Bataman; Arkham Origins
30/10/2013
Bataman; Arkham Origins (Metacritic 74%, 8.0)on the 360 is staggeringly beautiful, (I’m going to have to go back and play the last title to see how it looks in 1080p) the textures are detailed, and the character movements slick.
The flow style battle is back, just as brutal, and fun.
Gadgets are equipped from the offset, with the ‘level-up’s’ earned
It all sounds good eh?
But my one problem with the game, why I can’t yet get excited by it, is that it’s just the same as the last one, and the one before.
And please don’t get me wrong, I’ve been a fan of Batman since his spandex days, lLet’s see who it goes as I progress; but I can hear the shanties of Black Flag calling.
After being sent to Arkham’s Coventry I remebered what I enjoyed about the Batman engine!
As with Spiderman games, it’s not about the plot and solving riddles, it’s pointlessly traversing the city and beating shit out of punks.
Guess the same goes for Assassins Creed
