I want a Batman story where the gamer is more involved, not breaking the Fourth Wall involved, but at the beginning of the game Batman and Alfred establish the works of a new prototype Batsuit and later on in the game Batman begins building it and it's a custom made suit the gamer makes and about half way into the game Batman has to put it on and through upgrades and tweaks at the end of the game it's out of the prototype phase and is a full suit by the end.

I rented like the first or second one I think, played it for like half an hour didn't like it too much felt pretty blocky to me. I guess the transition from Nolan's Batman to it was what threw me off a bit.

Arkham Knight however looks pretty badass. Dat suit.


How challenging are these games? Are they fairly simple like Spiderman games where it's just mash square or whatever to do a combo and beat everyone effortlessly or is the combat system actually in depth like you'd expect from someone as skilled as Batman?

Trailers and gameplay have got me interested but I'm not sure yet.

I haven't played Origins yet, all the bugs I heard about has kept me away from it, but lately I haven't heard of any so I'm not sure but were they patched?

@Steve: As for chalenging, Arkham Asylum there are a lot of Challenge Maps and they really are a challenge and with City there are more Challenge Maps and it's a more open environment in the main story line and there's a mission where you play as Robin and a story with Catwoman and you get to play as her on your main save game. Also, there's a feature called Game Plus that allows you to play from the beginning with all your current unlocked gadgets, but all the notifications are removed and you have to rely on your own skill and timing to counter and figure out what to do without being notified how to quickfire anything.

I find Game Plus to be very challenging.

I probably will get Arkham Knight at some point but not on release.


Yeah that would be cool with the suit, sort of like the Iron Man games but more in depth than just buying more powerful gear.
So you could develop heavy gauntlets and leggings for added force to your attacks as well as durability.
Or lightweight parts that increase your speed, glide distance and reduce the noise you make.

Stuff like that would be awesome.


Do you get any kind of involvement with Wayne Industries in these games? Because it would be cool if you could...well not take over the city but fix it up, make slums more habitable and stuff by gaining money through investments and science divisions, with missions involving you saving scientists and recruiting them.

If it was a Batman game with everything like that it'd definitely be near the top of my list, Batman is cool but being Bruce Wayne would be cool too and not just for small parts of the story.

You don't get to do stuff like that, you solve crimes, solve riddles, stop random acts of violence against innocent prisoners, discovers the identity of someone who's following you and you find Mr. Freeze's wife ad that's in City.

As for the suit, yeah but make the game where you could play through several times but each time you have more unlocked, but the first time you start off with standard materials, but if you play through and do it again with everything unlocked then you can make it look the way you want and then upgrade it later.
