games Games review What is it? The final chapter in the Arkham trilogy follows batman as he confronts the Scarecrow, who has launched an attack on Gotham City. With help from the mysterious Arkham Knight and a host of classic batman villains, this leads to a plot to finally kill the Dark Knight. The game is presented from a third-person perspective with a primary focus on Batman’s combat and stealth abilities, detective skills, and gadgets that can be used in both extreme combat and exploration. Graphics: The game expands Batman’s arsenal of gadgets and combat attacks and offers a more open world structure, allowing the player to complete side missions away from the primary storyline. The combat is as fluid and intuitive as always, and, for the first time, the game introduces the Batmobile as a playable vehicle which can be used for transportation or combat. Gameplay: The visuals are astonishingly good, especially the detail in character models and textures. Gotham City looks incredible with its neonheavy lighting, and the dazzling rain effects (which are pretty much a constant, this is a dark and gloomy game) are stunning and truly next generation. Despite the sheer amount of action on-screen and fights involving a huge gang of baddies, the frame rate very rarely dips or lags at all.
