What would you name it? I mean it's set in Arkham city after all..

I presume the implication is the inmates are out of the Asylum and in the City, and they're turning it into a bigger version of Arkham Asylum?

Well, could be worse. They clearly wanted to keep the Arkham link due to brand recognition even though the setting had changed.

Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

There's no Arkham City. It's Gotham City. So they made a mix of both Arkham Asylum and Gotham City.

I'd have called it "Mad City" or "Gotham Burning" or something. Arkham was just a place in Gotham City named after the guy that built it. It's like calling a city that has a Wal-Mart something like "Wal-City". I'm sure they have their reasons, though. The guys responsible for the last game had close ties to the makers of the comic. Maybe everything will fall into place.
