  1. Yes the Newton/Mo interim title fight was a terrible idea.  Bellator really would've just been better off letting the Vegh/Newton fight take place and waiting to put Mo in an actual title fight.  Considering they gave Mo an easy track to winning a 2-man tournament.  I feel bad for Newton though.  He had to win a 3-man tournament and had to beat Mo again and he's still not the real champion, who is not even injured now.  

     

    But yes this card is the perfect of example of why you should never put three title fights on one card.

  2. In a nutshell guys, i've avoided all spoilers and even information about games i'm getting the next few months (such as this, Pokemon, would have been Watch Dogs..)How does this stack up against Asylum and City for you all? Am I right in hearing that this was made by a different team those games as when someone said that I was kinda put off as I loved them both.Cheers

     

    I think the combat is a bit slower.  I love the environments and stages more.  Gotham City looks fantastic.  I love the music and how Gotham City looks a little more elegant and brightly lit with all the Christmas decorations.  The story and emotional depth here is an improvement over Arkham City I think.  I'd elaborate but I don't want to risk spoiling any of the story for you.  

     

    I like the new enemy types, love the Bat-Cave and Alfred, getting to play the challenge maps as you progress in-game, crime scene reconstruction, and quick travel.  Boss fights are way better and more varied as well as very satisfying.  Now in terms of overall presentation, Arham City has this beat because of how well presented and polished it was.  It didn't have all the issues at launch that Origins did.  Like it wouldn't save my progress if I interrogated an Enigma thug and returned to the Batcave.  Also, there was another glitch where I after I defeated a thug I needed to interrogate, the interrogate prompt just wouldn't pop up and let me finish it.  Plus the lag issues with the cut scenes and quick travel, it's something that detracted from the overall experience.

     

    The challenge maps are great, and I love getting to play as Deathstroke.  Multiplayer to me doesn't work very well.  It's a very clunky multiplayer.  It's hard to see anything in the maps.  I don't think this style of game worked well for multiplayer.  I think maybe they should try co-op for like the combat challenge maps or like a co-op combat arena.  

  3. Yeah, he did so well in GI JOE they killed off the important-to-the-franchise Destro like a d-list character in the second movie.

     

    No they didn't, they just wrote him out.  He didn't die.

     

     

     

    They made him a Jock, which is a bit like making Idris Elba a yank. Terrible.

     

    So what you're saying is...that The Wire is terrible?

  4. Maybe a stupid question that i probably already know the answer too since there wasn't one in the last game but there is no 'point of no return' right? I can go back and do side quests after i beat the main story? I'm about 20% through so far and i'm sure i'm missing some of the side quests since there are gaps between some of the ones I've unlocked on the mission screen.

     

    Agreed that it feels huge, I've dropped several hours into this already and i'm sure there are parts of the city i haven't even been too yet, never mind about any parts that may unlock as the game goes on.

     

    Yeah all the sidequests will still be there.  I didn't finish a couple of them and the collectible missions until after.

     

    I think the game does have a point of no return.

     

    Once you go to the bridge to pursue Firefly.

  5. I wouldn't mind it at all if they were all being puppeteered by the real Mandarin, who turns out to be Raza from IM1. What happened to that dude, anyway? 

     

    (I was actually waiting for him to be the big twist on the twist in IM3)

     

    The implication was that Stane's men shot him to hell.  Though his death was off-screen.  He got paralyzed by Stane's device and then Stane's troops went into his tent and started shooting.

  6. Collecting all the Enigma data packs unlocks the new 52 Batman skin.  I've already got like 6 alternate Bat skins at this point, plus the ones for Deathstroke.  Just trying to find the last of the Anarky tags before I move on to new game plus.

     

    Honestly, my hope is that the story DLC is the following:

     

    Deathstroke going on some badass mission from Cadmus and Amanda Waller going off of the post-credits cutscene.
