TheVileOne Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Yes it was in Origins as well. It wasn't quite as tough as in Arkham City, or maybe it was just that after spending hours on it City, I got more attuned to it. But like, man enough of that jazz already. It's not really a fun side mission, and you don't need the supreme gliding skills that badly. What I would like from the game: - Joker stays dead. Maybe Batman can see a vision or hallucination, but he's DEAD, DEAD, DEAD. - For Arkham Knight to be an actual person and not copout bullshit like the Joker or say Batman going nutty ala Two-Face as The Judge. Also it shouldn't be Azrael either. - The remote claw or something similar. Works so much better than the line launcher. - Return of the triple batarang. - Return of the ultra batclaw - Want to have the Batcave to visit like I can in Origins. Though it looks like it will be Oracle's lair this time. - I kind of don't want to see Batman retire or die. I don't want this to be Dark Knight Rises. I want to see an "end" to the Arkham trilogy but not necessarily Batman. - Hoping the Riddler races aren't tedious and a chore to get through. - All physical challenges can be completed whenever and in any order like in Arkham City. - If we get DLC, I'd like to see Rocksteady take it a step further and make some episodic DLC. So instead of like an epilogue, what I wouldn't mind seeing is a DLC where you are Robin dealing with his side of the story concurrent to Batman's. Nightwing finally gets something to do in his own one (episode 2) since he was kind of shortchanged in the last game. - Batman stop being a dick some of the time and actually show a little vulnerability to his friends. Have him show them how much they mean to him. - Want to take the Batmobile up to the gates of Arkham Asylum and maybe even Wayne Manor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted March 28, 2014 Author Share Posted March 28, 2014 Good list TheVileOne. Particularly agree with the return of the Triple Batarang, Ultra Batclaw and better treatment by Batman to his allies. Forgot to add to my list that I'd welcome a return to Arkham Asylum where it all began. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGFanJay Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Got Blackgate for XBLA for review today and I loved it quite a bit. While the graphics aren't too hot, and the Arkham gameplay seems a tad...stilted in 2.5D, I still love it more than the Origins game itself.

TheVileOne Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 It was a decent DLC. I'd put it above Quinn's Revenge a little more in terms of playable content. Nothing mindblowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty J. Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 But does it make the main game playable? It doesn't patch anything that hasn't already been patched, if that's what you're asking. The DLC is good. Encountered no bugs or glitches. The game has a great start but falls back in it's old pattern after the first half hour. Which basically means more of the same with a new gimmick or two. Then again,that was Origins in a nutshell; more of the same with a few new things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raziel Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Don't like how they changed the Harley model so much from the last two games, other than that, fucking AWESOME. And I'm pretty sure its obivious who Arkham Knight is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted May 21, 2014 Author Share Posted May 21, 2014 I prefer the Scarecrow voice actor from Batman: Arkham Asylum. Comic book spoiler related to the Arkham Knight: Not going to happen but I'd welcome the Arkham Knight taken from Grant Morrison's Three Ghosts of Batman story.

Lamp, broken circa 1988 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 why is the tagline "be the batman"isn't that why the other three games exist or were those games, like, "stand next to the batman" "hang out with the batman" "first round's on the batman" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
