Arkham City is pretty damn awesome. I've watched a mate complete it; nothing is worse than the original and the combat has only gotten better, plus the storyline is pretty damn good too. Well worth the buy. Only reason I don't have it yet is I haven't completed the original... oops.

The Arkham City reviews are amazingly positive. It's supposed to be like Arkham Asylum but much bigger and more sandboxy. One of the largest complaints was that there were too many gadgets. Really? When you have to complain about too much of something, the game must be good.

I played and finished Arkham Asylum last week, and I loved it. There were some minor niggles with the fov/camera work (batman takes up like 3/4th of the screen when you're not in combat or running) and the clumsy console movements, but other than that the game is pretty freaking super polished. The combat (like you guys said) is pretty amazing in its fluidity, the voice acting is top notch, they got the batman vibe down to a T and some stuff like the Scarecrow dreams and the "SHIT PC CRASH" moment you mentioned was orginal as fuck. I almost can't believe I waited so long to get and play it, but thanks to Pev I finally got around to it.

Other really tiny points of criticism: gimmick boss fights (can't win until you figure out a more or less random strategy, lot of the time), and not the game's fault but still: games for windows live login. Ugghh. But overall, the game is a great fit on PC and has been properly ported. Not like, say GTA IV.

Now I'm really really interested in Arkham City!

I absolutely love how freeflowing it is, you can attack anyone from any angle and accross both short and long ranges. It's really well coded and the animation never seems to skip a beat.

I agree, the final battle was a bit easy, but whatever. I still enjoyed it.

I plan on doing the challenges when I feel like it.

btw, for the non players, here's a pretty decent video of the Batman combat.

it's impressively varied

Did you feel the last boss was to easy? I thought it was.

The Challenge maps are worth the stuggle dude, try 'em out

I beat the game. Pretty good game, really... for all you peeps that haven't played it, keep an eye out for sales and pick it up when you can. It's worth it.

haha. And yea, I use detective mode all the time. I usually switch out of it for combat.. fighting skeletons is a bit much. But if you don't, you miss a ton of hidden crap.
