@nickzambuto: Except that feat is essentially the only one I ever see get brought up. He has feats better than that and i don't understand why they never get brought up.
@thebourneposter: That's not Snake's only feat, but it's one of his best. I'm tempted to say Snake outclasses Batman in every stat. A wounded Snake has tanked an entire strut getting blown up, with no real issue, he dodged railgun fire in a 70 year old body, while in the midst of a seizure, broken down jail-cell doors when he was a rookie, has hidden from stealth masters and meta-humans, helped Raiden stomp through hordes of bullet-timing soldiers, and has weaponry that can shoot at hypersonic speeds. I don't see how Batman can hang with Snake and Wesker.
Arkham Batman is no comic Batman to be sure. But he's not fodder. His weakness against other established characters, especially Snake and Wesker, will be his speed. Based on the tie in comics he's a bullet timer, who dodges and deflects bullets, and he fought metahumans, but none of them with overly impressive speed feats themselves. So speed will be a big issue for him.
But I think a combination of his armor, willpower, and natural durability makes him harder to take down than Snake. He got smashed through a solid concrete prison wall by Bane with literally no damage, after a whole night of fighting assassins. Normal titan henchman were tearing apart steel like paper. This Bane was buffed by Titan and Venom, and had significantly more muscle mass than any of the other henchman did.
Strength wise, Batman was able to beat down Killer Croc, who effortlessly tanked multiple point blank explosions and had sniper rifle rounds bouncing off him. Bruce also tore/thrashed apart the metal Wonder City robots with his bare hands.
I also think Batman has an edge in gear. He doesn't get fodderized by Snake or Wesker.
