Batman has secured Arkham Asylum. Gotham City is safe. So...what's a superhero to do while crime reorganizes? If you're Batman, you grab your batarangs and search elsewhere for evil faces to punch.
The Masked Manhunter's foul-o-meter has led him to video-game land, where corruption and wickedness never sleep. Five particular titles will thoroughly test Batman's vigilante skills.
Detective's Creed
Bats is really good at interrogating suspects. Sadly, Batman's ridiculous "don't kill" rule prevents him from guest starring in Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed series. That's a shame because spotting bad guys with the Detective Vision and effortlessly grappling from buildings would be quite fun.
Batman 64
Lex Luthor proved he's an evil genius when he conceived Superman 64 and made thousands of gamers want to kill themselves. Luthor was also responsible for Arkham City's frustrating AR training missions, where you must fly through magical, floating rings. Batman 64 may be a fantasy, but at least I can beat up Luthor with the Bat in Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe.
Batman vs. Marvel vs. Capcom
Remember how excited you got when Capcom finally announced Marvel vs. Capcom 3? Imagine if a certain guy in a flying-mammal suit was part of the roster. Batman would bring all of his gadgets to the fight as well as assists from Robin, Commissioner Gordon, and maybe even Alfred.
Bat Effect 3
Batman needs to join the Normandy crew in Mass Effect 3. The Dark Knight can help Commander Shepard convince the galaxy that humans are capable of harassment and intimidation just as well as any freaky alien. What the hell are Reapers going to do against a billionaire playboy who fights clowns?
Tomb Crusader
Thanks to all those secret trophies dispersed throughout Gotham, Batman has a lot of training searching for hidden treasures. Bruce Wayne and Tomb Raider's Lara Croft have a lot in common: They're both wealthy, athletic, adventurous, and look good in spandex. The world's greatest detective mostly works alone, but I doubt he'd mind investigating moist caverns with the world's sexiest archaeologist.
