Bos_hybrid Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 If I add up all the games I've purchased since 2000 no way is it even close to 50. I don't really want to think about how many games I've bought since 2000. And that's just PC, if you add Dreamcast, PS2, Xbox, X360 and PS3.... Damn.

Which still puts me way over 50.

Maria Caliban Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 My new video card came with a 'free' copy of Batman: Arkham City. I think the card even has Batman's lovely mug gracing it, so I can stare at his bleeding nose though the window in my computer case. I'd have played an extra $15 if they'd made it a picture of Catwoman. While I enjoyed the first Batman: AA game, I have a burning hatred of Batman carried from my comic loving adolescence. I wonder if slapping some paint on the card is doable. "When is this out. I can't wait to play it so I can talk at length about how bad it is." - Gorgon.
HoonDing Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 I can't wait to finish the main story so I can play with Catwoman on the entire map. Batman is a bore. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
entrerix Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 i buy a lot of games every year, at such low prices, it's really hard not to. i try not to go too crazy though, i really don't like buying bad games, and thats happened more in the past 2 years than in probably the 5 years before Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game. I am there. and the other player is there. and it's just the two of us. and I put the other player's body in my van. and I am the winner. - Nice Pete.
Tale Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 I can't wait to finish the main story so I can play with Catwoman on the entire map. Batman is a bore. I know the real reason you want to play as her. She's not a piece of meat! She's a person! Who just so happens to suck at travelling around the map because that whip is terrible.

WorstUsernameEver Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 Batman also has the lack of over-the-top sexist insult barks during combat over her.

So she is definitely hot... fun in combat, but would need some more combos to be more fun than Batman. And good luck with snipers and armed thugs. 1.13 killed off Ja2.

So she is definitely hot... fun in combat, but would need some more combos to be more fun than Batman. And good luck with snipers and armed thugs. She can crawl on ceiling though, but the inability to break weapons is definitely a disadvantage. But so far in the beatdown challenges I've gotten over 124000 points with Catwoman while my top with Batman is around 80000 so I think she's easier. Fortune favors the bald.
HoonDing Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 I'm just past the boss fight with Ra's Al Ghul ... not sure what to think about it. It felt more like something from Prince of Persia. Kind of disappointed. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Starwars Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 Playing some Storm of Zehir with an all-evil party. Have recruited Chir (forgot that that fight with the Mindflayers can be a pain in the butt on lower levels) and am gonna recruit the Shadow Thief woman once I hit the Sword Coast. Aw yeah.

HoonDing Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 (edited) Well, finished the main story of Arkham City (I did only do a few of the side missions, but those were tedious anyway having to hunt after phones and other crap across the map). I'm pretty disappointed overall. Batman gets a few cool new gadgets, but combat gets boring quickly since it's just the same old from Arkham Asylum. Catwoman is fun to play, but she's just in for 30 minutes and a short epilogue. Collecting riddles is boring as well, and it doesn't really make sense hunting after them considering how the story pans out. The story starts interesting, but completely falls apart at the end, and it feels like Rocksteady shoehorned in pretty much every Batman villain out there just to get a cool boss fight (who come down to either just punching through a mob of mooks or beating down a behemoth, or both). Only good thing I can say is that at least Rocksteady had some guts with the way they treated some characters (and I'm still kind of interested what Rocksteady will do in a sequel). All in all, not sure what all the fuzz was about the game. It would've been much better if the game had more missions with Catwoman, and even Robin + Nightwing.

Maria Caliban Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 I think the fuss was 'sequel to Arkham Asylam.' I'm not surprising the story is lackluster. I like Paul Dini bu his best work has always been while he was paired with Timm. But I always thought that made Batman: AA fun was as much the gameplay. 'Stealth' + Close quarter combat + gadgets. Not a lot of Catwoman? That's disappointing. "When is this out. I can't wait to play it so I can talk at length about how bad it is." - Gorgon.
HoonDing Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 I also like how I painstakingly take out every armed thug with Catwoman (which is hard, unlike with Batman) and then teh game crashes because of Games for Windows Live, forcing me to start all over. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Rosbjerg Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 What about Robin and Nightwing? Played them yet? No, can they be bought on an X-box? if so I might actually buy them for my friend so I can play them heh. Fortune favors the bald.
Bos_hybrid Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 Rage, I don't see what all the hate was about. Really enjoying it.
Majek Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 They should be available by now. 1.13 killed off Ja2.
