In one corner you have Assassin's Creed 2, sequel to the 8 million selling franchise. Reviews were mixed for the first game because of the repetitive nature of the gameplay. But it was something new at the time and fans bought it like hot cakes. The sequel promises more of the same but bigger in everyway with a new hero.

In the other corner, you have Batman Arkham Asylum. The critics are loving it and calling it the best comic book game of all time and a game of the year contender. It has an avg scores of 90 plus on Metacritic. Oh, it is also a game with one of the best known superhero and villian in the history of comic.
So, which game will win in lifetime sale? I am a huge batman fan but even with all the accolades and fans that batman has, I still think Assassin's Creed is going to win due to there are tons of anticipation from gamers and fans owning and liking the first game.
What do you think.
