Almost Perfect! Almost!
Arkham City was almost a perfect sequel. Almost. The pros of the game are pretty extensively covered by most reviews. We got far more fluid combat, a bigger world to explore, more characters and villians to encounter, some fun alternate outfits but it falls short in some ways which most reviews skim over. Let's give those some more detail; - The third act of the story just falls apart & becomes amateur writing hour with the plot only progressing due to the most ridiculous & illogical of actions or rather lack of actions by key characters. There's also a couple of plotholes that start to creep in & grow. - The amount of side-missions & things to do seem great at first but after a few hours of gameplay they begin to actually break the immersion more often than they make the city/game world feel more full/alive as intended by becoming more of an inconvenient house cleaning chore. - Cheap gameplay designs intended to nerf poorly thought out gadgets like the Disruptor that break immersion by introducing behaviour to them without any logical explanation or reason other than to nerf it. - Some poorly designed areas where solid items don't count as cover so NPCS can see you through them & shoot you. Some environmental items have odd invisible walls around them leading to awkard moments in certain combat scenarios when trying to evade or escape. - Catwoman feels like an afterthought with her campaign awkwardly crammed in between at a few intervals leaving you playing an amazing superhero one second to playing an annoyingly slow, clumsy character the next purely because the vast majority of the game's environment were clearly never designed for her. With all that said, it's an amazing sequel to expand on the brilliance that was Arkham Asylum & definitely worth your money!

Kinda better than the previous Arkham
If you played Arkham Asylum, you know what to expect, only (mostly) improved. Why only three stars? Because I'm no longer a young kid with a lot of time to lose and it's very easy to get stuck by silly things and the supposed "hints" you can activate in Settings consist on Batman repeating every few seconds how you are wasting your time, instead of "I remember seeing this thing I need somewhere" or whatever. The specific thing that broke this game for me -you can power up idle motors with a special gun. Aim, shoot and it starts. Easy. Only for some motors the standard shot won't work, and your only clue to that is that is when you're aiming at them, there's a small icon showing the other button you need to press, the standard button will get a reaction from the motor but nothing else. I expected either a) all motors work with the same shot or b) Batman says "I should have used the alternate shot of this gun" or c) the gun description clearly states there's two kind of shots you can use. Also, at least in the early stages of the game they still use the Riddler only for collectibles unlocking info, just like the previous game. I don't know if we ever get to fight the Riddler this time, but I doubt it and it's a waste. Storywise, this feels rushed, the game feels like you started watching a tv show five minutes late -you still get what's going on but it feels you missed the details. Characters appear and disappear as if they charge by the second. A small thing, but you notice it. This is the Joker and Harley Quinn Show, ft. Batman, and Joker is off-screen most of the time. Finally, and maybe it's just my PC, but I couldn't immediately play this in full screen, only in windowed mode, maximized with an ugly blue border and title bar. I admit I didn't try to fix it, I think the previous Arkham had a similar issue, but it should just work. Minor things, but they really break the flow, and given the original game this is a sequel of, this gets 3 stars from me.
