Jeff's Comment on the GOTY Bombcast

I just wanted to give a quick shout-out to Jeff for his comment regarding the combat in Batman: Arkham Asylum during the GOTY Bombcast.  He had mentioned that the gameplay and the combat mechanics were so satisfying, but there just wasn't enough of it actually put in the game, outside of the challenge rooms.  I had the same impression playing Batman.  I only played for a few hours, and I enjoyed the gameplay, but ultimately I just got bored.  I felt like it would have been a great brawler.  There just weren't any brawls. 
 
Wait.  
 
Is this a bromance?
 
Screw it.  Nevermind.

What the hell are you talking about?

I actually think they put in just the right amount of "brawling". The blend and variety of different gameplay mechanics is what made this game great.

to quote jeff- "the heart of the matter is that batman is better than uncharted!"
1 hour later - "uncharted 2 game of the year!"
 
but who am i to bitch, they made the right choice.

I think Batman was really good, but the production quality mixed with the pretty much flawless and engaging fun that Uncharted 2 had led it to be the winner for me.

I played Batman on Hard on my first run because of Jeff's review, which said it was pretty easy on the Normal difficulty.

It was a collective decision. If it was up to Jeff and Vinny, Batman would've won. "

i didnt see what the big deal was with Batman. I played through it, enjoyed it but in no way did i find it satisfying nor did it make me want to go back and play it again. Im certainly not looking forward to Batman 2.

cool story bro.

I hate to bump a thread that is three weeks old... but,
 
I was looking for a solid podcast to listen to on the drive up to visit my girlfriend's folks for the weekend.  Anyway, I noticed the GOTY Podcast was roughly 4 Hours long, (new to the site, hadn't listened to it prior).  Anyway, I must say the boring 2 hour ride back and forth went super quick because of said podcast.
 
Just wanted to say thanks!

Well it basically turned into a 3 against 1 for Uncharted toward the end. Were you expecting a 12 Angry Men to take place? "

 I played through the game twice and am currently tryping to move up on the leaderboard. The combat can have me cussing for hours, but the only major complaint I have is that it is too short and the sequel isn't out yet. Oh yeah, and the top positions in the leaderboard are obviously fucked.
