    O jogo pegou tudo do primeiro título e melhorou em nível avassalador. Ainda não temos um título equivalente para outros heróis no mundo dos games.

    Fica o aviso para jogarem o jogo até zerar, sem parar por muitos dias, os controles são muito bons mas lembrar de tudo depois de um tempo é muito sofrível.

    Arkham City is a good game. With how fun zipping through the world, punching a whole room of dudes and preying on them from the dark is, it's easy to forgive the game's empty map, lack-luster stealth mechanics and forgettable story. Again - it's good

    An all time classic.
    Improves in every way to its predecessor . Best Superhero game yet.
    Full of content. It has 2 games worth of villains and boss fights.
    Highly recommended.

    Наполненная персонажами, отсылками и контентом игра с приятной боевой механикой, ложкой дёгтя в которой становятся однообразный геймплей, пресный сюжет и раздражающие механики.

    Поэтому, при крайне положительных, на момент написания обзора, оценках игры - не буду рекомендовать её для баланса.

    I think after Arkham asylum it's improved and much more interesting, because in this game you have whole map of Arkham city in your hands. Very diverse story which is very interesting and new gadgets.

    Keeping aside the problems that this pc version had and valuing the game itself, the truth is a great game, mandatory for batman fans. Good story, good technical section, definitely one of the best super hero games. Recommended.

    Перед нами Аркхем Асайлум, в значно більшому світі, з кращою картинкою, збалансованішою бойовою системою, і ще кращим та цікавішим сюжетом. 9!

    This is one of my favorite games of all time. I started playing this and Arkham Asylum, knowing very little about Batman and i fell in love with this character as well as the world itself.

I started playing this and Arkham Asylum, knowing very little about Batman and i fell in love with this character as well as the world itself.

    The gameplay is extremely fun to play, easy to learn and hard to master, the exact type of gameplay i love. You feel like a badass, fighting large groups of enemies, both in the combat and predator sections. Traveling around the world, gliding, and using the grappling hook is very satisfying. The sound and graphics hold up very well.

    The world is rich, engaging and full of little details. It is clear that a lot of care and effort were put into this game. The characters are interesting, with superb voice acting especially from Kavin Konroy's Batman and Mark Hammil's joker. The plot is full of surprises and there is a lot of content to enjoy.

    From what i understand there where a couple of controversies surrounding this game upon launch. Things that include optimization problems and unnecessary DLCs. However, the game is easy to run well today, and you can get the GOTY edition in order to receive all of the DLC's.

    This game is fantastic and I cannot recommend it enough.    … Expand

    All the mechanics were recycled from Arkham Asylum. Only a few innovations on that area. However, the story of Arkham City is the best of the whole franchise.

    Я жалею, что познакомился с этой серией очень поздно, великие игры. Доктор Фриз - лучший босс в истории видеоигр(ну по моему мнению), так как файт с ним представлен в виде некой головоломки с самообучаемостью босса, подобного я не видел.Я жалею, что познакомился с этой серией очень поздно, великие игры.

    On top of that, the detective parts give enough diversity to the gameplay, so it is not just another "punch your way through" video-game.    … Expand

    Gutes Batman Spiel mit einem coolen Kampfsystem. Die Story ist auch großartig. Lediglich die Fortbewegung in Arkham City kann etwas anstrengend werden.

    Even taking into account the parameters of the games in 2018 this 2012 game is awesome.
    Batman is one of my favorite DC characters, not so much for the character itself, but much more for the dark universe and for the many incredible arch-enemies that he has.

    The game have a mad, chaotic and dark story, full of villains and with interesting side quests. The gameplay is intense and diverse. You have a lot of fighting to do and each fight seems more challenging and rewarding them the previous one. And in between fighting there are moments where a direct approach most be avoided and you need to be stealthy and use your brain to stay alive, something that could be even more challenging and rewarding them the fight itself.
    You have a lot of side quests to do, and things to collect and some of them are really challenging to get. And also the awesome possibility to play has Catwoman, and Robin (in a post story content included on the GOTY edition).

    The game mechanic are intuitive, and the progress is rewarding. Each level you unlock more fighting moves or more gadgets to improve the possibility of success.

    Visually the game his very good for a 2012 standards. Enemy models are diversified and well constructed, in a fight it is frequent to appear a diverse number of models of enemies. But where the game graphics really shine are in the "bosses". Joker its the most impressive one, the facial details and animations are superb.

    Overall the game is fantastic, you can easily spend more them 20 hours to explore all the quests and side quests available.

    Here is small YouTube vide with the first minutes of the gameplay if you wanna check it out: https://youtu.be/OglxVgSwf-g    … Expand

    Though the ending is surprising, in a way, the story isn't the main focus of Batman: Arkham City. Exploring and adventuring come first, you have so much to do that you that the hours just slip by you. Yes, the boss fights are probably too easy, the narrative too short, the framerate goes down on occasion and not all the players will appreciate searching through every nook and cranny to find trophies. But it's all up to you and Arkham City offers a variety that not a lot of new games have nowadays.

    The developers should be proud for Arkham City and its precise portrayal of Gotham's mood- at least accordingly to recent films and comic books. A gothic atmosphere is undoubtedly dominant, as the majestic architecture of neoclassical buildings shadows the industrialization and the bright lights of a contemporary metropolis.

    It's hard to create an extraordinary game but to recognize it is quite simple. Arkham City with its cinematic appearance towers high above the rest with its production values. [Dec 2011]
