- Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2013Platform: Xbox 360Verified PurchaseI played Batman: Arkham City 2 years ago shortly after it came out by renting it and enjoyed it very much. Recently I decided to purchase this to get to play it again and try the extra content. Much of my rating comes from a frugal gamer's perspective of buying the GOTY edition on sale for $15.
First off, for those of you who have not played any of the Batman: Arkham titles, this game's story is amazing and standalone enough to where you can get the idea of what happened in Arkham Asylum (the first title) even if you did not previously play it. For those who did play Arkham Asylum, this game is on a much larger scale, giving access to a wider play area than its predecessor. There is a bigger representation of central characters and villains, such as Catwoman, Two-Face, Penguin, and many others. In addition, there are numerous side missions that can be accessed throughout the game that help add to the enjoyment value of the game, give you bonus abilities, and interact with other villains not part of the main story. Another plus is a bigger role of the Riddler in this game, who has hostages in elaborate death traps that he provides locations to after completing enough riddles so you can attempt to solve the rooms and save the hostages.
Gameplay wise, the combat and predator systems are simple, yet challenging. Most encounters involve either unarmed "beat-em up" combat using a variety of attacks, counters, gadgets and special abilities against large numbers of inmates, or sneak-around takedowns of armed thugs, allowing you to do things like jump through glass, out of vents, around corners, etc. to surprise and take down the bad guys in a silent or high profile manner, even allowing you to use gadgets to harass, frighten, distract or knock them out. Inmates respond to your actions, sometimes to the point of becoming completely terrified. Paired with using various gadgets to solve puzzles, analyze crime scenes, and traverse through the city, it definitely feels like playing Batman the entire time you are playing the game.
The extra content is easily accessed by putting Disc 2 in the drive and installing everything. This gives you access to:
- Catwoman missions: Several times during the main story, you will switch over to controlling Catwoman for her part in the story. After the main story is over, you are able to switch between her and Batman freely.
- Harley Quinn's Revenge: A 30-60 minute extension of the story that allows you to play as Robin for a majority of the time.
- Extra challenge maps: More predator and combat challenges in places like Wayne Manor, the Batcave, Joker's Funhouse (which is timed and an endurance map), and even a side-scrolling combat challenge on a train.
- Extra costumes: more novelty, but there if you want to switch up Batman's appearance (after beating the game once). Others are available for other characters.
- Extra playable characters in challenge mode: You get access to Catwoman, Robin, and Nightwing in the "Riddler's Revenge" challenge maps. Each one has unique gadgets and abilities to let you mix up your approaches to individual challenge maps.
Overall, from the perspective of a budget gamer, this game is very worth buying at $15-$20. It provides a long and epic story line with updated yet very well portrayed versions of staple Batman characters. The systems for taking on thugs definitely pulls off having a Batman feel which is enhanced by the gadgets you use, and the extra content will add on several hours of gameplay. I cannot say for those who buy games with financial scrutiny that it would have been worth paying $60 at release and then buying the DLC separately, but for this price, it is a must-buy for anyone who enjoys action/adventure games and is a Batman fan.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2012Platform: Xbox 360Verified PurchaseI really do love this game though I find certain parts unnecessarily hard. I am not a hardcore gamer, but I'm not really a casual gamer either. If a certain part is starting to frustrate me I tend to stop and come back to it the next day, but usually I try to finish a game I am playing before moving on to the next one. With Arkham Asylum I really had trouble with the first part of the game, getting down the fighting dynamics was a bit challenging for me. But, once I started playing more, and of course upgrading, things started to flow. There was a gliche where, when I got to %44 I lost my game save. I had to start over from the beginning (but I got to redo missed opportunities so in a way it wasn't a total waste) but that proves how fun the game is. I was heartbroken of course, but I did it. I ended up beating the game, though there were some achievements I wasn't able to get. Mainly in the challenges. But the game made me eager to play Arkham City, which is a bit more ambitious than the first with a wider learning curve (in my opinion). the things that were hard in the first game, and thusly made me proud when I found the trick/way to beat those hard parts, and of course honing that skill, seem to be gone in this game. Of course many of the weapons/skills are the same here, but the fighting isn't as fun to me as it was in the original. I, of course, would pick fights in certain parts of the game, with the confidence and arrogance afforded me after just beating the first game (I was a later starter with the first game, as I got it as a gift for christmas, but because I found the fighting dynamics hard at first, I started playing a few other games before I got back to it)However I found myself getting my ass kicked a lot easier, the controls didn't feel as tight as it did in the first game. This game usually gets a score of 10 out of 10 by most gaming magazines, but I'd have to give it a 9 or 9.5 if for no other reasons than they took out a lot of the stuff I liked about the fighting from the first game and reinvented it for this one. The catwoman missions (which came free with the game, so I do not understand why they'd give me a secret code for it unless it's so my friends who came over would have to pay if they wanted to play the game on their gamertag)are a bit more complicated/harder than they need to be. They definitely made a successful attempt at making catwomans moves different than batman's. they are more elegant, and sometimes a bit sexy (of course I probably need to get out more lol. but next gen games are using their polygons well I must say). Unfortunately you spend most of the game trying to upgrade batman, that you tend to leave catwoman out, and so she's not as powerful as batman sometimes. This may just be psychological but it seems when I use the controller to controll batman I can feel the power/muscle behind his moves. And while I play as catwoman it seems that I move more freely as if making her do her moves doesn't take as much energy. Then again catwoman's hits are not as power driven as Batman's so it feels more acrobatic. I do find the riddler related challenges more annoying than fun. And finding the tropies are a bit overwhelming. (I'm still playing so I have a long way to go to collecting everything). I thought it was a pain in the ass to get them all in the first game, now with a larger free roaming area to look in I'm actually worried I'll never find them all (without using a guide). I have not played the Harley storyline (as I am not totally done with the main story and didn't want anything to spoil it for me, as it states when you first click on the button...that there are spoilers). I do love the concept of releasing a game with all of it's downloadable content. I hate that everything now seems to be download only or streaming (as with music and movies) I'm very old school, I love owning the physical game. Even if I beat the game and get %100 on the achievements, I may want to go back and replay a section sometime, and if you only have your game in the cloud, you may end up redownloading it just to play it. Besides, if anything happens to the cloud infrastructure, I'll still have my game, and if for some reason I can't afford to go online, I'll still have my game. Plus, as much as games cost, when I download them I feel like I didn't really buy anything. at least with a game disc I feel as if I got something for my money. So I love the concept behind this game, and other "complete collections" versions of games. As far as superhero games go, my favorite ones were Spider-man 2 and 3 and Ultimate spider-man, this game actually won my heart pretty quickly because just as the spider-man games captured what it's like to BE spider-man this game and it's predecessor do the same for Batman. Because I am a bigger Spider-man fan than I am a Batman fan (though it's a close call) I would tend to say this comes in a close second, but it doesn't matter because you're going to have fun playing it just the same. I can't imagine anyone who enjoys comic books/superheroes or just clever puzzles and excellent storytelling not liking this game. It has a few annoying aspects, but not enough to really damage the overall asthetic, then again most games that some consider perfect still has a flaw or two. This game will win you over though, whether you played the first one or not.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buen juego.
Platform: Xbox 360Verified PurchaseNo he jugado las entregas anteriores de Batman, sin embargo, este juego tiene suficiente contenido para disfrutar durante horas. Además de la historia principal, hay misiones secundarias, y jugar con distintos personajes en un modo de juego. Si te gusta Batman, te va encantar este juego.
