It seems like the crime levels in Gotham are constantly on the rise so in order to keep the indigenous population safe, Gotham officials decide to seal off a large chunk of the city and throw every inmate, petty criminal and gang leader in there-not exactly the best plan in the world, right? If you remember how wonderfully inhospitable Arkham Asylum was, then Arkham City will seem downright imposing.
With an enormous and sprawling playground, exhilarating combat, outstanding freedom of movement and an engrossing narrative, Batman Arkham City stakes its claim as one of the best action/adventure games of this generation, as you’ll be bewitched during your stay in Arkham City and desperate to come back once you leave it. A little over a month later, Batman soars and grapples his way to the PC with every ounce of his swagger intact, as this latest version of Arkham City turns out to be every bit as stunning and unforgettable as it was on consoles.
Batman: Arkham City was a watershed experience when it arrived on consoles back in October, as Rocksteady’s inaugural entry into the open-world genre left a huge impact on those who were fortunate enough to get wrapped up in Batman’s perilous excursion into Arkham City.
