Batman: Arkham Origins

I'm getting this on PC, as opposed to console, for the first time - can anyone recommend a good site for getting it cheaper, like buying a steam key or something?

gamefly.co.uk have it for £24 if you use the discount code GFDSEP20UK. I haven't seen any cheaper yet.

This may have been asked before, but was looking at the box art on Amazon and saw it say the Deathstroke DLC isn't on all platforms.

So anyone know what platforms are getting it? I was hoping to get the Wii U version.

The multiplayer ones look like a chore if it's not fun to play.

Well the makers seemed to think that the combat challenges were a good fun addition. I enjoyed the predator challenges but the combat challenges were extremely mundane, and there were so many more of them.

This gives me reason to believe that the whole multiplayer could be quantity over quality filler.

I ****ing hate multiplayer trophies.

Am I the only one that couldn`t be arsed by the Multiplayer. Just hope the campaign ain`t short & they put in a lot of Challenge Maps.

The Batman Arkham facebook page posted this image with the caption "Bruce and Alfred are not the only ones hanging around in the Batcave".



Please be ManBat & not just a close up of a normal Bat.

100% agree, across all the games I like (Assassin's Creed, Tomb Raider, Uncharted, GTA etc.).

Which is why I ****ing hate multiplayer trophies.

I platinumed the first two Batmans and now I'm not going to bother with this one, shame.

(Yes, I realise people may look at this and say 'why bother with trophies in the first place', but I enjoy the challenge and I have no real goals in my life. :pac: )

Zero-Cool

Ah balls, I have the platinum trophies for the last 2 batmans but I think the mp is gonna throw a wrench in the trilogy. If the mp isnt fun, the max level trophies will be out the window.

Never know, the online could be brilliant right?.....riiight??

More f*cking Riddler trophies?

*RAEG*

Varik

I'm not a trophy/achievement whore but for games I really like I'll put the extra work in, I've did it for Red Dead; it's a nice memento to point to for your favorite games.

Which reminds me I need to go back to Uncharted 1 to finish that off.

I only did all the Riddler trophies on Asylum recently, got the map locations online and went from there, only took a couple of hours and was pretty fun. City can feck off though, 440 trophies? no thanks lol the ones i Asylum were much cooler as well, loved all the Amadeus Arkham stuff and the nods to other characters.

Usually I couldn't care less about trophies, they're things I do a part of the game requires but rarely ever go out of my way to do

Zero-Cool

Am I the only one happy with riddler/enigma collectibles. Ya, had to use a guide for some but the games were so fun, didn't mind having an excuse to do more in the map.

krudler

Was The Riddler in Arkham City? as in seen in the game, I can't remember

Yeah he was you collected all the trophies and all the riddles and Batman can track him down

Sarky

If you could be arsed hunting down eleventy billion bloody trophies. Didn't bother with the Catwoman ones, I'd sooner have gone back to getting all the flags in Assassin's Creed 1.

No wonder I never saw him so lol he gets arrested in Asylum if you get all the trophies you hear the cops barging in as he's taunting you.

collectors edition booked, whee!

Personally loved the riddler trophies, took some work to figure out them all. IT may not be a popular opinion, but more of the same and I'm happy

Hercule Poirot

I don't mind the actual riddles, they were kinda fun - but the "throw batarang here, explode this" trophies were just daft, and there were far too many

Where can you get the CE in Ireland

5uspect

The riddler puzzles just polluted the city. They should have been toned right down, or only visible with the map or detective mode.

That too, tons of buildings have ? symbols and banners and lights on them. Least a lot of the ones in Asylum were subtle, like the UV paint where you had to line up the parts of the question marks, or looking for some painting or reference to another character, you had to look for them.

I ordered mine through gamestop, be aware the statue for the European version is batman holding joker by the throat, not the joker statue you get with the us edition.

I think the Riddler trophy is interesting.

First Riddler Trophy (30) - Collect every collectible

So, when you collect 'everything', you get the 1st Riddler trophy. I think it was confirmed Riddler isn't in the game so maybe whatever you can solve or collect, the Riddler makes an appearance with his own set of challenges being a prequel to Asylum when he uses them throughout the game.

TheDoc

Shocking to think I rate the first two as some of the best games of this generation, yet I havn't finished them

Pre-ordered this on Amazon when it was going cheap as chips( Amazon pre-order guarantee is tops) so looking forward to it.

I have copies of the original two on both Xbox and PC, must get them going over the next few weeks and get them finished

maximoose

Going to give AC another play through, I've never tried new game plus so I guess now is the time
