um, what does, Evening the odds means?

[CEO of La Responsabilité]

is this some idiom or quote? English is not my mother language and I always heard about Batman talking about "Evening the odds", and even in the new gameplay, there is a button called "Even the odds" and summon a batmobile, what does that ever mean?

[ToxicKookie]

"The odds" are usually something that favor one group or person over another. Evening them is seen as making the event more fair.

[Chunkarock]

Evening the odds means that he's making sure that everything is fair game or at least the current situation leans favorably on his side rather than the enemy's.

oh thanks everyone, took some time to get it, I never know even could use as a verb too, and I mixed up odds with odd

Yep, and also the context it's used in for the game is Batman stating to Oracle that he's "evening the odds" against the thugs he's fighting by calling in the Batmobile.

This, the Vehicle that Scarecrow's Thug was driving is a Military Grade Vehicle that the GCPD were having alot of trouble with, pitting The Batmobile up against the Military Vehicle would be "Evening The Odds"...:-)

There's only so much police officers can do against a fully trained militia with access to military grade equipment.

As of right now there is no definitive information that suggets this will be the case.
