With Batman Arkham City being such an amazing game its tough to decide where to begin with its praise. The graphics are amazing and much like Arkham Asylum but the story mode dives even deeper in the sequel. Every major batman villain plays a role in Arkham City from the usual suspects like Joker, Harley Quinn and Bane to new/old faces like penguin, Two-Face, Mr. Freeze, Ras-al-gul, Professor Strange, Poison Ivy, and many others. The freeflow style gameplay allows you to completely explore the map and find new side missions and riddles at every corner with hours of gameplay necessary to achieve the "Platinum Trophy". Along with the expansive story mode comes predator and battle missions like in Arkham Asylum where players can hone their skills by beating up on 50 enemies at once or go silent mode with predator levels. Amazing sequel to an amazing series im just waiting for the next installment!!!
What's great about it: Graphics, Freeflow Gameplay

This game is incredible and Black Ops doent hold a candle to it. I have been playing nothing but COD MW2 since it was released and looks like ill be playing this until Infinity Ward comes out with their next hit.
