Bought Batman AA and Batman AC today for $5.99 each!

I finaly bought them Dark! Lol downloading them now. I hope they are good. After these downloads, I'll have only 10gb left on my 250gb hard drive. Can't wait to play them. Hope the story is as good as The Dark Knight movie.

Nice red!

Nice!

They are both some of the best games ever created. Arkham City is ranked about the 6th best game to play on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. Asylum is like 12 if i remember rightly.

Play asylum before city so you play in the right order.

Asylum has the better storyline - one which rivals the Last Of Us storyline. Literally, storlines and script writing do not get better than Asylum's.

However, whilst the gameplay was unseen and exceptional in 2009, its not as good as Arkham City, so Arkham City is ultimately the better game as it has a very good storyline (similar to how good the dark knight was) and much better lip sync (which was off in Asylum), graphics, gadgets and combat moves.

Overall, both are really good and you'll love them.

And if anyone doubts these are good games. Look at IGN's list of top rated games, City and Asylum are both there. Hell, look anywhere and you'll see Asylum is 9.1/10 and city is 9.7/10.

^Agreed, played the first level before I had to get off Xbox. Great combat! Can't wait to play these games completely. If I like these which I most likely will, I'm going to get Origins for the PS4.

I love the last of us

Origins isn't on the PS4. Origins isn't anything like as good as AA and AC because it was made a by a different developer. It's still a good game, just doesn't live up to AA and AC's standards.

Arkham Knight will hopefully surpass them on PS4 in 2015.

@Pro, yeah ,Last of Us is pretty much the best game of all time. I still don't think it should be 10/10 though. I mean, it's had so many glitches its unreal.

Wait, Origins was made by a different developer?? Does it tie into the Arkham series?

Supposedly it does, but ultimately it's not really important. Basically, Warner Bros, who published Arkham City for Rocksteady got greedy and decided they wanted an origins story because they want to make arkham yearly release. Rocksteady said no, so they had Warner Bros Montreal (a new studio) copy rocksteady's code from the last two games and make Arkham Origins. So yeah, different developer and thats why its just not as good as the other two.

Arkham Knight will be the third and final game made by Rocksteady, which comes out next year. Its the direct sequel to Asylum and City, so yeah, should be good.

I hear WB montreal are working on a sequel to origins as well. Should be interesting what they do next. Whilst origins wasn't a good batman game, it was still a decent game and the dev has a future.

woah big post.

Big story, lol.

WB just want all the money from the Arkham franchise. They don't care about making good Batman games like rocksteady do.

I hate it when publishers do that. Really screws up franchises.

Who, besides the developer of Origins, will be making batman games in the future after Rocksteady?

Yeah true

NetherRealm Studios made Batman Arkham City: Lockdown and Arkham origins mobile. Both of those are kinda bad mobile games.

WB montreal made origins. Their working on another game now.

Armature Studio made Arkham Origins blackgate which is a half decent PSVita game. It was remade for the PS3 not too long ago.

Ultimately, the best arkham games are the two you have made by rocksteady.

As for the future, WB could get any developer to make an arkham game.

Square Enix still owns about 5% of the Arkham license from when they produced Arkham Asylum. Maybe they can make a game with that. idk.

Is there a big difference in gameplay from AA and AC?

The core gameplay and controls are the same. AC just adds onto what Asylum built.

Hmm, cool. How much have they improved the combat? Not sayin it needs any, just wondering if they tweaked it a lil.

I'll wait for you to check it out. There's so much to explain, lol. Better if you play it yourself after you finish asylum.

Ok, lol just no spoilers.

Ill try to get them as soon as I get a decent gaming pc.

Spoilers are banned anyway unless you use spoiler tag (put it in the rules a few months ago xD )

Lol ok

Lol

I just beat bane on the fist time you meet him. I love boss fights in games. Especially one where you have to figure out the enemy's weakness.

Loved that fight, lol.

Wait until AC when you fight freeze - your in for a show there xD

I like Metal Gear Solid.

...okay random, lol. Yeah, MGS is really good.
