Batman: Arkham Knight


There is a lot to like in this 2015 Batman game - its fluid game mechanics, its spectacular depiction of Gotham City as you glide and swoop through the night sky - but this is the world of Batman as it appears in the Christopher Nolan movies - dark, depraved, full of serial killers, anarchy, torture, and mental illness - pretty heavy stuff which, combined with irritating cutscenes each time you die, make the gameplay unrewarding...but OCD gamers like me will enjoy achieving 100% Riddler trophies, militia drones, breakable objects, etc, after the depressing storylines have played out.

★★★☆☆
