Arkham City is better than all the other Arkham Games (although I like Asylum and Knight) and better than Spider-man. I think Spider-man was a blast but it did nothing new, it was just prettier and the writing was just meh. I think if you read a lot of comic books especially weekly readers it is nothing that hasn't been done before and better. I need more from a next-gen Spiderman than Spiderman 2 but prettier to claim it dethroned Arkham let alone the infamous games which were funner and more interesting to me.
