Arkham Asylum got everything about the gameplay completely right, but it had the shittiest possible writing and dialogue for a AAA game. I don't expect anything particularly good from a Superhero game in general, but they went to the effort of getting all of these voice actors together and make a big stink about it being some great Batman-centric effort, but it was just trite and stupid. The sequel was worse.


You're certainly right, but I typically don't play video games for the writing. But yeah, lots of it, especially Batman, just seemed so damn generic. Plus the gameplay is so good I can forgive some shitty one-liners. Though, I found most of the voice acting in the game fantastic, especially Mark Hamill. Joker also had some fiarly decent lines himself.
