    I don't find the stealth parts interesting, the placement of those gargoyles are too convenient.

    AA was easily the most enjoyable game of 2009. Sure, the combat was easy and the gargoyles made most of the Metal Gear Solid sections ridiculously easy apart from the two last ones but GodDAMN was it a FUN game. It had style, looked beautiful, had excellent voice acting, the combat was a fucking kung-fu orgasm of bone-crunching graceful brutality with a lot of different and creative ways of ripping the kidneys out of Joker thugs and the stealth sections were oh-so-very Batman. Even the scavenger hunts were fun to me, with lame little riddles you actually needed a minimum of thought to solve, even though most of them were mainly there to inject other DC character cameos into the game.

    The only downside to it was the relative lack of interesting bossfights, with them just throwing one of those deformed giants at you every now and again whom you'd defeat in exactly the same way as the last one.

    Oh, and Harley. Fuck Harley, she's a horrible character.
