One thing I've never understood about the Batman universe is Arkham.

Posted by Ender (aka Ender) Aug 24 '09, 12:59

You've got a city filled with psychopathic villains and they routinely escape from your asylum. After the first few escapes don't you maybe start shunting some tax dollars towards the asylum to spruce the joint up and lock it down?

There are actually several places where supervillains are housed. They break out of all of them. -- nm - TWuG Aug 24, 13:03 3
- What they really need to do is house them in blister packs. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 13:04 2
  - I recommend LUCITE! -- nm - Comic Book Store Guy Aug 24, 13:04 1
    - Best. Death. Ever. (nm) - musubi Aug 24, 13:21
arkham asylum is the best pro-death penatly example there is - dogbert183 Aug 24, 13:02
Oh, it is constantly upgraded. The real solution is to ship people further away, to separate facilities. -- nm - Spawn Aug 24, 13:00 12
- Like the Negative Zone! -- nm - David Aug 24, 13:17 1
  - Don't try to apply logic to the DC universe. -- nm - Spawn Aug 24, 13:18

    - me too. it'll be here tomorrow :) -- nm - decline Aug 24, 13:12
    - This is the first time (sorry Haloers) that I have *really* wanted a new game system. -- nm - Spawn Aug 24, 13:11 5
      - halo the stand alone game sucks. - tRuMaN from a cellphone Aug 24, 13:12 4
        
        I may have to. Or move in for a week. -- nm - Spawn Aug 24, 13:13
        
        I don't know if I'd say it sucks (of course I wouldn't) - but it's not great. The multiplayer is smoooth and awesome, though. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 24, 13:13 2
        
        compared to most other first person shooters, it would be in the bottom 25th percentile (the game) - tRuMaN from a cellphone Aug 24, 13:28 1
        
        No, not that bad. There are just a few at the top that have set the bar very high (Hello, half-life!) -- nm - Beryllium Aug 24, 13:32
  - Yeah. I like the fact that (spoil) - Spawn Aug 24, 13:08
