Batman Arkham City



Batman returns to the consoles, after his exploits at Arkham Asylum, and this time the stakes are higher. Bruce Wayne will take on an absolute Who's Who list of bad guys, in a purpose-built high-security jail/mental asylum, right in the middle of Arkham City, courtesy of Mayor Quincy Sharp.

A serious game-of-the-year candidate, it is built on the solid foundations of its predecessor, with new and effective melee attacks, improvised bat-gadgets, impressive detective work, and an emphasis on stealth play, all making the game a hugely enjoyable experience. The villains include Joker, Two-Face, Catwoman, Dr. Hugo Strange, Calendar Man, and Solomon Grundy. In addition, Catwoman has been made a playable character, with her own heist-focused storyline that pops up at specific points in the game, with equally specific acrobatic-oriented combat moves.
