RE: Memorable Videogames: BATMAN ARKHAM ASYLUM
Batman Arkham Asylum and Batman Arkham City are some of the best games ever made for console. In Arkham City on my long ago broken ps3, I managed to pull 1000 combo in Joker's Carnival dlc map. I find the other titles to be waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyy over hyped, especially Arkham Origins that never run smoothly and was complitely unplayable on launch, ON PS3! I have never seen a game that runned so badly, even on a computer, if instant crashes are not counted.
I totally agree with you, there's also Batman: Arkham Knight. Although it was a little loose and had its problems on PC output, I think it was a good close for the saga.
I found AK to go little too silly with it's story and changes to game mechanics and the new enemies just didn't feel very fit to the core-gameplay mechanic of chaining combos. For example enemies that just charge towards you can be real annoyance if you don't spot them especially when you are half-way trough air and cant do non. Also ability to just keep smacking those grounded units takes so much away from proper comboing, turning alot of encounters into mindless button smashing.
