Asylum? Yes.
City? For the most part yes.
Knight? Parts of it were cool, I guess.

They were fine for what they were at the time but Spiderman really was much better

Yes loved them
City has the best Batman theme

Origins gets left out a lot, I feel compared to Knight also gets more than it's due of shit.
Origins easily has the best story of any of them, and for being basically a standalone DLC quality release, eas a fun enough City .5

Asylum was fantastic.
City was pretty good.
Origins was fantastic too, but not as fantastic as Asylum.
Knight was boring.

Yes
Better than the Spidey knockoff

Asylum was probably more linear, but I think that allows for a tighter story structure. So It's probably my highlight despite lacking a lot of the arguably superior mechanics of City.

City was still very good though.

Didn't play Origins. I heard the PC port was busted so gave it a pass.

Played Knight last year for the first time on PC. Ran perfectly fine.
Some great moments. Mark Hamill does a good job.
But I was so sick to death of all the batmobile sections. I didn't find them fun and the tank boss fights were equally dull.
I'm not really sure how you could incorporate batmobile sections into the game without making things worse, to be honest.

Lot of people shit on Knight, but I'd just rate it a point lower than City. It's not terrible.

Asylum: yup, felt so exciting to *be* Batman
City: a fun, sprawling world, great game
Origins: comfy, very good
Knight: got it for free, wound up dropping it just a couple hours in. It felt different somehow or maybe not different enough. The batmobile was really frustrating. Never felt the need to pick it back up and just moved onto Telltale.

Asylum: Yes until the final boss
City: Okay until the end, which I actually enjoyed more
Origin: I, er, played it, I guess.
Knight: Eh, it was pretty okay. It really should be the definitive end.

In origins they treated black mask as shit, it was a disappointment

Batman Arkham City really makes you FEEL like Batman

>Played Knight last year for the first time on PC
A lot of the problems with Knight came from the PC port and predictable as shit story that everyone with an entry level knowledge of Batman could figure out.

Batman Arkham Knight really makes you FEEL like the Batmobile.

City is one of my favorite games of all time and is on my 9x9. Asylum was great, but I love the feel of City just a tad more. Origins was good just a little unmemorable coming of the heels of City. And as people have already said Knight was good but dragged down by the batmobile section.

If Asylum had City's bosses it'd easily be the best Batman game. As it stands, it's merely a great Batman game and City is pretty good too although I don't think the free roaming aspect suits it as well as, say, Spider-Man's gameplay does.

Was greatly disappointed in Knight

Overhyped and underperforming? Sounds like my wife amirite?

They were all fine.
City was the best one by far and while Knight dragged a lot with all of the Batmobile shit and had issues like the Jason Todd reveal being pathetically easy to figure out for comic fans and sort of nonsensical for people who aren't familiar with Jason it was at least decent.

>That RP thread we had on the night Arkham Knight released
Good times. Might be my favorite Yea Forums memory

Asylum was pretty good.
City was also pretty good.
Origins I got bored of within literally the first ten minutes, I might have suffered from Batman fatigue by then though.
Never even tried Knight.

I appreciated the way they tried to fit in all major character in a nice and iconic way - albeit with some missteps (Penguin having a bottle in his eye was just fucking bizarre)

Arkham Knight Riddler is the best Riddler.
He has the best character arc out of anyone in the series.

The one that makes race tracks? I don't think that qualifies as a riddle.

I'm still baffled at Batman's plan at the end of the series.
>>Identity has been revealed
>>Throw majority of villains in jail
>>Fake death
>>Keep fighting crime?
I mean, the first civilian who is saved by Batman will say that he's out there and then the whole secret is blown. What was his plan bout faking his death?

Bat Tank ruined it for me. So much of that game was awful. I also hated Zsasz's shit.

I loved them all.
>Asylum
loved that Conroy came back and the light horror aspect of the game.
>City
Kind of annoyed with more joker bullshit, but a better game overall
>Origins
Felt retarded playing this because it wasn't until the Black Mask...unmasking that I realized it was a prequel.
Also, it introduced me to Deathstroke, who is now my favorite DC character.
>Knight
Loved it except for the batmobile parts and the ending. Although I think it could be a great set up for an Arkham game set during Batman Beyond.

I guess most people would just assume it was a copy-cat?
It's implied he's using scarecrow gas to enhance his intimidating persona, but honestly all it would take is one bit of video footage from a security camera to break that illusion.

Exactly. You can chart his deterioration across each game.
>Origins
He's a smarmy, cocky, actually effective hacker/extortionist. He's fit, handsome, has good posture, and actively fucks with Batman purely for his own amusement i.e. Mocking him for dramatically opening doors, making a loud noise to distract him while piloting the Remote Controlled Batarang, etc. He collects data for arguably a good cause and when he's thwarted he doesn't even raise his voice.
>Asylum
Full-blown Riddler. Same cocky attitude, but clearly more obsessive and petty than before. Wears the full suit and still grooms, and bloviates about his own abilities and meager accomplishments whenever he gets the chance. Hates Batman and starts to break down when he closes in on finding every trophy.
>City
Unshaven, skinny, doesn't sleep. He's started putting people in danger now to get to Batman. Goes out of his way to hide 400 fucking trophies in every inch of the city, including in the lairs of the other villains, AND even makes a set to torture Catwoman because he needs to prove that Batman has inferior taste in women. Grandstands just as much, and now actively puts Batman down. He sounds pissed off for the entire game and starts coming unhinged from basically the moment you start solving his riddles, two of which are legitimate death traps that have no solution, and when you cheat them he calls you out for literally doing the singular thing you could do to survive.
>Knight
A literal sewer-dwelling freak who thinks a fucking Hawaiian shirt that he decorated himself constitutes a supervillain outfit and is so desperate to beat Batman at ANYTHING that he's resorted to making racetracks and calling him a moron if he doesn't drive fast.

Don't forget the fact that Knight Riddler builds an entire army of robots just so he can act superior to them and boss them around, and finally resorts to just building a mech suit so he can just beat Batman to death and claim it's an intellectual victory.

See, I just took all that as bad writing. Most Riddler shit in Knight wasn't nearly as tricky as it was in City.

They're two different things.

>played Asylum
>skipped City
>skipped Origins
>played Knight

Fuck you guys idgaf.

This. One of the biggest draws for Origins for me was Black Mask being the main villian and the six assassins, then they made it Joker wank. If he was teased, like "hey guys reference to the joker but he's not in the game" I'd have been so much happier, but no, front and fucking center again.

I agree with Knight. If they'd just taken the Batmobile sections of the game out I feel it'd rate a bit higher on people's lists. Still doesn't fix the predictable-as-shit story though.

Knight was my favorite

I enjoyed Harley's ass.

>Asylum
100%ed it
>City
100%ed it, though I found the main plot fairly boring at times but the side quests were worth it
>Origins
I was a little burnt out by city when I played. The plot was equally as bad as City’s. I liked the gameplay changes and the detective mode. Decent game though.
>Knight
Started and got to about the first boss before I said fuck this and dropped it. The bat mobile and tank sections were trash enough I had no interest in playing it

I was peeved they killed joker but it didn’t matter since they forced him in the games again anyway
Like what’s even the point

yeah your wife sucks and doesn't do a good job we all know from personal experience

you didn't finish it then
he fakes his death

He fakes his death, but he comes back X years later as scarecrow enhanced batman. In the 100% ending. So the guy you were replying to was correct.

Well I got up to Origins and lost interest mid fight with Deathstroke and turned it off, i was pushing myself the entire time to continue and stopped then and there because I got hyped to fight him but it was a shitty fight mechanic and the previous gameplay made me feel nothing, I don't know if it was me but i just couldnt bring myself to care about that game. Knight might be good but i saw others play it and i hardly have the interest.

My main comic/cartoon style game I'm waiting for atm is another Transformers game like War and Fall of Cybertron. Still hoping, I think theres some buzz about ones coming.

I got all the games at a serious discount on a steam sale. I then tried to play the games back-to-back.

Loved Arkham
Loved City, though the gameplay for Catwoman was poorly explained and it took me longer than it should've to understand her mechanics
I stopped playing after saving the Joker in Origins because I got bored. Also wasn't a fan of the change in visual style.
Haven't even installed Knight.

I don't understand how Asylum gets the most praise. It has the worst bosses in the series next to Knight tank battles. Exploration for completion was also a pain in the ass and too many grey hallways. I can see the story being tighter and better than the sequels that keep bringing back the Joker for no good reason as the main villain however.

I think Knight is worth playing. But don't bother with all the 100% stuff. Just go through the story at whatever pace you like and finish it. There are definitely moments in there worth experiencing in my opinion.

Best open-world superhero game comin' on through.

i saw those often and obnoxious tank fights when another person played so i am skeptical.

yes, but I hate how it basically premiered Harley's newer designs.

This

I actually bought Fall recently to play through the story again, and somehow there’s still a few people that play online.

Tank fights are definitely dull, but they won't take you much time if you blast through them.
Again, don't bother with the challenges or Riddler shit. Unless you REALLY want a few bland minutes of Catwoman gameplay which I wouldn't recommend.

Smash out the story and then uninstall. Then go watch the 100% ending on youtube.

Both the gameplay and story in Knight were such trash. Even Hamill's perfromance couldn't save it as much as it kinda drove me to try to keep going.

So Asylum had the best story, City had the best bosses, what did the other two have that would contribute to create a perfect Batman game?

asylum and city where great
knight was shit with terrible unresponsive controls (ps4)
origin was boring

Ye

With the mask off, the mystery and myth of Batman was undone, no one feared him any longer, which was a big part of his impact

So he faked his death and became something else to reignite that

Origins had my all-time favourite Batsuit. Loved the padded body-armour look and the mighty gauntlets and boots

I'll agree that Knight overused the batmobile, but I still found roaring around the city in it real satisfying

Do people think moments like this are ''out of character''? Because this shows a more human side to Batman and I like that

it's from a event where because of a magic artifact batman got supermans powers and superman became powerless
but it had a nasty side effect
batman became increasingly militant and paranoid and more brutal
while superman became depressed
oh and the third one effected was silver banshee she got her wish to be human but started to age rapidly.

arkham knight has the best combat system

too bad they didn't include male-ninja fighters from origins

I really didn't like how reliant they were on The Joker. Like holy shit, do you really need the exact same villain in 3/4 games with a huge presence in the 4th?

Remember when Rocksteady forgot Hugo Strange? And that Ras Al Ghul was revealed to be the mastermind in City out of nowhere, and you already beat him halfway through the game?

This and Infamous 2

Yeah
It was stupid

Ninjas are in the Ra's DLC.

Arkham Asylum and City came from a the final era of soul in games. The amount of genuine love into them is so apparent and it feels great to play. Origins and Knight feel tacked on

I enjoyed Arkham City it’s the only one I’ve played okease

I 100% all of them except Origins, because the """""""enigma'""""" quest glitched out on my ps3.
Shit game.

I remember thinking the stuff with the joker virus was dumb as hell.

Hell yeah!

Arkham Asylum being my favorite
