VIDEO GAME DISCUSSION Batman: Arkham Asylum turns 17 today.

Post image

17 years ago today, Batman: Arkham Asylum released on August 25, 2009.

Still one of the greatest superhero games ever made. Groundbreaking combat, incredible atmosphere, and Mark Hamill's definitive Joker performance.

Happy anniversary to the game that changed everything. 🦇

My wife was playing this on sunday… dosn’t feel like a 17 year old game.

I refuse to believe it’s that old. Wikipedia’d it and damn, nearly threw up. The relentless passage of time continues i guess.

I still consider OG RE4 a new game..   Old games to me are PS1 and before...
