Batman Arkham City

Hello Again the cowl crusaders of the internet!

Today I plan on discussing Batman Arkham City.

The swan song for Mark Hamil as the Joker is by far the most emotionally satisfying of all of his performances. This game is out of this world.

The ability to travel around a portion of Gotham in open world to an extent is viably great. The folks at Rocksteady have really outdone themselves with the AI of the gangers across the city. The story however is short. The main storyline can be completed in one sitting if you are determined enough. I finished it in two afternoons at about 3 hours a piece. If you follow every side-quest it does allow for alot more grinding.

Making this installment all in all a good experience is the fact that after you have completed the storyline you can continue to complete side-quests and restart a plus mode to replay a harder version of the game. The challenge maps are great to increase re-playability.

The Catwoman DLC included in a new copy of the game is great. it adds four main story points to the game. However i feel that the new Nightwing DLC is worthless.Sold as a additional storyling it is only a few challenge maps and skins, a waste of 6.99.

Game rating
5 out of 5 Gonzos

DLC
3 of 5 Gonzos (NIGHTWING is a screwjob)

Be well
Ryan
