I was thinking of a great title for this review, but then I just couldn't think of one, so I think this fits the bill. The collector's edition stuff and DLC that you get are AWESOME, and then you get to the game itself. This game is worth WAY more than $60. The story is unbelievable, mesmerizing, epic, and then all the extra content is just plain fun. To quote the great Ra's Al Ghul (Liam Neeson) "scrambling over the rooftops of Gotham" is the most fun thing you can possibly do in a video game created this year. It may not sound all that exciting, but trust me, it is! Gliding over Arkham City undetected, and then swooping in for the KO is super fun and satisfying. This game is the best game ever, and you need a copy of it RIGHT NOW! You'll spend hours and hours having fun being Batman. You feel like Batman way more than Arkham Asylum, and that is a great feeling.
This is the best video game so far !!! I absolutely love this game. It is so addicting, awesome, and fun ! The graphics are some of the best I have ever seen, they are so detailed and cool. They are one of the things that immerse you into the game. The combat is fluid and fun, and very fast. The stealth parts are awesome and really make you feel like a stealthy predator. Catwoman is an amazing character, she is completely different from batman. They both have their own moves and attacks, gadgets, way of moving around arkham city, etc etc. The game is harder than arkham asylum, but that is part of what it makes it fun. It gives you a challenge, and the challenge is actually fun. There are tons of riddler stuff, 12 side missions, respawning bad guys, freeroaming, upgrades and gadgets to buy, A.R. training to complete, challenge maps to play, new game plus mode, etc etc. So this game has an immense amount of replay value. You will never get bored with this game. Now, on to the collector's edition. The artbook is pretty cool, but I would recommend buying a case/holder or whatever for the game. The dark knight returns skin and penguin's iceberg lounge challenge map are awesome. The statue is highly detailed and really really cool. The gotham knight movie and digital album are also great extras. Anyway, GET THIS GAME BEFORE ANYTHING, EVEN SKYRIM OR SOMETHING. You will never forgive yourself for a really really long time if you don't get this game. Try to get the collector's edition if you can, it is even better.

This game is amazing in my opinion. It's fun, the graphics are great, the story line is very well done, and has a lot of replay value if you have different tactics for the game.
