Everyone is talkin’ about the upcoming Batman: Arkham Asylum (PC, PS3, Xbox 360) Batman game. So we went straight to the source at Comic-Con 09 and chatted with writer Paul Dini about what makes this Bat-game so darn special.
So take his (and our) word for its awesomeness…or find out for yourself when the game is released by Eidos on August 25.

There is a comic book called Arkham Asylum and has been out way before this game has come out on October 1, 1997. The game is somewhat different from the comic book, however the video game is not original.

I agree with Lion eyes. The camera in the demo was a bit treasonous at some points, but the fact that you can have full control of the camera helps a lot. I do wish that the camera wasn't so zoomed in at some points. And the 'to the left of the screen' set up isn't so bad, since I played RE 4. Got used to it. It's a bit late in the game to make these kind of changes so close to it's Aug 25th release date, though. We might just have to deal with it and hope the rest of the game will more than makes up for it. I think it will.
4/5 is a good guess when they review on X PLay. Unless it's SO bad-ass they give it the coveted 5/5.
By the way, LOVED the Demo on PS3. That thing felt like an amazing Batman movie with a Tenchu/Metal Gear-esque feel to it. Very theatric. This game is going to do really well.

I have loved all things Batman since i was 4 and the first tim burton Batman movie came out with Michael Keaton.
I will absolutely purchase this the second it hits shelves. STILL, even if every aspect is perfect its still a 4/5 for makin me feel like a Tard every time i run into doorway! Please fix the camera or give the option to change it so Battie isn't always too far to the left!

I am so glad that the creators of the game could build this story from the ground up.
