Media Batman: Arkham Knight

Return of the Joker would be an awesome game, but in a way AK pretty much did that story just with kinda different characters.

 

[FSLAR]

Return of the Joker certainly could use some things, though I would see the game more as Arkham City with some things than Knight...maybe.

I dunno but yeah, AK kind of is like Return of the Joker actually it really is!

 

[ZaCHw117]

all the arkham games kinda have that "bait and switch" story. well at least AC, AO, and AK.

 

[FSLAR]

AC wasn't as bad cause it didn't impact as much, but AO I think is the worst by far

 

[DarkMagic]

I think a BB game (set in the Arkham universe) would be really difficult, unless they deviated A LOT from the original BB story. For one thing, as soon as Terry McGinnis shows up in the Gotham of the future (New Gotham),

Spoiler

everyone in the Arkhamverse would know exactly who was financing and supporting him.

Not sure spoiler tags are still necessary at this point, but wanted to be extra careful just in case.

I would prefer they just did they're own thing, but somewhere in the game show us the intro with Bruce in the Batman Beyond suit with the shorter ears. I don't know why they got longer and the mask got huge when Terry put the mask on, but I love this look so much:



Would you guys prefer to have a bigger world like Arkham Knight, so we could fly around as Terry or in the Bat-plane, or something with a tighter narrative like Arkham Asylum? My favorite game of the series in Arkham Asylum since it's so confined to such a small area, but we missed out on a lot of the cool Batman elements by not having the big opened city, so that's why I wouldn't say it's the best. They can't win either way because if they do open-world, it's more likely to be bloated and repetitive, but if they make it more confined to corridors, you miss a lot of awesome elements about traveling around in the Batman universe.

AK kind of is like Return of the Joker actually. lol

And it's really ****in' terrible at it.

Haha yea I forgot this game reminded me of TDKR. Like Evil said last page, lack of final fight with AK and even deathstroke was super lame, especially since there was one in origins. All that and you just have a tank battle with deathstroke and a sneak on AK when he's not looking. yay.

I think superman would be the next game, but not sure. He's hard to lock down in game mode historically and so far in recent movies too

The Deathstroke fight was very lame in AK. Especially when compared to the the Deathstroke vs Bats fight in AO. It was a HUGE disappointment for me personally.

I've never really used the stock suit in the game, now, I will.

WHOA! Didn't see that coming.

I thought it would be cool two years ago. Arkham Knight isn't relevant anymore, why did they decide to capitalize on it now? I'm definitely getting it, but it seems pointless since the game is old news now. Heck, even Return to Arkham is old news.

Better late than never. Or do you want more Leto Jokers?

I guess.
This announcement feels out of the blue.

 

[batfan08]

Considering the fact that it took them, like, 4 ******* years to release the AC Bats, and 3 from the initial teaser to the announcement, I'd say a PO announcement a year and a half late and a release within two years of the game being released seems like a miracle, by comparison.

 

[Captain Clown]

Point taken.

But how haven't they announced Joker yet? Howard flat-out said in an interview that they'd officially announce Bats & Joker at the same time once Batman's prototype was complete, and now... we're getting an Arkham Knight Batman.

Howard moves in mysterious ways.

...I'm still getting the figure since it's beautiful.

There's no guessing with HT but the possibility of an Arkham Joker seems more hopeful now since he's also a character from Arkham Knight. Whatever version they might end up going for, it's fine since Joker looks more or less the same in all these games. It's just that it would be stupid of them not to do a companion figure for this one since they already missed the boat.

Not that HT isn't known for not doing stupid., mind you.

Best quote ever.

Because HT doesn't care about VGM and they probably bought the rights to AK at the time of release and only decided "Hey... memba we bought that one time? Yeaaaaah..."

Anyone get that achievement for beating that Iceberg Lounge AR challenge and meeting a familiar foe? Never had this much trouble with a combat challenge. Recently noticed I Missed a whole combat challenge dlc pack

this is the problem with Hot Toys VGM figures .. they announce these figures waaay past their initial release date after the hype dies.. which hurts their selling
