Alright, so today I got the Platinum on the first Batman game from the Arkham Trilogy called Batman Arkham Asylum.

I recently asked the community what they wanted to see first this year for Platinums,

and this one got voted well by the majority.

I hate you all.

Anyways, this is also a part of a challenge I've been

doing trying to Platinum over 100 games suggested by viewers of the channel.

And if I can't complete all of these before hitting 850,000 subscribers,

then I have to shave my head and look like a base character from a video game.

So drop a like and subscribe.

Anyways, Batman Arkham Asylum was not an easy game coming in

at a solid 6 out of 10 for difficulty on PSM profiles.

I also completely suck at Batman games as we all know from my Batman Arkham Knight video over a year ago.

So today was not fun for me or easy by any means at all.

But Batman Arkham Asylum has a total of 48 trophies inside

and it only took me 23 hours to do despite nearly crashing out again.

So let's begin with stage 1 which is to beat the story on hard

and grab the two mystical trophies within the game.

It first kicks off with a scene showing Batman capturing the Joker once more like he always does

and taking him to guess where?

Yup, Arkham Asylum.

Who would have guessed seeing as that is the game's title and what it's primarily about?

But as usual, the Joker ends up escaping and causing chaos seeing as that's all he ever does.

But this time he had multiple people on the inside and took everyone by surprise,

gaining control of Arkham Asylum almost immediately.

And we got thrown right into combat with our buttholes exposed to the world outside like an animal.

However, right away in this first combat section of the game,

I did reach a combo score of 5 for a trophy.

Yes, it's illusion actually managed to land five hits without being hit in a Batman game.

This has never been done before.

I am actually gonna bust.

But that was all the fun for a while because I actually struggled in this first combat section.

I know, it's very embarrassing and I did die.

I am so sorry to my ancestors watching down.

I failed you all.

But if one death wasn't sad enough,

I died twice and actually rage quit the game only 15 minutes into it.

This was a long day, if you can't tell.

A very long day.

But don't worry, I came back right away after and kept on playing,

because the community poll results are godder on this land and I have to do this.

Before continuing, I did also die two more times,

however it made that final enemy's death just so much more glorious for my rising heart rate to see and enjoy.

So then the game had us kind of just going through the prison section on the island that we were in,

fighting enemies when they come up,

and also trying our best to save and get the guards out of here,

since they are not combat ready and most probably worked out of 7-Eleven a few months ago.

And one of the guards we had run into was about

to be electrocuted to death in the chair by a shirtless inmate here.

So being Batman, I just glided down right behind him and tickled his nuts with glory for Gotham,

saving the first guard of the game and getting a trophy from it.

We then continued on to the place and also ran into one of two missable trophies in this game.

And it's from saving all of the guards in a room that is being flooded with poisonous gas.

Now this is missable because one,

you don't have to save anyone.

And also if you take too long,

the room will fill and they will die.

And I did it to reset checkpoint a few times also because I myself did fall into the gas.

We don't talk about it.

But the last guard you had to save was actually not a guard and just another shirtless inmate.

However, as we know, Batman doesn't kill.

Just gives terminal brain injuries,

which is probably worse to be honest.

But then we ran into the Joker finally,

who is, as we all know, Batman's biggest op.

And the main villain of this game.

But instead of fighting us himself,

he released the first of sadly many titan enemies in this game.

Now they can't really be fought hand to hand,

and instead require you to hit them with a batarang as they charge to stun them.

And I was very bad at this at first because I suck at the Batman games.

But once I did manage to get this mutated Alabama backwater ass defeated,

I got a trophy so that makes me feel a bit better about myself.

I'm just kidding.

Also, the Joker just kind of got corded away from us into the shadows.

That's supposed to be our signature move.

Okay, now I'm pissed.

But a few minutes later,

he then called us on a TV.

Jesus, this dude is obsessed with Batman.

Are we sure he doesn't just have a big crush on us?

Anyways, this is also how the Joker communicates,

messes with, and taunts us throughout the rest of the game primarily.

We hardly ever actually see him aside from on the TV.

But it's for the best,

the two might fall in love if they are within close proximity of each other.

The next trophy I got was then just another combat trophy from getting a 10 hit combo this time.

Yup, I'm basically a pro at this game now.

Also, this was gotten just in more combat with the inmates inside the prison,

seeing as we are still trying to just get out of it

while searching for key people inside who are either lost or have been kidnapped by the Joker's goons.

Eventually, I had the objective of reaching the surface,

so I did that, and we got to see a grand old view of the game's location today.

How beautiful.

A trophy.

So then the game kicks off the open-ish world for today,

and the Batman Arkham Asylum story kind of just had us going back and forth between this island's different buildings,

and there really isn't too many of them,

which is why this game,

in my opinion is actually a lot of fun aside from it being very hard.

100

Because it's actually quite simple and straightforward.

101

You know, there isn't an entire city to get lost in like the other two games in the trilogy.

102

Instead, we just get lost in the individual buildings.

103

What a trade-off.

104

And I also kind of just spent my time after being let free to the above ground by frolicking around

105

and fighting people.

106

Really had to let some stress out.

107

It's 2025 now and I'm still bitchless.

108

What is my life?

109

But doing all this fighting got me even better at the game

110

and I upgraded my combo skills to 20 as a matter of fact for another combat trophy.

111

The story then had us go to the hospital on the island

112

because there was a lot of people in there that needed assistance from none other than Batman himself.

113

And the major thing I had to do here was find

114

and rescue Dr. Kellerman who was stuck in his office with the outside of the room being completely full of toxic gas.

115

I then had to solve the gas puzzle of course which wasn't too hard if I do say so for myself.

116

Upon completing it I got the trophy from saving Doc himself.

117

We were also here in the hospital searching after Gordon who was the police commissioner

118

and a very big character in these games and Batman's universe in general as most of you probably know.

119

And finding him is also the game's entire plot kind of.

120

Like we literally search after the dude

121

and try to save him the whole time all the way up to the final boss fight which is kind of hilarious.

122

But still in the hospital though we thought we found him

123

but it was actually just Scarecrow and he sent us on a trip like he always does in these games.

124

We got sent to the first of many Parkour Hallucination trips for the day

125

which had us just trying to move forward and avoid his glaring eyes.

126

Because if he spots us trying to escape the bad trip,

127

he's gonna kill us.

128

This does not seem fair.

129

But at the end of every one of these sections,

130

there is always a Batman light shining bright for all to see,

131

and if you shine it right into Scarecrow's eyes,

132

he both loses vision, and we also escaped the bad trip.

133

The first time I did that,

134

I also got a trophy because you never forget your first time,

135

no matter how much you want to.

136

Anyways, after that, we continued to track Gordon's tobacco scent from his cigar to find him once more.

137

And right before reaching him,

138

I also found another Riddler trophy,

139

Which isn't a huge huge grind in this game although there still is over 200 of them

140

But it was actually enough for a measly 5% completed of them for a trophy

141

So I'll take it

142

and then literally right next to the trophy I dropped down into a room with Gordon

143

and Harley taking out Harley on the way in we let Gordon free

144

But in this same room as us was actually Bane just completely

145

and utterly juiced out of his mind This dude has enough

146

roids in him to build muscle for every single fitness this influencer out there.

147

And naturally, we had to fight him.

148

Seeing as Bane is a huge enemy,

149

he works just like the Titan enemy does.

150

And I did die a few times against him,

151

I'm not gonna lie, because,

152

well, I'm trashing the game.

153

However, once I finally took down all three of his health bars,

154

I got a trophy for beating him like you'd expect and hope for.

155

Bane, by the way, wasn't just on steroids.

156

He also had this toxin inserted into him,

157

which turns people insane and sometimes very big.

158

So it's a lot like expired Viagra.

159

And since Batman is the only one capable of stopping such

160

a We went to the Batcave to cook up a cure or treatment to it.

161

Yes, there is a Batcave on this island.

162

Bro has these things everywhere apparently.

163

Anyways, the next trophy I got was again another collectible one regarding the Riddler trophies

164

So here is that and my next story goal was to get into the Arkham Mansion

165

because apparently this island has a mansion on it.

166

Why the hell does a prison island have a mansion you might be asking?

167

I have no clue.

168

I'm also asking why that is.

169

I have no idea.

170

Oh my god!

171

But once I broke into it,

172

I got a trophy because getting inside was a tad bit hard seeing as the front door was locked.

173

But inside the mansion there was a ton of fighting against some decently harder enemies

174

and I almost broke down into tears I also got lost a lot

175

because the rooms in this place are confusing as a mother flipper

176

And at one point Batman also turned back into an adolescent child.

177

Don't ever take the mystery pill kids This might happen

178

and speaking of mystery pills after our balls dropped again We got sent to another scarecrow parkour section

179

and this one was a bit more complex You know,

180

that's how most of these work.

181

They get progressively harder Who would have known and I failed quite a few times before finishing this section off.

182

I'm not gonna lie However,

183

I did do it like usual and got another trophy from that.

184

And then a bit later,

185

that same shirtless inmate from the very,

186

very beginning of the game who tried to kill someone in the electric chair was back.

187

And he was holding a fine lady hostage,

188

so I hit him in the head with a batarang.

189

Take that concussion, bitch, and I'll take this trophy pop.

190

Anyways, much, much later, I would end up in this room

191

that would become very annoying in the challenge part of this trophy list because if you fight too long here,

192

the floor begins to just shock everyone on it and you die very fast.

193

So this combat section kinda sucked balls,

194

but it was also right next to a bunch of cells that can hold anyone inside.

195

And once I survived the combat,

196

we actually captured Harley Quinn and threw her in a cell.

197

That also gave me a trophy despite her probably breaking out again.

198

This place isn't up to code.

199

The next trophy I got was then from finding 25% of the real-world trophies in the game,

200

so that's neat.

201

However, the following trophy was not so simple or fun as the previous one,

202

and I had to battle against two Titan enemies at once.

203

Truly, the forbidden threesome.

204

But anyways, this fight actually could get us two trophies.

205

The one from not using any batarangs against a titan and defeating it.

206

However, I did not see that at this point,

207

so I just fought them both normally.

208

And these things aren't necessarily too hard to defeat,

209

they're more just annoying, because the hitboxes of them running into you can be a bit ridiculous sometimes.

210

But once I beat them both,

211

I got a trophy as I have mentioned.

212

The next trophy I got was then from,

213

yet again, another scarecrow section,

214

and while I'm editing this video,

215

I have noticed a very blatant pattern regarding this game's story flow.

216

You pretty much just go to every area of this island,

217

fight a few enemies, get lost trying to find the story objective,

218

then get drugged up and go on a trip with Scarecrow.

219

But it's fun, so shit, who cares?

220

And once I beat this Scarecrow section like all the others,

221

I got the trophy.

222

I then made it to the sewers for the first and final time in this game because it smells down here.

223

And I was searching for spores for research on a cure for the Joker toxin.

224

But seeing as we were in the sewers,

225

Killer Croc was also down here and tried his absolute best to consume us like the snack we are.

226

But I escaped him by just running away.

227

I knew stretching before was a good idea,

228

and here's the trophy from escaping him.

229

I then reached, in my opinion,

230

the hardest part of this entire game's main story.

231

It's one singular combat section in a room surrounded by blocked off doors and elevators.

232

There was only one titan in here,

233

but every time you knock down one of the thing's health bars,

234

the elevator brings in around 10 to 20 more enemies to fight.

235

It's actually insane how many people they shove into this room,

236

and I spent well over an hour trying to get past this.

237

During my struggle, I did get a trophy though,

238

so it wasn't a total loss of time,

239

except it definitely was a total loss of time.

240

Uh, but yeah, as I was saying,

241

I died and spent forever here.

242

Like, literally, it took so damn long, and I lost it.

243

Rest in peace to the desk,

244

it is now exposed wood.

245

But the controller I have survived.

246

Mostly because it's snowing outside,

247

and I can't drive my car to get a new one,

248

so I can't smash this one quite yet.

249

But once I made it past that,

250

and then outside into the game's atmosphere once more,

251

I actually just paused my game to go cry in a dark corner out of sheer anger and frustration.

252

I don't want to pay my taxes.

253

I then reached the second-to-last boss fight and section of the game.

254

It's against Poison Ivy.

255

And in a perfect world,

256

me and her settled down and had a family.

257

I mean, I beat the balls out of her and killed off her stupid fucking plants,

258

which gave me a trophy.

259

Let's move on.

260

I then reached the final part of this game,

261

which is a party for Batman set up by the Joker.

262

It's a trap.

263

You can't tell.

264

However, this is also where the final missable trophy of two is at.

265

And all you have to do is defeat every single enemy,

266

welcoming you into the party like a true party pooper, as they say.

267

It's now the final boss fight of the game against Joker,

268

as you would guess.

269

He also has Gordon captured again and in the electric chair.

270

Not an ideal lounging location.

271

But the Joker also injected himself with this crazy steroid toxin he created,

272

and he is now massive.

273

The fight against him, though,

274

was kind of lame because we didn't really battle him.

275

Instead, just his goons, and then did like a grapple on his back to damage him.

276

So that sucks, but after doing it three times,

277

we essentially beat him, and the game ends kind of suddenly.

278

But that's okay because I then got three trophies for finishing off the game and doing it on hard difficulty.

279

And now it's time for stage two of this game's platinum,

280

to go get all the collectibles and do anything else that is random in terms of trophies.

281

However, I actually decided to tickle my toes into stage 3 waters and do the challenge mode for quite some time.

282

Because I thought

283

that it would be better to get those done with as

284

good as I could seeing as I just finished the game and still know how to somewhat use Batman's combat and moves.

285

My theory was if I spent six hours just chasing collectibles,

286

it would hinder my memory of how to combat.

287

So yeah, I might be a genius.

288

And I got numerous trophies within doing these challenges.

289

Now we'll talk about those in a second,

290

but before going over them,

291

I wanna talk about the challenge mode real quick.

292

It features two types of challenges inside,

293

both needing to get three medals on all of them available.

294

The actual combat one is simply called a combat challenge,

295

and the other one is more of a stealth version called a predator challenge.

296

So half of the YouTube creators out there would excel with this one.

297

But in all seriousness, the predator challenges are not really a challenge.

298

There is one or two hard objectives on them,

299

but they paled in comparison to the Combat Challenge difficulty.

300

But the first trophy I got in this mess was from actually finishing a Combat Challenge without taking any damage at all,

301

becoming the ultimate Batman I was meant to be.

302

The next trophy I got was called Free Flow Bronze from getting 8 total medals on Combat Challenges,

303

and then on a Predator Challenge a few minutes later,

304

I did a miscellaneous trophy from cutting a rope with a strung-up enemy to alert another enemy right here.

305

I also then got 8 medals on the Predator Challenges following for another trophy,

306

and I finally reached a combo score of 40 for the final combat combo trophy of the game right here.

307

And over an hour later after that one,

308

I got 16 total medals on combat challenges for the second to last combat challenge trophy of the game.

309

Sadly though, that was it for stage 3 for now because I ran out of challenges to do.

310

This is because you actually unlock them from finding collectibles.

311

So I then did begin stage 2 and played for like 5 hours straight chasing down all these riddler trophies.

312

And I got 2 of them right here from finding trophies

313

before doing a side trophy from gliding for over 100 meters in one single glide right here.

314

And my next three trophies were then from just me finding the riddler trophies.

315

Upon my third trophy pop I actually found them all which wasn't that bad in my opinion compared to other games collectibles.

316

But I wasn't quite done with the collectibles

317

because I had to go find some spot in the intensive care place to wrap up a side collectible in the game.

318

And once I found this writing on the floor I finished

319

that off and we are officially 100% done with this game's collectible trophies.

320

And before heading back to the challenges I quickly did a

321

side trophy from from throwing the remote control batarang back at Batman

322

and he caught it with pure aura in a trophy pop.

323

So now I just have to complete all the challenges with three medals on each.

324

I also do have one or two side combat trophies

325

but we will get to those in the challenge mode so it's fine.

326

Before going back to the actual combat challenges I also decided

327

to just finish off the predator one since they are extremely easy to do

328

and I in fact did do them all without much trouble.

329

I did watch a video or two to assist with some of the final ones

330

because they were a bit challenging but still not too hard overall.

331

I also did a side trophy from finishing a predator challenge

332

off without using anything aside from the standard silent takedown and it wasn't that hard again you just have to be stealthy.

333

So now all that remains for the platinum is to get three medals on every combat challenge

334

and I had three left that I hadn't yet beaten.

335

Before doing those though I used every single move Batman had in one combat flow on a combat challenge

336

which was a trophy and not overly difficult to do again.

337

So anyways let's lock in because I spent three more hours doing these combat challenges.

338

And overall my method of getting these done was to try

339

and just keep the highest combo I could for as long as I could.

340

Because that maximizes points and the higher combo you get the more points you get per kill,

341

strike, and takedown.

342

But that's much easier said than done at least for me

343

since I would constantly lose my combo due to not being fast enough,

344

catching a stray punch, or most annoyingly attacking an enemy who cannot be normally hit on accident.

345

But if I have learned anything from this platinum

346

and games combat it's that practice makes perfect and hours spent on the same challenge eventually do make it easier.

347

Now with that all said here is the final combat challenge I needed to do with three medals complete and that trophy.

348

Followed with 100% completion and then the platinum trophy pop.

349

So that was the Batman Arkham Asylum platinum trophy experience.

350

Overall I think the game is super good and a lot of fun.

351

The combat is as I expected to be challenging

352

and at one point I actually really hated this game because I was just failing so much.

353

But I've begun to learn how to set aside my anger and still enjoy what is a good game.

354

Rating Batman Arkham Asylum out of 10,

355

I'll give it a solid 7.5.

356

It's not a perfect game and sometimes Batman's movement pisses me off a bit too much,

357

but it is what it is as they say.

358

So thank you all for watching and cheers to 2025.

359

Let's get after it, baby.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
