This game was the almost perfect finale. It's still a very satisfying conclusion to the Arkham series but a few things should've been done better really. Such as the batmobile which I really wish wasn't shoved down your throat every 5 minutes but the writing and characters are superb. This game looks phenomenal and the attention to detail is astonishing. The combat is the best combat is perhaps any game ever. If you take out the stupid stealth tank sections then this game becomes infinity better and possibly the best Arkham game if it's replaced by something good. Most of the side missions are great but when they're bad they're absolutely terrible and so disappointing yet the good ones are incredible. One last point, the ending section where it's like a horror FPS is masterful and so well done. This game is the definitive Batman expierence and I would've given it 5/5 had it not had woeful boss fight, obsession with the batmobile and a couple of narrative issues. But overall I love this game.
Called the worst in the Arkham series by many. I'd say 'least best' as it's still a fantastic game but not quite on the level of the other for me. Still superb though as it really makes you feel as though it's a younger version of the Arkham Batman and it never makes you question that as you can tell he's still learning with how aggressive he is. Also the boss fights kick ass especially the Deathstroke one

Best superhero game ever made bar none. Took what the first one did well and expanded upon it big time. Possibly the best game sequel ever made too. Love it with a passion. It's side missions are the best in the series as is the story itself. Every villain in this game is done well and the boss fights are incredible. The whole atmosphere of this game is something that I feel goes under the radar big time as well. The side missions are another superb element, mainly the Hush one which is just great, the little twist at the end of it is so good.
Incredible game that set the premise for the Arkham series. To some degree this game helped turn me into a Batman fan. Not the best in the series imo but an absolute masterpiece non the less. Really revolutionized the superhero gaming genre as we know it. I dislike the titan stuff so much yet love the Scarecrow encounters and other horror elements so much as they are done so damn well. Speaking of horror the atmosphere that this game has is second to none, probably my favourite atmosphere in any game ever. The boss fights (disregarding the Scarecrow ones) are pretty meh. Even if you aren't into superhero stuff I guarantee you'll enjoy this game
