For me though, Arkham City took all of that and gave me what Arkham was missing, the ability to feel like the Bat out on patrol in the streets of Gotham. The plot, voice cast, and visuals were all spot on and it was close to the perfect Batman game. There’s no denying that Arkham Asylum was a monumental moment in gaming that innovated in a number of ways, probably most notably in the way it handled combat. Batman: Arkham City - Blake Morse, Can we trust him? Source: WB Games Streets of Desolation could probably be considered to be one of the best musical tracks on any NES game ever and the rest of the soundtrack was nothing to sneeze at either.īatman may have gone on to have incredibly complicated and fun games across the decades that followed, but for me, nothing quite matches the fun and simplicity of Batman on the NES. That said when the stage music hit in this game, none of that mattered. In fact, their limitations made careful spacing out of their use mandatory.

However, one of the better Batman titles I've played, one that examined the Batman's role as Gotham's hero and planted the seeds of doubt on the Wayne family legacy.
