My copy of Batman: Arkham Asylum just shipped. I highly recommend checking this game out (demos are available).
PS3 (go log in on PSN)
I had a ton of fun playing through the demo a couple of times. Stealth felt rewarding, combat brutal, and had a good overall presentation.
And if you think the final screen from the NES Batman game has been photoshopped, you’d be right. But it’s not that far off.
Seriously. Go try this out. Currently out for PC, but will be available on XBLA later (and I think PSN?).
Thanks, Evil Avatar and ActionTrip
Alright, go get the demo for Mirror’s Edge and give it a shot.
I’m not saying you need to buy this game right away. With all of the other games coming out, and the fact this is published by EA, means it will probably be on sale within a couple months (by the time you’d have time to play it anyway).
What I am saying is, it is good enough that you may be considering getting it now anyway. That it’s good enough to go to the top of the queue, even if logic dictates it shouldn’t.
