Analgesic nephropathy involves damage to one or both kidneys caused by overexposure to mixtures of medications, especially over-the-counter pain remedies (analgesics).
Phenacetin nephritis; Nephropathy - analgesic
Analgesic nephropathy involves damage within the internal structures of the kidney. It is caused by long-term use of analgesics, especially over-the-counter (OTC) medications that contain phenacetin or acetaminophen and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin or ibuprofen.
About 6 or more pills per day for 3 years increases the risk some for this problem. This frequently occurs as a result of self-medicating, often for some type of chronic pain.
Analgesic nephropathy occurs in about 4 out of 100,000 people, mostly women over 30. The rate has decreased significantly since phenacetin is no longer widely available in OTC preparations.
Risk factors include:
There may be no symptoms. Symptoms of chronic kidney disease are often present over time and may include:
A physical examination may show signs of interstitial nephritis or kidney failure.
Blood pressure may be high. The doctor may hear abnormal heart or lung sounds when listening to the chest with a stethoscope. There may be signs of premature skin aging. There may be swelling, especially in the lower legs.
Lab tests may show red or white blood cells in the urine, with or without signs of infection. There may be small amounts of protein in the urine .
Tests that may be done include:
The primary goals of treatment are to prevent further damage and to treat any existing kidney failure. The health care provider may tell you to stop taking all suspect painkillers, particularly OTC medications.
Signs of kidney failure should be treated as appropriate. This may include diet changes, fluid restriction, dialysis or kidney transplant , or other treatments.
Counseling, behavioral modification, or similar interventions may help you develop alternative methods of controlling chronic pain.
Call your health care provider if you have signs of this condition, especially if there has been a history of use of painkillers.
Call your health care provider if blood or solid material is present in the urine, or if your urine output decreases.
The damage to the kidney may be acute and temporary, or chronic and long term.
Follow the directions of the health care provider when using medications, including OTC medications. Do not exceed the recommended dose of medications without the supervision of the health care provider.

When Kuakini patients come in for a CT (computed tomography) scan in the Imaging Services Department, they may also get a short pep talk from Ferdinand Badua, CT Technologist and Employee of the Month for March, because he knows what it's like to be a patient getting a scan.
A recent lymphoma survivor, Ferdinand has gained a new lease on life and a clearer purpose. "Maybe God helped me survive so I can tell patients that there is a purpose for their survival," he said. "When you are given a second chance, you take life more seriously, you try to live life more productively and you (have) more gratitude. I am now more thankful for the things I have."
He talks to patients and shares his story because sometimes, he said, they feel helpless. "I tell them that there is hope in treatment, that they can beat the disease, that it's not the end of the road and there's purpose. I let them know that there is a reason for everything and encourage them to never give up," he said. "I see them as people, not as patients or bodies."
Ferdinand joined Kuakini in 1995 as an X-Ray technician in the Imaging Services Department. After six years, he became a CT Technologist. His main responsibility includes using the GE LightSpeed Scanner to perform CT scans. He received his associate's degree in radiology from Loma Linda University in Southern California where he worked for one year before moving back to Hawaii.
When Ferdinand found out about his nomination, he wanted to give the award to somebody else who was "more deserving." He said he was not a solo act and that he would not be able to do his job well without other people's help. "I think everybody plays a role, not just one person, because we work as a team. If someone would get the award, it should be the whole team."
Ferdie (his nickname) is a "true inspiration" to the department, said his supervisor Chris McIntire. "He leads the department in positive patient responses and performs all duties flawlessly. We are a better hospital with Ferdie doing his thing. Everybody loves Ferdie."
And Ferdie loves Kuakini. "It's like family here…It's small but we have a family work environment," he said. "This makes it better for patients because they feel the closeness of the people from Kuakini. It makes them more comfortable, and the interaction with them becomes more personal."
Ferdie likes going to the beach to surf, mostly on the south shore. During his free time, he enjoys working in his yard and walking his dogs.

The Rhythm of the Rails: Jack Delano's iconic 1940s images of trains, railyards and workers
Written by Steve Meltzer, Shared via Imaging Resource
If you've taken any of our online photography courses or have learned photoshop, you know all about turning black and white photos into color.
Jack Delano's gorgeous color images from the 1940s remind us of the day when railroads dominated the American landscape -- and the American consciousness. The gigantic locomotives, the play of light on steel rails and the huge roundhouses were all elements that spurred the imagination and presented a subject of infinite possibilities for a photographer. The railroads had bound the country together and opened the West. Chicago was the hub, especially the Chicago and Northwestern Railway Company's Proviso yard.
Working for the U.S. Farm Security Administration, he traveled across America photographing the effects of the Depression on American life. At the time, the railroads meant freedom and they seduced thousands of unemployed men -- and some women -- to ride the rails. They hitched rides on freight trains and hid in empty cars or slept on top of them, always on the alert for the railroad cops. In the depths of the Depression, their primary goal was to get "somewhere else" and find a job.
Born Jacob Ovcharov in 1914 in the small Russian village of Voroshilovka, Delano came to America in 1923 with his parents and younger brother. By the age of 9 his creative talents were already evident, and he attended the Settlement Music School in Philadelphia where he studied graphic arts, photography and the viola. After that he continued his studies of illustration and music at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts until 1932.
In 1941, Stryker sent Delano to photograph rural poverty in Puerto Rico. He fell in love with the island and, in 1946, he and his wife Irene settled there permanently. Delano began to write music, and for the next 50 years produced full orchestral, chamber and instrumental works, choral pieces and more. (You can see and hear one of his compositions played by the Orquesta Sinfonica del Conservatorio de Puerto Rico below.)
In Puerto Rico, Delano began to make movies of island life and, in 1953, directed and wrote the score for a film called Los Peloteros about poor rural kids and their love for baseball. The film became a classic in Puerto Rican cinema.
Like so many photographers of his time, Delano was a multi-faceted talent. And although he died in 1997, he left us the legacy of his superb photographs and his music compositions.

How to identify a good essential oil
Identifying Botanical species
Essential oils must imperatively come from botanically certified plants, i.e. identified by their Latin name.
- For example: Eucalyptus radiata
Plant Identification
Aromatology is a science based on precise botanical knowledge. Ignorance and neglect of this knowledge can lead to abuse, adverse reactions, and toxicity. Latin names must be used, rather than vernacular information that can be imprecise and sometimes misleading. It is imperative to know precisely which plant to use.
A "Family" is composed of related group of classes.
A "Class" is composed of a closely related group of species.
A "Species" is composed of a closely related group of plants with very specific characteristics.
A "Subspecies" is a species division.
A "Cultivated Variety" (cultivar) is plant cultivated for unique, specific characteristics. It is a spontaneous variant of a species (not to be confused with voluntary hybridizing)
A "Hybrid" is the result of a cross between varieties, cultivar and species.
Essential oils contain a broad spectrum of various aromatic molecules that need to be mentioned on labels.

Don't worry about your plot, Mutt. You're doing great. Given the nature of your story, I saw the punch as a wake-up call of sorts. And MM's dialogue is also not a problem in terms of aggressiveness or being unlikable.Mad-Mutt wrote:That being said, I don't know how I feel about the punch.

SAG-AFTRA honors the life and legacy of Philip Seymour Hoffman. Nominated for seven Screen Actors Guild Awards, he won the Actor for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor for his title role in the 2005 film "Capote."
LOS ANGELES (Jan. 29, 2014) –– Yesterday, a federal court judge dismissed the remainder of a lawsuit against SAG-AFTRA filed by Ed Asner. In his order, United States District Court Judge Manuel L.

The consumption of fuel is growing rapidly around the world. There are some researchers who say that the earth will run out of fossil fuels very soon.
One reason is the increase in transportation needs. Many people around the world own a car, and some of these vehicles are not fuel efficient. Some vehicles though made to look fancy and powerful do not do well in fuel efficiency. This is obvious as you cant have the best of two worlds always. On the other hand, there are many vehicles that are been developed that are fuel efficient. They are often referred to as eco cars. These cars promise more mileage per liter and do not weigh much.
Another area that makes use of tons of fuel is the airline industry. Each airport will undoubtedly have an airplane filling station which hold thousand of gallons of airplane fuel. Airplanes consume large amounts of fuel, and this contributes a lot to the diminishing fuel supplies. However, in recent years there have been advancements in airplane fuel technology too. There have been trial flights of planes running on a combination of bio-fuel and regular airplane fuel. This has yet to be used in commercial air travel.
Many vehicles are now being developed to use natural gas. However, this is yet to come into popularity. There are many companies that are now developing hybrid vehicles too. These are rather popular but come with a hefty price tag.
Everybody is aware of the fact that global warming is increasing and affecting the environment. That is why it is imperative that more time and resources are used to develop alternative fuel systems. There are battery powered vehicles; hydrogen powered vehicles and then there are also ethanol powered vehicles. However, these have not come into mainstream markets.
Let us all hope that alternative fuels find their way into our vehicles enabling us to live in a safer world that is more environment-friendly.

THE NEED Mason Square literally has no place to go year round to purchase quality, affordable food. It is a "Food Desert." Neighborhood residents, especially those without transportation (which is NOT an insignificant number) are forced to purchase "groceries" from a local CVS. This contributes significantly to the "The Situation." THE RESPONSE The Mason Square Food Justice Initiative, along with the Mason Square community at large, is working together to bring in a full service grocery store so that ultimately, Mason Square residents can feed their families high quality, fresh foods. CALL TO ACTION Grocery chains want to site their stores where people have money to spend. We want to demonstrate the purchasing power of the Mason Square community in a practical, yet powerfully symbolic way. We're inviting residents in Mason Square and surrounding neighborhoods to save their grocery receipts.

Chest infection
Mediastinitis is usually results from an infection. It may occur suddenly (acute ) or may develop slowly and get worse over time (chronic ). It most often occurs in patients who recently had an upper endoscopy or chest surgery.
Patients may have a tear in their esophagus that causes mediastinitis. Causes of the tear include:
Other causes of mediastinitis include:
Risk factors include:
Some of the signs of mediastinitis in patients who have had recent surgery include:
Tests include:
Your health care provider may insert a needle into the area of inflammation and remove a sample to send for gram stain and culture to determine the type of infection.
You may receive antibiotics if you have an infection.
You may need surgery to remove the area of inflammation if the blood vessels, windpipe, or esophagus is blocked.
How well a person does depends on the cause of the mediastinitis.
Mediastinitis after chest surgery is very serious. There is a significant risk of dying from the condition.
Complications include the following:

Will I become addicted if I use home oxygen therapy?
Oxygen is not addictive. In fact, home oxygen therapy can help improve the length and quality of life for a person with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Using oxygen at home can help decrease shortness of breath and improve sleep. It can make physical and mental activity easier, which can help you do more. Oxygen therapy can also reduce hospitalizations.
Home oxygen therapy comes in several forms, including a compressed gas cylinder (oxygen tank), liquid oxygen or a machine called an oxygen concentrator. You may also use a portable oxygen system, which you can take with you so that you can be more active. You normally receive the oxygen using nasal tubes.
Oxygen can be harmful at certain doses, so you can get it only with a doctor's prescription. Keep tanks away from the following: electrical equipment, combustible materials, lit cigarettes, cigars or pipes, open flames; sparks, or petroleum-based products.

I have heard that if you want something done, give it to a busy person. I have no idea why that is a good idea. I guess it means a busy person will always find a way to squeeze in one more thing, while a lazy person wouldn't, otherwise they wouldn't be lazy.

Waverly Country House Toile Red is a deep, almost barn-red French Country fabric. While the shade is vibrant, it also has an aged quality. Country House Toile has a medallion and floral pattern, with vines that weave around and through each medallion. The medallion itself is a toile that presents an outdoor scene- a pair of chickens in the country. Not so much a classic toile as a French Country design with toile elements, Waverly Country House Toile Red has a great hand that is wonderful for draperies, window treatments, slipcovers and bedding.

Garmin Approach S3 Golf GPS Watch
Christmas gift
Get product. I has helped me learn the true distances of my irons. Would totally recommend. I love the option that allows you to input hazards
December 29, 2014
Garmin S3
Perfect. If I didn't work as a nurse I would wear this watch all the time. It is bigger than I thought but not cumbersome at all and Very comfortable. On the course it is great. It was within a yard of a laser I was paired up with. Great quality. Great purchase.
October 10, 2014
I like the watch a lot , big improvement over the original golf watch. !
Great watch service at dicks was very good , a gentleman new how to Order and was just great with me. .

August 1, 2014
Lower scores and faster pace of play
You get exactly what you need with this watch. It's not overly complicated. Downloads quick to the courses and no lag time getting the distance you want. Helps your group play faster and let's you get closer to the pun with no guessing. I played 36 holes on Saturday and still have 25% on the battery.
June 30, 2014
EASY TO USE! Excellet Fit!
I haven't used this on the courses yet, but I wanted to leave my review anyway because I've messed around with it long enough to know it's SO EASY to use! Every single course in this area is already loaded on it, and the style and fitting is perfect! I'm a female golfer, and usually golf alone, so I wanted something that fit good, and would be accurate to help me work on correct distance & club selection during my game.
I am very happy with my purchase and VERY HAPPY with purchasing it at Dick's .....the customer service was excellent, and they helped me choose just the right GPS for my desires & requests. I chose this model, and then they put the order in online for me to get the white/red color.
January 28, 2014
Great Product
Have used an older model Golf Buddy for more than five years and decided to update with the watch GPS when the price was recently reduced. I found it to be very user friendly, accurate, and a great update for me. I like the distance to the 200/150/100 marks with just a tap of the screen. I wish Garmin would update the courses to include more targets (bunkers, distance to and over hazards, etc.), it can be done manually, but it would be nice to have it pre-loaded.I still rate it 5 stars and know I will enjoy using it for a long time before my next upgrade.
January 26, 2014
The real deal
Works every time especially being able to move pin on green
September 1, 2013
Garmin S3
I've used my Garmin S3 now three times in the past week, and I am completely satisfied with the convenience and accuracy of this GPS watch. Having the GPS on my wrist instead of in my pocket or golf cart is much more convenient. My playing buddies are envious and most didn't even know that garmin was in the golf GPS business, but they do now. My only criticism is that the battery has to be charged for every play day. I would think that someone would figure out how to make it solar powered..
August 4, 2013
A must have
A life saver! I'd you love to golf, then spend the money and enjoy this toy.

Using rigorous scientific methods, New Institutional Economics (NIE) focuses on the analysis of the economic impact and on the evolution of co-ordination devices: institutions, organisations and contracts. Main subjects of investigation cover issues that are essential in the design of efficient public policies and firm strategies. NIE put emphasis on applied analysis to confront the theory to facts to enrich the former accordingly. In addition, it is based on multi-disciplinarity to stimulate cross-fertilisation among political sciences, anthropology, sociology, management sciences, law, and economics.
The goal of ESNIE is to make PhDs and Post-doc aware of the recent development in NIE and to train them in using rigorous methods. In addition, they will benefit of intensive networking aimed at stimulating future exchanges and co-operation among participants and to favour the integration of young researchers in the research community.

5707 The Breguet Alarm Watch
26/02/2003The most important new timepiece for men in 2003 is the practical Breguet alarm watch in the Classique style — sophistication made simple for travellers. The ref. 5707 also gives the time in a different zone with the corresponding date, and features a power-reserve indicator for the alarm. The watch introduces two patented devices: a column-wheel mechanism to activate or deactivate the alarm, and a system to ensure the alarm time corresponds to local time.

The reason Dr.X enlisted Mojo in the first place, was because he know more about the PPG that X did.
So the question is, has Mojo already told X all that he wants to know? We really don't know enough about Dr.X at this point to know HOW evil he really is. If he's as evil as I think he is, than once he's got what he wants from Mojo, and he's no longer of any use to him, he'll probably just strait up kill him.
Does it really have to be a 'Time' Bomb? Why is it that I don't think so? What if its not?
You're right and yes, those are the questions to ask ourselves.
Well, it has to be a " 'Time' Bomb " if it made the Time Squad. What does the Time Squad do?

#D12 Gulf Port Action, One Year Later
4:17 pm in Uncategorized by Kit OConnell
More on the Gulf Port 7: Austin Police Enabled Houston Felonies, Judge Campbell is Not Amused, Austin and Houston Police Coordinated Through Fusion Center and 2 More Undercover Officers Revealed
Reflections on Gulf Port Action
One year ago today, Occupy Oakland declared a National Day of Action against Goldman-Sachs.
The action would center on the Port of Oakland, which they shut down for over two days. Solidarity actions around the country took place at other ports, at Walmart distribution centers, and Goldman-Sachs offices in New York City.
About 200 occupiers from around Texas gathered at Occupy Houston's encampment, Tranquility Park, and from there traveled to the Port of Houston where we blockaded the main entrance. There were twenty arrests.
I wrote about the Gulf Port Action on my blog, Approximately 8,000 Words and what it was like to step out onto the road around the port and see an army of law enforcement waiting for us:
l felt a little overwhelmed as we jumped from the car at the port, seeing a massive collection of law enforcement might. There were helicopters overhead, a couple dozen officers lining the street including mounted police on horses, and, behind a fence inside the port itself, we could see dozens more including a bus for arrests and the sheriff and SWAT team.
I'd never been to the port before, and there was a palpable sense of almost Cyberpunk-level desolation. The air smelled as bad as you imagine it does in a William Gibson book. At first there were few of us, but more and more began to get dropped off in waves until we had a couple hundred protesters at the peak, finally outnumbering the police. We chanted and spoke with a few members of the mainstream media that had managed to get inside. Then, suddenly, everyone — police and occupiers alike — were running.
Though I did not intend to do more than chant, observe, and livetweet, in the intense response to the blockade I found myself helping form a human wall to keep occupiers from being trampled by horses. Though I have attended many other activist events, including eluding a potentially violent arrest inside Chase headquarters at the September 17, 2012 anniversary of Occupy Wall Street, these attacks by police were the most intense I have personally faced. Despite our efforts, a young woman near me was kicked in the stomach by a mounted officer's steel-toed boots while a hoof stomped the shoe of Corey Williams, an Austin livestreamer (whose footwear was fortunately also reinforced). And then came the most psychologically violent act of the day: the 'one percent tent.' In an image that quickly went viral (and contributed to Oakland continuing its blockade into a second day), Houston Fire Department firefighters assembled a red inflatable tent over the activists to hide arrests from sight.

Native to Eurasia and first used by ancient Egyptians, Chamomile (Matricaria recutita) has daisy-like flowers and a long and storied history as a gentle, soothing herb. In traditional German herbalism, Chamomile was so popular it was called alles zutraut, meaning "capable of anything". With its pleasing sweet apple aroma, it has always been one of the worlds favorite teas. In addition, its fragrance makes Chamomile a pleasant addition to potpourris and aromatic dried flower arrangements. Cosmetically, Chamomile makes a wonderfully soothing bath, a penetrating facial, and it can be used to bring golden highlights to brown hair.

I was involved in a discussion about driver workload management the other week. It is a fascinating topic and I can see it becoming a much more important feature of in-vehicle HMIs in the coming years. The basic concept is pretty straightforward – when a driver is in a high workload situation (e.g. driving at 70mph on a crowded freeway), the HMI adapts so that the functionality available to the driver is a lot less (e.g. new navigational route setting is limited to favourite or previous destinations).
There are two main parts of the system: detecting when the driver is in a high-workload situation, and then changing the HMI. Detection involves bringing together inputs from many existing or imminent engine control units (ECUs), e.g. speed, collision detection (to detect presence of other vehicles), driver fatigue (e.g. using the driver facing camera to detect nasal temperature, which apparently is a good indicator of driver stress!), and navigation (e.g. detecting when approaching a complex junction or a traffic incident black spot).
Changing the HMI could be as simple as disabling all unnecessary or complex functions when in a high workload situation, or it could be more granular with functionality being gradually reduced as driver workload increases. This will of course require careful HMI design – OEMs don't want confused or annoyed drivers, if a HMI changed in unexpected way.
One of the potential uses of this technique is to enable smartphone applications in vehicles. The argument for this is that despite laws and accident statistics, many drivers will continue to use their smartphones whilst driving and hence it would be better to allow them to do this (as they will anyway), but in a safer way. Thus the HMI could allow the driver to send a text message only when stationary. Although a driver could of course circumvent this by using his cell phone directly, it may also help reinforce appropriate behaviour.
Perhaps less controversially would be to disable some in-built infotainment options and restrict more complex input to predefined or user-defined options: who really needs to set the time, configure their Pandora account, or even change their audio bass and treble whilst doing 70mph!
What is certain is that as functionality of the HMI continues to increase, addressing driver distraction in the HMI, through dynamically reducing the workload of the HMI, will become even more important, and those involved in automotive HMI across the industry have a responsibility to get together to help solve this problem.

2 Underwhelming and highly disappointing.jules74656 | 06/05/2013 | See all jules74656's reviews (4)I have to say, as a huge fan of the franchise, I so wanted to love this game. Initial promo shots and trailers looked extremely impressive, and gave rise to the hope that finally a decent trek game had arrived on a console.Unfortunately, the game is far less impressive upon playing. It's simply a second rate shooter with the occasional minor puzzle that has had a couple of key figures from the new film series roped in, along with other members of the crew providing the occasional voice-over.The game itself is stilted and very glitchy, the gameplay repetitive and, to be honest, very quickly becomes boring.I can only say that amongst a raft of great titles released around the same time such as the phenomenal Tomb Raider and God of War Ascension, Star Trek (and it kills me to type this) fails utterly, and is an incredibley underwhelming gaming experience. I find myself about halfway through the game, and wondering if it's actually worth finishing.Gutted and severely disappointed. The 2 stars are mostly out of loyalty as a trek fan, but in honesty, to my mind it barely deserves one.
1 don't waste your money!RooRooRooster | 05/07/2013 | See all RooRooRooster's reviews (1)Wow! So poor I can't believe the producers of this game sat back upon completion and said "yep that's a great game, it's ready for release, well done everyone" Graphics are real poor, I expected a lot more, bugs left right and centre, I'd heard poor reviews but had to buy it 'cos of the Star Trek factor and what a mistake that was, really wish I'd rented it. One star and that's only because of some good comical script by the actors voices themselves. Oh and for those that couldn't be bothered to finish the game well you really didn't miss anything, that was a let down too. One word.... poor
1 Utter let downDanfromneath | 21/05/2013 | See all Danfromneath's reviews (1)If you want excitement, a thrilling storyline and performances to remember, then I'd say you're far better off going to see Into Darkness.Amazing film...then I played this.If I had bought this I'd be furious! Luckily I rented so don't have to trade in a new game to get half the value like you normally do in store credit!Graphics are not bad in the game and there some great voice overs.The Trek culture is captured well in my opinion but the game play leaves a lot to be desired.It's very repetitive and restrictive.. Goes from very easy to very hard when the Ai has a mental breakdown. I literally don't know if I can be bothered to finish the game it's that dull!The weapons don't seem to be up to much and you get really sick of scanning everything with thr triquater very fast. So disappointing.If you want a gripping space themed epic then I'd highly recommend the Mass Effect series.One star, and that's only because I had to give it one on the review form.If you must play it, please rent and save your money.
1 awful star trek game everdoctorwhoman17 | 18/05/2013 | See all doctorwhoman17's reviews (2)star trek in my mind is the best thing ever written but not making it in the right way can be rubbish. the hacking system is awful there are bug that never stop playing only on 1 player , so if you like star trek go and play elite force DONT BUY THIS do thing with your money

Oct 18, 2011If you love Batman, you're gonna love this game. If you don't love Batman, then you'll enjoy the game too, as it doesn't go over the head of a casual fan's head with the story. Simply put BUY THIS GAME!

Feb 16, 2012This is hands down the greatest comic book game ever made. exceptional graphics and story coupled with engaging and challenging gameplay. I'm Batman :)

Nov 7, 2013As far as superhero games go, it doesn't get better than Batman Arkham City. People will try to copy, there will be more sequels, but this here, this is the real deal. Haven't played it yet? Where are you from, Mars?
Jan 24, 2012This game looks awesome and it is fun to play. the developer keeps the success story from arkham asylum witch was a really awesome game. The game looks sleek, it runs smooth, the missions and quest are fun and you will spend some serious time getting the riddlers riddle`s done. The game is overall awesome and should be in every gamers collection.
Nov 27, 2011
Aug 19, 2013Even if you haven't played Arkham Asylum (which is incredible in its own right) you owe it to yourself to pick up this game, period.
Perfect combat, great and surprising story, impeccable voice acting, amazing graphics and tons of content.
This is one of the reasons why we play video games in the first place!
A benchmark of excellence! A+++ -

Nov 25, 2011Not only is this one of the best games of the year, but one of the greatest games of all time and outperforms its predecessor in every way and no other game or movie makes you feel like the dark knight other than this one.

Nov 30, 2011Best single player game I have ever played. I LOVED IT! I would prefer the combat challenges to be a bit more difficult but all in all, very few flaws in this game..
Dec 6, 2011
Mar 13, 2012On my Christian gaming channel ( http://www.youtube.com/Gaming4Jesus ), I actually gave this game an 9. You DEFINITELY got PLENTY of game for your money. And it was actually a quite memorable game with its EXCELLENT game play and extra side-missions and other game types available.

Apr 3, 2013This game is the best game to be released EVER! It can't be beaten. If anyone challenges that then we will have to have a little chat. Great gameplay, great story, GREAT DLC and the HOTTEST CATWOMAN EVER

Aug 7, 2013Arkham City is a great sequel to Arkham Asylum. Everything that I can think of is improved in Arkham City. This game has one of the best openings and endings of any games I've ever played. It also has amazing replay value. This is the best game of 2011 and my favorite game of all time!

Oct 28, 2011Batman: Arkham City surprises me, I expected a very good and enjoyable games but instead I faced perfection. I love the game, by far the best game of the year yet.
Mar 31, 2012
Mar 24, 2012This game is absolutly stunning, technically excelent (amazing graphics!), and very funny.
The gameplay is OK, controls easy to handle (even with a lot of movements!). The History is good (maybe some details makes it no-perfect) and the music are great too. One of the best games in this generation -

Oct 27, 2011Amazing game! One of the best games I've ever played. I love it and I'm not even a big comic book series fan. If you like the new Dark Knight movies then you'll love this.
Oct 18, 2011Excellent game, great open world, 40 hours of great gameplay, addictive. Another masterpiece in the franchise to top an already fantastic first game. A masterpiece.
Oct 24, 2011Batman: Arkham City? The game of the year! Everything is just right because of the atmosphere, extent and variety forth. My fear that Arkham City could part the fate of the typical sequels , have been smashed at the begin very fast and runs even more after the end, because the side missions are providing to more fun.

Nov 9, 2011Bigger and better than Arkham Asylum, Arkham City once again brings you the ultimate Batman experience. And I HATE DC Comics, and I'm not a very big fan of the Bat, but I LOVE this game. The 3D is really cool, if you have it. This game is worth every penny!
Nov 10, 2011I have too much to say about this game, and it's not even because I'm a huge Batman fan. This game makes me believe the characters are real and inspires me in different ways. It is enormously addicting.
Oct 26, 2011
Oct 20, 2011This game just stole my vote for GOTY. From its suspenseful storytelling, to its GORGEOUS open-world, to the many secrets and easter eggs (not to mention disturbing inmates) within this city, this game has astounding replay value. The gameplay and voice acting are particularly noteworthy. Rocksteady has set such a high bar for themselves. This is one game you shouldnt miss out on!
Oct 18, 2011great game have a amazing history and a great open world to explore, batman have more moves, and a lot of side quests to spend time, a lot of time, dont miss the chance to play this game.

Oct 24, 2011This is a very good game. If you liked Arkham Asylum you will like Arkham City. It has a lot of the features Arkham Asylum had, but has a lot of extra features as well. If you did not like Arkham Asylum then you might not like Arkham City because it does not change enough of the formula to have completely different game mechanics. I loved it though. Graphics are great and so is the Gameplay.

Oct 18, 2011I have always loved Batman and this game was the bomb. The combat system amazing, the detective mode also amazing, and theres a lot of side quests so if you get tired of the campaign you can just start playing that. I also loved the new gagets in this game but I'm not going to name any though for spoilers. Over all this game deserves a 10/10 review. Peace out y'all and stop haten and trollen.

Oct 29, 2011
Oct 29, 2011has a great story, keeps the same combat for Arkham Asylum with some new things added to it it like multiple simultaneous counter attacks. the addition of side missions keeps you playing and the side missions are surprisingly entertaining making you want to do them.

Nov 4, 2011I been playing this game since the day it released and Rocksteady Studios has made the best superhero game or maybe one of the best games I ever played. But it is a little bit overrated in Metacritic for the critic scores. I recommend you go buy this game right away.
Nov 8, 2011Very fun and addictive game. Enjoyed every minute of it! Really liked the new features (New game + mainly) which adds just that much more to an excellent game!
Nov 8, 2011
Nov 8, 2011simply put if this does not win GOY then all that means is Skyrim ended up being far better than anyone expected it to be. Arkham City is one of the best games i have ever played. MUST BUY!!!!
Nov 9, 2011
Apr 13, 2013if I could give this game more than a ten I would this game is amazing the combat is fluid and easy to learn the story is fantastic and playing as catwoman is so much fun this game is a must have for any real gamer
Oct 21, 2011Just an amazing game. Rocksteady took what already worked well in Arkham Asylum and just immensely improved on it. Arkham City contains a perfect ammount of stealth, combat, and free roam to make it an amazing game. GOTY for me.
Oct 22, 2011Batman began as a comic, and as time and technology progressed he moved forward, to television, then movies and now finally games. And for the first time, fans of the hero get to actually feel like Batman in Gotham. With the side missions and dizzying cast of characters, anyone who doesn't think this game deserves the best rating you can give is wrong, period.

Oct 29, 2011i played Batman Arkham Asylum and it was a great game for me. i didn't hear anything about a new batman but when i saw the good reviews from the new batman i had to give it a try. And now playing it, it can't be any better for me.
Oct 28, 2011This game is a wonderful experience. The only downside I found was the lack of the much lauded multiplayer I had heard about for months. Other than that, it's as good as it gets. The best part is easily the amazing gameplay. To take the gameplay I loved so much in Arkham Asylum and open up the world into a full scale city. It's just an amazing idea. This is my favorite game in years.
Oct 29, 2011this game has everything from story, graphics and gameplay it simply excellent
Oct 29, 2011
Oct 31, 2011It is AMAZING, SPECTACULAR, ADICTIVE, the best game of superheroes and the best game of this generation.
And serious candidate of GOTY. Im very happy for this game, thank you Rocksteady. -
Nov 1, 2011Believe the hype - so much depth and polish and hours and hours of adventure to be had. This really steps up from where they were with the last game, and expands the Batman universe - Just a brilliant, brilliant game.
Nov 1, 2011Loved this game but the side mission structure was weird where not all of them were available by the time I beat it. And I took it slow and did a LOT of side stuff before playing story missions. Wish that was different, but all around an amazing game.

Nov 2, 2011
Nov 2, 2011This game is one of my favorite games of all time. I enjoyed the gameplay, though it gets a bit repetitive at times. Voice acting is exceptional and the open-world setup is a nice move on Rocksteady's part.
If you're looking for a good buy this holiday season, this game is great (as well as Uncharted 3!) and should definitely be on your list. -
Nov 4, 2011This game is phenomenal. It has amazing visuals, amazing story, amazing gameplay, and a mind-boggling story. Stop reading reviews and just buy this game!
Nov 4, 2011Who in the living hell gives this game a 0/10????????? LOL at this site. This is by far the best licensed game ever and one of the very best action games out there.
Nov 4, 2011the Batman series was dead but thanks to batman arkham assylum resurrected the Batman franchise. and this game is still better than arkham assylum I recommend this game stunning graphics and good gameplay.
Oct 28, 2011
Dec 29, 2011Arkham City is the best reflection of the Batman-comic books ever. Not because of the sheer amount of famous enemies that challenge our hero, but thanks to the amazing atmosphere that oozes from every pore of this remarkable action game. [Nov 2011, p.70]
Nov 29, 2011All in all, outside of a few minor issues, I couldn't ask for a better Batman experience. If Arkham City was a graphic novel, it would be considered a classic.
Nov 18, 2011Arkham City should be celebrated as a shining achievement for the action-adventure genre for its masterful execution. [Holiday 2011, p.70]
