"Hi everyone. I’m very happy to announce that some of our publisher friends are feeling in the giving mood and want to share great savings on some top-tier titles, including Darksiders 2 (a whopping 75% off), Batman: Arkham City and the truly epic Dishonored!"
Everyone knows Twisted Metal... I mean literally everyone! Whether it is simply a childhood classic for you, or one of the worst, mind-corrupting disgraces to entertainment you can think of, you've at least heard of this iconic title.
GB: "With this feature, we take a look back at the incredible Batman: Arkham City with the aim of analyzing it from the perspective of a 2024 release."
Reviews are finally out for Marvel's Spider-Man 2, and the game's Metacritic review score means Marvel still hasn't toppled DC.
The Arkham games are largely excellent, a shame they are being followed up by that god awful looking suicide squad game.
All 4 Arkham games are just amazing...
With the Gotham Knights turning out sub par, hope the Suicide Squad fails as well... So that both Rocksteady and WB Montreal goes back to creating good single player DC games ...
A batman beyond game maybe?
Having the game fail would make it harder for them to get funding for their next game, please don't wish this on them. They already delayed the game a whole year after backlash, so we still have to wait and see how it will turn out.
You can't expect a game to match 96-94 meta apple for apple. Different era and different gen. No need to diminish either game's achievement. Arkham City and Spiderman 2 are both amazing sequels that improved upon their already incredible first parts.
To back that up, there are major websites that adjusted their review scales.
IGN used to have a 100 point system; now it's a 10 point system. I remember GameSpot back in 2004 was razed for giving Halo 2 a 9.4 when IGN gave it like a 9.7 or 9.8
Arkham Asylum was great, but when City came out... wow what a total overhaul that was. Nothing has had that type of night/day difference in scope and scale since.
SM2 is looking to be a great game in itself. Definitely an upgrade over the previous entries. Just from the opening battle with sandman, it gives me god of war 2 vibes with how that one opened with the battle with colossus of rhodes. That is still one of my favorite sequels of all time.
And right on cue, here comes the downplaying of Insomniacs masterpiece, not gonna work, this game is gonna be beast in success.
'' here comes the downplaying of Insomniacs masterpiece''
You know that train is never late.
I like to have physical copies but damn, ill never find Darksiders 2 that cheap for disc version. Digital it is!
Man, these sales are definitely great. i wanted to pick Darksiders 2 a physical version, but i'm with what ^^^ this guy said
I want to thank the article writer for adding "(EU)" to the title. Im usually confused on who's gettin what....if I had a cookie for how many times ive been fooled thinking something was for US and was really for EU I'd be a fat MF.
My advice is, don't buy Darksiders, it's a bad game.
Spend that money on ps+ subscription and wait for it to be free.
FFS Sony I don't have time for all these games as it is...... sigh...
