Long before interest in Batman games erupted with the Arkham Asylum series, Batman Begins was showing us what a proper Caped Crusade looked like.
Inspired by the 2005 Christopher Nolan film, Batman Begins was and is still noteworthy for following the movie character's technique in its approach to combat--you didn't just beat down thugs with martial arts, you used fear tactics and stealth maneuvers. You threw smoke grenades and used HF (High-Frequency) Transponders to summon flocks of bats. Much like the film, there was a very real psychological component to the game--on that note, Cillian Murphy's Scarecrow is still terrifying.
So too were the locations compelling, each with their own identity. Whether it was the sewers and waterfront of Gotham City, its high-rises and skyscrapers, the monastery in the Himalayan Mountains where the League of Shadows dwelled, or the eeriness of the Nolan-verse Arkham Asylum, every single location was fun to explore and navigate.
Not to mention the Tumbler. To this day, it's still the greatest take on racing through the streets of Gotham in the Batmobile.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 is an action-adventure game and a sequel to the 2010 game, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, and the 35th installment on the Castlevania franchise. The game was developed by MercurySteam and published by Konami. This is MercurySteam's last contribution to the franchise. The story is set in both medieval and modern worlds.
As in the previous game, the player controls Gabriel Belmont, now known as Dracula, as he fights through an open world. During the game's opening sequence the player is able to control Dracula while he still possesses all his powers as well as all of his weapons. Dracula's main weapon is his Blood Whip, a weapon that is comparable to the Combat Cross from the original Lords of Shadow. Replacing the magic system from the previous game are the Void Sword and the Chaos Claws. The Void Sword can replenish Dracula's health when used while the Chaos Claws can be used to break through enemy defenses and deliver powerful attacks. The story mode in Lords of Shadow 2 has been stated to be far longer than the previous one. The game is mainly an open world allowing the player to choose what route to take. This game also features a movable camera, something that was not available in the first Lords of Shadow game.Open world Action Fantasy Horror
