Small notes on Arkham Asylum:
-It's amazingly good, even if you dont give two shits about Bats. I played for less than a couple of hours and there's everything in this: ultra cool stealth, bad ass beatings, lots of brainy moments and a lot of seriously unnerving moments.
-The graphics are uber-cool. And dont fear, if you dont have a ballsy PC. It runs perfectly even on a somehow out-of-date machine like the one i have.
-It could be Hamill's best performance as the Joker ever. And also one of the best portraits of the clown prince of crime. He has those badass lines that he had in the best episodes of the animated series (If you dont know how joker was then, just imagine him as the most sadistic prick you cant think of). There were moments when he started teasing me in-game and laughed with that chilling cackle of his, where i lost all sympathy for the character and seriously hated him. But he's also frighteningly funny.
"You're not going to escape Joker"
"I dont want to escape, i'm having way too much fun. I'm even having you here to keep a smile on my face. Who knows, maybe i'll film it and post it on the internet!"
-You feels finally how it's like to be a genius/trained ninja/muscular badass with a thousand gadget and a BIG attitude. You'll see.
