I think as far as the dialogue/vocabulary is concerned, MKX was very respectable. The emphasis must lie on the overall story aspects in order to take advantage of the superb "little things" writing, though. I just finished the Arkham series and this immediately made me think of it. The dialogue in all of those games is fantastic, but only City had that amazing overall story writing in my opinion. The truth is most consumers don't pay a whole lot of attention to details, so if the major plot is shit, then the little gems of dialogue writing aren't enough to carry the load.
