Arkham Origins is actually my favorite game in the series. It gave us a great new Batsuit design, an awesome Knightfall-like storyline with (FINALLY!) a very well done version of Bane, NAILED Joker and Harley's first meeting, and (although Black Mask got shafted) it had a memorable intro for Joker.

Blackgate is okay if you like games done in the old Metroid/Castlevania style - where you explore and backtrack through a 2D location, finding gadgets which let you proceed to previously locked areas. I typically don't like those kinds of games - but I held in there with this one and the constant backtracking only got to me at the very end. The combat is terrible, but I liked the puzzle solving. The boss fights were pretty good too. The story, while basic, was okay. It will seem entirely pointless if the Suicide Squad stuff doesn't have a big payoff in the future though.

What's kind of funny is that the Multiverse AC Catwoman could actually be seen as an AO version too - she wore the exact same costume for her first appearance. It makes the Date Night multipack make a little more sense.

Thanks. I think I'll just look up a walkthrough on Youtube and maybe get it later if I like what I see.

It's nice to know I'm not alone in thinking Origins was great. It kind of shocked me when everybody said it was just mediocre. I loved Bane and Joker in the game. Easily the best they've been in a long time. I thought the story was the best of the three games (that are out) and on-par with some of the best stories form the comics. And the suit is hands-down my favorite. It's seems like a nice blend between the comics and the armored look of the movies and actually looks like it could protect a rich crazy guy going out to beat some justice into street-thugs and psychotic super-criminals. After Origins it's Returns and Begins. I thought if the suit in Begins had been grey instead of all black it would have been so perfect.

Really surprised that there's no Deathstroke. You'd think how awesome he was in Origins and Arrow they would've been all over making a figure of him.
