The other 25% of the game is platforming and puzzle solving, actually it's more like stealth action. This part of the game is still good but not as fun as combat, the stealth action is great because it mixes combat and puzzle solving. I don't have much to say because I haven't beaten it yet but I still wanted to write this review.
Let me touch on the sound and graphics, the voice acting is topnotch with The Joker taking the gold. The graphics are just awesome, I still can't believe this is an Unreal Engine 3 game. Overall Batman AA is a great game with only one complaint tapping A over and over again get boring really quick. Batman Arkham Asylum gets a 4.5 out of 5.
Update(Contains Spoilers): I just beat the game and I have a few more things to say, for one the game is short. At the time of writing the original review I was about 5 or so hours in and I stop for the day, I started playing the day after and beat it in one sitting. Another problem I have looking back at it now was the bosses sucked, even the battle with The Joker was terrible. I think Bane and Ivy were the only bosses you actually fought, every other boss you fought the henchman and finished the boss in a cutscene, the one boss that was good but you didn't fight was Scarecrow you fight him 3 times in the game and the last fight starts with the game messing up, freezing, and the screen goes black, then the game starts and your playing the beginning of the game as The Joker. This boos fight is the best in the whole game. After you beat the game you can explore the Asylum and finish up any riddles you didn't. Overall after beating the game and taking it in more the game is still really good. 4 out of 5.
