Poll of the Day > I never get tired of the Arkham games.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Especially Asylum and City. I've played them at least once a year since they launched and they just never get old.

Origins is cool too, I like to play that around Christmas.

Knight is.. ok. Certainly not bad but there's something about it that just lacks the charm of Asylum and City.
---

Origins annoyed me for some reason. Like, I got to the first boss fight and the controls just feel clunky enough to not enjoy it. Certainly not like I did with the previous games. Havent touched Knight yet despite owning it for years.
---

Yeah Origins definitely isn't as "polished" as the first two, but it was made by a different studio so that's understandable.

I had no problems playing it, never even encountered any game-ruining glitches lol.
---

I own them all and have not played them. Really need to give them a chance.

You are on fire today

Anyway I agree with this for all the batman games. It sucks because I liked the graphics and open world style the games had, but I couldn't get into them because of the controls

Hoping the Spiderman game fixed that issue

I love the series, but I have yet to get through Origins. I want to, but...I can't.

i can't get through knight because of the fucking bat mobile dude

i did end up encountering one, but someone had figured out another insane glitch that you could use to bypass it if you had the skeeeeelz

which i did

I didn't play Origins, but Asylum was the best imo.

Plus it didn't have as many of those stupid riddler trophies.

Asylum and City is obviously the best.
I enjoyed Origins and its flaws are understandable because it was made by another studio.
Knight was a missed opportunity. It could've been Rocksteady's crownjewel but they somehow fucked it up.

Not to say I hated it, it just wasn't as good as the others were.
I've played the crap out of the rest of the series but I haven't even bothered to do the New game+ yet in Knight.

Yeah I don't hate the Batmobile, but I do find that it's a bit overused.

I'm still pissed about Deathstroke.

Say what you will about Origins, AT LEAST DEATHSTROKE HAD A REAL FIGHT

Overused is an understatement

I always forget how short Arkham Asylum is. I beat it in like three days (just playing through the story). But then again I was on vacation last week so I had a little extra time.

Onto City now. I know it's the popular choice for favorite game in the series, but I still like Asylum the most. I just love the creepy atmosphere and the more focused story.

But that's what makes City great, too, is that it's so different. It doesn't just retread the same thing.
---

I'm stuck on City at a late game part where you have to get past 50 snipers while attempting to rescue Talia from the Joker

I deleted Origins in favor of Diablo 3: Ultimate edition for the PS3. That download took 2 days. I had to delete Web of Shadows, Arkham Origins, Fairy Tale Fights, and Dungeon Siege 3.

I saw the Knight sale for $9.99 but I didn't buy it and forgot about it. LOL. I bought Arkham City for $36. I heard the bat mobile missions were annoying and exhausting some players. I did finish Asylum.
---

Arkham City is my favorite game of all time. Asylum is almost as good too, really like the creepy and dark atmosphere. Origins is fine- its playable, but only to people who really enjoyed the first two games. I almost finished it but never actually completed the story because I lost interest.

Haven't played Knight, don't have a PS4. But I'll definitely get it by the end of this year.
---

Asylum and City are one of the best games of last gen.
Origins is good as well but not quite as good as the previous two. Its story is on par if not better than them though.
Knight is hit or miss. Playing as Batman is still as good as before but the Batmobile is what turns people off most of the time.
I didn't mind it as much but I'd much rather just play as Batman.
---

Asylum> Knight > City > Origins. I never played Blackgate.
---

no need to play. just play spider-man homecoming. combat is similar to that of the games. but spider-man instead of batman and spider-man>batman.

I didn't even know this was a game. Unless you mean Insomniacs Spider-Man that isn't subtitled homecoming, is out next year and has more QTE events than God of War.
---

The only one I ever played was Blackgate. It was alright. Quite short though.

yeah I meant insomniacs spider-man. yeah I had no idea what it was called. just know it has spider-man in it.

I think Arkham Origins is the best one, mainly do to the lack of the "Arkham" focus that the other games seem to have. It just feels like a normal Batman game, with a normal Batman story. I seriously believe that Origins is a work of art, with the large variety of enemies, the winter and Christmas atmosphere, and the awesome story with Joker, Bane, and Alfred.

I will forever not understand how any one cannot like
Arkham Origins. Everything about the game is literally perfect. While I can understand why someone might hate the combat system while I myself didn't really see a problem with it, it is no reason to disregard the awesome story and feel of the game.
