Holy Arkham City, Batman!
I can't wait, on the 18th one of the games I have been waiting for all year is coming out; "Batman: Arkham City". The sequel to what I believe is one of the greatest super hero games ever made, "Arkham City" promises to be larger, longer and crazier than the original.
But what I'm most excited about is the fact that you get to play as other heroes on challenge maps and side missions. You get the heroes through pre order offers and DLC, Catwoman is a DLC for when you buy the game and has a few side mission incorporated into the story mode of the game. If you pre order the game from Best Buy, you receive Tim Drake also known as Robin to be used in the challenge maps and in a few months they will be releasing the man who started his crime fighting career as the original Robin; Dick Grayson now known as Nightwing.
I was a huge comic book geek in high school and college, while never a huge Batman fan, three of my favorite comic books were "Robin" , "Catwoman" and "Nightwing". So the chance to play as them in this game is one of the most appealing aspect of the game for me, it's been stated in a few articles on line that they have their own moves and weapons and not just some skin for the main character which should extend the playability of the game.
The other big plus that I'm looking forward to is more Riddler
challenges, this time instead of
just having the challenges with no real rewards, this time you have to complete
challenges to save some people from traps that mean certain death if not
rescued.
Bigger levels, more playable character and longer story mode, this game looks like it will up to and surpass
the legacy set forth by the first game.
Holy time wasters Batman, I don't think I'll be leaving my house for a month after
getting this.
