Hm. Then I'll hold out like I originally planned. I bet the season pass will be like 10 bucks around christmas time anyway via some kind of sale. Or a Game of the Year Edition Yeah but I already own the game. Haha.

That's it, I'm screwed. This game has gone too far! I thought I could hold out for a good while before buying an Xbox One. Then they come out and say its going to be backwards compatible. Ok, well played, but you'll have to do better than that! And then yesterday rolled around, and I'm wandering the net reading various news bits, and I find out that they're making the 1989 Batman suit and batmobile for Arkham Knight. Bastards! I can't say no to that. I can't freakin wait. This is how I'll play new game +

Anyone seeing the news about future DLC someone found in the files?Next Batman centered campaign features a few baddies we've seen before plus a brand new one that's been teased since Asylum, I believe.

Didnt they put out a list of all the story DLC anyway? Unless theres details. In which case, share. Hoping for Suicide Squad since it was hinted in Origins.

So I've been trying my best to avoid this thread so as to avoid any spoilers at all, but I have a question. Is there anything I might miss out on, sometimes they'll put a code or something inside the packaging, if I buy it pre-owned rather than new? I'd like to save a few bucks if I could. Sometimes they'll put in like a code for multiplayer, and I could care less about that so that's a nonissue.

The only thing new copies come with is the Harley Quinn pack which is no joke like 8 minutes long and not worth it.

I ended up buying a preowned copy cause with the gamestop pro membership it was $8 cheaper. Ended up coming with three codes that hadn't been redeemed yet for the Harley missions, Scarecrow missions, and extra skins. SCORE.

Finished it, went full Knightfall, then did it again in New+....not bad. I loved the core of the game, every part of the story NOT dealing with The Arkham Knight, and the graphics blew me away. Gotham itself was beautiful. Really felt like a city. The Riddler's actual challenges were varied enough(races/puzzles/death rooms)to saty fun for me. Bat-Tank was a little rough, but once I put the work in and got better, it became very smooth. All that being said...ENOUGH. Just Enough Rocksteady...like 5 entire side mission threads are "search and destroy"...The Firefly and Man-Bat missions would have been fine each being one encounter shorter..."I gave him the antidote, it just wasn't enough" is the laziest goddamn writing since "The Princess is in another castle." Who at Rocksteady said the phrase "DeathStroke tank battle!"? What sonovabitch put those words together then spoke them aloud? SOOOOO much Bat-Tank. Overall a fine yet severly bloated game. The ONE thing that sums Batman: Arkham Knight up to me... {Spoiler} Why is Two-Face robbing THREE banks!?!

Finally beat the game, or at least most of it that's not just f***ing busywork. It was okay. Too many things holding it back from being as excellent as the core showed it could be here and there.

Every time they did a part where you team up with somebody else I had tons more fun playing as whoever it was. Nightwing, Robin, Catwoman, and Harley Quinn in the DLC was fun to play with. Hopefully they continue the franchise with like a Suicide Squad game or something that's more focused on these characters as playable instead of Batman.

They did tease a Suicide Squad story at the end of Origins, so it's plausable.

Who at Rocksteady said the phrase "DeathStroke tank battle!"? What sonovabitch put those words together then spoke them aloud? SOOOOO much Bat-Tank. The same person who thought "stealth" and "tank" went together.

Meh. I liked those missions. I like games that actually challenge you and make you think. The games like Silent Hill where you could totally miss something, or actually have to get a piece of paper and figure out a puzzle by writing stuff down. I enjoyed it, because it was something I had think about and pick my spots. I wish more games where like that. Alien: Isolation was good at it at least.

Those are so frustrating too when you try being stealthy and sneaking up on a tank looking the opposite way and they decide to turn around at the last second and attack you.

They put up the Red Hood story up for download, and DAMN did anyone get jobbed out harder in this series than {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Black Mask? Makes an appearance in City getting stomped out by Tyger Guards, has his operation upstaged and taken over by The Joker in Origins and now in Knight gets thrown out of a building while pleading for his life. It's hard out there for a C-list Bat-Villain

This is exactly how the tank battle in MGS always goes for me. Damn Chaff Grenade timing!

Normally I'd be upset about such a major glitch in what's meant to be an AAA title, but y'know, it got me out of a terribly designed battle. Pretty much anything where the Batmobile has to go into tank mode isn't worth playing.

Speaking of said fight, I managed to hack 2 cobra tanks just to make the stealth stuff go faster, while I was sneaking around in the Batmobile, I noticed that one of the hacked cobra tanks managed to damage Deathstroke's tank enough so that one or two 60mm rounds was enough for me to defeat it.
