VideoGamer: "Ultimately, this is like a cover song done by a band you're quite fond of. It may never be better than the original, but it's a great addition."
Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League is almost here, but I can't revisit the best Arkhamverse game on PS5 without sacrificing quality.
Not a fan of Orgins. Blame it on the absence of Conroy & Hamill. Blame it on the lack of atmosphere compared to Asylm. Hell blame it the devs thst dicked over Wii U owners like me that purchased the game only for support be dropped as a thank you to me. It's better than Knight but that's not saying much. I don't care for that entry either.
tbh buying a game like that for WiiU should’ve been an obvious non-purchase when it existed on better hardware.
Origins is amazing..
my favorite Batman is Batman and Robin on mega drive.. an HD REMASTER of that would still look glorious
I got it launch. Kinda hard to go back. I'm supposed to know they were going to drop support months after the fact. 🤣
You sound like a salty fanboy, that it didn't come to your precious plastic of choice. It's not the developers fault Nintendo continues making underpowered hardware. It's our fault because we keep buying it. Yes I say (we) I'm part of the problem as well.
I have a PS3 and a Wii U. How was I a salty fanboy? I bought the game on the system I wanted it for.
Nah my comment has nothing to do with whether you’d know or not that they’d drop support.
Buying any AAA game of that era for a WiiU you should’ve known you’d be sacrificing graphics and load times.
Smacks of hyperbole to me, talk about clutching at straws to create some drama around PS5!!
Titles like these are designed to get you to come in, go to their comment section and tell them how they're so wrong so they can boost their numbers.
Even though its not the best arkham game in the series, its still an enjoyable game in its own right. What it do really well at though, was the crime investigations scenes. Which imo, were the best of the franchise.
Never played it and recently I've finally tried it via cloud on psn. It's not the best for sure, but it ain't bad either.
Batman: Arkham Origins launched 10 years ago today, and sadly doesn't stand the test of time as well as its predecessors.
I fail to grasp why this title is worse compared to Arkham City (according to the article) as the author didn't provide any argument to explain why aside from that it felt the bigger map compared to Arkham Asylum made the experience less tight.
More importantly, the author seems like he never played Arkham City since he described the game as linear (alongside Asylum).
Despite certain flaws, Batman: Arkham Origins is a splendid entry in the legendary Arkham series and deserves better than being forsaken.
It's the worst of the three in my opinion, but still really enjoyable. Definitely underated and gets far more crap that it deserves.
Should be included with the other Arkham games in the bundle.
I'm honestly enjoying it alot, my first time playing since I just decided to get a Xbox 360 slim for 65$, I cop some other gems too tho, I went into Arkham origins not expecting better than Arkham city but it does deliver plus the guy who voices batman did a good job aiming for the young Bruce impression
so far it's 9+/10 game for me
1.story is much deeper and stronger than both batman main games by far
2.the gameplay is also improved with new moves and gadgets
4.the music is too damn epic remind me of the Dark knight music
5.batman is very badass in this game and who made this game is indeed a real batman fan
he only miss KC voice but who's doing batman voice is doing very great job
6.side mission are much much better it's not even funny
7.this game respect batman enemies
and give you boss fights that are above and beyond batman main games
8.Crime in progress is much better than the lame crime missions in batman AC
you get to fight gangs and dirty cops and drug dealers etc
9.you get better puzzles in this game and other awesome surprises
10. the setting is much better and city feel dark and hopeless
i could go on but i will spoil the game by doing that
like i said
For me more of the same is fine. There were so many years without any good Batman games. Now in the last few years we have 3 good Batman games.
Awesome! can't wait for my collectors edition.
I must be the only one who thinks this game sucks.. Just because it has the name batman and features much in the same as arkum city I personally have not been impressed with this game..
I think it is fantastic.
It refines so many areas of the game and the boss fights are simply fantastic. The best the series has seen. I swear people are looking for flaws in it because it isn't Rocksteady which is an insult to WB Game Studios who have done an excellent job.
Everything feels just as naturally implemented as it did in Rocksteady's games and I actually think that Gotham in Origins has a lot more to do than in City. And all of it feels more fleshed out. Side activities don't feel throw away and there is a lot more resistance for Batman to encounter than before. There is rarely a place where he is truly safe. It does feel like he is being hunted.
It also has a really good story behind it that makes it fit into the series. If you are going to do a prequel this is how it should be done. It is more of the same but how is that a bad thing when many aspects of the same have seen subtle improvements.
