When this one came out I thought, "ugh, another one". I loved the first one but by the time the second one came out I had lost interest, the Arkham world is too "grim dark" and too roided up, I just dislike the art style now and the gameplay didn't seem as interesting as it once did.

Counting that this is a PS4/XO only game and not a PS3/360/PS4/XO game you can bet that they'll be making more games with this engine. Whether it's rocksteady or not, even if it's not an "Arkham" game, but even then maybe it's the last "rocksteady" arkham game, after all even DC is releasing a DTV movie about this universe. But yeah hope it's the last, I'd be open for a different art style.

I agree, sdp. Loved the first one, but got around half way through the second before getting fed up. Too much of the same, running around in detective mode constantly and if I had to do yet another room hanging from gargoyles taking out the baddies I think I woulda thrown the controller through the screen... It was fun the first couple of times but repetitive much? Also during large fights I found myself mashing the buttons so much it was hurting my hand :-/

When I saw the trailer, I was really hyped up. The graphics were beautiful though I think they could have been better. When it shown that this was going to be released for the PS4, Xbox One, and PC only, I was like "Oh boy! It looks like they are going fully next-gen!", meaning it looks like they want us to move on to the current systems. I understand that we're still in the transitional stages but it really is time to move on to the new systems. And once again, a third-party game skips the Wii U. Couldn't the Wii U handle this game?! It's not exactly like the Wii was compared to the 360 and PS3.

I don't have a PS4 or Xbox One yet, Still have the 360 and PS3. However I do have a high end gaming PC that can play all those Next Gen games. I might as well get Arkham Knight on PC when it comes out. However I still have Arkham Origins on the 360 which I haven't had a chance to play yet. I'm gonna have to before I ever start playing Arkham Knight.

It's a good game on it's own, it just doesn't do much different from Arkham City. Where the game really shines for me are the boss battles.

They need to at least let us play as Nightwing or Robin in single player. Its tiring playing as Batman the whole game, and Arkham City let us switch to Catwoman.

It would be a complete missed opportunity to now let us play as Nightwing or Robin. I REALLY hope they don't pull the Joker in out of nowhere.

I hate it when people make complaints like this about any game... It's a Batman game. More than anything, I wish they'd introduce co-op. Rocksteady should definitely tackle that in their next Batman series.

That's like saying you shouldn't want to play as Luigi in a Mario game. People like diversity and secondary characters, man.

Yeah, but to say you're getting tired of it? That's the series... Come on. Is it so wrong for someone to be the only playable character in THEIR series? It's not like Luigi or Catwoman made or broke the game. I'm not saying screw diversity, it's just that I see this same complaint all the time about different games and sometimes the only difference is an avatar change.

It's like when people suddenly got sick of Master Chief just because Bungie gave them a taste of something different. Some people out there are actually mad that Halo 4 had Master Chief...

My only issues with Master Chief, He's always wearing that Helmet, Even in doors. Kind of hard to relate to a character you never see the face off.

Arkham Knight is officially delayed till 2015. Surprising as the game has been in development since 2011...so its going to have 4 years of time.

I'm glad Arkham Origins exists, I can't imagine waiting from 2011-2015 for the next game. Arkham Origins was quite fun and I never ran into the glitches people claimed online.

Does anyone else wish we got the old Batsuit and Batmoblie designs?

Don't get me wrong, this is still one of my most anticipated games ever but these new designs just seem so uninspired and generic....

I can forgive it though with the redesign of The Scarecrow who looks...Perfect! Though it pisses me off how they didn't even get Jeffrey Combs back as the voice. John Noble is an ok choice I guess but come on!

So this game has just been delayed till June 2015....wow. Looks like this game was far from finished, its hard to believe it was originally planned to come out this Fall, then got delayed till February 2015....and now not until June 2015.

Looks like Batman: Arkham Origins wasn't just a filler game after all. Had that game not come out, it would have been a 4 year gap between Arkham City (2011) to Akrham Knight (2015). Hopefully more people play Origins now as it was very underrated.

They're both just as worthless and overly expensive! Go nuts!
