Batman, you finally have a good game.
If you are sick and tired of horrible licensed games, (looking at you, Spiderman) than you have found your salvation! Deny anyone who doubts this game or Batman. Any hero who can kick that much butt without the need of superpowers is obviously awesome. Gameplay is so good that it is the only thing needed to give this a 10. The only flaw is that the integration of all your gadgets means that the combat controls can be rather complicated unless you have a photographic memory. However, once you find the combination of quickfire gadgets that fit your fighting style, this minor flaw is easy to ignore. Side jobs are varied and require exploring the amazing looking super prison. From hunting down a vicious serial killer to destroying canisters of super-steroids, from hunting a mysterious watcher to battling hypnotized henchman while falling down the Rabbit Hole, there is never a lack of things to do. Story is amazing and the constant twists and turns never have you predicting the outcome and keeps you guessing. Graphics are absolutely beautiful and I am suprised the developers did not use all the development time polishing the city. From the filthy streets of Arkham City to the burns on the bad end of Two-Face, graphics are beautiful. Sound is another highpoint of the game. Almost every gang of henchman has some sort of conversation about things like the weather, their bosses, or Batman, Catwoman, Robin, and Nightwing. (Depending on which DLC you have.) An amazing musical score compliments all this action. If you have been hesitant about this game because of all the hate mail, get it and ignore those haters!

Speechless!
Dude alright im so speechless after beating this I mean it was awesome one of the best games ever and im looking so forward to arkham origins which I will pre-order and buy at midnight but more about this title.
The campaign is great lasting about 20-21 hours for a casual gamer but for a completionist there is about 80-100 hours of gameplay but the campaign rules with ultimate twists and the graphics are nothing short of perfect. I wish I could spoil the game for you but theres no fun in that so definently try it out for yourself.

This is a great batman game its really cool there's tons of gadgets and high tech stuff lots of hand to hand combat just like you might expect. I watched all the batman movies like Batman begins and dark knight and dark knight rises and I thought those movies were so cool and I wanted a game that was about batman and I saw this and I thought wow that looks awesome well I got it I played it and I was like wow this is awesome its very fun im a little hung up though trying to figure out what im supposed to do in the game.All in all its a great game if not the best batman game ever.

The Best Game EVER!!!!!
One would think my review would be biased since I'm a huge batman fangirl but this game is the best game I every played. I had played Arkham Asylum and loved it but Arkham City had blow it out of the water. The game play is great, the story is compelling, and the graphics are over the top. Add that and the fact that the great Kevin Conroy and Mark Hammil returns to voice Batman and the Joker. No words can describe this game.

Words do not do it justice
Fantastic. Bottom line best game i have ever played. Compelling campaign, lots of side quests, voice acting was the best in video game history. They played the joker as well as the film Dark Knight. The closest comparison i could give would be assassins creed on steroids fuses with chuck Norris and. My only complaint is that your costume takes damage throughout campaign and by the end its pretty beat up. There is no way to erase this damage and the holes in my cape are some what annoying. :)
