Ah, right. I actually didn't play that one. So I guess it's been longer for me. Maybe I should get it. Thanks for the reminder.

Except for the Titan Joker encounter, which felt kinda lackluster even though the game was building up to that.

On that note though, I replayed AA on hard difficulty most of yesterday and some of today to get myself back into the swing of things again. Think I might try Arkham City on the hardest difficulty first time through. Probably looking forward to the Freeze encounter(s) most, off the top of my head.

Well, yeah, I was kind of implying that when I said "more interesting boss battles". 😛 But yes, for the final fight, Titan Joker was stupid. It was as if they just tacked on that fight at the end of production.

Nice.
I don't usually play a game on the hardest difficulty the first time through. Mostly because it usually is not unlocked.
I wonder how they'll play in that ambiguous villain that escapes in the ending of AA.

I heard a rumour that you fight Harley Quinn during the game. For the love of all that is holy, please make it a h2h MA fight.

If it's Catwoman that's fighting her, I agree wholeheartedly. 👆

I imagine the ambiguity will be solved by having all three present in Arkham City.

I really don't care for skins, so I won't be buying any. I mean, if they were free, then I MIGHT play as Frank Miller's Batman, but that's about it.

Not all three would have been able to grab the box with the Titan Strain, so no.

Dunno which of the three is in AC.

All three could have grabbed different boxes.

All three are in AC. Developers confirmed everyone from AA is returning, plus all the new villains. Bane's apparently acting as a mercenary, though, so he won't necessarily be fighting Bats this time.

Spoiler:
I heard this the concludes Mark Hammil's Joker as he dies in the game am I correct?

Thanks for not putting up a spoiler tag if that actually happens, moron.

I hated that, Joker shouldn't get a bane boss fight. He deserved something more unique

the final punch was cool though


True enough.

lol, yeah... If Titan Joker had at least tried to fight you more seriously like Bane, then it might've been more forgivable, but as it was, it did look like something tacked on at the end of production.

I normally don't play something on the hardest difficulty the first time either, but thought I'd make an exception for Arkham City since I felt I prepared enough by replaying AA. I usually replay a sequel's predecessor a day or two before said sequel comes out anyway (even did so with MKvsDC a little just before MK9 came out, as stupid as the game pretty much was).

Meh, not sure I like that.

Also though,

I can see why this is getting 10/10's. 😐

Holy Boop. I can't wait till Christmas when I can play it.

Also I'm betting that after you finish the game it'll all turn out that the one pulling the strings was really........ GRANNY GOODNESS!

Dun Dun Duuuuuuuun!

(Lol, Amazon Attacks sucks)

I pre ordered the game. Looking forward to it on Tuesday 🙂

I suggest everyone who is interested in this game read the graphic novel that just came out, also called Arkham city. It's a lot of fun and it sets up the events in the game very well.

A couple of weeks? It's not out for PC til the 18th of November, imagine how i feel.

The Catwoman bundle is taking forf*ckingever to download.

Can't I just play the game already?

It doesn't come with the game? Or it's separate DLC?

It's a download that comes with every new copy of the game.

It's fairly significant, too. Ties directly into the story.

Also, this game is idiotically good.
