Arkham, a place of Maddness!
Hey all,
Yes I know, I have
been incredibly slack lately, I'd like to blame it on something cool like “I
was on a secret mission to save the world." However the truth is far less
interesting. I have been working, and life has been full on. So I have reviewed
my decision to post every day to posting once to twice a week.
So one of my Geek
directions lately has been the Dark Knight Rises, which both lived up
to my expectations and left me feeling like I am missing something. Like I lost
a dear friend.
I won't go too
deep into the Movie as I really don't want to spoil it for any of my readers.
I enjoyed it; it was a great climax to Nolan’s Batman Trilogy. Bane was
outstanding and lived up to my hopes of being more than a physical challenge
for the Dark Knight.
Feeling the pull
of the Batman universe once again, I decided to fire up my Xbox and begin
playing Batman Arkham Asylum again. Instantly I am blown away at the perfection
and detail placed into this game, for any fan of the comics/ Cartoon series it
really is a must play.
Mark Hamil's
performance as Joker is outstanding, his ghoulish laugh and performance as
joker tickles my heart. The more and more I play this game I find Hamil's
performance replaces my inner voice when I read lines from the joker in the comics.
His subtle inflections transition easily from manic to murderous, it is
fantastic.
Instantly you are
drawn into this story and world where Batman is trapped inside Arkham asylum
with Joker and his fiendish henchman. With Harley Quinn taunting you as you
make your way through the island. The game highlights Batman as a detective
first brawler second.
While this isn't a
new game I urge you all to play it, but it and the sequel on Steam/ Xbox/ Ps3.
