Thank you! I’m so glad this content resonates with you-there’s nothing better than diving into all the little details of a favorite franchise. Plenty more to come!
In a morbid way, the Zsaz holding Young hostage moment is one of my favs and most distinct for me, because it really was one of the more real life and really serious situations I’ve seen Batman in. A very well voiced acted segment too with how terrified Young sounded.
There were only 5 tidbits mentioned here I didn't know myself, surprising that even after all these years you can still learn more things when you think you know it all. The attention to detail in the Arkham Games is incredible, you did a good job representing them!
5:47 It may be obvious, but keep watching for a few seconds, and an inmate will appear on the screen ripping the camera out. A nice touch that prevents this scene from just being a loop of guys running.
Fun fact, when you're telling us about the clocktower, it's not Batman we see, but Robin for a flash second. It happens a few times within the Scarecrow scenes. There's a loooot of hidden references here. For example: The chamber that's filled with gas, will have this ticker that asks for Dr. Clooney. A reference to George Clooney. Also Cilliam Murphy is mentioned as a Doctor in this game. As a coworker I believe to The Scarecrow. A nod because he was The Scarecrow in the Nolan movies. And another one that was the Voice Actor in one of the Batman animated series. I believe it was the New Batman Adventures. (Essentially the original TAS but with a bigger cast). And the Batmobile that gets tossed in the river is actually shown as a blueprint in the Batcave of Arkham Origins. Really liked this. And looking forward to Part 2! But definitely don't be afraid for longer content videos either. I'd definitely be watching a video of any of the Arkham Games for over 2 hours.
3:29, what I love is that Joker says "What's up, doc?" At first it appears he's just making a joke, but it's actually subtle foreshadowing to Dr. Young's role in this game.
This is exactly the kind of stuff I needed during my Batman revisit, there's some stuff here I never knew about! Great job on the research, and good luck on the rest of the series :DD
Thank you so much! I’m so glad I could add some new insights to your Batman revisit. There’s always something new to discover in these games! I really appreciate your kind words, and I’m excited to keep going with the rest of the series. Stay tuned!
@@ArkhamAnalysis No problem! Your passion for the series shows, and I'm excited to stick around! (Good luck on the bigger games though, those sound like a nightmare x_x)
24:15 There's something about the skeletons that makes me wonder if it's an intentional detail. In Arkham Knight thugs will talk about how Batman hits harder when he's on fear gas because he can't focus on holding back, and skeletons only need a single "knockdown" hit to take out.
One thing I've always liked about the Scarecrow sections is the expert use of Dutch tilts, A filmmaking method used to portray a feeing of unease or just to make it feel... Off. I can't recall the origin tho.
Absolutely! The Dutch tilts in the Scarecrow sections add such a subtle but powerful feeling of unease. It’s such a smart filmmaking technique that really enhances the atmosphere. Love that you noticed that!
@@onigames7309 Never seen it, So I can't say. But an example I can think of right now is In MI-1 (1996) During the scene where Kittridge Confronts Hunt about the moles. If you haven't seen It, then I apologize.
14:54 so funny story. I never seen Scarecrow before this game. I guess I missed all his episodes in syndication on tv when watching TAS. So this whole segment really scared me and threw me for a loop because I never knew Batman had “don’t believe your eyes” type of villain and I thought they actually had guts to kill Gordon in this game and then morgue scene happened.
I did a replay of the trilogy a few months ago and it was insane how well Asylum holds up for a 15 year old game , and the first in the Series. Great video 💯
Wanna have some brain break? Sonic and Knuckles was as old when Batman: Arkham Asylum came out as AA is now. So was TES: Arena. So was Final Fantasy VI. Not VII, VI. So was _Earthbound_ ffs.
That’s awesome-revisiting the series is such a treat! 🦇💛 I’m glad my video could be a part of your Batman fixation. Enjoy the playthrough, and thanks for watching!
The thing about Titan that's weird is that it's advertised in Arkham. In the hallways when Sharp is talking, he'll introduce Dr. Young and she talk about the "Titan process" her research has led to. So Titan had to have originally started as something Young was working on before Joker. Her bio says that she was hired to head of Arkham R&D and Sharp was always adamant about curing Joker. The most likely scenario is that Young was hired for some early work on Titan as a concept. She got some funding from Sharp who was getting money from Ra's and thought it would help him win the race for mayor. What's not really clear is what it was originally supposed to be as far as a treatment goes. No one would advertise the work they do for a lunatic wanting an army roid rage monsters to attack the city if there was never any other use for Titan.
I’ll never forget back in 2010, when my mom took me to GameStop, and I didn’t know what to play, so when she asked the guy behind the counter what to get, he recommended to me elder scrolls oblivion, and Batman Arkham Asylum for the Xbox 360, which was one of the only consoles I had at the time, next to the ps2, anyway- I was familiar with Batman more, I loved Batman Begins and Batman Beyond, so I played Batman first, the rest is history.
People praise the thug dialogue in the other games, yet it's awesome that it's been here since the start! Also, I never noticed near the end that Young Bruce has Batman's shadow, it's so cool and feels like imagery that's straight from the comics!! Definitely looking forward to future installments!
Absolutely! The thug dialogue adds so much character, even from the very beginning. And that Batman shadow on young Bruce-such an amazing touch! It really does feel like a page right out of the comics. Thanks for watching, and I can’t wait to share more!
As a fellow lifelong Batman fan with BTAS, The Batman 2004, comics, and JL/JLU, these games were a childhood/teen-hood STAPLE for me. I always get nostalgic playing these games. I will never get tired of them
Incredibly well made! Definitely sticking around for part 2 and beyond. And 1 in 8 people subscribing from the very first video? That's impressive and speaks to the quality of your work.
Finding a new Arkham/ Batman channel is super exciting. Especially because these game were also my full introduction to Batman. I knew him before but this is what got me fully into it. Also with the live feed at 5:47 if you watch long enough one of the inmates will break the camera, turning off the feed.
Something that always stood out to me is the hush riddle. Hush had a character bio in Arkham asylum. But Batman’s first time meeting hush in universe is in Arkham city. Which makes me think the character bios in asylum were retconned. Kind of like the penguin poster you can find in game having a comic accurate monocle vs the bottom of a bottle he has over his eye he has in the rest of the games. I love this kind of content in-depth analysis of the Arkham games. I’m subscribing
Thank you! The Hush riddle and character bio in Asylum always stood out to me too-it’s such an interesting detail considering City is their 'first' meeting in-universe. And that change with Penguin's monocle is another fascinating example of how the lore evolved across the games. I’m so glad you’re enjoying the in-depth analysis-welcome aboard, and thanks for subscribing!
@@ArkhamAnalysisArkham Asylum implies that Batman has already gone through some version of all his existing myths. It’s a veteran Batman, for veteran fans.
Wow, thank you! That’s awesome to hear from a true Arkham expert! It's amazing how these games keep surprising us, even after all those playthroughs. Glad I could bring some new discoveries your way!
@ArkhamAnalysis Like, I've never noticed Joker actually running away when Combat starts, as I've never thought to turn on Detective Vision during the fight. And I always just follow Joker so I didn't know the guards had that much dialogue just at the start.
That’s awesome! Arkham Asylum is such a classic-earning that platinum must’ve felt incredible back in the PS3 days! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video, and totally agree-it’ll always be one of the greats!
Great video on many lvls. Really picked out the smallest details while making it interesting and easy to watch. Type of video you can watch either hyper focused or playing in background. I loved it. Can’t wait for part 2!
Thank you so much! I’m thrilled to hear it works for both deep dives and background watching-that’s exactly what I was going for! Part 2 is on the way, and I can’t wait to share it with you!
15:34 I think the beetle motif is meant to be a reference to the original Arkham asylum comic, where Amadeus’s mom tries to eat beetles in a flashback. This is also why the spirits of Arkham slabs have a beetle insignia
Completely agree! The environment in Asylum is just unmatched-every detail adds so much atmosphere and depth. It really feels alive, and discovering all those references and Easter eggs makes it unforgettable. Thanks for sharing!
Loving this series already! The arkham games are my favorite videogames ever, even though I haven't played them in years, I really appreciate you showing love to these games to this day. I look forward to future videos!
Thank you so much! 🦇💛 The Arkham games are truly timeless, and I’m so glad to hear they’re your favorites too. It means a lot that you’re enjoying the series-I can’t wait to share more with you!
Wow surprised I learned new things about one of my favorite series of all time! Can’t wait for part 2 and the rest of the series! Also wanted to say the Arkham series also made me love the riddler to use to hate him till 09
Thank you! I’m so glad you learned something new-it’s always awesome connecting with other Arkham fans! Totally agree about the Riddler; these games really gave him depth. Part 2 is on the way, so stay tuned!
I'm glad someone else agrees that Arkham Asylum Scarecrow is peak and that Arkham Shadow didn't try to retcon him into always acting/sounding like his Arkham Knight version.
I’d rather choose to believe he turned into that due to the events at the asylum. Like what happened with croc + events after while planning his revenge gave him the more serious and shows manship
very clever analysis, i've played this game 3 or 4 times and some of those details I have missed in all of my plays and just realizing them now with the video, great job detective!
Thank you, detective! 🕵️♂️ I’m so glad I could bring some new details to light-there’s always more to uncover in these games. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Can't wait for the next video, I have played this game hundreds of times and am a huge BatMan fan. But I did not notice the things you pointed out. Awesome
I have played Arkham Asylum long time ago. And recently I decided to replay it, making me want to explore the rest of the Arkham series. So this channel appearing right now is a perfect match. Wishing you luck with this channel!
Thank you so much! That’s awesome timing-revisiting Asylum and diving into the rest of the series is such a treat. I’m glad the channel found you at the right moment, and I really appreciate the well wishes!
This was quite enjoyable to watch Cant wait for part 2. An interesting detail that's worth mentioning, when taking joker through the hallways to his cell you can notice some guards having tags that say trainee on them and will usually stay behind the trained guards
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it! And great observation-that’s an awesome detail with the 'trainee' tags! Love how the game adds layers of realism even in small ways. Part 2 is coming soon!
I found this channel and you were at 29 subs earlier, now 58. Glad to see you're hitting the algorithm. I've played through these games dozens of times and almost never see anything new, even in the videos that claim to have new hidden stuff. Also love the channel logo lol
Thank you! It’s awesome to see the channel growing, and I'm glad you’re enjoying the content! I know what you mean-there's so much to discover in these games even after countless playthroughs. And I’m glad you like the logo!
Can’t wait for part 2! I have damn near grown up with this series. Asylum came out when I was 7, and I have played almost every game, I might even end up getting shadows, still learn so much
Wow never knew I missed so many little interactions. These are my favorite games of all time and I still don’t know everything 15 years later. You’ve earned this sub can’t wait for more episodes!
I've seen pretty much all the arkham lore content there is and I still found some new information in this video. the level of detail in all arkham games is beyond fascinating, and I'm glad people like you and gotham paladin are finding these things. gained an instant sub, hope your channel grows more, it's absolutely deserved
Thank you so much! The level of detail in the Arkham games truly is incredible, and it’s amazing to share that passion with others who love it just as much. I’m honored to be mentioned alongside Gotham Paladin, and I really appreciate the sub. Can’t wait to keep bringing more content your way!
@@ArkhamAnalysis I think it's fair that if you work on the videos as hard as you do, you should be mentioned alongside Paladin, right? I've played all the games many, MANY times, gotten every achievement there is and installed mods to access otherwise blocked areas, but I STILL find new stuff in videos like yours and paladin's. atp I know Gotham's streets better than the city I grew up in XD
I am a fan of this series ever since playing Arkham City all those years ago. On the week leading up to halloween, I bought myself a collection containing the 3 main titles, developed by Rocksteady, mainly for nostalgic reasons and to finish what I started back on my days as an Xbox gamer. As I near the 100% mark on Arkham Knight, I find your channel, overanalyzing the first game with an eye for detail. The details worthy of a devoted fan of Batman to know, found in your capable hands. I will be watching your channel with great interest, Detective. Even after the blunder of the squad, the bat-signal still shines in this fandom. Enjoy your stay at Arkham Asylum...
Thank you so much! I’m thrilled you can feel the love I have for this game-it’s such a joy to share. More fun facts and deep dives are definitely on the way!
Well, this is definitely a series worth overanalyzing. I've seen a lot of hidden details and easter egg videos for the series over the years, but you still got some new ones I haven't seen before (some of the shadow details, but especially the extra conversations at the beginning). Hope to see more.
Thank you so much! The Arkham series is definitely worth overanalyzing-there’s just so much packed into every corner. I’m glad I could bring some new details your way, and guess what? Part 2 is up now-hope you enjoy it!
Found this right on time for my millionth Arkham asylum campaign. I always loved how this game almost seemed like a playable episode of the animated series with a bit darker tone.
Perfect timing for your millionth playthrough! 😄 I completely agree-Arkham Asylum really does feel like a darker, more immersive episode of the animated series. It’s such a masterpiece!
This was great! There were a lot of details I never knew about even after several playthroughs of this game. Can't wait for more videos! Keep up the good work!
Thank you! I’m so glad I could bring some new details to light-it’s amazing how much these games have to uncover. More videos are definitely on the way!
Thank you, fellow Arkham geek! 💪 I’m so glad this popped up for you-there’s nothing like diving back into these amazing games. More videos are on the way!
Something interesting with Arkham City i noticed the other day: when you emter the Solomon Wayne Courthouse to save Catwoman you can notice that the left half of the courthouse is clean and orderly, and the right side is burnt and damaged, just like Two-Face
Hope you have success on TH-cam Been thinking of starting my own batman/Arkham channel Like you've I've been a fan of the dark night since the first animated series and grew up on the Arkham games. Played them all and bought a meta quest just for shadows. I support and sub to any channel dedicated to Arkham batman and wish them the best. Especially when they put in great work like yourself. Best of luck on your journey
Went to watch the rest if the videos and saw you were a new account with fresh vids, cant say i wasnt sad i couldnt binge but happy i found a new channel
Thank you so much! I really appreciate you checking out the rest of the videos. I may be just getting started, but there’s lots more on the way, so stay tuned!
Thank you so much for subscribing! 🦇💛 Hearing that this is your new favorite Arkham channel means the world to me. More exciting content is on the way!
Thank you! I’m so glad I could bring some new details to light-there’s so much to uncover in these games. Can’t wait to share even more in the next videos!
9:28 - This legit happened to me. Had no idea how the riddles worked. I found it so frustrating and Riddler's rant so grating I actually left the game for a week or so!
I’m always thinking about Arkham and I love the format, showing all the details and lore After doing the main games maybe you could do SSKTJL since the hate has dialed down! Great work!
Thank you! So glad you’re enjoying the deep dive into all the details and lore. Covering Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League could be a lot of fun after the main games-I’ll definitely keep it in mind!
Something that I think you missed: If you take too long to save Dr. Young, Joker strikes up a conversation over the monitors/loudspeakers and convinces Zsasz to kill her anyway.
You should consider making gameplay of the games after you finish this series, I knew a decent amount of this but I did learn some new and interesting facts
Good video, I actually finished Arkham asylum yesterday and it was first playthrough, and I really missed out this game when I was growing up, still great job on the analysis, I hope to see part 2 soon!
Thank you, and congrats on finishing Arkham Asylum! Experiencing it for the first time is such a treat, even years later. I’m so glad you enjoyed the analysis-part 2 is on the way!
Thank you! I totally agree-these games are packed with so many details that are easy to miss. I’m excited to keep uncovering them and sharing more with everyone!
it starts in asylum and goes into overdrive in arkham city when you fight random goons or start taking them down in predator section the most epic music starts playing
Your first video and I'm already hooked. Kevin also did the voice of Joe Chill in the second Scarecrow sequence. If you go into the greenhouse before you stop the thugs trashing the Batmobile, you see a couple of armed Akrham guards. Go back to it when looking for Poison Ivy, you see that Mr. Zsasz killed them.
Thank you so much-glad to have you hooked from the start! And awesome catch! Kevin voicing Joe Chill adds so much depth, and that detail with the guards in the greenhouse is so haunting. It’s these small touches that make the game unforgettable!
10:02 Something I noticed recently, and I may be just crazy, but in the original game there's a big cloud in front of the moon that looks like Batman in the game's menu
Thank you! I’m right there with you-the little details make the Arkham games so special! Glad you enjoyed the video; more deep dives are coming your way!
" I'll be watching your career with great interest "
Thank you! I’ll do my best to keep it interesting-glad to have you along for the ride!

I’d rather choose to believe he turned into that due to the events at the asylum. Like what happened with croc + events after while planning his revenge gave him the more serious and shows manship
very clever analysis, i've played this game 3 or 4 times and some of those details I have missed in all of my plays and just realizing them now with the video, great job detective!
Thank you, detective! 🕵️♂️ I’m so glad I could bring some new details to light-there’s always more to uncover in these games. Glad you enjoyed the video!
So good that you point out things even i missed, well done.
Thank you! I’m so glad I could bring some new details to light. There’s so much to unpack in these games-it’s always fun to explore together!
Can't wait for the next video, I have played this game hundreds of times and am a huge BatMan fan. But I did not notice the things you pointed out. Awesome
I have played Arkham Asylum long time ago. And recently I decided to replay it, making me want to explore the rest of the Arkham series.
So this channel appearing right now is a perfect match. Wishing you luck with this channel!
Thank you so much! That’s awesome timing-revisiting Asylum and diving into the rest of the series is such a treat. I’m glad the channel found you at the right moment, and I really appreciate the well wishes!
This was quite enjoyable to watch Cant wait for part 2. An interesting detail that's worth mentioning, when taking joker through the hallways to his cell you can notice some guards having tags that say trainee on them and will usually stay behind the trained guards
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it! And great observation-that’s an awesome detail with the 'trainee' tags! Love how the game adds layers of realism even in small ways. Part 2 is coming soon!
I found this channel and you were at 29 subs earlier, now 58. Glad to see you're hitting the algorithm. I've played through these games dozens of times and almost never see anything new, even in the videos that claim to have new hidden stuff. Also love the channel logo lol
Thank you! It’s awesome to see the channel growing, and I'm glad you’re enjoying the content! I know what you mean-there's so much to discover in these games even after countless playthroughs. And I’m glad you like the logo!
Can’t wait for part 2! I have damn near grown up with this series. Asylum came out when I was 7, and I have played almost every game, I might even end up getting shadows, still learn so much
Wow never knew I missed so many little interactions. These are my favorite games of all time and I still don’t know everything 15 years later. You’ve earned this sub can’t wait for more episodes!
Surprisingly well detailed and done for a 1st video with somethings I wasn't aware of, well done
Not a single reference to the Batman Arkham Aslume insanity over on reddit? That takes some restraint, good job!
Oh damn... You're TH-cam channel just got here. Nice, I'm gonna subscribe so I can say I was A1 since day 1 when you eventually hit a million.
Thank you! Love the A1 since day 1 energy! 😄 Your support means so much-let’s see where this journey takes us!
cant wait to see more from this channel
Thank you! More is definitely on the way-can’t wait to share it with you!
As someone who just beat Asylum again, getting this recommended to me is fantastic, subbed
I've seen pretty much all the arkham lore content there is and I still found some new information in this video. the level of detail in all arkham games is beyond fascinating, and I'm glad people like you and gotham paladin are finding these things. gained an instant sub, hope your channel grows more, it's absolutely deserved
Thank you so much! The level of detail in the Arkham games truly is incredible, and it’s amazing to share that passion with others who love it just as much. I’m honored to be mentioned alongside Gotham Paladin, and I really appreciate the sub. Can’t wait to keep bringing more content your way!
@@ArkhamAnalysis I think it's fair that if you work on the videos as hard as you do, you should be mentioned alongside Paladin, right? I've played all the games many, MANY times, gotten every achievement there is and installed mods to access otherwise blocked areas, but I STILL find new stuff in videos like yours and paladin's. atp I know Gotham's streets better than the city I grew up in XD
I am a fan of this series ever since playing Arkham City all those years ago. On the week leading up to halloween, I bought myself a collection containing the 3 main titles, developed by Rocksteady, mainly for nostalgic reasons and to finish what I started back on my days as an Xbox gamer. As I near the 100% mark on Arkham Knight, I find your channel, overanalyzing the first game with an eye for detail. The details worthy of a devoted fan of Batman to know, found in your capable hands.
I will be watching your channel with great interest, Detective. Even after the blunder of the squad, the bat-signal still shines in this fandom. Enjoy your stay at Arkham Asylum...
New Arkham TH-camr huh? Looks like im subbing
Fun facts coupled with narration that just shine with your love of the game! Look forward to more!
Thank you so much! I’m thrilled you can feel the love I have for this game-it’s such a joy to share. More fun facts and deep dives are definitely on the way!
Amazing video. Keep it up. I can't wait for part 2
Thank you so much! Part 2 is coming soon-I can’t wait for you to see it!
Keep up the greatwork! can't wait for over analyzing City!
Solid start to the channel! welcome to the batman creator club :)
Thank you so much! I’m excited to join the Batman creator club-it’s awesome to be part of such a passionate community!
Well, this is definitely a series worth overanalyzing. I've seen a lot of hidden details and easter egg videos for the series over the years, but you still got some new ones I haven't seen before (some of the shadow details, but especially the extra conversations at the beginning). Hope to see more.
Thank you so much! The Arkham series is definitely worth overanalyzing-there’s just so much packed into every corner. I’m glad I could bring some new details your way, and guess what? Part 2 is up now-hope you enjoy it!
Found this right on time for my millionth Arkham asylum campaign. I always loved how this game almost seemed like a playable episode of the animated series with a bit darker tone.
Perfect timing for your millionth playthrough! 😄 I completely agree-Arkham Asylum really does feel like a darker, more immersive episode of the animated series. It’s such a masterpiece!
This was great! There were a lot of details I never knew about even after several playthroughs of this game. Can't wait for more videos! Keep up the good work!
Thank you! I’m so glad I could bring some new details to light-it’s amazing how much these games have to uncover. More videos are definitely on the way!
This has been popping into my feed a few times, glad I finally check it out! Also, call me crazy but your voice kinda reminds me of Oracle’s sometimes
Wow, thanks!
Prometheus makes a cameo as an Easter egg riddle on a wanted poster when you revisit the place where Harley Quinn puts joker gas in the room 🗿🗿🗣️🗣️
One of the reasons I love the Batman Arkham games are the small little details that can play a huge part of the game later on. Amazing video btw! 😁👍
As a fellow Arkham-obsessed geek, finding this in my recommended was a nice refresher. Great video! 💪
Thank you, fellow Arkham geek! 💪 I’m so glad this popped up for you-there’s nothing like diving back into these amazing games. More videos are on the way!
Something interesting with Arkham City i noticed the other day: when you emter the Solomon Wayne Courthouse to save Catwoman you can notice that the left half of the courthouse is clean and orderly, and the right side is burnt and damaged, just like Two-Face
Hope you have success on TH-cam
Been thinking of starting my own batman/Arkham channel
Like you've I've been a fan of the dark night since the first animated series and grew up on the Arkham games. Played them all and bought a meta quest just for shadows.
I support and sub to any channel dedicated to Arkham batman and wish them the best. Especially when they put in great work like yourself. Best of luck on your journey
Went to watch the rest if the videos and saw you were a new account with fresh vids, cant say i wasnt sad i couldnt binge but happy i found a new channel
Thank you so much! I really appreciate you checking out the rest of the videos. I may be just getting started, but there’s lots more on the way, so stay tuned!
Subscribed. Arkham Analysis, new favorite Arkham Channel
Thank you so much for subscribing! 🦇💛 Hearing that this is your new favorite Arkham channel means the world to me. More exciting content is on the way!
@@ArkhamAnalysis
Looking forward to it, Double A
I'm a simple man. I see Arkham content, I watch. Great stuff. Excited for more!
Simple and legendary! 🦇 Thanks so much for the support-more Arkham content is on the way!
You've pointed out things I've seen no other analysis cover! Actually learned things from this video
Thank you! I’m so glad I could bring some new details to light-there’s so much to uncover in these games. Can’t wait to share even more in the next videos!
9:28 - This legit happened to me. Had no idea how the riddles worked. I found it so frustrating and Riddler's rant so grating I actually left the game for a week or so!
Holy shit I was shocked when I saw that this was your first video keep it up!!!! 😎
Dang I was ready for the next video. I can’t wait to see more soon!
Thank you! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the content-more videos are on the way, so stay tuned!
Gotta say, this video was great! There were some things that I didn't even know about, you've earned a sub!
Thank you so much! I’m thrilled to hear I could bring some new details to light. Really appreciate the sub-lots more to come!
@ArkhamAnalysis I was expecting you to be some high end TH-camr, I was taken by surprise when I saw that you were a smaller creator such as me
New goated arkham channel just dropped
I’m always thinking about Arkham and I love the format, showing all the details and lore
After doing the main games maybe you could do SSKTJL since the hate has dialed down!
Great work!
Thank you! So glad you’re enjoying the deep dive into all the details and lore. Covering Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League could be a lot of fun after the main games-I’ll definitely keep it in mind!
Something that I think you missed: If you take too long to save Dr. Young, Joker strikes up a conversation over the monitors/loudspeakers and convinces Zsasz to kill her anyway.
The arkham series have been my favourite games since i first played arkham city when i was a kid
Fantastic video, im excited for more!
Thank you so much! The Arkham series has that lasting magic, doesn’t it? I’m excited to share more-plenty more videos coming your way!
You should consider making gameplay of the games after you finish this series, I knew a decent amount of this but I did learn some new and interesting facts
9:45 "You're Heisenberg."
"You're Goddamn right."
Speaking if the arkham asylum notification sound, that is my notification sound, and I can't wait to hear it when part 2 comes out
Good video, I actually finished Arkham asylum yesterday and it was first playthrough, and I really missed out this game when I was growing up, still great job on the analysis, I hope to see part 2 soon!
Thank you, and congrats on finishing Arkham Asylum! Experiencing it for the first time is such a treat, even years later. I’m so glad you enjoyed the analysis-part 2 is on the way!
brilliant video ! and i swear theres so much they packed into these games that everyone casually just skips or runs by
Batman Lore Expert Debunkes the Arkham TimeLine
th-cam.com/users/livegjJHZCXT5Q0?si=aPO_RQSgG1MlMvpX
Thank you! I totally agree-these games are packed with so many details that are easy to miss. I’m excited to keep uncovering them and sharing more with everyone!
i initially thought i'd have a whole backlog of videos to watch, if your first video is this good i can't wait to see your next
Thank you so much! I’m thrilled you enjoyed the first video, and there’s plenty more to come. Can’t wait to share what’s next with you!
15 years! Where has the time gone 😭
Arkham Analysis im looking forward to seeing your channel grow❤
it starts in asylum and goes into overdrive in arkham city
when you fight random goons or start taking them down in predator section the most epic music starts playing
Your first video and I'm already hooked.
Kevin also did the voice of Joe Chill in the second Scarecrow sequence.
If you go into the greenhouse before you stop the thugs trashing the Batmobile, you see a couple of armed Akrham guards. Go back to it when looking for Poison Ivy, you see that Mr. Zsasz killed them.
Thank you so much-glad to have you hooked from the start! And awesome catch! Kevin voicing Joe Chill adds so much depth, and that detail with the guards in the greenhouse is so haunting. It’s these small touches that make the game unforgettable!
10:02 Something I noticed recently, and I may be just crazy, but in the original game there's a big cloud in front of the moon that looks like Batman in the game's menu
Good video, I subbed
Cool channel, hope to see more stuff on here
Thank you! More content is definitely on the way-stay tuned!
I love the Arkham games! I love the little details in these games. ♥️ great video!
Thank you! I’m right there with you-the little details make the Arkham games so special! Glad you enjoyed the video; more deep dives are coming your way!
@@ArkhamAnalysis ♥️ definitely a subscribe!! Long live The Bat! 🦇
Loved this, really looking forward to more!
Thank you so much! I’m thrilled you enjoyed it-Part 2 is up now, so I hope you enjoy that too!
Despite being 15 years old, this game is still incredible compared to a lot of recent games these days. Great video 💯
This video is so good. A really great analysis of this game; you really did it justice. Hope to see more from you on this channel.👍
Thank you so much! I’m thrilled you enjoyed the analysis-it means a lot to hear I did the game justice. More videos are definitely on the way!
Hell yeah, can't wait for part 2
Part 2 is coming soon-can't wait for you to see it!
Cool idea for a series
Thank you! I’m excited to keep it going-more episodes are on the way!
