The caped crusader is back to champion super hero videogames again in Batman: Arkham City.

Its safe to say, its not a very nice place to be.

Batem up

Gameplay is very similar, and in some ways identical, toArkham Asylum.

The simple controls make for an enjoyable scrapping system, with dodging and counters being as important as always.

Add into this the much more large scale environment, and the scope for being Batman is increased tenfold.

Other elements of the original also return, including the detective mode.

This shows up on the map, making it easy to come back later and grab your reward.

This is essential for finding one of the more elusive Riddler trophies strewn about the city prison.

The aforementioned waypoints also show up as bat signals too, which is a cool touch.

Dont waste time thinking about it.
