Batman: Arkham City may not be as much of a pleasant surprise as Rocksteady's first superhero classic, but it's a huge and detailed adventure in its own right,

Batman: Arkham Asylum was something of a revelation when it released in 2009. Until that time, games based on comic books had a history of being mediocre at best, but Rocksteady took a beloved superhero and let that love influence the development from beginning to end.
