Batman: Arkham Asylum is one of my favourite games this generation. It blended stealth and ferocious aggression with the best hand-to-hand combat system I’ve ever played in a game. I love Batman in general but Arkham Asylum wasn’t just a great depiction of the vigilante detective, it was a great game.
You could say I was a little excited about the upcoming release of Batman: Arkham City. The stunning washed out promotional shots and the villain lists are enough to make me want to be signed into Gotham’s psychiatric care system already. So, I’m looking forward to hearing what comes out of GAMEfest next week, when Warner Bros. show off Arkham City as a playable experience in the UK for the first time.
They’re also taking Lord of the Rings: War in the North, which I know a lot of you will be excited to see, and the new Lego: Harry Potter Years 5-7 and Happy Feet 2 titles. For me, though, GAMEfest would be all about Arkham City.

I am really looking forward to this. Also LOTR.

Batman over LotR? No way, dude.

Batman > Frodo

But not Gandalf or Aragorn.
Hell, Boromir would probably kick Batman’s ass.

Batman beat superman (The Dark Knight Returns – Frank Miller), I’m pretty sure he could take a wizard, old guy or, a man with a weak mind..

LOTR, Lego Harry Potter, and of course, Arkham City have my attention.
Might go for Potter first though- Arkham Asylum is yet another entry on ‘ridiculously long list of games I own but have not yet completed.’
