      Comments about Batman: Arkham Asylum (PC):

      Take the success of "The Dark Knight", turn it into a PC game and you have Batman: Arkham Asylum. It takes RPG to a completely new level with incredibly detailed and lifelike graphics, making you feel like you really are the Batman. It's a gaming opportunity not to be missed.

      Service and delivery comments:

      Quick postage, packaged well. Would definitely recommend.

      Comments about Batman: Arkham Asylum (PC):

      This game puts all the good stuff about Batman together. You get to drop in them middle of a group of bad guys and take them all at once or you can pick off them off on by one.

      One of other things that impressed me was that in most fights you can scope out the the surrounding first and and set up explosives etc. You then drop in and raise some hell.

      Service and delivery comments:

      Delivery took longer than the stated "7 - 10 days" but this was during the Xmas and New Years period so it might have been due to postal services getting swamped

      Comments about Batman: Arkham Asylum (PC):

      Arkham Asylum is not only the best superhero game ever made, it's also one of the best games of 2009.

      Combining freeform exploration and puzzles, a fun, easy to learn combat system, RPG stlyed unlockable upgrades, a dark and interesting location, an interesting plot penned by long-time Batman writer Paul Dini, and excellent production values, Rocksteady has finally succeeded in creating a game worthy of the Dark Knight.

      The only negatives about the entire game are some rather repetitive and underwhelming boss fights, the last one in particular seeming rather ridiculous, even in a world as twisted and insane as Arkham Asylum.
