An improvement over it's predecessor in gameplay, in story not so much.
This is the game I've been waiting for all year. Batman Arkham Asylum was one of the best games I've ever played (maybe THE best), and now the sequel is here for my pleasure. Arkham City has it all, lots of villains, ... Read Full Review

Free-roaming doesn't work in a Batman game. Please Rocksteady go back to Arkham Asylum formula.
Arkham Asylum was a suprise hit coming from one of the lesser know devs and is one of the best games of this gen. So much was expected of the sequel yet it doesnt live up to the highs of AA and and the main problem is th... Read Full Review

With a prison the size of a city, what could possibly go wrong? Everything.
In 2009, developer Rocksteady disproved a myth commonly believed by the video game community: Batman will never make a great game. They did this by releasing the critically acclaimed Arkham Asylum. Terrific combat, ex... Read Full Review

Must Buy Game. Contender for Game of The Year

Arkham City stands out alone as a awesome Batman game, but also a fantastic follow up from 2009's Batman: Arkham Asylum
In my original review of Arkham Asylum back in 2009 I made comment on how much attention had been placed onto Batman in the past decade. With said decade well and truly over, it's fair to say by two hit blockbuster movie... Read Full Review

This game is good but no where near as good as it is being reviewed. It is too short, and you fight the same thug 1000x
