It feels cheap as hell, deathwise, and you’re constantly falling off ledges due to depth perception issues or your partner running to the edge of the screen, coop characters don’t do what they’re meant to unless you coax them just right, there are some infuriating boss battles (Mr Freeze can go fuck himself) and the

Normal blogging will be resumed shortly, but to mark the new year, here are the best ten games of 2009… that I played. (So no Modern Warfare 2 or Uncharted 2, for example.) It was hard to whittle it down to a top ten, but I think I got there. Unfortunately, it means that 33rd

Well, this is strange. I actually think I’ve started enjoying the combat challenges more than the stealth challenges. There’s just something so satisfying about getting a big combo going – and almost always knowing exactly what you’ve done wrong when you lose it. I’m really getting a lot better, too. I managed my first perfect

Had a quick play around with the first stealth challenge last night, as both Batman and The Joker. Batman felt a lot easier – he can use the gargoyles, after all – but using Mr. J forced me to play better and I got a much better time as the Clown Prince of Crime than

Finished off the secrets last night, without having to resort to the Internet. I feel special. Also got a few more trophies, some for getting secrets, one for gliding a long way and then the “World’s Greatest Detective” one. Excellent. Had a quick go at the first challenge room and scraped a medal, but I’m

Only played for an hour or so last night. Just wandered around the near-empty asylum clearing out the secrets I missed when I played through the story. Mainly concentrated on finishing off the Medical Centre, but I found quite a few in Arkham West, too. There are a few in the tunnels linking bits of

I finally got the full game on Saturday morning. I couldn’t play until both the wife and I were ready – she wanted to watch me play so she could see the story – so ended up playing Saturday afternoon, then Saturday evening, for a total of four or five hours. Then on Sunday I

I played through this again last night after putting the PS3 on to watch Resident Evil: Degeneration. (It’s not awful, but not great. The action’s good and the plot seems okay, but the actual way the plot is told is woeful.) I spent a lot of time playing with the final bad guy in the

“I’m Batman.” No, really, I am. This game, you see, lets me be The Batman in a way no other game ever has. And not just any Batman, but a Kevin Conroy-voiced Batman going up against a Mark Hamill-voiced Joker and Arleen Sorkin-voiced Harley Quinn. Which is to say, that if you were ever a

It’s very, very good. Not much different from the other recent Lego games, but that’s no bad thing. I played through the first Hero story and only stopped because I was physically unable to play any more.
