1UP Pod

We're back with episode 2 of the 1UP Pod! This month, hosted by Becky, we take a look at Rocksteady's 2009 game Batman: Arkham Asylum. Largely considered the best superhero video game of all time, we delve into all the things that makes it an all time classic. The rogues gallery, combat system, the way Batman walks through doors... Pots! All crammed into this bumper edition of the 1UP Pod.
