I find it interesting how game series go through stages. Arkham Asylum = everyone excited to see a decent Batman game for once. Arkham City = everyone excited to play a longer, more developed version of game 1. Arkham Knight = no one gives a **** anymore

I may be the only one pumped for this. Batmobile looks awesome. And while the inevitable delay seemed...inevitable, I don't mind. If that gives us a great send off. So be it.

Speaking for myself, I am gonna play the hell out of Destiny when it hits.

i Blame it on Origins ..

kinda like Assassin's Creed .. before it got to be a yearly thing ... it was really interesting .
 
I put some money down at Game Stop for this over the weekend. If its been delayed no big deal I've had The Order on order (fully paid off mine you) since before the PS4 came out. I haven't had a problem with any of the Batman games as I think they've all been really good. The AC games have been a bit of a bummer with the last two for me.
 
Ubisoft needs to realize what's wrong with Assassin's Creed outside of the gameplay honestly. While the Arkham Games, I don't get it. It can't be Origins since Rocksteady had nothing to do with it. I'm really pumped for this game, no doubt.

Arkham Knight being delayed to next year though is a good thing, more time to save up. Plus I might need a Wii U for Smash 4, Mario and so on...
 
Wait for watch dogs to follow the same yearly release thing.

I agree with everything you said. I'd rather wait a little longer and have a polished, complete game.

I'm looking forward to Destiny also, are there any other big titles releasing this year?

This was the only next gen AAA title i was thinking was gonna break the cycle of delays. Looks like its an unspoken rule now for AA titles to be delayed

I stopped playing Street Fighter 4 like 5 years ago haha, I can't believe there still milking that game.

This is looking like a drought season for games. Next year should make up for it though.

Why should I give a **** about it if developers don't give a **** about keeping the style and aesthetics of the series :cuckoo:

Penguin looks the same, Harley looks the same, Two-Face looks the same. Batman's armored suit, aesthetically, seems like an evolution of the armored suit in Asylum, so, please, do tell me how the developers "don't give a **** about keeping the style and aesthetics of the series?"
 
I dislike the art style for the most part, but it's RS, they deserve the benefit of the doubt.

Btw I just saw the batmobile trailer.....EXTREME!
 
I wasn't going to buy a PS3, but I did back in 2008 primarily because of the Batman Begins Blu-Ray release. Of course that opened the floodgates and I've since spent hundreds on games (including all the Arkhams) and Blu-Rays. I'm disappointed that AK is pushed to 2015, but the silver lining is that I can delay buying a PS4 (and opening the floodgates) that much longer.

Actually, blame it on WB. Roscksteady was already working on an AC sequel immediately after they finished AC. However WB insisted on a new game by 2013 which RS couldn't deliver, so they had to pass the engine to WB Montreal against their will, thus Arkham Origins was born.

RS praised WB Montreal for their handling of the engine and license, and gave them free reigns and creative freedom so long as it doesn't contradict the prior games.

Personally, I enjoy Origins just fine. It's no classic, and I never plan on getting 100% completion. My biggest problem with it is that it felt more of the same and I'd rather be playing AC again. But as a stop gap for a new, true Batman game, I think it did just fine.

At least a lot of effort went into the cash-in and it's a full game, unlike say, Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes. So whatever grievances you have on its' existence, blame it on WB.

Well, Ground Zeroes was also half the price of Arkham Origins, and a totally new engine with a bit of replay value. I enjoyed Arkham Origins, but there was absolutely nothing great about the game, the only new feature was some electric boxing gloves, and it was a broken game, which the devs didn’t even try to fix. Arkham Origins was a major cash grab.
 
My problems with Origins is that it's a cash grab (though slightly better than expected), has an overrated story, and way too many technical issues. It's fine, but I wish I didn't buy it for near full retail compared to Asylum and City, where I waited for the price drop.
