another good game ruined for me :(

Batman: Arkham Asylum. 37€ (on the PC)
...

10 hours on saturday and another 6~ish on sunday
...

GAME OVER.


WHAT THE FUCK?
yes, i "only" have like 69% completed. but the story mode is OVER. i can run around the asylum as much as i want... not a single bad guy to hit or anything. just run around and find the remaining 31% of secrets.

i played the medium difficulty. after finishing it i started a game in the hardest difficulty but i had to stop. not because it was too hard for me (well i admit i died more than usually, hehe) but because the fact that in order to beat anything but more than 3 guys as same time requires the same strategy over... and over... and over: hit, evade jump, hit, evade jump, rinse and repeat. not only does it take ages, but it's also boring as hell.

i am the "story mode guy". reason why i also HATE l4d: i finished that game in less than one evening.

game industry is allways whining that they lose soooo much money on piracy. well FUCK YOU mister game industry. maybe if you did DECENT GAMES at DECENT PRICES people would actually buy your shit. besides, ps3 can't be pirated and Sony whines as much as the others.

arkham asylum is a very nice game. i love it... as long as it lasts. i can't believe someone would pay around 50€ (on the PS3) for a game that can be beaten in like 20 hours. that's like 2,5€ the hour geez!
yes, tons of nice secrets to find, nice challenges and all that... but even if you take your time to find every single secret before proceeding to the next screen, you'll finish the game in around a week or two, depending how many hours per day you play. that's shitloads of money for little hours of entertainement TBH.

and then... don't get me started with the milking of DLC. yes, downloading content is usually cheap on the XBOX... but as some game review magazines stated: way to release an unfinished BETA you have to pay for, and then keep paying for the rest of the game.

there should be an option to have enemies, or training dummies, or WHATEVER in the game after you finished the storyline.

now i can only wait for the joker-DLC and play all the game once more... and this time i will finish it even faster because i know all the tricks already, /sigh
