Batman Arkham Knight

This is how it happens... This is how the batman dies

To celebrate my 100th game on the blog I'm going to do a different type of review. Let's see if this will work

Game no: 100... Yay

Platform: PC

Genre: Action

Now the different format 

Story

Batman is back. After waiting years for Rocksteady's sequel. It finally arrives. In a nutshell is scarecrow and the Arkham knight have taken over Gotham and its up to batman to save the day. But this time he is not alone... Along with his adventures is a familiar face... One which I think it's a great edition to the game 

Joker is back. It turns out that Batman still has his blood in his system for the previous game and after mixing it scarecrow's toxin. Batman is seeing Joker wherever he goes. Batman saves the day in the end but at a high cost.

The good

The Batmobile 

I've been reading other reviews of how they think the batmobile sucks. But for me this is the best part of the game. The batmobile is a sports car that can convert to a tank. The batmobile gameplay divides it into a couple of parts

1) racing around Gotham 

2) fighting drones 

3) solving puzzles 

Every sequence has it merits and it's fun to play as the car. Plus pressing L1 will call it remotely and that super awesome 

Combat 

Combat is back in a big way. And it's still super awesome. Gone are the Titan infused bad guys. Replacing them are the equally annoying brutes which we need to beatdown a lot of times 

Gotham City

The city is big and there is a lot of stuff to do. From finding cases to slove, killing of APC's, disarming bombs and solve crimes just like batman does.

Being Batman

Well being Batman is fun and this games does it so well. 

The Bat Family

Using Robin, Nightwing and Catwoman does bring variety. The dual take downs are awesome when you get to pull it off.

The Final Act 

Awesome being the Joker and in First Person.

The Bad

The Bat Family

We can use them outside their respected play areas. Which kind of sucks. Robin is awesome since he as the shield

The Riddler Trophies 

Every Batman games has that. And every time it sucks balls. Finding all of them is damn hard...

Overall

The game is awesome but the challenges are hard as nails.

Status

Finished 95% of the game. Trying to finish parts of Gotham and riddler...

5/5
