I've really liked what I've played so far. I just finished the part in Gotham PD. I like how big Gotham is, it must be at least twice the size of Arkham City.

Its been getting above average reviews, not bad but not great apparently, mostly how its the same game as previous titles.

Going to wait for the Greatest Hits/Gsme of the Year/whatever version. Get it on the cheap with all the DLC added in. Nothing about it is inspiring me to get it right out of the gate. I'm curious to the DLC story in this game. The season pass had tons of skin packs which have, thankfully, got some negative reactions. I'm all for skin packs but $20 for skins, one challenge map, and one story mode cannot become the normal season pass. Especially if the skins are like previous games and have no added bonus to them!

I still haven't quite decided if I'm going to get this game or not. Certainly not doing so until the price drops; really not that interested, plus my money's presently going to WWE 2K14 and Phoenix Wright. I dunno, I love the first two games (not so much the second game's expansion), but the emphasis on multiplayer and the fact that it's a prequel are both huge turnoffs to me.
I dunno, of those who've played it, is it worth giving a look on its own merits or is it just Arkham City with a story I'm not going to care about?

I bloody loved the other two games, so if it's the same with more content added, I'm all for it!

The words "Special Edition" hadn't even fully left the dude in the shop's mouth before I practically threw my card at him. So yeah, steel case, Tim Drake skin, a few multiplayer skins and then of course, the Deathstroke stuff and Knightfall gear!

I wonder how many of these reviews are influenced by supposed disappointment that Rocksteady didn't help make Origins.

I think I will wait on the inevitable GOTY version for this.

I like the way Bane looks in this. Like a combo of his DKR and Comic appearance.

I was planning all f***ing week long to spend the tips I made working today to buy this game today, made more than enough...had to spend what I would've spent on this game on something entirely f***ing trivial. Not a great day.

Anyone having problems starting the game?
I hit start choose the save slot then it puts a bar that says WBID Busy... loads for a bit then the bar dissapears and all motion stops.
the console itself isn't frozen as I can hit the menu button and the XBOX menu stuff will come up fine...

Deathstroke's pretty damn awesome. Been doing some of the challenges, the combat ones are so fun because he's got some brutal looking moves, and he moves really quickly. Stealth ones are pretty good too, as it's a nice shift in pace.

I had the same thing happen to me today.Waited like 5 minutes before turning my console off and on.Deathstroke whipped my ass before I had to turn it off.It looked like I was blocking everything too.Blah.

The ending hits don't sound anywhere near as badass as in Arkham City

Seems an appropriate time to post this: I attended the NYC Comic Con a few weeks ago. I did wear costumes for a couple days, and on the very first day I was there I dressed as Black Mask. It was an easy outfit to do; I just wore my suit, a black ski mask, and a chrome skull mask over that-purchased from a Spirit of Halloween store for less than ten bucks. The highlight was encountering a guy who was actually dressed as Deathstroke. We sort of paused and looked at each other. Finally he said "Where's my money?" I replied "Finish the job!" and at that exact moment a guy dressed as Batman walked by. We both watched him walk past us and then looked at each other in a sort of WTF??? way. Too creepy, but also too perfect. Later in the day I took part in a large photo op with a bunch of people who were dressed as Batman characters, and the best was a tall fellow dressed as Batman reaching out to pat a little kid who was dressed as Batman as well on the head and saying "I shall call him...mini me."
