Coletti Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Already had Arkham Knight but weirdly enough it's a British disc (birthday present for my son from my stepmom) so hey I'll take a new digital US copy. Shit, anything I own digital please, I take my system on work trips and don't like bringing any discs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 12 minutes ago, Craig H said: I never played Darksiders 2 and only heard it was nowhere near as good as Darksiders. For Darksiders 3, the only thing I heard about it is that it's nothing like Darksiders. But hell, it's a free download, so why not. Same thing with Arkham Knight. I only ever played the first game in that series. I assume the rest of the series is solid. Arkham City was amazing and has one of the best boss fights of any game in it. Knight is good, although it's a little TOO Batmobile heavy and the boss fights were bland and uninspired, especially after WB Games made a fucking fantastic series of boss fights in Origins (even if the game is bugged to hell and not likely to get a current gen re-release) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tromatagon Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I await a whole new group of people talking about how the Batmobile was fucking bullshit and ruins the game. Totally true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assfax Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 There's this part early on where you have to drag the batmobile onto some rooftops and take it from roof to roof so you can rev up some generator. GARBAGE Doesn't Batman have some flying G.I. Joe bubbles or something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 It was such a beautiful looking game that was so close to greatness if not for the overreliance on the batmobile. Shame. I was looking around what Rocksteady was up to and they're pretty tight lipped though there are a handful of articles pointing towards another Batman game or at least WB Studios working on another Batman game.

Tromatagon Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 (edited) I'd actually love for them to do a game where detective and traversal shit took more of a backseat to combat and fucking people up Like a Ninja Turtles game or something. Something that uses the tag mechanic from the Arkham games Edited August 28, 2019 by Tromatagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Oh shit, now I think I remember talk about Arkham Knight and the Batmobile in it. Doesn't the Batmobile control all weird and shit, like it's a hovercraft or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Yeah. The entire Batmobile as a tank concept sucked a lot of balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

assfax Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 If it was just driving and occasionally doing Starfox 64 all range mode shooting galleries it'd be fine. But you gotta drag that sumbitch inside buildings and use it as an 11000 lb key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coletti Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 It wouldn't be so bad if three previous games hadn't perfected flying through the skies as THE fucking Batman. It would be like if the next Spider-Man game makes you roam around NYC in the Spider-Tank or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimbra Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I already got Darksiders 1 & 2 free from PS+ and didn't play either of them so I'll throw 3 on the pile of shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Hanger Posted August 29, 2019 Author Share Posted August 29, 2019 I've had Arkham Knight since about 3 months after it came out, when Amazon did the obscenely early sale on the digital-code version. I am just not wired right for that Harley predator sequence and have never taken the time to go back and try again on easy. I want the story, I want the fighting and some of the predator stuff, but playing Batmobile Battlezone was so obnoxious, and I'm so bad at the much-more-complicated-than-City Predator sequences, that it's never been something I could prioritize.

Raziel Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 My biggest takeaway of Knight was that the story was on the good side, and there's a lot of good stuff, but they tried to do WAAAAYYY too much and cram way too much into the game, where a lot of the stuff doesn't fit the narrative.

J.T. Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I started downloading Hitman before bailing for work. I have a feeling that the stress of Comp play in D2 on Sunday will cause me to rage quit and then I will start playing Hitman and get hooked.

odessasteps Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I'm now biding my time playing NMS until the RDR2 update finally drops next week. I think I barely played the last couple free games I got from Gold, which I think were NHL19 and PGA19 (or whatever they are called these days).
