Batman AO

Is a great port

I'll probably end up getting eventually. Still need to play the first two. I'll probably pick it up on sale next year or something.

It runs beautifully.

Near flawless so far

Ive heard mixed reviews on this one.

There are quite noticeable bugs this time around. Maybe they rushed it a bit.

Also, I am a little annoyed that you HAVE to FINISH side missions to unlock some abilities. So if you are going to just blast through the main story, you are not going to get some essential unlocks that adds a lot in gameplay dynamics.

Definitely not as good as Arkham City.

Still pretty fun. I'm only about 3 hours in.

The lack of Joker makes me sad

Black Mask just isnt as cool

Im 5 hours in

I saw a picture from this game and there was a Queen Industries container in the background. Is the Green Arrow in this?

Not yet

Spoiler really is a spoiler. I have given warning.

Spoiler:

Batman.

I bought both of the first games Asylum and City. Never opened or bothered to play either one before they got traded back in.

I know they are supposed to be great, but I just couldn't make myself do it.

I'll pass on this one because I just know I will never even try it.

There is so much wring with you Metal I am surprised you haven't been put down yet.

Pfft.
Nonsense!

So far Im really liking this game, lots of random glitches though....

Is it made by the same guys?

Yes I believe so

Bugs are a little rampant this time around. Wasn't this bad in last two at launch. At least, from what I remember.

Its not made by the same guys. Changed devs to a WiiU porter.

Really?

Huh

They did a good job imho

Cant tell the difference

Although yea the bugs...

It runs super well, way better than City.

This time around, nVIDIA has done a MASSIVE work to get things smoothed out, while adding lots of new visual candies. I don't really give much praise to the dev team.

Weird.

The original devs must be working on something huge if they were willing to pass on another guaranteed Batman hit.

OK, kinda pissed at this game right now. So far I have had the game freeze on me 4 times, one of which resulted in me losing my save data of about 5 hours.

So thats about 9 hours of gameplay with 4 freezes and one save corruption. I'm going to make sure to back up my save file to a usb card or something.

Ouch

Just experianced a game break bug

Im at the Mad Hatter side mission, and got into this big fight and died. Now every-time I reload the save the game ZOOMS WAY THE FUCK out and I cant see anything. And I die....did a search online and found nothing. Between this and BF4 I think I just need to step away for a few days haha.

Yeah dude, this game is buggy as fuck. Kinda butthurt about it honestly >_>

Me too man

What a bummer, as the base game is really good imo

Ok got past my glitch

This game is pretty god damn good

Might be better than City IMO

Its not as good as Asylum though to me

Just a couple things bother me in this game compared to city.

The grappleing. When I'm flying around the city there are far to few places to use teh grapple to get moving. Some buildings just can't be grappled on to for some reason. So the moving around the city sucks compared to city.

Mark Hamil isn't the Joker in this one. This guy does a good job, but I still prefer Hamil.

During the predator encounters I find things like vents and destructible walls don't play as much of a role anymore. I pretty well silent takedown every guy from behind since a lot of the other ways are just inconvenient.

The challenges to unlock things. I can't get the sonic batarang silent takedown, even though I have done it like 5 times. So I can't progress through the silent predator tree to get more cool skills. And there isn't anything I can do about it apparently.

All that aside it is a fun game, and I have enjoyed it when it has worked (they patched it and its not freezing on me now).

Yea I agree about the grappeling
