I'm with you though The Joker. Origins was my favorite and if we got a remaster of that and it included all the DLC. Man I'd love to replay that game and Cold Cold Heart in a higher HD remaster.
 
A Cold, Cold Heart was so ridiculously good. Had a fun boss battle that served as a prequel to the one in City, it featured a collective of Gotham regulars and recnognisables - The Penguin, Anarky thugs, Ferris Boyle, Vicki Vale, Alfred, and Origins' own Ricky Loose Lips Leblanc. It featured cool new enemy types in the freeze mercs, and had some awesome gameplay through Wayne Manor burning and no, as well as Gothcorp.

And it was a great story, expanding upon Heart of Ice and further developing Batman as a character.

Comparatively both Arkham Knight and its DLC have come up immensely short. One of the best things about City were its great set pieces leading up to boss battles - the descent into Wonder City, the slog through to Penguin and Solomon Grundy, the climb up Woner Tower and my personal favourite, the second infiltration of the Steel Mill.

I can't think of anything like that in Arkham Knight. Getting to the ARkham Knight boss 'battle' is a slog - but not a fun one, and almost any other scene is brought down by tank battles or bad twists. The only thing that compares is the three Jokers in Panessa studios. That would be it.

Seriously, someone managed to make infiltrating enemy blimps unfun.

We've had a lot of requests for the batsuit to go with the Tumbler. We hear you so we're going to make it happen! #BatPeoplePower (1/2)

Warning: the suits take a very long time to build because of the insane amount of detail. Expect it near the end of the year. (2/2)
Unexpected.

:up:

Unexpected.

Happy days :up:

I can wait til the end of the year. I mean we're nearly out of September anyway.
 
I also really loved the atmosphere of Origins. Think for me it had the best feel of all in the series. The snow, the Christmas decorations. Knight really could've done more with the Halloween atmosphere especially with Scarecrow. Missed opportunity.

Seeing it in Hill's words is even better. I can't wait.

Yeah 95% of the time I forgot it was meant to be Halloween. I'd usually be reminded because I hear one of the thugs mention it. In Origins I never forgot it was Christmas time. Festive atmosphere and decor just about everywhere, minus obvious places like the sewers lol.

I mean Alfred even calls to wish you a Merry Christmas when it hits midnight. I loved those little subtle character moments in Origins.

I was just gonna mention that moment Joker. When Alfred wishes him a merry Christmas. Loved that little moment.
 
personally, i would like the Batman Begins suit instead of the TDK/TDKR suit
 
Any bring up wanting the Batman Returns and Burton Catwoman as a skin or dlc? That'd be neat.
 
1) I'm so thrilled we're actually getting the TDK suit!!! That's a little dream come true! What a pleasant surprise!

2) Agreed on the HUGE missed opportunity with Halloween and Scarecrow. I mean c'mon, that's as good a pairing as you can get and they did zilch with it. The Christmas atmosphere really made AO for me.
 
We got more of a Halloween vibe in Asylum with the scarecrow nightmares. Correct me if I am wrong but I could've sworn in some of those nightmares fighting skeletons.
 
Yeah you do in two out of the three of them. I loved those fear gas sequences. I was sure we'd get at least one in AK with Scarecrow being the main villain and all.
 
Ahh I knew I was right. Been a long time since I've played Asylum or City.

if they are now going to release the suit out because people were asking for it, why not just have one with the Tumbler anyway? Surely they would know people would be wanting one, so why not just do what they did with the '89 Batmobile and package it with the Batsuit?

It seems like they're trying to go for a good guy Rocksteady angle here to make up for all the disappointing DLC so far, "We listen to you guys! we'll give you what you ask for!"
 
maybe they are just surprised that people want a batskin with a cowl that looks like a lightbulb
 
omg did I say that out loud? I meant just to think that to myself :o
 
Oh damn, so they're really making a Nolan suit? But which one...I hope Batman Begins.
 
I hope it's Batman Begins suit but most likely it will be the TDK one. That suit didn't look good at all in the movie. BB suit is better:

According to the news on the front page. Hill is asking fans which suit they want.

I saw that on twitter. So far the TDK one is winning by a huge landslide :woot:

The Snyder suit better be the Bat-battle suit with glowy eyes.

I don't know about that, but I have to admit I'm skeptic that just all of sudden they've decided to make a Nolan suit after fan demand, since they're undoubtedly aware that fan demand for that skin has been there for a long time. My guess is that whatever issue they had with putting the suit in was cleared up, and they just want to spin it in a more positive, fanfare light.

Not that it matters, though. People who want that [blackout]horrible[/blackout] suit will finally get it after asking for it for so long.
