Later this week one of the best reviewed games of the year will be released on an expectant public, desperate for more time with their favourite bat-themed vigilante. You can fight as Catwoman, Robin, Nightwing and multiple costumes of Batman himself in a campaign that apparently stretches over around 26 hours (including side missions etc.) Bats is voiced again by Kevin Conroy (The One True Bat?) with villains including: Dr Hugo Strange, The Penguin, The Mad Hatter, Mr Freeze, Two-Face and many, many others. All, of course, managed by The Joker, played expertly by Mark Hamill. Pre-release reviews are coming back nigh-on perfect which is pretty exciting indeed! Check out this cool release trailer and make sure to get your hands on it later this week!

Synopsis

Batman: Arkham City builds upon the intense, atmospheric foundation of Batman: Arkham Asylum, sending players soaring into Arkham City, the new maximum security home for all of Gotham City’s thugs, gangsters and insane criminal masterminds.

Set inside the heavily fortified walls of a sprawling district in the heart of Gotham City, this highly anticipated sequel introduces a brand-new story that draws together a new all-star cast of classic characters and murderous villains from the Batman universe, as well as a vast range of new and enhanced gameplay features to deliver the ultimate experience as the Dark Knight.

    Hamill back as the Joker?! Can we say HELLZ YEAH! Was thinking of finally getting into HALO, but that can wait, now. And had Azrael entered into this, it would have been far grimmer, imho. And likely easier, seeing how he wasn’t all that b’moyled when left in a kill or be killed scenario. Would be a plate of roasted Pengi with Joker jam on the side. Now what kind of wine would be appropriate, upon ruminating . . .
