in february 2009, as teams were moved from arkham asylum to arkham city's development as they completed the work on that game. by the time they had programmed batman to dive and glide between buildings of the asylum, the adaption of the gameplay to the city was considered natural. rocksteady decided to not include the batmobile, because it would be unable to travel on the city's broken terrain. batman's gliding provided a sufficient means of transportation, and it was considered that putting batman in any vehicle would make it a completely different game. sefton hill, arkham city's director from rocksteady

compared to the battle against psycho mantis in 1998's metal gear solid, and 2002's eternal darkness. the main voice cast — including conroy as batman, sorkin as harley quinn, valenza as poison ivy, and wingert as riddler — was well received, but hamill's performance received consistent praise, with reviewers commenting upon his excellent inflection and timing on a cackling, maniacal performance that steals the show. nguyen said that dini and hamill's joker was the best depiction of the character outside of the killing joke and heath ledger's incarnation in the dark knight ( 2008 )

" unlike the joker, gordon kept his wits and moral code. the story is also famous for changing how the modern age of comics perceived batman comics by bringing it back to its darker roots. the comic book, however, delves deeper in order to present batman's own psychology, how he was just as insane as the clown, and how he and the joker perceived the world according to differing points of view, with the joker's interpreted through a joke. the joker serves as an unreliable narrator. he admits to his own uncertainty, as he has disparate memories of the single event ( " sometimes i remember it one way,

said that the dlc featured a satisfying combination of the series'combat, stealth, and detective mechanics, and introduced interesting new enemy types that wield ice guns capable of freezing both batman and other enemies. reviewers described the story as entertaining, following the interesting character of mr. freeze, but considered it lacking in surprise because it replicates that of the 1992 batman : the animated series episode " heart of ice ". the final battle against mr. freeze was criticized for replicating several elements of the fight against the character in arkham city. similarly, ign and destructoid noted that the content lacked originality and innovation, providing generic environments

and discussed ideas with burton to better disguise the character, including the use of contact lenses. ultimately, keaton decided to perform batman's voice at a lower register than when he was portraying bruce wayne, which became a hallmark of the film version of the character, with christian bale later using the same technique. originally in the climax, the joker was to kill vicki vale, sending batman into a vengeful fury. jon peters reworked the climax without telling burton and commissioned production designer anton furst to create a 38 @ - @ foot ( 12 m ) model of the cathedral. this cost $ 100 @, @ 000 when the film

focus of ethical discussion on the desirability of batman ( who adheres to an unbreakable code forbidding killing ) saving lives by murdering the joker ( a relentless dealer of death ). these debates weigh the positive ( stopping the joker permanently ) against its effect on batman's character and the possibility that he might begin killing all criminals. in 2006, the joker was number one on wizard magazine's " 100 greatest villains of all time ". in 2008 wizard's list of " 200 greatest comic book characters of all time " placed the joker fifth, and the character was eighth on empire's list of " 50 greatest comic

with the batmobile. his technical genius is not limited by practicality, allowing him to hijack gotham's television airwaves to issue threats, transform buildings into death traps, launch a gas attack on the city and rain poisoned glass shards on its citizens from an airship. the joker is portrayed as skilled in melee combat, from his initial appearances when he defeats batman in a sword fight ( nearly killing him ), and others when he overwhelms batman but declines to kill him. he is talented with firearms, although even his guns are theatrical ; his long @ - @ barreled revolver often releases a flag reading " bang "

= = renowned as batman's greatest enemy, the joker is known by a number of nicknames, including the clown prince of crime, the jester of genocide, the harlequin of hate, and the ace of knaves. during the evolution of the dc universe, interpretations and versions of the joker have taken two forms. the original, dominant image is that of an extreme psychopath, with genius @ - @ level intelligence and a warped, sadistic sense of humor. the other version, popular in comic books from the late 1940s to the 1960s and in the 1960s television series, is an eccentric, harmless prankster and thief
