Asylum: best easter eggs and secrets.
City: best Story
Origins: best boss fights
Knight: best world map.
Agree
Why does everyone think that origins has the best fights, which boss fights are really good? Am I missing something?
paco ramon I think Asylum had the best atmosphere and immersion
@@QuinnPrezz Deathstroke, Firefly, Bane, The Last Bane Fight, Killer Croc, Shiva.
They are REALLY good boss Fights (Specially Deathstroke, what is so well done), I Wish Arkham Knight has this type of Boss Fights, but in that game we have Batmobile Fights, and Instant Takedown. (still a really good game)
maybe its just me but I found the Knight map to be rather forgettable, maybe its just because I memorized Arkham city, but never took the time to explore the knight map
I remember playing Asylum back in the day, i was 11 and i also remember shitting my pants whenever Killer Croc popped on screen. Such an amazing game, still my favorite out of all the Arkham games!
Same bro i was much younger but i agree with Asylum being the top.
Stark Gaming I was 4, and I was terrified of scarecrow.
The Barona Native yeah scarecrow was terrifying too, especially the morgue mission!
@@stark6324 i was 5 years old
I was 5. The game scared me but was so good
I actually turned my PS3 off after getting to the Scarecrow bit, genuinely thinking it was broken 😂
You werent the only one- i downloaded a cracked pc version on the internet before buying the game, restarting the game twice then turning my pc off thinking the thing was badly cracked or downloaded incomplete
Same 😂😂
Gazza E which batman game?
Adamski2510
Asylum
Playerawesome55 thanks man
You know a series is amazing when everyone has a different favourite game
I absolutely agree, because a series is made to have different parts that make it a whole series, and each person having a favorite in that series makes it an active and successful series, especially the this batman arkham series, I just got my ps4 a few weeks ago and I downloaded the batman return to Arkham bundle on sale for the August sales, it comes with batman arkham asylum and arkham city, I just started playing arkham asylum and I love it so much, can't wait for arkham city as well
That's actually just called preference.. nobody ever wholeheartedly agrees on anything.. but sure
@@OnPoint88 and when everyone has a different preference and can agree the other games are amazing I’m pretty sure that makes it an amazing series
lol i just got the series today and im so excited mostly for city cause i want to glide around lol
Very underrated :(
I didn't play Origin for three years because idiots told me it sucked...
I cursed them when i found out it is as great as all the others and fit just right in the serie.
see the problem is that people default to saying that city was the best game in the series because at its time it had expanded upon what asylum introduced in every way.
I didnt realise that i played through origins 6 times thats how good it was
Funktastic Ed DTA
I'm with you on that ..
Funktastic Ed I have a Xbox one and u can play origins on the xbox one
Damn I just want a Batman game where it's completely Open-World, Free roam, you can drive the Batmobile, access the BatCave, and Gotham actually has people in it. Is that too much to ask for?
Deformed Elephant the Lego Batman games are
Totally agree, was so disappointed with Arkham Knight after a few hours into the game. Batmobile was awesome in the beginning, then got repetitive later on.
Vishnu True. And the fact that you have to use the Batmobile for a major boss fight. It's turning into World Of Tanks.
Just add an airplane and helicopter
Sounds like you want what the new rumored batman arkham game has. Batman arkham crisis. Check it out. If its real it will appear in march game informer. Itz got a map 1.5 times larger than gta 5. Use the batwing. 12 act story. Each act is an hour and side mission are uo to 3 hours long. Combat upgraded a bit. I hope its all true
Batman: doesn't kill
Batmobil: Bruh
They were drones being remotely controlled
He shoots rubber balls at the thugs just like most prisons do. He still hasn’t killed.
So a 5 ton car hitting you just stuns ok
Geert Matthys in the game when u hit a thug it electrocutes him, doesnt kill him
He doesn't when he hits someone with the car it shocks them
Every Arkham game: game begins, night time, game time says 10 hours later, still night
there's more to it than that but ok
The whole point is that Batman did all that, and can do all that, in one night.
Could be near winter
@@Law10205 could be lol
And it snows at some point in every game.
Origins is the best one for me. Batman is so aggressive and very Dark, Joker is mad and the environment with Christmas is no nice and obviously the fight with deathstroke is just awsome
Gallo dam why are you hating on AO so much its a really good game and just because it wasn’t made by Rocksteady don’t mean shit
Kegan Gowen but it still gets a lot of hate for no reason
Kegan Gowen but this game should get as much love as city or knight
@@johnmendoza5903 I'm playing knight and he is awsome as well... the batmobile is just so badass
Gallo bro just stfu AO is still a good game🤬🤦🏽♂️
Honestly loved the part of fighting deathstroke in origins
Edit: thx for all the likes 😂
For some reason it was so hard on the Xbox but so easy on play station
Who didnt ? It was the one major highlight.
Honestly......
I hated it
Try playing as him
Lachlan Ellis I was annoyed when you had to time your counters
The Arkham Series is what got me into Batman.
Same here, that is to say it was my introduction to batman and I was hooked from there
Bruh. All I did was watch the Batman animated series and I got hooked
What got me into batman was the animates cartoons and the action figures with no hands
@@fosc6838 I did start watching that almost immediately after and it got me hooked even further, absolutely amazing show in my opinion 🦇🃏♦️
@@calebfuleki3790 fr. Probably the best Batman show other than Batman beyond
I remember playing Arkham Asylum when I was 9 and being devastated thinking my game had crashed and I had lost all my progress
I understood that reference
-_-
Well i just replayed the game a few days ago and oh my god i never got so scared thinking my pc bricked
Bro i was so confused and then i understand thats its scarecrow fucking my head
I remember when I was 7 almost shitting my pants 10 times consecutively yet still loving it.
Loved Origins and Knight but City will always be my favorite
Yep the boss fights were amazing
What about asylum?
Makypine I played that as well it was more balanced
Makypine asylum was the worst out of them. the gliding was fucking awful and you could barely free roam with no side missions, which makes the other games so good
willburd bath well it was the 1st game out and it was really good for the gameplay and graphics back then
After playing Arkham knight you start to see how good the origin boss fights really were
I like the tank battles and deathstroke boss fight in knight, idk why people hate the batmobile
@@confusedcat-sm9cy I didnt neccesarily hate it, I just feel like they overused it
@@relaze2747 oh ok
@@relaze2747 yuuup its good but u use too much and it gets quite annoying but its still good and the whole game overall was phenomenal if the batmobil fights were toned down a bit and instead replaced with mistery solving or when u rescontrsuct a crime scene or some extra boss fight that wouldve been a 11/10 game but nevertheless its a 9/10 for me or a 10/10 rly great game.
Well, I have to admit, what Origins doesn't have, Knight does have.
Why is Origins hated so much? It was really fun
Dyslexic Batnam I do love it
I know but a lot of people say it sucks. I was just saying
Anyone who says it sucks, is crazy. Personally, I just think this series is full of top tier games and all it takes is a couple tiny problems to be below the others. Origins is my least favorite but it’s still better than any other comic book game.
Mainly for the reasons stated, the characters had a different voice and a different design.
It's because people got there hopes up too high and got disappointed it wasn't what they thought it would be
Honestly asylum just did so well in capturing that vibe you’d think it’d have. It really made it feel like you were stuck as Batman on an island filled with the criminally insane, with the darkness and feeling alone in your quest to stop the joker. Not to mention the asylum itself which I’d say accurately captures the essence of what a taken-over asylum would feel like
couldn't have said it better. As a kid it blew my mind and normally you don't pay attention to things like that but the feel of asylum was insane. Words can't describe.
It was really boring
@@thatone2265 I’m almost certain you didn’t even get halfway through the game you probably got lost and gave up early on like most people. That’s okay though ive beaten all of them and they’re the best games ive ever played
@@checkurwalls1929 I’ve beaten the whole game and gotta say it was disappointing
@@Gage952 dang that sucks I guess it’s more a personal taste more than anything respect your opinion
Arkham Asylum: The darkest and scariest
Arkham City: The most grand and beautiful
Arkham Origins: The most badass
Arkham Knight: The most realistic
Arkham Origins is actually very good, way better than Knight
Roland YT i definitely agree
@@GoldXBossPeLume i agree
What should i play [asylum or city]
@@moraqi3516 both
See you used the real Batman theme in the background...
LEGO BATMAN!!!
Bro lego batman has to be the best batman game of all time
Sorry but that's just the batman theme in the original animated TV show
@@kdevy229 It's the theme for the 1989 movie...
@@robadc5832 oh shit sorry I forgot that existed
They used the theme in the 1989 movie, then in the amazing Animated Series in the 90s, and finally used the Elfman music from ‘89 in the LEGO game.
Asylum: amazing atmosphere, great story, good gameplay
City: great map, great story, great gameplay
Origins: best bossfights
Knight: best map, best side missions, best riddler collectibles, best gameplay (by far) great story, best graphics.
I see you didn't mention Origins Online.
*VIBE CHECCC*
@Michael kiely TN-1 Bane: ._.
So umm.. your opinion automatically became invalid when you said City has a great story. My advice? Lay off the crack dawg.
Origins: Great Story and best boss fights
@Michael Kiely Agreed we know who is the top of the list for boss fights Mr. freeze
I wish a remastered version of Origins was released for PS4
Joao Vitor Me too even tough it wasn’t developed by Rocksteady if they did it would have been remastered
I would've loved that.. after all, i haven't had the oportunity of playing it...
@@willEMG0905 me too 😔
You can play it on ps4 if you get the PS Now subscription. I think it has all the Batman games
@@Obarg1_ how do you get that
You know man, you’re not a game reviewer, yet you went more in depth on these games then ign or gamespot did. Kudos, you deserve more subs
MRDoctorProffessorRichtofen Dempsey ign can’t review shit who gives mass effect andromeda a 7.5 out of 10 and mass effect 1 a 5 out of 10
Azrael Wolfsblood true I was just saying how good of a reviewer he is, and how his analysis is better than most of the “pro” reviewers.
MRDoctorProffessorRichtofen Dempsey I know I’m just giving out an example that proves your statement
game developers pay IGN to give good reviews
As he said “play Arkham city you won’t regret it” an inmate said,” Arkham city, same old crap.” 😂
Did you beat up the inmate?
Time stamp?
@@izukumidorya3706 12:52
Coincidence
I've replayed Arkham City 9 times because it's such a great game
I personally put Arkham Asylum at the top for it made you feel as you were part of an Batman episode from animated series. While we faced many villains, it still managed to be a more focused game featuring Joker as main bad guy. I find a certain richness in such a game and would've loved more episodes like these
Rest of the games felt more like Dark Knight Trilogy movies (which again is a huge compliment) but in the game the games were a bit too scattered with all the side missions and it was always the city destroying level threat. I do love the grandness of scale we got to playthrough but its also like when asking for a more beautiful garden, they increased the size of the garden rather than the beauty of it.
Another way to look at it would be like asylum was more horror genre game in comparison like early Resident Evil games while others were more of later RE games where zombies are just a target for you
Saying that, I really appreciated the upgrades in many gadgets and playing as Catwoman was honestly pretty amazing!
It's so crazy that origins is my favorite game. It's just too good bro, the boss fights were perfect, in my opinion they portrayed the beginning of batman too well and it was just so perfect, the beginning of batman and how aggressive he is, he is so angry and young. And using roger was the best option for a younger batman, the beginning of a relationship with the villians and batman and them beginning to fear him and especially the relationship with bane or joker with batman. They portrayed the beginning of a great rivalry between joker and batman just too good. And then you can see that the joker will start to know batman better and he knows his weaknesses, like he didn't know that batmam would not kill anyone and he tried to break him. So joker was the best in origins and had the best design as a younger joker. The story was perfect, especially bane and batman and how they knew each other. I love origins and I don't care what anyone says, it is so underrated just because of a stupid reason that rocksteady didn't make it. The Deathstroke and bane boss fights still gives me chills till this day, they don't appreciate this game much. It's definitely top 2. I understand opinions but they really should pay attention to this game more. That mission in the hotel royale is still the best mission in the series. It was perfect how you go from the sewers to the hotel and you do detective and predator stuff and you see the joker scene where he kills electrocutioner and you get his gloves, and you have to make your way up to the hotel, it was perfect. And then going to the bane fight while joker is watching. And you go save joker and actually this game really did the backstory of batman and joker justice. You can see how deep joker is. That's why I just love origins, and to point out origins was the first arkham game I played that's why I love it, it introduced me to the series. And it's the prequel so it was perfect to play first.
The best joker, the best boss fights, the best character designs, the best character development, the best incantation of the villians, the perfect song, the best bruce wayne and Alfred portrayel.
Hating this game is a crime.
@@samuraigames4125 I agree I played origins last on my pc and it just hit different. It was the all around best experience ive had with all of the Arkham games . Even the DLC was an amazing time for me
city clears
I feel Arkham origins is underated
Mihir Mewada is it worth the buy I’m thinking of playing it I never played orgins
@@bruhno253 it's a great game. I'd say it's better than Arkham Knight. Also the Boss fights are the best in the series.
Alan Sajju thanks
@@alsage9992 it's no where near knight but ok. everyone literally puts origins at bottom.
Thegodhimselfoof Ig no it’s not
Knight: world
Asylum: secrets and memories
City: story
Origins: boss fights
City obviously has the worst story and writing. I'm beyond tired of people heaping so much undeserved praise on the most relatively disappointing video game sequel since God of War 2.
It expanded the core gameplay from AA well in most ways. However, the implementation of armored enemies in combat and predator was a goofy and artificial way to try to make players use automatic/loud takedowns. The titans of Arkham Asylum were simple yet viscerally satisfying enemies to fight. But in AC you just perma-stun them and mash square while Batman's head and shoulders embarrassingly clip into him. Not all proper boss fights were winners, either. Grundy was a pseudo boss fight puzzle reminiscent of the lamest parts of God of War 2, and the actual one-on-one part of the fight with Ra's was a wholly inferior version of the battle with Poison Ivy in AA. By far the shortest campaign of the four main games. Everything involving Catwoman was mediocre at best and came in strange intervals.
But that absolutely horrendous story is what cripples it. The writing is like sub-par fan-fiction (if I ever read fan-fiction). Overtly nonsensical plot holes, laughably contrived events and cringe-inducingly juvenile dialogue throughout. This is the norm, not the exception. It's thematically bankrupt as it pretends to be epic and profound with (admittedly) stirring music. Look, every Arkham game has some contrivances, but they're nowhere near as bad nor as widespread as in AC. Just about every aspect of the main story can be meticulously pulled apart. It's not in any way comparable to Dini's fantastic contributions to Batman: The Animated Series and its feature films. This is not the Mask of the Phantasm of gaming. I have to say that some of the side missions like Zsasz's phone calls were actually much, much better written.
Some of the major plot twists were embarrassingly self-spoiled. We could see that there was a healthy-looking Joker that gassed Batman, the real Joker coughing as he's filming Clayface Joker, and we could see Clayface Joker facing the mirror and seeing the sick Joker. I don't know how any person could be surprised by the end reveal (attempted one, anyway).
I will say that the challenge mode would've been easily the best of the series, but the absolutely scummy practice of carving out DLC character and challenge maps that could've been on the disc on day one, then selling them back to gamers. Each of the four main Arkham games are guilty of this to some degree, but City is absolutely the worst offender.
To top it all off, we had to stare at a purple-caped Batman for the entire game the first time through (there is a cheat code to use alternate skins, but that wasn't known until months after the game released).
As a game, I definitely prefer Arkham City over Arkham Origins. But the Arkham City I played is nowhere near deserving the praise it gets. I honestly thought I had a spoof copy of the game after the first time I played it.
Hotel:trivago
@ZANIACK Wait people dont like Mask of the Phantasm?
@@outis439-A
I didn't say that. I mean it shouldn't be viewed as any good as a story like Mask of the Phantasm. Arkham City is thematically bankrupt nonsense.

1st asylum
1st city
1st origin
1st knight
You suck
@@captainamerica258 nah, origins sucks
@@captainamerica258 you dumb Arkham Knight was the best
@Gallo i play both but Arkham City's third in Arkham Asylum second that's just me

Batman: I don’t kill....but he does
*Batmobile approaches*
8:56 When you said Victor Zsasz, I thought you said Victor’s ass. Which I wouldn’t want to fight either, to be honest.
Good comment
*DESERVES MORE LIKES*
To me victor was a easy fight but I hated asylum only because of the hospital because it was to mutch to get around you loose we’re you are and stuff but I complete all Batman games and I just love every game
All of them are masterpieces
True!
You said something there
So So So true!...
@Triple 4 there have been rumors, true or not I don't know that WB Montreal might make another Arkham game. It would be nice if it did happen though.
bdr32965 A rumor is a rumor. Never assume that it’s true.
- Worlds with a lot of easter eggs and love in every detail
- Awesome Stories
- Very cool fight system and sneaking
- Awesome Villains
- Awesome atmosphere
Thats the first game series where i can say that every game is on the same level of awesomeness. The best game series ever made
Well said 👏
Knight to me was the best a making you feel like Batman
I feel like everyone hates on it a bit too much, I really love it. Personally, city is my favourite but knight is absolutely brilliant.
@@UKEDNHAT7 Same
Same
it was the worst
It really makes you FEEL like Batman
Personally I loved Origins. The boss fights were perfection. The Deathstroke one was god tier.
Arkham City was amazing and I was able to see why it was Game of the Year.
Arkham Asylum: I haven’t played it, but it looks decent.
Arkham Knight though: Absolutely amazing!!!! It looks god damn crazy in a good way
GameTitan74 Knight was such a huge disappointment from City. So much build up from Arkham City like Hush, Scarecrow, Ra’s Al Ghul and none of them paid off in the end. The batmobile was forced down our throats and the limitless tank battles absolutely kills its replay value. I’ve replayed and beat all the Arkham Games countless time (especially Arkham City) but Arkham Knight? I beat it once and never picked it up again....
Arkham Asylum Iss soo GOOOOOOD, I recomended it 100%
GameTitan74 you haven't lived yet if you hadn't played asylum
Dixie Normis I beat arkham knight only three Screw you cobra tanks
I got Return to Arkham a couple years ago and I really enjoyed beating both Asylum and City, I would recommend getting it, I got it for around £20 even back when it came out
U realize how he was using the Lego batman music I liked it
billy tree childhood memories
@@ramonaguilararizmendi2298 yes some of the best
Its not really the lego batman music its the 1989 batman (but yes they did use it on lego batman)
ASMR by bob the music actually didn’t originate from the lego games. it originated from the movie “batman”
Zsasz’s tapes are one of the most unsettling and terrifying discoveries in gaming.
ikr, it gave me the creeps
My list completely changes all of the time, so I can’t ever really state a set list. Sometimes Origins is my favorite solely because of its esthetic and story, sometimes Asylum is my favorite because it feels just like an episode out of the Animated Series, sometimes it’s Arkham Knight because of its incredible finale and the best free flow and predator in the series. Sometimes it’s City for the fact that it excels in all of the levels mentions previously, but isn’t quite as good in some of those fields as the others in the series.
My favorite is Asylum. Right size, length, atmosphere, etc.
I’ve probably spent the most time on City with my favorite bit being all the playable characters in challenge maps.
Origins is severely underrated. I’ve never understood why people almost universally say it’s the worst of the bunch. I loved playing that story set in the early days.
Knight was still great but my least favorite of the bunch. Batmobile was a fun addition, and I even enjoyed the tank battles, but there were far too many of them.
Sk1nn3r24 the thing with origins for me is that the gameplay felt like a copy and paste of city and once you figure that out it kinda ruined the enjoyment of combat/stealth sections. Don’t get me wrong I love every game in the series but origins feels like the black sheep of the family.
@@subairali8075 ikr, the map was arkham city mashed with the most generic city map I have ever seen
My favorite game is knight but my favorite story is city like knight as a whole game is the best in my opinion
@The Umbrella Great minds think alike? (though I hardly consider mine a great mind!)
@@subairali8075 Yeah... I loved the series and mechanics as a whole, so even though Origins felt similar, to me it just felt like more of a great thing overall. Like if someone gave you a piece of cake, and you loved that cake, then they gave you more of that same cake, only they're giving you City and Origins. Maybe Origins was a slightly stale cake because it sat out for a day or so, but it was cake all the same. Bad cake analogies aside, I'm actually really bummed that they haven't released Origins digitally for Xbox One. I hope they get around to it as I'd love to play it again.
I actually very much enjoyed knight. It definitely had its shortcomings story-wise (mediocre main campaign, unsatisfying conclusions to cliffhangers in City, weak villains) and the batmobile was used a bit much, it was still fantastic imo.
The combat was at its peak in Knight. It was smooth, satisfying, and managed to sneak in additions to the already perfect system in City. And yes I know this is mostly because it was the only next gen title of the series, but only taking into account the gameplay, it was still the best. At the very least, it had the most going on, which is as as an improvement you can get with an already perfect system.
The predator gameplay had the fear takedowns which gave you a greater advantage, but it also ditched some of the mechanics in City that made it easy, such as using batclaw to pull enemies off ledges (which was fun but broken). They also added the camo suits that detective mode couldn’t detect and the heavy machine gunners that added a layer of difficulty to it.
A lot of people hated the batmobile, but for what it was, it was done extraordinarily well (albeit I admit it was overused). It handled well, and the encounters were satisfying and felt unique. I felt that it was a little inappropriate for huge boss fights, or at least the tank bosses should have been followed up with on an on foot finale, but it was still different enough to hold my attention and feel exciting.
Finally, the presentation of the game was just amazing. Not just in the graphics, but the cinematography, the dialogue, and the character interactions. Even though the story itself wasn’t anything special, the game was still able to have impactful moments that came with a certain weight and urgency that should be present in the final game of a series. There was a newfound sense of finality and impending doom that the other games had but did not hit as well as in this game imo. Its a huge accomplishment on its own.
Anyways my list is
1. City
2. Knight
3. Asylum
4. Origins
Like the video said, even last place is a fantastic game, but I gotta defend knight.
I loved the costumes in Arkham Knight too. Ivy's was definitely better in Knight.
Thank you for writing this. Knight is my absolute favourite and I still cannot understand all the hate
Knight is my fav
Spot on. It's weird how people just dismiss the fact that Knight had the best combat and brought so many more enjoyable changes to the series.
@@justrandomthings319 yeah
they really make you FEEL like batman
Thats the point of a batman game xd, but you are definitly right

I don't feel anything like Batman in the Arkham games
Honestly each game is great
I recently started playing Arkham knight and it got me back into the series
If I had to rank them I’d say
1- Arkham City - Best story, evolved the gameplay to go from looking good to playing good, great Easter eggs, best villain gallery, memorable side missions
2- Arkham knight - best combat system, best enemy variety, fantastic graphics, great dlc, has the best ar training mode, and most playable characters
3- Arkham Asylum - fantastic start to the franchise, most interesting world, music and tone was great, the intel files and audio logs were great
Honestly Arkham asylum is the worst “game” in the Arkham franchise but it gives a more unique tone and is still worth playing for nostalgia
4- Arkham origins- fantastic combat, interesting story, best boss fights of the franchise, multiplayer,
I have to state I’ve only played arkham origins twice and I that was years ago
I haven’t played it since I got my PS4 but I am planning on picking up an Xbox to play it
I remember origins being a fantastic game but I haven’t played it in so long and because of that I can’t rank it up with the rest, at least until I play it again
The more I play Arkham Origins the more I realize it is damn near a masterpiece. I honestly believe it's story beats every other Arkham game, it truly explained the origins of *everything*. Joker meeting Batman(a big one), how bane became so mutated, the reopening if Arkham asylum, Harley Quinn, how Joker took over the Sionis family mill, etc.
Also, it presented a much younger, stubborn version of Batman who was prone to letting his emotions drive him and still felt that he could fight the entire world alone, which led to Alfred nearly being killed. I love the scenery as well, seeing Gotham covered in snow was different from the other games. I just love this game, I would call it perfect but I don't have the knowledge to make such a claim.
Jacob Molyneux
We don't talk about the grappling system...
Unless we're talking about the superior combat, boss fights, and story. Then I could go on for days.
Enemies that counter your attacks, each boss fight having their own unique and dynamic way of fighting you, and a story that not only gracefully intoduces us to all the characters, but also give each of them their own satisfying part of the story.
Origins is the best. Sue me.
I see the words on the screen, but they don't hold meaning unless you give me an example. I told you why it's great, tell me why you think it's bland. And no, using an adjective to explain another adjective doesn't count.
Saying "Lazy, generic and boring" does not = explaining why it's bland. I already told you, using adjectives to describe adjectives just doesn't cut it. You need to give me an example as to why those adjectives fit.

Arkham Asylum was mindblowing when it came out. Such an atmospheric and polished experience that puts you in one of the most amazing locations in the Batman universe, and painstakingly recreates everything we loved about it. The whole journey is designed to constantly surprise you and immerse you in the setting. Every gameplay mechanic is built for this type of game.
Don't get me wrong, Arkham City is an amazing game that indeed expands on a lot of what made Asylum great. But in that expansion it looses the claustrophobic and tightly designed experience that the first game provided. It becomes more of a blockbuster. The best comparison I can think of is Alien to Aliens. I always preferred the original Alien, but most people love Aliens. I can understand why, it's constantly tense and engaging with a very rewarding third act, but when it comes to atmosphere, it loses a lot of what made the original great.
That being said, all 4 are among my favorite games of all time.
My list
1. Batman: Arkham City
-It was the game that makes me feel like batman the most and also the game that got me into the amazing series! Ever since i got it, I’ve gotten every arkham game after that, starting with origins, I have also completed it 100%! All 440 riddles and extra! I’ve completed the game 22 times! I’m going to play it again for yt soon enough so I’m excited for that! One of the best game sequels ever
2. Arkham Asylum
-I never knew this existed till after a while I completed origins, when I found out I got it straight away and it was a beauty! I be completed the game 100% aswell! Every time I play this game I feel like it’s better than city like it’s super hard
3. Arkham Origins
-Great Game! Me and my friends think it it’s amazing, the online mode was great, wish they had more maps and modes tho but it’s great, still playing it on Xbox one.
4. Arkham Knight
-Even tho it’s last, just like you it is still one of the best games ever, amazing game, I got it on the release date like I did with most games! Graphics are amazing! Side missions are good and overall really good, kinda wish its story and the identity of Arkham knight was better tho
Overall-BEST GAME SERIES EVER! It’s like it was made for me tbh and I’m so glad I found it, played the game a bunch of times especially city and yeah
DPunkGRG my ranking this the exact same as yours and I agree with everything you say
There is still people in Origins online?
I can't play
@@iwinulose2460 i miss origins online i was the king
i would rank knight #1 not for the story but for gameplay
then city then asylum and finally origins,my only problem with origins is that i felt they were stretchimg the story for no gd reason till it started to bore me
Origins was amazing. All though they had new voice actors,I like how the Joker was actually acting insane and random. Batman in it was more aggressive and actually felt like a real person,and rocksteadys,he was monotone. Not saying hes a bad voice,he just had no emotion in what he was saying. I also loved how you didnt know who the Joker was in the game,and everything was basically fresh as hell. Great game and so are the others
That’s probably because they were both pretty young, joker in his early 30s and Batman in his mid 20s. Batman was more reckless because he just became Batman. joker wasn’t used to being constantly beaten by batman. Therefore he was a bit more random than usual. It’s just so underrated because people really dislike prequels.
@@themobilemercenary1782 The randomness of the Joker is what really sets the story for origins up. But when you start with the joker you know all for your life and have the game version of him kind of lack luster when it comes to his actions,and then put in the joker when he actually acts insane and tries to convince batman to join him throughout it all. They went with a Ledger narrative sort of with Troy's Joker. All in all,I love the emotion in both Batman and the joker in Origins
Yea. Batman kinda sucks in City. Talia dies, he is kinda ok. But when Joker dies, he has to bring him in his arms not Talia that he was supposed to love
I liked how the Joker's voice actor in origins was like a mixture of Hamill and Raiden's voice actor's(I don't remember his name) joker voices
DID YOU JUST CALL KEVIN FREAKING CONNROY monotone. I almost agree tho he didn’t feel that much like Batman
Damn I’ve played every single Batman game and it really tears me up to know it’s over. Such amazing and young memories of mine. I play them over again just for the fun and like I said, memories. Fills my heart. Batman will forever hold a place in my life
Fyerek I’m sure a new Arkham game is coming, not made by Rocksteady though, by WB
wb teased a new game my friend
Trill REALLY?OMG YES
Yea there planning to release a game late this year early next year
@@slothdonkey- honestly thats fine with me, origins is in my top 2 along with city
9:12 game “supposedly crashes” yet you can still see the sparks flying from the busted electrified gate to Batman’s right 😂 just noticed this.
It’s not supposed to look like it “crashed”
It’s supposed to look like it’s “corrupted.” Like the games code has done a complete 180
Bruh your head is 3x bigger then your arm wtf
Arkham Origins was the first Arkham game I played, and I think it’s sorely underrated. It’s less good when put in context with the rest of the series, but as a stand-alone game it’s excellent.
Yea feel the same it was one of the first batman games i played and really enjoyed it
1) Arkham City
2) Arkham Knight
3) Arkham Asylum
4) Arkham Origins
Knight w/ DLC brings it to #2 over Asylum for me too
Origins felt like a shell of what we were used to at the time. I expected more brute style tactics and honestly would have preferred Gotham By Gaslight.
Agreed
City
Asylum
Origins
Knight
@@silloweet yep. i'm kinda surprised at how few people have knight last, it's by far the most boring because of the lack of hand to hand combat and boss fights, replacing it all with boring tank battles.
@@Jack_80 Exactly. I was excited for a new fight with Deathstroke and then instead of fighting they jump in tanks
Arkham Asylum is my favorite in the series. The empty cities that had me running from one becon to the next made the games feel too bloated for me personally.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that enjoys the metroidvania style of arkham asylum better than the boring open world of the other arkham games
Arkham City always felt like a perfect middle ground. It's big enough to be impressive and full of content, but also dense enough that you can just disregard the map completely after a few hours of playing.
It took probably less than a minute to get from one side of the map to the the other in Arkham city.
At least it made sense in City. It was a walled off part of Gotham that was completely flooded and ruined to time.
@@xgrillsenx city and knight and origins were better
Playing asylum when I was younger was such a nice experience, my dad and I bonded over the Batman games all the time
My ranking is this.
1: Arkham city. That one was my first, and the story in it was and still is amazing. I enjoyed the gadgets and the missions since it all tied into story progression. I think the Mr. Freeze fight is massively overrated though tbh, it was enjoyable sure but it wasn't at all as great for me as it seemed to have been for many others. I don't understand why people say the arkham games were lifeless, I found criminals almost everywhere I looked in detective mode and i could always intercept radio talks between the criminals. I also found alot of the other boss fights very enjoyable.
2: Arkham knight. It built on everything good I saw in city, I simply enjoyed the story a bit more in city. From a gameplay perspective I enjoyed Arkham knight way more, I love the batmobile and in all honesty didn't think it was overused at all, if anything I wanted more tanks on the streets and more control points on the roads and on rooftops. Like City, I didn't find it at all lifeless like so many claim it was, I could always see a group of bad guys just hanging around somewhere. The batmobile made added a brilliance to it as well since it meant they could put way more criminals on the streets, the batmobile meant you always had a means of avoiding the fight if it was too tough. The bosses here were also good, just not as good as City imo.
3: Arkham origins. Yeah I'm gonna catch shit for this but I really enjoyed origins, the emphasis on detective work was nice, the combat enjoyable as always, the stealth was neither too hard or too easy, the story enjoyable and the bosses were great, I actually enjoyed some of them a good bit more than I did the ones in City.
4: Arkham Asylum. In all honesty if I had played it when it first came out I might have enjoyed it more. Don't get me wrong, I like the game but it doesn't hold a candle to origins for me. It was the first entry and it laid the grounds for a great series, but the lack of freedom and the backtracking really didn't do it for me. It was a rather disappointing finishing boss as well.
All great games and I enjoyed every single one.
while the final boss battle was a bit lackluster, the scarecrow battles was probably the best boss battle for me and made up for the final battle
I found the toxic venom joker as the final boss on asylum as a pretty cool and wicked boss fight, lets be real, since when have you ever seen a big big monster like joker with a mohawk facing batman before?
@@identityman3247 don't get me wrong, it was a tad bit disappointing to me, but that's not because it was bad at all, it just wasn't what I wanted for a final showdown. I'm never gonna argue that the joker looked fucking badass in the final boss battle
@@spitzzy8089 the scarecrow battle was much like the Mr. Freeze one in city for me. Don't get me wrong, it was beautiful, creative and damn fun to play, but it seems others enjoyed it a bit more than I did. It was a truely great boss battle though
@@HaillstormGaming you've got a point, but "all" they needed was for joker to get some incurable disease, I'd argue you could do that in many creative and interesting ways, and the one they chose is a good example, it just affected the boss battle a tad bit too much for me
Asylum: Harley Quinn
City: Catwoman
Origins: Explore the Batcave
Knight: Badass robotic Suit
Catwoman ufffffffff
Harley in city is better than in asylum
This list is based on story. But gameplay wise, Arkham Knight would easily be #1
I haven't played knight yet, but from what i have seen in the video, you will be definitly right.
It's the most recent one and it was made for the current gen of course it's gameplay is superior
arkham knight is amazing game but still no arkham game can beat arkham city
yes, the free flow combat in Arkham Knight is damn perfect. A little less batmobile, more bosses as in City and a slightly better story and it woulbe be everyones favorite
Best in gameplay and worst in story
All of these games are amazing and almost complete masterpieces of their own! If anything, I’d say this is the best and most fun video game series of all time!
One thing arkham knight did really well was the predator mode gameplay with enemys that adapt to your tricks (like grouping up more or putting mines on vantage points or fire grenades in floor grates) not to mention the more ways to use gadgets in stealth like the voice modulator or remote hacking device.
TLDR: Arkham knight has good stealth mechanics.
They also used to revive their fallen teammates
@@TheHardcoreGamer10 Revive? He knocks 'em out, but he does not kill them.
Knights gameplay just sometimes felt too easy though and wasn’t cramped enough with combat or predator. Too much room
Arkham Knight's stealth fails in the challenge department, however. As long as you are hiding in a grate or perched onto a vantage point, since no enemy can even fathom the concept of 'looking up', and you are able to swiftly move to a safer location, you will not be seen. Even on the hardest difficulty, it's a bloody cakewalk. And don't even get me started on the fear multi takedown...
Origins is my favorite. Idc, it's fantastic

How could you prefer it over the other games
@@josiahbicelis304 there are these things called opinions, here you might learn about it!

Dwayne 16K yeah I went back and replayed and completely regret saying anything bad about it but it’s just weird going from rocksteady games to origins because it was a lot different and I really liked the way the rocksteady games looked but after playing it it’s really good and I would definitely play it again and I hope the new game comes out soon
I’m here because the batman trilogy is free on epic this week 😂
That was just a free 120$ tbh right

4. Origins - has some really great parts, but overall feels clunky and unfinished/lazy 8/10
3. Knight - Insanely well made, yet the tank battles overshadowed the combat and predator (both of which were amazing). 9.5/10
2. Asylum - Perfect for what it is, yet, apparently, perfect can get even better... 10/10
1. City - Nearly flawless. Amazing story, gameplay, characters, open-world, and the perfect sequel to the 2nd best superhero game ever made. 10/10

Arkham origins was top notch for me , most enjoyable , amazing soundtracks , amazing voice acting ( better than the other ones ) , amazing boss battles , amazing story , fantastic cutscenes
Yes
Yes in origins I felt like I was a Batman
It's so crazy that origins is my favorite game. It's just too good bro, the boss fights were perfect, in my opinion they portrayed the beginning of batman too well and it was just so perfect, the beginning of batman and how aggressive he is, he is so angry and young. And using roger was the best option for a younger batman, the beginning of a relationship with the villians and batman and them beginning to fear him and especially the relationship with bane or joker with batman. They portrayed the beginning of a great rivalry between joker and batman just too good. And then you can see that the joker will start to know batman better and he knows his weaknesses, like he didn't know that batmam would not kill anyone and he tried to break him. So joker was the best in origins and had the best design as a younger joker. The story was perfect, especially bane and batman and how they knew each other. I love origins and I don't care what anyone says, it is so underrated just because of a stupid reason that rocksteady didn't make it. The Deathstroke and bane boss fights still gives me chills till this day, they don't appreciate this game much. It's definitely top 2. I understand opinions but they really should pay attention to this game more. That mission in the hotel royale is still the best mission in the series. It was perfect how you go from the sewers to the hotel and you do detective and predator stuff and you see the joker scene where he kills electrocutioner and you get his gloves, and you have to make your way up to the hotel, it was perfect. And then going to the bane fight while joker is watching. And you go save joker and actually this game really did the backstory of batman and joker justice. You can see how deep joker is. That's why I just love origins, and to point out origins was the first arkham game I played that's why I love it, it introduced me to the series. And it's the prequel so it was perfect to play first.
The best joker, the best boss fights, the best character designs, the best character development, the best incantation of the villians, the perfect song, the best bruce wayne and Alfred portrayel.
Hating this game is a crime.
@@samuraigames4125 hey so I should try to get it cause I want better boss fights than city even though I loved it also in orgins do you fight Mr freeze
@@ryulucio-lee8302 in the original game you don't fight mr freeze but it has a dlc which is the best dlc in the franchise it is so good.. and in that you fight mr freeze which is a pretty good boss fight.

Absolutely true
@@BittersweetDuality and more crazy to put knight at the top
@@ecstasy1078 Knight has the best gameplay
Arkham games ranked by me from worst to best:
4.) Arkham Origins: Awesome game! Loved the snowy atmosphere but it it was kinda of a let down because I was really hyped for a sequel not a prequel.
3.) Arkham Asylum: One of the best Batman games ever! I felt like Batman for the first time and it really stood out from the failed Batman games from the past Plot was great but I just wish I could free roam more.
2.) Arkham Knight: The graphics of the game looked amazing and the gameplay was as fluid as it had ever been! Somewhat decent storyline and I enjoyed playing through with the Batmobile. (even though some missions with it were frustrating)
1.) Arkham City: By God, this game is awesome!! Great story and gameplay with a great villain introduced! (Hugo Strange) Loved the plot twist within the game and I loved the relationship between Batman and Mr. Freeze as well as with other characters like Catwoman, Gordon, Robin, etc. There is tons to do and the side missions were always fun to explore! And playing as Catwoman is also a huge plus! Definitely the best Batman game ever made!
Terry Price I disagree with you there
Yep, this is the best comment.
ACKTTTTTUALLLYYY........ Hugo strange as been seen in the comics and one of the first ever villains of Batman.
4) Arkham knight
3) Arkham origins
2) Arkham asylum
1) Arkham city
Arkham Origins for me is the best from feel, to story, to boss fights. among all of them only origins was the one i completed multiple times
Agreed! The others feel more cartoony while origins feels more gritty and badass.
@@thebalderthor4884 Other way around for me. Everything in Origins from the graphics, to the directing, to the villains feels cartoony and wonky. It lacks the grittiness and the more mature elements of the other games, not to mention the glitches and the combat, which is the most non-responsive of the series (after Asylum probably). Oh, and that awful Dark Knight Challenge system.
The reason the batmobile is used so much in Arkham knight, is they’re basically trying to make up for lost time with the batmobile
I'm glad you called out Rocksteady on the identity of the Arkham Knight. They made such a big deal out of him being a totally new character of their own creation, which turned out to be a big fat lie. Not enough people kicked up a fuss about this imo. It's one of the most annoying parts of the game.
Agree witchu 100% that pissed me off cause i knew who it was simply because of his whiney dialogue, batman lookin suit, fighting style, guns, knows batmans identity n there was that red hood preorder thing... They pretty much told us who it was but they laughed like we didnt know while they blew eachother.
Alex Crick it is a new character though the Arkham knight even though Jason Todd was the man behind this new character/identity
@@Doctor_Feel_Good Lemme explain why i think otherwise... If jason todd still acts like red hood but with a different helmet color HE'S STILL RED HOOD. I would only count him as a new character if he as jason todd was also different. But he's still the same. Theres no difference in him ditching the red hood persona to the arkham knight. They even realized it wasnt that good n that's prolly why they switched him back to red hood... It would be like if bruce wayne threw the batman persona away for a new name called nightfist but still acted like the batman in everyway n dam near looked identical to the batman... He's STILL batman...
It was very easy to figure out who it was since there was alot of jason todd cutscenes in the game but ig they needed to figure out a way to bring in the red hood
@@t_gomez661 Imo red hood should of been a side quest. N the arkham knight should of been thomas elliott...
1. City
2. Asylum
3. Origins
4. Knight
I completly agree with this.
Same
Bruh knight is 1st for me
so which one should i download after finishing arkham city ?
knight ?
RefleXx i usually say release order but if you only have the option for this gen and not a decent PC then play knight
My list:
1. Arkham City. Best all round storyline. Best all round voice acting. Best ending. Best plot twist too (Ra's Al Ghul's involvement with Protocol 10).
2. Arkham Origins. Almost as good as City. Yes its a massively underrated game. The voice acting here is also top notch. The story is much simpler than City's, and admittedly isn't even the second best story in the franchise. But the villians and boss fights (besides Deadshot) are absolutely fantastic. Batman is fantastic. It's also the only Arkham game to get Bane's character right. And when ir worked, the online multiplayer was very addictive.
3. Arkham Asylum. Sure, not as much available developers could do at the time, so even though gameplay was revolutionary, we now have better games in terms of gameplay. Although voice acting is again good here. Simplest story of the lot, yet a very interesting one to see unfold. Boss battles are mostly bad though, and there was little free roam. I also thought the riddler challenges were too easy, but then they made them if anything too difficult in the rest.
4. Arkham Knight. Yeah, it may have the best gameplay. Yeah, it may look pretty, and it's still overall...not bad. Voice acting is great again. But the story felt rushed and underwritten. The plot twist could easily be seen coming. And the riddler challenges went from difficult to annoyingly difficult. Also, Scarecrow didn't have time to shine because Rocksteady made Joker the main villain for the fourth game running. What saved this game from being bad imo was the dlc and overall aesthetic style of the game, and it's characters.
Flaquaboman that's my exact list.
Soo electrocutioners boss battle was better thanks deadshots hmmmm
Finally someone talked about the origins online!
I agree 100% with you
City is my favorite game ever
Origins is criminally underrated, has awesome designs, a awesome story and the Multiplayer OMG (Good Times)
Asylum is Nostalgic and has a very good story, difficult for me when I was younger and is one of the best games till date.
Knight has the best graphics, the Batmobille, a entertaining story but some times you feel boring, but the fucking Boss Battles in this one were terrible, and the tank battles OMG I HATED
That almost the same as my list but I put origins as my favourite
I love all of the Arkham games, l remember playing Arkham city on the 360
Arkham City will always be the best but...asylum has the best atmosphere and was the beginning of the series and origins was great on it's own and had the best boss fights and arkham knight had some really great thing's going for it too despite the overuse of the batmobile so they all are great in there own way😆
Are we forgetting that orgins actually has a good multiplayer
No because it was just okay. Fun idea but clunky in practice
Not really
Lmao it was actually fun
Imagine if they brang back that in knight
@@ziare. it's brought not brang
Scarecrow was the sole reason why Asylum was and still is my favorite Arkham game, his appearance in Knight was so so but Asylum is what made me love him alot
Personally, Knights my favourite. It looked good, scarecrow was awesome, and so on
Finally someone that shares the same opinion as me! City or asylum was better story wise but knight was so enjoyable I never got bored
@@bloodborne8311 same

@Arkham secrets • 108 years ago arkham knight is my favorite but scarecrow was boring , but jason was cool af as the knight
Exactly arkham knight was so good the graphics the city looked so cool I loved when joker showed up
There was jason Todd, scarecrow you got to even play as joker at the end
All the Arkham games were incredible. Even though Origins wasn't made by Rocksteady, I think that WB Montreal delivered a very solid game. I feel that Origins had the best flow during the fights in the entire series.
Games from Montreal companies have something in them. Like assassin's Creed ezio trilogy was made by them, and still is considered the best

4. Origins. Simply just not to much done that was different. Completely cocking us and still making Joker the main villain just killed any chance of it getting bonus points for doing something actually different. The tone was great, and I did enjoy the boss fights, it was a good game 7/10
3. Asylum. It's a great game, but I can't deny it hasn't aged INCREDIBLY and the story is very overrated. The Scarecrow and Killer Croc fights were fantastic but overall it is a lot more empty compared to the other games 8.5/10
2. Knight. It's actually underrated. The story is actually very good imo, Scarecrow is a decent main villain, and the graphics and open world are the series' best. I can't say it didn't disappoint me at times ( The boss fights, the Joker, some side missions are boring and The Arkham Knight was so frustrating)
9/10
1. City. A masterpiece of gaming. The open world feels alive, the story is unbelievable, a great array of villains and side missions, the Score is easily one of the best I've ever seen in a videogame, and I've so many great memories of it. I can't get over how brilliantly it embodies the gritty yet comically accurate theme that is Batman, and no superhero game will ever top it
10/10
Arkham Knight? UNDERRATED? HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! *breathes heavily* HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! I like how you say ARKHAM KNIGHT is underrated, yet you put Origins as the worst, which is EVEN MORE underrated than Arkham Knight is.
True
Niggabite Scarecrow wasn’t a decent villain, but a great one. He was by far better than Strange or Ras in AC. And in every other game it was Joker anyway.
Probably because arkham joker is one of the best villains if not THE best in video games.
@@kirak1561 Scarecrow was an idiot who kept passing off his failures as "part of the plan". The only reason he and the Arkham Knight were even a threat was because of Joker showing up at convenient moments.
In Arkham Asylum I remember just getting lost in Killer Croc's domain and then I just gave up and played GEARS of WAR.
Bro the scarecrow bit made me mad always cuz I also thought it was broken 😂
A lot of us thought the same XD
My opinion:
1: Arkham City
Best story, acting, atmosphere just brilliant
2:Knight
Brilliant graphics,good story but way too much batmobile and interruptions so I hope people would understand
3: Asylum
Good acting,as always CRAZY 🃏 joker
But the game didn’t have everything we have in knight and city
4: Origins
The voices were alright
The suit one of the best
The atmosphere wasn’t intense as the other Arkham games
That’s my opinions of the games from best to worst hope you agree
And I’m not saying origins is bad it’s still one of the best games I’ve played and I’m not saying it’s not the best because the original Arkham creators didn’t make it, it still feels like a proper Arkham game
Conspiracy Theory Talk
Id switch knight and asylum
@@yeah2152 jk
What are u talking about Origins had the best Batman suit
yee yee rebel exactly man origins suit was one of the best I’ve seen
@Eustace Bagge That doesn't change the fact that Asylum is inferior in most of the aspects in terms of visual and gameplay. You can prefer ths story, narrative, acting or whatever from Asylum (maybe estethic) but the latter games are better in graphics, fight, gadgets, etc.
This lists are OBVIOUSLY subjective and it really affects which one you played first and at what age. We tend to give "points" to our first game of a saga and mpre if we are blinded by nostalgia, but when you TRY to do a more objective list then you don't care wether Asylum was released 7-8 years before Knight or not. You make it depending on which is better overall in quality.
And NO, I'm not saying a game is better because of graphics or fighting, I'm saying games usually improve with time and it's normal. On the other hand, it is the story and narrative what makes the original works of a saga better, like Star Wars and movies, Halo games, books, etc. I don't prefer Origins or Knight over Asylum or City
When I played the game it just feels like Batman Arkham origins is underated
its my favorite
@Versatile Wolf people are allowed to have their opinions and I agree with them.
@Versatile Wolf no, that is an opinion besides if Origins isn't at the bottom of the list.
@Versatile Wolf But it has the best boss fights and cinematics.

@smalbot ok buddy your crazy to think that he meant its the worst 😂
Uhh... Gotta disagree. I'm beyond tired of people heaping so much undeserved praise on the most relatively disappointing video game sequel since God of War 2.
It expanded the core gameplay from AA well in most ways. However, the implementation of armored enemies in combat and predator was a goofy and artificial way to try to make players use automatic/loud takedowns. The titans of Arkham Asylum were simple yet viscerally satisfying enemies to fight. But in AC you just perma-stun them and mash square while Batman's head and shoulders embarrassingly clip into him. Not all proper boss fights were winners, either. Grundy was a pseudo boss fight puzzle reminiscent of the lamest parts of God of War 2, and the actual one-on-one part of the fight with Ra's was a wholly inferior version of the battle with Poison Ivy in AA. By far the shortest campaign of the four main games. Everything involving Catwoman was mediocre at best and came in strange intervals.
But that absolutely horrendous story is what cripples it. The writing is like sub-par fan-fiction (if I ever read fan-fiction). Overtly nonsensical plot holes, laughably contrived events and cringe-inducingly juvenile dialogue throughout. This is the norm, not the exception. It's thematically bankrupt as it pretends to be epic and profound with (admittedly) stirring music. Look, every Arkham game has some contrivances, but they're nowhere near as bad nor as widespread as in AC. Just about every aspect of the main story can be meticulously pulled apart. It's not in any way comparable to Dini's fantastic contributions to Batman: The Animated Series and its feature films. This is not the Mask of the Phantasm of gaming. I have to say that some of the side missions like Zsasz's phone calls were actually much, much better written.
Some of the major plot twists were embarrassingly self-spoiled. We could see that there was a healthy-looking Joker that gassed Batman, the real Joker coughing as he's filming Clayface Joker, and we could see Clayface Joker facing the mirror and seeing the sick Joker. I don't know how any person could be surprised by the end reveal (attempted one, anyway).
I will say that the challenge mode would've been easily the best of the series, but the absolutely scummy practice of carving out DLC character and challenge maps that could've been on the disc on day one, then selling them back to gamers. Each of the four main Arkham games are guilty of this to some degree, but City is absolutely the worst offender.
To top it all off, we had to stare at a purple-caped Batman for the entire game the first time through (there is a cheat code to use alternate skins, but that wasn't known until months after the game released).
As a game, I definitely prefer Arkham City over Arkham Origins. But the Arkham City I played is nowhere near deserving the praise it gets. I honestly thought I had a spoof copy of the game after the first time I played it.
@@LimeyFella
The fawning adulation this game gets is absolutely absurd and bizarre. Arkham City could have and should have been much better.

it so cool to see that y'all actually finished the games came back here and finished the discussion
i enjoyed knight more then asylum
Same but thats purely because of free roam
Ikr
Me too
Asylum had such a different feel. It’s atmosphere was amazing and was the best in my opinion
Am I the only one who loves the batmobile ?
7:57 In the story it literally tells you that Scarecrow warned and evacuated Gotham so he could gain control of ACE Chemicals, as the blast radius of his fear toxin explosion would cover the entire east coast anyway.
That's not the point. It is still an excuse to get an empty city. Remember, the people writing the story make the game
@@baitreview Yea but its a believable one. It makes sense
@@TDKR21104 yeah but we are not here for the story. We want interesting gameplay and seeing an empty city for the 53736th time in this franchise is annoying
@@baitreview having the city not empty would make 0 sense from a gameplay standard. How are they gonna make it so you can't run over civilians with a batmobile?
@@baitreview i can tell u didn't understand what happened in the game at all....
I think everyone can agree on city being the best and most enjoyable to play
Well Origins has a multiplayer mode...
@@mahernurhussen2398 wait fr how do u do that
My favorite is knight
I dont
I don’t
In Knight. Every villain had a Tank fight that is apart from DLC.
Deathstroke.
Firefly.
Arkham Knight.
Others
Two face?
@@jacobrawlinson12 he didn't. I put others because it was easier than this and this and this
ahm ahm *two face* *scarecrow* ahm ahm *penguin* *professor pyg* ahm ahm *man bat* *riddler* and no,races don't count as battles
@@tothkornel186 scarecrow is a cutscene boss battle, he is not a boss battle
@@confusedcat-sm9cy I know but he is still a villain and if you look deep into it Bats seeing Joker in his head is thanks to Scarecrow's fear toxin so when you fight those bunch of Jokers in Crime Alley you are fighting something that Scarecrow made you see.

@@stefaniacimmino3775 yep
city, origins, asylum, knight (based on the amount of fun i had with them)
Every Arkham game is incredible
I love the LEGO Batman music in the background.
Agreed
Dude Arkham origins was actually my favorite Arkham game probably because I only played it once so it didn’t lose its interest while the rest I finished them a lot of time
Remember my grandpa buying this for me when I was 6, waited all day because I had to go to school I got on right away and loved it beat it 100%, I had watched so many vids on it too. Good times
knight and city in 1st, origins and asylum in 2nd. THIS IS THE WAY
Knight first for me. City close second. Asylum third didn’t like ending. Origins last didn’t like combat or open world
Arkham Knight had 3 missing opportunities
1: Scarecrow Nightmares!!!!!
I was so excited when I heard that Scarecrow would be the main villain in Knight. Unfortunately my expectations we're too high, because when I thought the super, awesome scarecrow nightmares like the ones from Arkham Asylum would definitely come back in Arkham Knight since Scarecrow was the lead villain, I was wrong. They only came back in 2 Batmobile challenge maps, which was very bland as hell, because instead of having them as challenge maps, they should've been in the main story, Like seriously WTF Rocksteady?
2: Playable characters
Yet again, I made my expectations too high. If Rocksteady were able to make Catwoman playable in the main campaign in Arkham City, why couldn't they make the other Batman heroes playable in the main campaign of Batman Arkham Knight??? I was thinking that Robin and Nightwing would have their own Riddler trophies to find, similar to the Catwoman Riddler trophies in City. We got to play as them in segments in when you were in the Batcave and in the Killer Croc DLC but that's it, I was hoping you could've free roamed as Robin or Nightwing, but NOPE!!!!!
3: Boss Battles
This is why Origins will always be my favorite, because of their amazing boss battles. Arkham Knight only had boss battles in the Batmobile pretty much, which was repetitive and uncreative. I feel that Rocksteady was too focused on the Batmobile, rather than the other important elements in the game.
If Rocksteady is working on some other project, than there better not be anymore tanks involved!!!!
Origins was repetitive
Origins was repetitive by the way origins is the only game you played
hardyz and Finn mostly balor balor club studios Jesus you’re stupid. Why are you telling him that? And why insulting him just because he has an opinion you don’t have?
I agree, also I was like "yes! No more batmobile" when the Arkham Knight crushed it but was "well fuck" when you got it back
@Natsu Dragneel "loomed"
9:35 with subtitles on:
"For example, listen to Victor's asses interview tapes"
lol
Lmao
Why, TH-cam, why?
I remember playing asylum I'll pee myself whenever I saw bane or killer croc came out
BurntToastYT lol
so true I was like 8 when I played the game and after killer croc came out, I was so scared, I left the game for like 3 years
I almost shat myself when the man bat jumpscare happened in arkham knight
Bruh I still remember playing through killer croc boss fight
The only thing is boring in those games, is you have to use the detective mode all the time to don’t miss something hidden. You lose a lot of scenarios experience because of that, you only start to enjoy the beautiful colors when you free play after finish the game.
Those stupid Riddler question marks that can only be seen using DV…
Yes I had also this thought recently.
