    It's pretty decent DLC. Just finished it there. The side quests are short and unnecessary, but the meat of the game is good; There's a nice big detective bit, new enemy type to deal with, and the final fight is good, although rather easy because
    the new XE suit lets you unfreeze vantage points, denying Mr. Freeze a big advantage.
    Story is well-told, reminds me a lot of the Mr. Freeze debut in the animated series. Worth the tenner, definitely.

    What platform? The UBI webstore has the Batman series on discount at the moment, all activate on Steam and there's an additional 10% discount using the code 10THANKS at the checkout.

    Xbox I'm afraid.

    Arrgh! Pkaying cold cold heart and the screen went black going to a cutscene and never came back. Infinite music loop. Had to close the game. Was able to open the xbox menu

    FU WB Montreal. I really despair sometimes...

    It would be too close to arkham knight I guess. Arkham Knight looks like it'll be worth the wait! :)

    I just my playthough of Arkham Origins and enjoying it so far. Very similar to the other two but it has been ages since I played Arkham City that I don't mind. I am a bit worried as I have heard that the game has a bug that can prevent you from finishing the game.

    Is there something to do to avoid this?

    About an hour away from finishing the "I am the night" mode with permanent death, need to go back to it.

    Most of the really horrible bugs have been fixed at this stage, so you shouldn't encounter anything game-breaking hopefully.

    There are still a few game breaking ones, but the normal problems that most experience are fixed.

    On PC I noticed that the objective marker can still sometimes disappear, but that's only game-breaking if you have no idea where to go, and a quick google will show you exactly which building you need to get to. No other real bugs as far as I could see, and I'm about halfway through a second playthrough.

    The kind still in the game are the kind that if you have them you're stuck with them.

    Just finished Arkham Origins a few minutes ago and I loved every moment of it. Well apart from the Deathstroke boss fight. All I remember is hearing bad things about the game but the game is excellent. It is very similar to the previous two but I don't see that as a weakness. I might be tempted to put this forward as the best of the Arkham series.

    You are a bit late, so you've missed most of the issues.

    I liked the Deathstoke fight, that was really the only way to do a fight with him.

    What's the story with this game? I've wanted to buy it for a while since it came down in price but I've been wary with all the reports of it being full of bugs. Wanting to buy it for Xbox 360, should it be fine?

    I only played it for the first time a couple of months ago and I had no issues. I think it might be the best in the series. I was playing on PS3.

    Most have been fixed but there are still some that can just stop you in your tracks and prevent any progression, it random as people can go through the game without issue and others don't.

    Grand, I'm gonna order it then. I went back playing Arkham Asylum just to try and complete all the riddles but I ended up scratching the disc so I might go back to Arkham City while I wait for Origins to arrive.
