I remember some guy who kept trolling SW and had "dog" in his name, mr SaintDogWalrus :P You're probably not him though.

Question: If I didn't like Arkham Asylum, would I like Arkham City?

It wasn't the story or anything that I didn't like in AA, it was just the simplistic combat system.

SS is vastly superior, actually. I love Batman and the Arkham games, but SS is just completely amazing imo; can't put it down.

I reckon that GTAIV might be on a league on its own compared to Saint's Row 2...yet i would never touch GTAIV while i love Saint's Row 2.

Haven't finished it, but so far Batman AC is better, I'm getting annoyed with all this "side" nonsense that brings nothing to the game. This will probably beat Wind Waker for extending game time with annoying useless stuff. :x

But we all know that McShea is a dumbass as yesterdays thread showed (it even had pics as proof ;)). If anything it was at least 8.5.

What? Seriously? Are you SERIOUSLY gonna compare those two and make ZELDA seem like the inferior game? Lol, either you're a fanboy, or you have a peanut sized brain.

Right, because Batman is only storyline... oh wait, its 80% side missions too. Every riddler trophy, every challenge or catwoman mission... all side missions.

Arkham City features the goddamn Batman.

Skyward Sword features some autistic elf who's probably hiding in the closet, if you know what I mean.

Arkham City by far.

Having played both, i would say Batman Arkham City by a lonnnnnnnng shot. Zelda games are stuck in the past in terms of their design, and Nintendo definitely needs better HCI consultants, their user interfaces suck.

Let's see... depends on what you're looking for in a game:

For story, I'd say SS

For gameplay, I'd say AC.

Overall, I'd say AC but that's just me.

While I love both games, I find AC combat a bit repetitive, and almost the equivalent of a button masher at points, but in all honesty I find the two games too different to be compared.

Arkham City is like, a thousand bajillion times better.

Better combat, better world, better graphics, better story, better everything really.

It was basically a 10 hour long super tribute to everything Batman.

AA is better than SS, so I imagine AC will be better than it too (and probably AA).

You just killed your own arguement. SS has 30+ hours on the first run through and possibly 50+ on your second if you'd like to attempt 100% WTF? 10 hours? I haven't gotten AC yet, but AA was a 14 hours long game for me, WITHOUT getting 100%. I'll be doing that soon before I get AC.

Even if AC wasn't better, it still would be because you don't need to use lame ass motion controls.

Playtime is not always the winning factor. The first 10 hours of SS are rather boring.

So length determines the quality of a game? I guess FF13 is one of the best games I've ever played because it took me 45 hours to finish.

I'm sure most people would prefer a short amazing game rather than a long boring one.
