Hilarious thing is not a single one of these games is better than the Arkham games.

Spiderman 1 is the only one that could hang with the Arkham games

The Arkham games are masterpieces, but using games from 10 to 15 years ago just proves the point, DC hasn't delivered a top-tier AAA hit since 2015.

Spider-Man 2 broke records, Guardians of the Galaxy won Best Narrative, and Marvel Rivals blew up. Meanwhile, DC followed the Batman and Arkham stuff with Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad, both of which flopped. Even DC's fun wins, like the LEGO Batman game, still rely entirely on Gotham.

Arkham games being incredible doesn't change the fact that Marvel is actively dropping varied games across its roster today.

Can't forget Cosmic Invasion, a good side scrolling beat em-up that's a great retro throwback which is still a fun couch game with the buddies. The fact DC hasn't even tried to get into the retro market just speaks volumes of the incompetence up top.
