now with no bugs! It was not the game it was there SYSTEM thumbs up if you agree with me.

  • i got this game and its great, but i cant play it cuz i have a mac and i cant hold the rmb and press lmb at the same time, im rly disappointed cuz the game is fantastic, if anybody knows how to customize the controls please tell me!

  • this game was amazing but it was longer maybe this game would be game of the year i beat this game in like two days

  • when you go after killer croc and the goons put bombs on the gargoylos, can you use the batclaw to pull them off?

  • Absolute classic.

  • Freaking awesome game :D

  • I want this I cant belive i havent bought it yet.

  • ivy is soooo hot

  • noway ! its not short.

    its around 12-15 hours or even more.

  • This game is good but I was a little disappointed with there not being many boss fights. You get all these little info things about all the villains and I thought you would be fighting them all through out the game but you only actually fight like 2 or 3...

  • @cornchippers 2 or 3? it like 5 or 6

  • @Nathanthefool1 Ok name all of the bosse.

  • @cornchippers joker , ivy , killer croc , scarecrow , riddler , bane , and harley quinn i think that all oh yea is victor zsasz count as boss?

  • @Nathanthefool1 I'd actually only count Joker, Ivy, Scarecrow, and Bane. You didn't really even fight killer croc you just had to escape his lair while throwing batarangs at him. You didn't get to fight Harley either. It was just a wave of the standard enemies and the Riddler definately doesn't count because you don't even see him in person. It was definitely a good game but I was disappointed that they hyped up all these boss battle but they never actually happend.

  • do yoou think this game is short? answer anyone

  • best combat system EVER

  • shit poison ivy looks hot as hell FINALLY

  • this game is a masterpiece! the scarecrow scenes are just wow!

  • sells for $15 brand new on amazon today only! go get it

  • waa??? a 9 , whats wrong with this game that doesnt deserve a 10

  • @slimboy55 This game deserves about a 7 out of 10. Why? 90% of the game you're running around in detective mode and never get to see this gorgeous game they've designed. Later on in the game you also rarely get to see the combat system as 80% of the enemies you face are armed with a gun and you are forced to do silent takedowns or you die instantly. The boss fights are a joke. Every boss fight is exactly the same. They should have used more variations of bosses.

  • @b00mQQ yes but they did that part about not killing as much thugs to the end becoz it gave alot more a challenge to the game instead of fightin thugs all the time which are easy to kill.... i agree with u on the detective mode part but in arkham city i heard they changed it so u cant use it as much .... i rarely use it myself .. i only used it wen i needed to

  • Batman don't Kill and the movies don't count. lol

  • I'm planning on investing in a PS3 and your review convinced me that this game is definitely a must have

  • @JaysPlace20 have you gotten these yet. i have a ps3 and this game. the game's for my 360, but nonetheless.

  • @KeyOfReason001 Nah, I'm waiting till Christmas. I know how to be patient

  • @JaysPlace20 g'point, i'm waiting til Christmas for Demon's Souls. And maybe Disgaea 3

  • this game has awesome graphics

  • The accent is really funny

  • the Scarecrow parts were hands down the worst part of the game. they were boring and repetitive. other that thats its one of my favorite games of all time

  • @TheDantheman1997 The Scarecrow parts were my favourite part of the game! The constant fights with thugs were lame, especially when it's supposed to be a 'boss' battle. The scarecrow bits were very short but beautiful, like the parents bit was wicked. Did you really not like the bit where you were walking down the hall and it was raining? More bits were added with each one which I found them the most interesting cause of the visuals, like Batman in a electric chair or eating a rat.

  • @00Kakkoi00 i correct myself. i didnt like the "duck behind the box and hope he doesnt see you" Scarecrow parts

  • @TheDantheman1997 Yeah, I kind if get what you mean about that. i think i got irritated with that aswell. i think it's not as bad as fighting constant thugs over and over and over and over and over again however fighting the skellitons annoyed the fuck out of me (it was just like fighting thugs again), so yeah,I agree with you.

  • @00Kakkoi00 those "avoid his gaze" moment frustrated me

  • @TheDantheman1997 it scared me

  • @slimboy55 seriously? i just thought the parts where you avoid his gaze sucked

  • @TheDantheman1997 no the parts that scared me is when he jumped out from no where and stabs u with a needle

  • this game is alot longer then 7 hours

  • @jackedblob Yeah, I've played the game for about 12 hours now, and I'm still not finished. Maybe it's because I die a lot from doing reckless things, or because I occasionally like to look around for Riddler trophies.

  • @jackedblob yeah 8 hours

  • Everyone loves this game but when i played the demo i thought its just alright game.

  • Batman arkham asylum is the best comic book game of all time!!

  • its always 9/10

  • this isnt a review, its an analysis.

  • @xXAmberXxable i'll let you play w/ mine if you let me play w/ yours. . . ?

  • WOW 7 HOURS!?!? I'm not a die-hard Batman fan but with all the good reviews I was thining of buying the GOTY of this game but I'm OCD & usually end up beating the average game on hard in less than a week. Should I just rent this game or does it have a replay-ability factor that makes it worth buying? (like an addictive multiplayer??) **Maybe I should save my money & wait for Crysis 2??

  • @BeneathTheSurface79 I have the same problem.. I wont buy a game unless im going to get at least 15 hours of play

  • lol... "brucey baby"

  • I think this guy kinda spoiled the game a little :P

  • i like how ppl bash on him for his reviews. heres the problem most ppl have: Gamesweasel is HONEST about games. there is no such thing as a perfect game. learn that

  • @9movierox Thank god there is actually smart out there. If there was a perfect game, it would be played by everyone and the hardest one, have no bugs AT ALL.

  • the scarecrow levels were definately the most exciting parts of the game. but of course the whole game is awesome

  • the killercroc n scarecrow levels were bad ass

  • @Brady2k10 killercroc sucked hehe

  • @vermillionh eh? tht was one of the best fights, i liked the scarecrow ones alot too though, id like to see more of mrzsacs or w.e his name is too

  • can nothing impress u!!!!!!!!!

  • This guy is almost IMPOSSIBLE to impress!!!

    getting a 9/10 from him is getting a 1000/10 from the hardest critic on earth!!!

  • Why exactly do you watch these reviews if you hate them?

  • Ever play the Ga,e of the Year Edition? It's playable in 3D

  • woah this guy is IMPOSSIBLE to impress :P

  • @NutcakesMonster at least he is not sounding biased like many ign reviewers! XD

  • Hate the narrator, he just sounds like he's taking the piss out of every game he reviews

  • Finally, a GREAT Batman game!

    Stunning graphics, sound and atmosphere!

    Only snag is that it was too easy and too short - oh well!

    The Scarecrow sections are absolutely brilliant!

  • ive always kind of liked the batman stories but the games usually sucked and were way to childish!!! But this game was awesome and finally somebody can die!!!

    100/10

  • He was WAAAYYYY too generous here!

  • amazing game. the sequel will be bigger ad better hopefully.

  • @GamingShadow01 the sequel will be one of the greatest games of all time. like ratchet and clank, halo reach, gears of war 3, and infamous 2 (if they ever get around to that one)

  • gta episodes of liberty city or this i can only get one

  • This is a great game and it's actually kinda creepy. I got it yesterday and so far am really enjoying it :)

  • The joker has never been better. The joker of this game is the real joker.

  • This game is awesome, the combat system doesn't get that much of a say in this review but it's better than he makes out. The counter attack stuff is cool as hell, especially when you've just hit someone and you reverse an attack coming from behind you etc... Epic game.

  • @123Nathaniel321 He does say in other videos that Batman: AA has the best hand-to-hand combat of any game that he's ever played.

  • can u plz hlp me between uncharted 2 and arkham asylum which 1 shud i get i can only gt 1 of them. nyc vid

  • I would say Arkham Asylum (:

  • @IAMISBEST hum...wow dude...thats a really hard choise...maybe Arkham, I dunno :S

  • this game is great!!

    i liked how they got all the people from the 90's annimated series to the the voice acting in the game. that was a cool touch

  • Im so pissed that you need ps3 to play as the joker!!! :(

  • is this game creepy would u guys recomende it for a 11 year old

  • im 11 and i have the game so dont worry its not that creepy

  • @minivor no ur right! :)

  • so its creppy

  • Best game I have ever played in a long time.

  • I don't think it's bad, but it lacked tempo.

  • @YBucket Yeah it is

  • It is what?

  • @YBucket tempo

  • Something can "have" tempo, not "is".

    And no, I disagree with you, it does not always have tempo. A lot times of times you're basically doing nothing but walking, climbing or crawling, which slows down the actual story.

  • Amen!

  • 7hours? how can you beat the game in 7 hours, i d say at least 15 if you are someone who enjoys playing it.

  • I played on normal and finished it in 10-11 hours.. But I explored and stuff :P

  • the scarecrow uses FEAR gas not poison gas. theres a difference

  • Another good adition to PS3 console

    FTW :D

  • well you can play as the joker in the PS3 version.  i cant wait to get my PS3 next week to play this.

  • i got a 1000\1000 on this its well easy

  • Are the challenge rooms any good? please reply.

  • Yep on psn are 3 extra challenge rooms and joker challenge room

  • Comment removed

  • getting a ps3 slim with infamous and batman and borderlands and fallout 3 game of the year edition!!!! there nuthing more sexy then a girl thats a gamer xD

  • fallout 3 goty is shockingly bad, glitched to fuck ive given up on it

  • its not a bad game its the glitches that bloody ruin it

  • What was you playing it on? 360 or PS3

  • Ps3

  • @xXAmberXxable hell yeah!

  • @xXAmberXxable Yeah,batman is awesome...you should also get resistance 2...

    its briliant....have you got your ps3 yet???

  • @xXAmberXxable a girl that's NOT a gamer is sexier than a girl who IS. just my opinion...i don't like geeky gamer girls. they're always fat and ugly

  • @xXAmberXxable hhaah :P

    and what do u think about the games?

  • @xXAmberXxable damn straight

  • @xXAmberXxable yeah to a geek, ooh ur gonna get wat u want 1000 geeks trynna go on a date with u

  • @xXAmberXxable Not when she plays runescape. :(

  • @xXAmberXxable nerds are gullible

  • i absolutely love this game and i was if you might know if the pc version has any mods?

  • This game is short but fun and comes with lots of great setpieces, not unlike ur mum!

  • i once rented this game a while back, holy shit, one of the best fcking games ever!!

  • I got this for PC and it's awesome except for the controls. You can't customize and the only gamepad you can use is the 360. That ticks me off when I think of the money I put out for a nice pad....Screw MS with their proprietary shit. XPadder works "ok" but still not fluid as it would be with native controller support like "Red Faction". The game itself is pretty good and intense. Has a lot of the same dynamics as the "Wolverine" game from earlier in the year.

  • 1) You can download this game for pc from links on my chanel

    2) You can use any gamepad, enough to place 2 files into game folder to make any gamepad work with this or any other games (xinput1_3.dll and xbox360cemu.ini)

  • looks like a zombie/Fear game done batman style...how fun!

  • The game is short but fun!

  • how was he??? he was amazing so stfu

  • The voice actor for the Joker in this game is the same guy who played Luke Skywalker.

  • give it up halo is over rated it sucks in my opinion

  • halo 3 campaign sucks

    halo 3 multiplayer is awesome.

    it might be overrated but that doesnt make it a bad game it just makes it easier to find multiplayer matches ^_^

  • i like the campaign: great co-op,

    point matches, and different skulls

  • is he serious about the game not being long. i played about 3h and only reached 16 percent the game. which means the game is very long
