After Watch Dogs, Batman Arkham City is the next on my list. Then I plan to buy Arkham Origins.

Do you like the game?

Deividas4350d ago

Its an okay game. But it will be a HUGE letdown if you play it right after Arkham City...

Ezz20134350d ago (Edited 4350d ago )

i don't agree
it have better story and longer, acting is great, the atmosphere and the armor and boss fights and the side quest is far better than B:AC
also Bane was really the true Bane i wanted all along in Batman game
no the stupid version of Batman and Robin Crappy movie where Batman have Credit Card

the real problem that this game have is that it didn't look that much different than AC and lots of Glitchs .

i know that i'm the only on the internet who think that though
anyway Arkham Kight look and feel far better than both in pretty much every possible way

@Palitera

the gameplay is pretty much the same with few minor tweaks here and there

@Deividas
Yeah, i know ...i shall forever stand in the dark cornor alone with my opinion :(

But Arkham knight amazed me to no end
can't wait to get my hand on this very epic game

Palitera4350d ago

Is it more of the same or actually worse?

Also, gameplay-wise, how does it fare against the two precedent masterpieces?

camel_toad4350d ago

Yeh I thought just okay at best too. It sucked compared to what Rocksteady did but that's what happens sometimes when you hand off a franchise.

Deividas4350d ago (Edited 4350d ago )

@ Palitera

Its more of the same. And thats the issue, Arkham City improved on almost every part from Akrham Asylum while origins, just does exactly what the others have done. It doesnt try much of anything new really and there are no really "memorable parts" of that game. You will still enjoy it but its just not on the same level as Rocksteady level design, characters, or story telling.

@Ezz
Yea you might be one of the few that enjoyed it over AC but if you like it then fair enough :) its all a matter of opinion anyways, but yea I do agree Arkham Knight looks like a vast improvement, but again...Rocksteady knows you cant just do the same thing in a franchise and keep it relevant.

Palitera4350d ago

Thanks.

They've fixed a lot of the bugs.
It's a solid game now.

Great evidence scanning system
Better Boss Fights than Arkham City
Strong cast of characters/actors
Does a great job telling the Origin stories of characters, surprisingly well.

You'll enjoy it. People build up Arkham City to stupid expectations...Arkham City is an epic game and an awesome batman game if you play all of it, but bare in mind Origins was WB Montreals first game taking the mantle of Rocksteadys legacy. They've learned a lot from launch.

Christopher4350d ago

Well, they could improve by supporting their game rather than promoting DLC and saying that they won't fix game-breaking issues in it.

wannabe gamer4350d ago (Edited 4350d ago )

so which subject is this article about
THIS- Where Did Batman: Arkham Origins Go Wrong?
OR THIS - With Arkham Knight on the way, will it improve upon Arkham Origins?

seems like 2 different subjects

Outside_ofthe_Box4350d ago

It wasn't developed by Rocksteady.

Vandamme214350d ago

My only problem with origins was the fact that the kombat system didn't feel as good as city and asylum..but overall it was a solid game.

gabbboolo4350d ago

I liked the game, but it was just less interesting than arkham city. Also Gotham was just a Christmas reskin. But at the end of the day it was more of the Arkham gameplay I like, and Troy baker did a good job.

The getaway
Smugglers run
Dead to rights
Worlds scariest police chases
Sure I’m missing a few.

FPS_D3TH482d ago

Mannn… worlds scaries police chases… that took me back lol

Knushwood Butt482d ago

Ape Escape.
Fun game but, wow, you need a college degree to understand the controls.
A remaster would also save you from having to constantly fight the camera.
Keep the music though. Those drum and bass tracks fit really well and haven't aged. Made me think that more games could work well with drum and bass tracks, but unfortunately it's a somewhat niche genre now.

Abear21482d ago

Max Payne Series
Infamous 1 & 2
NBA Street Vol 2
SSX
Skate

M_Prime482d ago

i could have sworn i read somewhere that Remedy is remaking May Payne 1 but things have been quiet lately

YourMommySpoils481d ago

They are making the first one, as we speak.

jznrpg482d ago (Edited 482d ago )

One of the few Xbox games I own. I have 3 copies of it because of the many discs it has, for just in case reasons

jznrpg482d ago (Edited 482d ago )

Xenogears, Xenosaga trilogy, Vagrant Story, Drakengards, Parasite Eve and many more but I’ll start with those

The best Batman Arkham game still isn’t on PS5, and that’s a problem

Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League is almost here, but I can't revisit the best Arkhamverse game on PS5 without sacrificing quality.

Not a fan of Orgins. Blame it on the absence of Conroy & Hamill. Blame it on the lack of atmosphere compared to Asylm. Hell blame it the devs thst dicked over Wii U owners like me that purchased the game only for support be dropped as a thank you to me. It's better than Knight but that's not saying much. I don't care for that entry either.

Rebel_Scum875d ago

tbh buying a game like that for WiiU should’ve been an obvious non-purchase when it existed on better hardware.

Cacabunga875d ago

Origins is amazing..
my favorite Batman is Batman and Robin on mega drive.. an HD REMASTER of that would still look glorious

ZeekQuattro874d ago

I got it launch. Kinda hard to go back. I'm supposed to know they were going to drop support months after the fact. 🤣

Exvalos875d ago

You sound like a salty fanboy, that it didn't come to your precious plastic of choice. It's not the developers fault Nintendo continues making underpowered hardware. It's our fault because we keep buying it. Yes I say (we) I'm part of the problem as well.

ZeekQuattro874d ago

I have a PS3 and a Wii U. How was I a salty fanboy? I bought the game on the system I wanted it for.

Rebel_Scum874d ago

Nah my comment has nothing to do with whether you’d know or not that they’d drop support.

Buying any AAA game of that era for a WiiU you should’ve known you’d be sacrificing graphics and load times.

LucasRuinedChildhood875d ago

It's solid but Origins is definitely not the best Arkham game.

LoveSpuds874d ago

Smacks of hyperbole to me, talk about clutching at straws to create some drama around PS5!!

generic-user-name874d ago

Titles like these are designed to get you to come in, go to their comment section and tell them how they're so wrong so they can boost their numbers.

Phoenix76875d ago

Even though its not the best arkham game in the series, its still an enjoyable game in its own right. What it do really well at though, was the crime investigations scenes. Which imo, were the best of the franchise.

goldwyncq875d ago

I don’t know about best game but it definitely has the best story and boss fights.

boing1875d ago

Never played it and recently I've finally tried it via cloud on psn. It's not the best for sure, but it ain't bad either.
