10 Coolest Gadgets In Batman Video Games
9. Explosive Gel - Batman: Arkham Series (2009-2015)
Batman is not exactly known for his sense of humour, particularly when he's on the job. Appearances can be deceiving, however, and none more so in the world of DC, so maybe we were too quick to judge... maybe there's some hidden wit about the stone-faced superhero after all!
I'm referring, of course, to his quaint little habit of spraying explosive gel onto walls in a deliberate bat shape - every single time. Is it another scare tactic, or does he secretly enjoy painting those little bats on every structurally unsound surface he comes across?
Whatever the case, the explosive gel is a very useful tool both in and out of battle. As well as blowing down walls that block progress, Batman can also detonate this gel from a distance, waiting for thugs to wander within its blast radius and send chunks of stone and plaster raining down on them.
It's also a handy quickfire gadget, too. When your opponents get too close for comfort, just spray a little on the ground or right in their faces to give them a good old dose of future tinnitus.
