3. The Challenge Rooms - Batman: Arkham
It's very hard to narrow down one particular combat encounter that stands out more than the rest across the entirety of the Arkham trilogy, but that's no knock against the game, instead quite the opposite. What Rocksteady created with their 'Freeflow' combat system was a truly revolutionary take on third-person brawling that mixed Fable and Assassin's Creed's core feel with some brilliant gadgets and a hell of a lot of impact. When you land a right hand as Batman you really feel it, and no matter which Arkham title you pick up, you'll get access to a range of 'Challenge Rooms' purpose-built to showcase how well you can beat the paste out of everything in sight.
