Batman: Arkham City - Summary

By Jeff Conroy


A year where gamers rejoice, 2011, the most anticipated year of the decade, with the plenty of releases. The trailer which left many gamers awestruck a few months back, the trailer which proved once again, that this year would be spectacular for gamers, the trailer for the game Batman: Arkham City, the successor for the previous batman game, Arkham Asylum.

The story in Arkham City, occurs a year later after Arkham Asylum . Sharp, the warden of Arkham Asylum whom you all may know is nominated Mayor as he claimed to have stopped the Joker's scheme to take over the Asylum. Not being able to control the barbaric criminals of Asylum, he was forced to shut down the facility and convert a large area of land in the slums of Gotham into a 'Arkham City' a huge open air prison. The prisoners there were let to roam free and do as they please unless they tried to escape, with Hugo Strange being in charge to monitor the facility. Meanwhile, our all time favorite villain, Joker returns once again, trying to find the antidote to his disease.

Not to mention, the developers have mentioned a new playable character, catwoman, the mischievous girl who likes robbing her targets, who we got to see in the trailer with Two-Face. We have been assured by the developers that we will have a blast trying out her new combos and the fighting system. But, some people don't like the fact that a BATMAN game will have some parts stolen by a person who is not batman. Understanding this, the developers have given the option whether the players want to play cat woman or not, and have also mentioned that catwoman only has a role of 10 % in the entire game. But I can tell you this, there is no reason to NOT try her out.

The villains in the game have also been well made and seem perfectly rendered. The script and voices alike, both match perfectly with the batman series we used to watch on TV before. The fights are filled with great combat mini games and take downs alike. Some battles may require using some logical thinking like blowing up walls, turning off electricity generators and all that, but the pleasure you get after finishing a huge villain or boss is unbeatable. The game has never been so interactive during fights ever before. You can pick up anything or use anything against anyone, literally. You can use explosive gel to blow up things with your enemy; you can glide from a building, break glasses and kick the hell out of them.

Whatever the outcome, you can be sure to expect a great story line, a great game, and a great day for you to enjoy it. This game is highly recommended for the people who love action and the game that dwells with mystery, which our famous detective Batman, will help you solve.
