Tekken 4 truly encapsulates the essence of a phenomenal fighting game - from its captivating atmosphere and mesmerizing soundtrack to the intricately designed environments. The game radiates with boundless creativity and genuine passion. It's disheartening, however, that Tekken 5 essentially ushered in a soft reboot for the franchise, ultimately shaping it into the form we witness today with Tekken 7. As a devoted fan, I yearn for another installment in the Tekken series or perhaps a new fighting game altogether that mirrors the distinctive style and flair of Tekken 4. Despite not clinching the title of the best Tekken game, Tekken 4 remains an unparalleled, one-of-a-kind experiment within the franchise. Its uniqueness has etched a lasting memory, making it a truly unforgettable experience for any avid fighting game enthusiast. Here's to hoping for the arrival of Tekken 8 or a new fighting game that echoes the remarkable style and spirit of Tekken 4.

Upon my initial playthrough of Batman: Arkham Asylum, I believed it to be good but not exceptional. How mistaken I was! This game transcends greatness; it stands as a masterpiece. Considering that Rocksteady had only previously developed Urban Chaos: Riot Response, marking this as their second game, it's remarkable how they transformed from an obscure studio with only an FPS in their portfolio to an industry powerhouse. Batman: Arkham Asylum not only solidified their reputation but also paved the way for two sequels, Batman: Arkham City and Batman: Arkham Knight, along with a prequel, Batman: Arkham Origins, crafted by Warner Bros. Montreal under Rocksteady's endorsement. In essence, this game truly immerses you in the role of an orphan hunting down the infamous Birthday Clown, exemplifying Rocksteady's evolution into gaming royalty.
