Hello Gamers!
Today’s blog will be about Batman: Arkham City
This game was Rocksteady’s
second Batman game, and all I have to say is: Bravo Rocksteady! Way too knock
it out of the park!
This game was so much better than Asylum. I’m not saying
that Asylum was bad, heck there’s a reason I did it first, and no I’m just
saying that this one really dropped my jaw.
This game was even more jam packed with characters, an even
BIGGER map than the first, and many more plots involved.
Anyways Batman is back
in action and so am I!
First off, as I hate to
dwell on the negatives, I shall start with things they did right.
The grappler now works,
thanks for that, Rocksteady. Without this, we’d all fall asleep traversing the
large “Old Gotham” map you’ve given us.
Now onto the bad.
First: Why, is that in
supposedly five years after asylum Batman looks and fights like it’s been
twenty?
The game’s state that
it’s about five years between Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, yet Bruce ages at
a much quicker rate. It’s good he found a Lazarus pit when he did, otherwise he’d
be both dead of poison and dead of old age.
Secondly, how was it
possible for the citizens under the leadership of Hugo Strange able to
construct a huge ring of solid wall around old Gotham to surround the prisoners
in?
Thirdly, how did they
transport all of the citizens into Arkham City? Besides a huge bus, that I’d
doubt would even make it there…able to well…get them there?
Fourthly, have swat or “Tiger”
guards there, besides the “Psychological Profiling on the hour” stuff strange
was into… for some weird reason, I mean, just take the prisoners you really want and leave the rest alone, it
would cost much less.
There is a point where
you (Batman) discover that Strange’s been giving weapons to Joker’s crew, to
help them gain turf… so my question is: Wouldn’t it have been easier to just
weaken the party you don’t want in control… or give Joker a helicopter while
you’re at it? Or just give Joker rockets to launch at the enemy?
I suppose you wouldn't want
to because of Joker’s unstable attitude but…seriously!
And now I’d just like a
note, aside from the critique. I’m now going
to probably critique you on how you say Ras Al Ghul, but because I can’t put it
any better way, I’ll let her daughter say it for me
Take it away Talia!
Have you watched it?
Awesome, so now we can wrap up the critique.
While I’m sure there
are many more things to discuss, if I did I’d never be done as City had a City
amount of mistakes, so I’ll leave it at that

I'll be looking forward to the next review of the new game!
