Top 10 On Current-Gen: Batman Arkham City

Seeing how PS4 and Xbox One will be here pretty soon (the release date for both consoles is speculated between October and December this year) I've decided to write down a list of ten games you must play on current-gen, before you move on to the next one.

So let's start with number 10: Batman Arkham City


Before Batman Arkham Asylum was released many doubted it was possible to make a good super hero game. No need to remind anyone of that abomination called Superman 64 (Superman: The New Adventures) is there? Then there are a few Spiderman games. I admit, there were one or two good among those, but the rest were all still generic. And then came Batman Arkham Asylum...

The rest is history, It changed the way people though about combat, stealth and most importantly FEAR. That Batman game showed us we can be the one's making others fear us in a video game, not the other way around. It was a great piece of work and there were even doubts if they could make a decent good enough to fill those shoes. And they did..

They gave the world Batman Arkham City. An upgrade over the previous game that features the whole city for you to enjoy it and strike fear in the hearts of criminals. No need to tell you much, if you've played it you know what it is, it's GTA but your character is a super hero with a lot of gadgets and fighting for the good guys. Of course, the mechanic of the game is much more than any GTA, it was special tailored for this game and is much more detailed.

Well, that's it, I won't talk too much, no spoilers, just a recommendation, go play Batman Arkham City (and Arkham Asylum while you're at it) and enjoy the best of current gen.

Number 9 coming soon..
