Batman: Arham City

[Killswitch]

The batman beyond skin is uber-sexy. Nightwing is more fun to play with than batman IMO...it's a shame he can't be used in storymode. Hopefully some future DLC will expand even further on his bundle. Anybody get the robin pre-order bundle?

 

[Deuce]

Can you still get the DLC gor the Robin bundle? Or did you HAVE to Pre-Order it?

I am going to get the Nightwing DLC sometime soon and I hope he is better than Batman lol.

I heard you have to defeat Ra Al Gul or whatever then you can see Killer Croc, am I right?

Can't say I ever saw Killer Croc, you find his lair in the sewers at some point and get some story from finding a couple of riddles.

Unless I missed him, that's all I saw.

Was pretty disappointed with the finish. He's dead... but he can't be. I can understand if he is, but really?!

I love how Protocol 10 came and went without much of a whimper. I get what it was, but it was only briefly mentioned and if you missed it, you wouldn't know what it was. It didn't feel like the story took long, including going off aimlessly for side quests and such.

I love how a lot of villains aren't involved in the main story and some are just discovered. Also love the upgrade to the Riddler stuff. Terrific game.

Robin DLC went public a couple of days ago. He's got some cool features. His combat is on par with Catwoman and Nightwing, and basically ties for 2nd place with Nightwing in terms of best stealth (Batman the best, Catwoman the worst). His gadgets are a bit more situation specific than Nightwing, however Robin does have the ability to glide unlike Catwoman and Nightwing.

Catwoman is undoubtedly the worst option for stealth since she can't glide, her parkour and ability to escape are akward and her almost all of her gadgets are useless. Her best redeeming quality, though, is the fact that she can run in silence. Close-encounter stealth is her strength.

But anyway, a secret Scarecrow room has been discovered:

Thanks Defiant. You just sold me on buying the Tim Drake DLC to complete my collection.

I so hope they add Barbara Gordon as Batgirl and Jason Todd as Red Hood to DLC?

All together this is the best 29 bucks I've spent on a game

 

[Defiant]

While I hope they aren't done with DLC, I don't see them adding Batgirl since they've already established Oracle quite well. It could still happen but only in the challenge maps, which I'm getting a bit sick of.

I wanna see a story arc add-on involving Hush or Black Mask. They added their character models but barely did anything with them. Hell, Black Mask only appears right at the beginning and you'd miss him if you weren't paying close attention.

I think it'd be pretty funny if they made a Creeper DLC, since Jack Ryder is in the game but his alter ego is never mentioned.

 

[SAIYANS]

What about Helena since she is the daughter of Catwoman and Batman?

 

[Defiant]

Either I'm an idiot thats missed something or that's a relatively new thing, because I wasn't aware Bruce and Selina were even together.

Nonetheless, a nice idea but still carries the problem of the Barbara Gordon DLC in that it wouldn't fit the continuity of the game.

 

[SAIYANS]

You never heard of The Birds of Prey?

Bruce has a daughter with Catwoman named Helena Kyle aka Huntress, to go with his son Damian who becomes Dick Grayson's handpicked Robin. She works for Oracle, who by the way takes back the Batgirl mantle and recovers from being handicap in more recent comics.

 

[Defiant]

I see. Ive become more and more interested in comic books in general, taking baby steps to get back into the culture. I've heard Long Halloween and Living Hell are must-reads.

 

[SAIYANS]

Cool as Batman is moreinterestingnthan Superman for me. Techncially Bruce has 3 kids, as Terry from Batman Beyond is his biologically as well

Gonna go through the whole thing because everything about this game is absolutley amazing it was easily the best game of the year which was suprising with Assassins Creed Revelations which was actually quite dissapointing.

If you have the Catwoman DLC it starts off with her beating up a few of Two Face's thugs before breaking into his safe only to be caught by him, game then goes to Bruce Wayne being tortured by Hugo Strange and shows flashbacks to how that happened with Bruce Wayne trying to shut down Arkham City and getting captured, then Strange reveals that he knows that Bruce is Batman and if Batman tries to stop him he will reveal his identity to the world.
Bruce gets a communications device off of one of the tyger guard mercenaries employed by Strange so he can keep track of all Tyger activity, and is put out into Arkham City along with radio Personality Jack Ryder Wayne gets knocked out by some thugs working for the Penguin who prepares to beat the living daylights out of Wayne, Wayne gains the Upper hand and takes out Penguin and his gang and manages to make a communication with Alfred who sends the batsuit along beginning the story.

Catwoman's missions are ok the one where she makes a choice either to save Batman or leave Arkham City which was great because it had an alternate ending to what would've happened had Batman not been saved and died from the poison given to him by Joker.

Side missions bringing Azreal and Hush into the game basically set up for a sequel and another thing there was a pregancy test in the steel Mill I believe our Harley Quinn is pregnant ladies and gentlemen so we will have a Joker Jnr in our midst.

I still have to re-buy the Catwoman DLC, I bought the game Used so I the code was used already. I was disappointed but I would've used the code as well if I bought the game, so I understand. I'm still working on the Riddles and Side Missions, there is alot so I want to get them most of them done at least before the next Batman game comes out. I still have to finish Asylum's Riddles as well but I moved onto City too quickly, might try to finish that tomorrow.

The Scarecrow Mask found on one of the boats makes me believe that Scarecrow will be in the next Batman game as well and I am more then sure that both Talia and Ra's will be back due to being ressurected in the Lazarus Pit but what I am really hoping for is to see Jason Todd show up in the next game as the main villain as I think it would bring more emotion to the game.
