In post-story mode, go to the museum. In one of the hallways, you will find a trio of guards, one armed. They are talking about what will happen next. One of them remarks, "What could happen next? Arkham Land? Arkham Country? Big-ass Arkham World?". Good job, Yahtzee. Good job.
To be fair, Arkham Planet sounds fucking amazing.
They'd probably have to start adding JLU members to villains just to keep it interesting...it's still sounding amazing.
Arkham Virgo Supercluster would take you a while to complete I would bet.
Protocol 10 there is bring in the Joker Star and blow up the planet. And batman has to fly the batwing and fire the bat torpedoes into the Joker thermal exhaust port with the force, I mean money.
The scary thing is that comic books tend to end up with several alternate universes...meaning it really DOESN'T have to stop at Arkham Universe.
It would have the not just batman but the justice league
There's actually a dialogue between some of Penguin's men in the Museum who suggests the idea of potential sequels such as "Arkham Planet" etc :P As if Rocksteady actually are fully aware of this themselves and merely being ironic about it
"Batman and the argonauts" was the funniest thing I've heard today
@Watermelon Meme Here If you look up Jason and the Argonauts you'll probably understand
@@PhyreI3ird no I got the reference. It was just funny
Nintendo has written themselves into a corner. That's funny. As if Nintendo gives a shit about the writing in Mario games.
ryallenquake Heh, that's funny and very true
To be fair to them though, neither does the rest of the planet
Krebons1200 Right, it's not bad on Nintendo, it's that no shits are given is what's funny
And now we have Mario Odyssey. Watch, the next Mario will be Epic Mario :P
I will say that I thought the fact the each villain owned a different part of the city and it bleeds into the atmosphere, as in Two-Faces area being centered around the court and the Jokers industrial play land, was pretty interesting. It made the map more fun to navigate and it was interesting to see the rivalries and alliances of each villain.
Also the territory fight of two-face, penguin and joker
How can joker pay for a space program? It's simple. he gets Lex Luthor or Ra'a Al Ghul to do it.
Bit late in the day to say this but the obvious way is "He steals it"
Ra'a al ghul died in the season of infamy dlc for arkham knight
"If you're like me: Handsome, talented and secretly longing for death..."
Best line I've heard all year.
I think City was better than Asylum. They improved the combat, there was more enemy variety in both combat and stealth sections, the story was MUCH better, the boss fights were better (especially Mr Freeze, damn that fight is fun), and it was nice to have some extra playable characters.
I would say City is better than Asylum in most ways (notably the boss fights and the gadget puzzles, and City is a really good example of a good sandbox game) but it's a little weaker in the story, gadgets felt less useful in combat, and the vast openness of the map makes Riddler puzzles far easier to just see where they are on the map instead of the player working the riddles out. They are both really good games and it's more subjective to whether which one thinks is better than the other. It's a bit like asking someone whether they liked Portal or Portal 2 better.
@@jcohasset23 Asylum had no story whatsoever. It was just Joker has a plan and you have to figure out what it is. Here they do that in Arkham City with you having to figure out the big bad guys plan but it's on a larger scale and there is also a central theme of Batman's relationship with the Joker that pays off in the end.
There's nothing subjective saying that the story was more compelling and had more character Focus in Arkham City
@J Cohasset Your statement about gadgets is objectively wrong. How on Earth were gadgets more useful in combat in Asylum? You literally had a batarang and batclaw? In City, you have batclaw, ice grenades, batarangs, electric shot and explosive gel. All these serve a purpose in combat. Ice grenade freezes an enemy in place for about 20 seconds. Electric charge with send armored thugs flying, explosive gel and knock down multiple enemies and so can batarangs. Batclaw can send you flying across the room to knock a single target but gain positioning. This combined with Free-flow focus to make them more powerful makes the gadgets objectively more useful and serve a much greater purpose in City. Every aspect of Asylum's combat and stealth was improved in City. Whitelight has a video that goes through all of this in detail and makes it very obvious how City improved basically everything.
"I don't expect that line to be pinned on the Special Edition"
Oh, if only Yahtzee knew.
what do you mean?
mysterymastermind175 There are so many needless quotes and review scores on the box for the Game of the Year edition that they didn't even have any room to put the title on the box in a noticeable location. Seriously, see for yourself.
static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/0/40/2310463-bac_goty_360pftfront.jpg
It's a wonder that every reviewer that ever lived wasn't quoted.
*****
I counted 4 quotes...
Only four? The formatting and emphasis made it look like so much more, then. XD
rmccaw7 4 quotes is still a lot, considering you can't even fit the title of your game in a noticeable location!
“Boss fights not quite as crap now.”
Arkham universe sounds like a grittier version of that Lego Batman game that had a bunch of Superman and Green Lantern villains in it.
+l0stndamned Why is it called Arkham Universe? I thought the city was called Gotham...
Fernando Langalú The franchise is the Arkham 'verse.
+Fernando Langalú Because the games aren't cannon so they're the Arkham verse
1:13 But at the end of the game, Jok--- *Gets gunned down by spoiler police*
...er is Clayface. Fuck me right? :)
A. Schutte nope...he's dead at the end
Alexander Hamilton **Spoiler Police bust through the door**
Doctorwhofan451 Um...that's not the ending I remember.Or are you giving people a false ending so that you don't spoil the real ending?
jd johnson I don't know what you're talking about. SPOILERS (though the game is 4 years old by now)
The Joker DOES die and it turns down for the second half of the game, it was actually Clayface pretending to be him.
Well, I am handsome, talented, and secretly longing for death, so I guess Yahtzee and I aren't so different after all...
31 times completed, I never get tired of it!!
BECAUSE IM BATMAN!!
"When you go straight sandbox you lose control of a certain amount of structure" Why did Rocksteady not listen to Yahtzee? Arkham Knight could have actually been good. They did exactly what he said would happen and wrote themselves into a corner and then had to justify the huge city in Knight by forcing you into those ridiculous batmobile sections.
BJMcB92 I wonder how much of his review will be about the low quality of the PC version...
Given your hatred for the series I find it ironic that a COD game was advertised for a reduced rice before this video.
what do you want as a youtube partner you dont deside which adds you allow them to show to your audience they pick which suites the vieuwer best or what makes him most likely to purchase. besides the people at the escapist deside it they cant give 2 shits about what one of their workers/writers think
niels718 I am fully aware of this. I was just saying that it was ironic.
He doesn't hate it. He is known for always giving the bad side of games.
***** No, I'm pretty sure he does hate it. Nowhere near the hate he feels for Thief 4 though but he still probably hates it for what it's doing to the industry.
>a reduced rice
Was it brown rice? I heard that rice is very healthy.
Right, so what I got from this was this games still good, more boobs and do the side missions before the main ones. Cheers! ^^
i personally loved the game, i feel like the developers really put their hearts into developing the characters in this series and you get this sense of what goes on inside all the bad guys heads.
Who knew the easter egg that the last scene of the game *SPOILER ALERT* where Batman carries Joker in his arms is the same as the opening scene of the game where the camera is looking at a painting of Cain carrying a dead Abel in his arms.
Fuckin RAD.
I did because some video spoiled it for me (not this one).
Adam Bomeisl And I did cuz I accidentally restarted the game after finishing it and was totally blown away. O_o
You mean the painting that we stared at for like... half a minute before getting to play? Yeah. I noticed that immediately.
***** omg i played the game for 2 years now and just now thought of that!
Saint Of AwesomeMess It is also very similar to page in death of the family comic, where Batman carrys Jason Todd's body out of the broken building.
The boss fightes may have been decent in arkham city, but the battle with Mr.Freeze was just epic
The justification for Strange being able to swing his arkam city thing can be explained partly with hidden secrets in the previous game- the "spirit of arkam" messages you find can be discovered to be made by the Warden himself, and if you break down a wall in his office you can find a secret room with his plans for the city, and his plans to become mayor, which he does between games (somehow) but Warden Sharpe is basically a puppet for strange. There is more to it but that can be found in some of the labyrinthian plot details of arkham city which I am not going to wade through
Well the detective vision problem was fixed with the jammer sin several parts.
And it also reduces your vision while it's active.
Good game. Good ending.
I genuinely don't understand how anyone thinks that Arkham Asylum is better. AA is pretty linear and the story that you're stapled to isn't really that good as far as Batman stories go. Arkham City was a huge upgrade. More creative boss fights, more gadgets to play around with, and more side missions. I agree that bigger isn't always better, but this is the exception to that idea.
i just unsubscribed. this guy was funny. i have luvd his sarcasm.
but now he's a 'bitch' and you know what?
HE FUCKING WELL KNOWS IT.
i luv sarcasm but i despise contrived bulldung. i actually luv all the oldie games he likes. system shock and deus ex, thief, etc etc.
but now that brown streak of diarhetic shite sliding down the bridge of his nose is just a bit much to handle.
[M16s; claymores; big bombs: BIG BOOBS: al qaeda... i'm bored now]
Not really because the open world in City is just there and you just run/glide from one area to the next not really paying attention the empty lifeless city, and Asylums was more focused on dark, wherefore City tried too many villains, as well as the gadgets were fine but the game was like "Throw this here!" but yes the boss fights and side missions were improved but Asylum is still the better game.
elliot wakeman There didn't seem to be THAT much dead space in the open world. The random gangs scattered throughout the open world made things more interesting, and having to interrogate thugs who were in cahoots with The Riddler in order to find out where certain trophies were was a genius way to get you involved in these random gang fights. Plus there was never a point where I was zipping through the air, using that grappling hook accelerator, and dive bombing on random groups of thugs where I thought "Meh, this is a little boring..."
Narred Darr I didn't think it was physically possible to type something that sounded THAT British/Cockney.
You go bro.
Troy Wullbrandt But overtime it does, I mean I've played it once and I can't play it over again because of the big open city and also the punches and kicking sounds were dumbed down a bit and the random gang fights don't really have anything to them. Also Arkham Asylum had a more original batman story than City.
Funny he doesn't mention the main story quality like he did with Arkham Asylum. Because AC was better and the statuesque was/has changed... forever.
He did mention it! And said it was more cohereint(sorry if I butchered that word)
According to Yahtzee, if he doesn’t mention it in the review, that means it’s good.
This is one of Yahtzee's better episodes of Zero Punctuation. I haven't gotten around to playing my copy much, I'm determined to play through on the hardest difficulty first.
Man, I miss 2012
My favorite Arkham game ever, with Asylum close behind and Knight a distant third.
2:55
Well thank you!
I try... :)
One thing in this Yahtzee review worth mentioning is how he said buying games new is good to the developers...
I would've expected Yahtzee of all people to realize that cutting content in the effort to try and resell it later is the work of shitsucking, greedy-as-a-motherfucker publishers and really has no effect on developers at all.
Sorry, surely I'm not the only one who found that annoying.
yeh. i thought he was fucking joking. i mean, whether i buy used or new i still have to hand out cash for fkn add ons/ DLCs and a shitload of other crap that i often am not interest3ed in anyway but sometimes i have to know what resul;ts from such and such a DLC sooooo
I'M FUCKING FORCED TO BUY THE WANKING FUCKING THING TO LINE THE POCKETS OF THESE GREEDY BASTARDS WHO- AWWWWWWWWWWW, WORKED EVER SO HARD ON A KNOCKED UP BETA VERSION OF A GAME AND THEN DROP DLCS ON US OR FUCKIN TWATTING BASTARDING SEASON PASSES AFTER WE HAVE ALREADY SPENT £60 ON A FKN GAME .
yahtzee? i got no respect for you now. what difference does it make if a game is no longer played? should it be forced to remain on the owner's shelf gathering dust for all time JUST SO THE DEVS CAN WHINGE ABOUT HOW HARD LIFE IS & PEOPLE WITH NOT ENOUGH CASH TO BUY NEW SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO PLAY GAMES AT ALL BECAUSE THEY ARE SOMEHOW UNDESERVING OF THE ELITE HIGHER WAGE EARNING CLASSES?? IS HE A THATCHERITE NOW?
yahtzee is a royal twat.
know why?
cos up to 3 yrs ago i had money and a cracking PC but then i lose work and there is no way i can afford to upgrade my PC so i buy a fucking console AND THERE IS NO WAY IN HEAVEN OR HELL OR WHEREVER i am buying NEW BETA games for the present price. not happening.
hey yachtshe? [ yes, i said yachtshe cos he's a girl and sniffs men's jockstraps in his spare time like the corrupt british game reviewers - believe me, i dont think there is a nation like britain that is so corrupt when the reviwers take a huge wad of cash to give shit games 99%, etc knowing full well the game is shit], who's arsecrack have you collected the shitstains from recently? come on... you can own up. your book was shite and bleh so you're sucking cock like the rest of the brit 'professional' reviewers now?
i will ALWAYS BUY used and if they somehow stop us from doing that? i will get it illegally. i refuse to back down on this.
yahtzeee? subscription removed. fuck you, you middle class wanker.
"I would've expected Yahtzee of all people to realize that cutting content in the effort to try and resell it later is the work of shitsucking, greedy-as-a-motherfucker publishers"
He's said exactly that before in other reviews. And that comment in this video is blatantly, extremely-obviously sarcastic.
"It's possible they're saving that for DLC, but anyone who pulls that shit deserves to have their hands cut off and sold back to them for 1200 Microsoft Points." -Deux Ex: HR review
Jake Dubusker He does seem to have mellowed a bit i cant remember the last time he said the game is spunk garble wee wee or something as bad as that
No, spunkgargleweewee isn't just a term for something he doesn't like, he gave it an official definition and everything. "Spunkgargleweewee" is when a game is aggressively linear and railroading, your contribution to the plot is negligible, and it tends to be about a massively powerful army being "threatened" by an inferior foe with vastly overstated resources.
He doesn't like things like Borderlands and Halo, but he even says outright that you can't accuse them of being spunkgargleweewee because they're organic and the plot is driven by their actions.
Also, go to the escapist website, he got brutal on Sacred 3.
so is it okay to but a game pre-owned when its half a decade old? something tell me its gonna be hard getting a brand new copy unless you go on ebay so the pre-owned buying of games is inevitable, i mean i doubt i will find a brand new copy of prince of persia for gamecube
Yahtzee is, of course, right in many of the aspects he's ejecting, but you CAN play sidemissions after the main story.
This game and skyrim got my game of the year awards for 2011.
No Deus Ex Human Revolution? : (
Justin Stone there were a lot of good games out that year, for me personally my favorite was arkham city
Justin Stone didn't play it.
Justin Stone haven't played it
I bought pre owned woot!
I miss the days when pop culture was aimed at teenage boys. Seriously, what do teenagers like these days? Everything is so lame and pathetic.
The people in the generation before you thought the exact same things about the media you enjoyed as a teen. Congrats on becoming a cliche
Sim City, Sim Earth, Sim Ant?
This game is cool and all, but the riddler trophies are fucking insane ridiculous busy work, 99% of the time with games I tend to go for 100% because I have no life like that, but with this I couldn't even give a shit it's really not worth it
Yeah the Arkham games do like to have more padding than the cells that hold most of its villains.
Con Cahill
You just won the internet
Con Cahill YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That wall will have a lot of controversy in 4 years.
0:29 you mean like the female characters in this very game?
Just like a real cat! :D
Which side missions get locked after the story ends? On my second play through I'm pretty sure I did ALL the side missions after the main story and had no problem.
I would like to know too.
Sorry…but lies…lies I tell ye…the game shits on arkham asylum…The scarecrow levels were matched by those spacey flight-levels from that dude who trains batman in the recent trilogy…and remember the croc level in the sewer from Asylum? No? Well it was shit…Arkham city was awesome…Arkham asylum is it's Danny Devito Twin (with all the same genes, I'll grant you…just expressed in a sparse, inspired A for effort kind of way…but still achieving a C- in the exam)...and all the baddies (once the game was completed) ended up in piss-poor groups of three who got their asses kicked like a white-boy in the ghetto asking dealers for pseudo-ephedrine…so, in short, to even imply that Asylum was somehow better, is as intellectually dishonest as a creationist holding up a banana, talking about it's design and concluding 'thus god'.
do you not realize that he jokes? all his reviews are just 5 minutes loaded with humour.even ''good'' ones
Yeah, my response was also in the theme of Yahtzee...
smeechdog Nope, he didn't use punctuation.
Never once in the video does he imply that AA is better.
Мусе Тарекегн "AA was more coherent while Arkham city just splurges all over the place…here's no room for anything as wonderfully indulgent as the scarecrow bits from last time" - edited because I was unnecessarily harsh at the end.
It should be mentioned that in reality all of the sidequests remain available after the main story so I'm not sure what Yahtzee did wrong.
I agree when Yahtzee says that you should completely the storyline partly, up to a certain point. I remember when doing sidequests I had only one Titan container left in A Fragile Alliance. It was in the Iceberg Lounge but unfortunately I had already completed the story mission there. So the Iceberg Lounge, save for the lobby, was closed off for good.
Bah, Arkham Asylum had cringe inducing dialogue and its story was flat. Arkham City has excellent dialogue and a much better plot.
... In his pants? Who doesn't wear pants in public?
"Pants" to British people is underpants to everyone else.
NinjaGidget What.
... Well, either way, who doesn't wear underpants in public?
The joke is that Batman looks like he's wearing black briefs over his grey tights.
NinjaGidget I knew that before I first commented, dear. I was trolling.
We need some punctuation mark to designate sarcasm. Apologies. You've doubtless seen comments on this site that might explain my taking your comment seriously.
At 3:53, the "No, really, I meant to do that," that is very cat-like. When cat's do stupid stuff, they just walk away like they meant to do it.
4:45 - which missions get locked off?
The Hush Side quest, you actually have to do that during the story to finish it ( it progresses after certain points in the game) the other ones (Bane, Mr. Freeze etc.) Don't
i have never had that, i have done the hush missions after the story before
It's happened to me, other than that the others you can do at anytime
fair enough, just never had it happen to me, but owell
Neroamee AlucardX no it isnt being locked. when I played the game the first time I actually have not met Azrael and i did not find the Hush mission. after I finished the game I walktrought-ed where I am supposed to go and found both (ok for Azrael it was a bitch because I had to enter and exit a few million times to get him to appear)
I personally thought they fixed detective mode. By taking away navigation markers and making things more blurry with distance I found myself using it only 10-20% of the time as opposed to the 70-80% I spent on Asylum.
I SAW THIS GAME IN A BARGAIN BIN FOR 5 EUROS AND I BOUGHT IT AND IT WAS GOOD!!! DIDN'T REALLY BOTHER WITH ALL THAT SIDE STUFF AFTER I'D FINISHED THE MAIN STORY, THOUGH!!!!!!!
WHY ARE WE SHOUTING?! I MEAN, I DON'T DISAGREE WITH YOU OR ANYTHING, BUT MAYBE LET'S USE OUR INSIDE VOICES!!!
WHAT?
Muted Redead
NOW I'M EVEN MORE CONFUSED I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT WE WERE LIVING IN THE YEAR 2015!!!
2016
2018
Yahtzee explaining what the hell happened to when DC launched the New 52 continuity is nice. I hate the New 52.
Eh? What is wrong with buying pre-owned games? That seems to me less wasteful than buying new copies, and it also helps to establish a healthy after-market for games, which helps encourage buyers of new games, since they know that there will be folks willing to buy them when the new-buyers are done with the games.
agiar2000 new games copies get sold, developers get a hefty cut of the profits ie. more money to make more games, pre owned copies sold, store owner takes ALL the profit and the developer gets nothing. Developers don't make money off pre owned sales and when they don't make money they make games.
An attitude I could have agreed with about the time City came out but given the massive quantities of piss the games publishers have taken with monetisation while pleading poverty, you’ll forgive me if I don’t exactly care if the AAA games industry doesn’t see anywhere near as much of my cash anymore.
Well, it says in the story that Strange had leverage over the mayor and had been allowed to use the tiger guards to arrest people.
Amazing how he nailed the "special box art re-release'. The game of the year edition is cluttered with quotes which just makes it look ugly.
to be fair, Ra's Al Ghul gave Strange all the resources he needed to pull it all off
Batman: Arkham Revelations
Batman: Arkham Reloaded
Batman: Arkham Retribution
Hahaha arkham city: the bosses arent quite as crap.
I personally think Asylum and City were almost their own completely different games. It's hard to explain, but I loved them both equally. Two of the best games I've ever played. They're fun, enjoyable, and that's why I chose them. The small things don't bother me (Except for the auto run. I've found myself going "GOTTAGETAWAY" and walking away like a pompous....Batman.)
love your reviews lol
Legend of batman modern war-combat evalved tri ultimate edition game of the year edition
ERMAGEWRD! ER WERT ERT!
: warfighter
I've never really noticed the animations in the credits before, now i have to watch every single yahtzee video ever, again...
With actual rumors of arkham universe that line feels odd now
I do agree with Yahtzee when he says there's so many villains. Arkham Asylum was quite safe with about 5 villains in an 8-hour story. Arkham City really pushes it with 15 villains in a 12-hour story. The other thing is that I find Arkham Asylum a bit more adventurous. There's a sense of mystery to the asylum, there's a fair amount of areas that require clever item usage, and then there's areas that require stealth and/or raw force. Arkham City uses more of the latter, and I so prefer Asylum.
I liked Arkham City much more than Arkham Asylum (partly because of the graphics). However, my PS3 broke before I could make any real progress on City, and I still haven't gotten it fixed.
Uhmmm Batman Had a rocket and it looked half him and half Superman.
Google it. It's true
2:54 - love the reference, used to watch jason and the argonauts when I was a kid
Hey mr jag!
hi
And you don't really know either. Do you think the programmers, artists, and designers are working without pay for 2+ years while they make their game, hoping beyond hope that they're game will get good so they can invest the money at the end in stocks and live off the dividends?
The developers are being paid by the publisher throughout the development process. In fact, the only money from a game sale they see is MAYBE through royalties, if it's in their contract, and MAYBE through a bonus.
I'm not saying don't buy used games full stop. But I'll support developers by buying new games or buying used with online passes 90% of the time. Like I said, I can't afford to buy new games all the time but buying used isn't the only other alternative. You can wait a while and get games. Thereby the developer gets money instead of it all going to a game store. Also, you don't have a right to get games because you want them. Games are a luxury.
i oppose DRM stuff, if they bring it i wont buy it that simple and if YOU dont buy it, guess what it wont happen!, besides i have the right to do whatever i want to something i buy (legal stuff of course i cant shoot people with a gun as well as copy and sell the game), if you wanna punch your right be my guest, i buy some new games now and then (pre-ordered tales of xillia) but i CANT afford to always buy them and used games are a good way for a LOT of people to keep gaming
It doesn't matter how many times the game is resold, once a person purchases their copy of the game they are free to do with it as they please, provided what they are doing resides withing the confines of law. This does not include ripping the game to distribute it on the internet. Even if the people pirating the game buy a few copies, they are still pirating it, and it doesn't compare to the thousands of copies that are purchased new.
No one's telling you to go out and buy every game on release day. I only buy one new game every 1/2 years. The rest of the time I just wait a few months and still buy it new. The developers still get my money but I don't pay full price or give all my money to the shop instead of the people who made the game. Used games are one of the reasons why so many good developers end up getting closed.
how are them any diferent?, you buy it so you have the right to do what you want with them, once some1 stops playing and sels the game, the servers wont be holding that person anymore and will be holding only the new buyer wich takes the same user space.... they are entretainment, things that are supose to be cheap for your free time, you shouldnt have to always waste 60 bucks to play a single 1 that will probably last a week....
There's 2 different people playing the game but the developer only gets money from the other one. Games have patches and updates and servers running. The developers do all that and you can't even give them a bit of money? Games aren't the same as cars, books, electronics. Games are software just like programs on PC. They come with activation keys and that's no different from games with them.
*Audible Groan!* I getting real sick with people saying that if you buy a used game you aren't supporting the developers. It isn't like these used games just came out of the aether, when you buy a product that is "used" you are buying a product that was at one point sold as "new", it's not like you're stealing anything because the publisher/developer already got all of their money from it. People should have just as much a right to buy used games, as they do with cars or books or electronics.
If you buy a new game, you're giving royalties to the developers (not the ACTUAL, HARD WORKING people, but the guys at the top), where if you buy a used game, someone has already paid full price, and the royalties are already paid. Now you're just giving your local buy/trade/sell retail shop more money.
More money for the developers = more games; otherwise, bye bye development company.
They are not in a relationship. Harley Quinn wants there to be one, is delusional about there being one, is delusional about the Joker loving her and the Joker has, several times, thrown her into harms way to escape Batman and other pursuers.
The Joker would not give two shits about Harley Quinn dying. He'd just find another loon to do his dirty work.
ya and i buy 1 or 2 release games for year but i if i want to keep on playing good games i have to either buy them used of the real cheap new 1s, you dont see any other service that complains so much about used stuff so stop saying poor game developers while the consumers are the ones that have real hard times
Oh, I liked your list and the point you were making, I just wanted to point out for his supposedly anti-Nintendo anti-RPG stance he actually really likes that particular Nintendo RPG series. Even my additions doesn't complete your list as there's lots he's mentioned liking before. Painkiller, Half-Life 2, etc.
Developers are the ones being shut down. This is their livelihood. You don't have some supposed right to play games. The least you could do is support the developers. In fact it's people like you who opposed stuff like new game DLC and online passes who brought this whole DRM stuff on us.
dude... really? i do that and i try to support them, and the game store i go, i have friends there and its a "indie" store, i DO buy new games and im NOT saying to not buying them im just saying that look at your wallet 1st and then at the developers
every has their advantages and disadvantages like games so no point on saying that, i can get a refund on my used games if they dont work as long as i buy them on a decent game store, if a friend sells me a broken 1 i just rant him to death
Sorry Yahtzee, but when the Game Stop Christmas card only had twenty bucks, I kind of had no choice but to buy preowned.
Well, no need to worry about a sequel to batman arkham city taking it to higher improbable levels, because the next game is going to be a prequel involving batman's origin and the birth of the joker
Asylum is well-places, in city; there are too many villains and the devs tried to get them all a decent amount of screen time, but, it turned out to be a jumbled mess with too much going on.
I don't know if Yahtzee specifically avoided it here to not spoil anything, but its questioned in game many times how Hugo Strange was able to pull it off and its pretty majorly revealed that it's cause of Ra's Al Ghul helping him who pretty much is the (secret) emperor of the human race.

It's funny how right he actually IS in this video: according to IGN, the sequel will be based on Batman from the 50's - A PERIOD WHEN BATMAN USED TO EVEN VISIT SPACE. -.-
I just finished Arkham City today. I'm only 50% done with it. Too many riddler trophies and puzzles. Damn If I wanted to find shit for hours I'd clean my room.
I think Zero Punctuations should review different kinds of gum too. Like this one tastes like it got but fucked 300 times then sold to us or something lol
While you guys were misspelling in the comments section, I decided to watch the video. Very funny actually!
I get what you mean by 'sequely' yahtz. Middle Earth: Shadow of War positively reeked of it when I first laid eyes on the greedy fucking thing.
The devs managed to create a fully hd res dog partner for batman... everything is photo realistic from the id in his ear... to the scars on his nose...
He used Mayor Sharp as a front man for Martial Law in Gotham after the Arkham Asylum situation and some other things... Do your research....
Man, but how awesome would Batman: Arkham Universe really be, right? The Joker's ships would all be giant laughing clown heads blasting through space, Two-Face would have a whole planet that was half-paradise and half-hellscape, Batman would probably operate out of an spacestation buried in a giant asteroid to keep the "cave" image going, Poison Ivy has alien plants that can eat people and spread to cover whole worlds OH MY GOD SOMEONE MAKE THIS GAME ALREADY.
"Dc can go back to what it's really about. Struggling teens having their legs and arms broken by a rich business man."
LOL that was the funniest description of batman ive ever heard 😂😂😂
Batman: Arkham Ham on an Ark
Batman: Arkham 4
Batman: Holy Shit Batman (Arkham)
Batman: Arkham Revelations
Batman: Arkham's Fare
I really dislike this combat system that every superhero game ever has now. It seems like you spam click to beat the crap out of people and then spam the right mouse button when Batman feels like somebody's about to hit him in the face with a nail bat.
Well no, there are no facts that back that up, because it's an entirely subjective opinion.
Hugo Strange is able to do that because he's controlling the mayor who is Quincy Sharp? It's established early on in the game how did you not understand that?
