Batman: Arkham City (2011 Video Game)
10/10
Possibly one of, if not the best video games ever made
2 July 2015
Where to start? This game re-invented what it would actually feel like to be the batman. After arkham asylum came out I was amazed at rocksteadys ability to make a match if not trump its predecessor with arkham City. The scale of this game is huge,( not as huge as Arkham Knight but still huge ) the storyline is so intriguing and complex it weaves its way into your brain like a centipede. But the thing that won me over and made this game was its boss fights. No other game has built scenes up and then make you control your character and beat the main oppressor like this one has. Mark Hamil really shines as the clown prince of crime and delivers a sinister, terrifying version of a batman favorite, the joker. But maybe just as good was the voice talent of batman, Kevin Conroy who also voices batman in 'the animated series' and the 'justice league'. I think this game really delves into the relationship of batman and the joker, and how there really can't be one without the other. The ending had me speechless and amazed and the final line delivered by Conroy is ironic and brilliant. With the addition of the amazing boss fight with Mr Freeze this game is nothing short of perfect and a personal favorite of many superhero fans. It deserves a 10.
