This is a great but SHORT game. Overall It has you really involved but it's not long enough to make you want to play a second time. I usually take around 2 weeks to a month to beat a game, it two days to beat Batman Arkham Asylum. It really disapointed me when it came to length, but if that factor is thrown out, then this is a great game, and I would highly reconmend it.

(All of which are optional.) A diffi...[More] |

The graphics make the 360 and PS3 version look sickly. The textures, the resolution, the detail - even the cutscenes are in-engine, unlike the movie files in the console v...[More] |
