[chickdigger802]

I love the fact that the game starts off in the urban legend phase

 

[Dave_6]

Awesome!

Got my code from GMG this morning! Hype!

I can't wait for this game I've been listening to the Main Theme all day long to get on the mood https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knp_06uwq9M

Spoilers/hinting is becoming stronger by the hour, I think its time I go on a blackout until I get my hands on the game.

 

[chickdigger802]

Someone spoil me if there are ANY new animations not counting cutscene stuff and the one off ones against bosses.

I still haven't found any footage of these new martial artist enemy types.

Origins doesn't have to do something new when the previous games are nearly perfect in terms of gameplay.
Arkham origins feels like Arkham City 2.0 which is a good thing (imo). Can't say anything about the story so far because I've only played 2 1/2 hours.

That's what I wanted to hear.

What extra skins come with the regular version? PC if it matters.

Can you tell me if there is a 3D mode like AC had on PS3?

That's precisely why I held off replaying AC, so I wouldn't get tired of that formula.

Honestly I wasn't expecting another huge evolution in the series from the 2nd studio, just a nice upgrade. Rocksteady's next game (assuming it's Batman) is when I expect the next big evolution in gameplay.

I just hope it's not a MMO or some other online focused game.

About what im expecting. problem is, that i'm not seeing any 'nice upgrade' or really any from footage and dev previews atm. Feels like an expansion pack turned retail game length.

 

[Steve o 3000]

Does this game have 3D support on the console versions?

 

[zainetor]

Sadly I agree. It feels like an expansion and recycled animations dont help at all in this regard.

 

[ahm998]

Still no wii u gameplay until now...!!!

I'm guessing they were afraid of being lynched by fans if they changed too much.

 

[kudoboi]

edit: nvm. choosed GMG

 

[mclem]

Have there been any Digital Foundry-esque comparisons? Pondering whether to jump from 360 (for the previous two) to Wii U.

 

[The perfect Dark]

I don't see any options for 3D-Mode :/ But maybe it's in the main menu (I'm playing SP at the moment), I don't know.

Could you list some pro and cons so far? that'd be great.

Not yet but 360 is two discs. Apparently all of the SP is on one disc though.

This is PERFECT.

The devs never stated they were going to revolutionize the series. In fact, from the very first day Origins seemed like Arkham City 2.0, and I am happy that it turned out like that.

Getting it tomorrow. HYPE

 

[Randdalf]

I'm guessing they were afraid of being lynched by fans if they changed too much.

I think the financial benefits of re-using assets was probably more prominent in their mind.

 

[Some Nobody]

Nnngh. I LOVE this costume. Too bad games can't give costumes additional abilities like they used to. DC 1M Bats could legit fly.

 

[The perfect Dark]

Could you list some pro and cons so far? that'd be great.

hmm I'm still early in the game but so far:

Pro

- fast travel
- combat system (of course)
- great atmosphere
- batcave (you can return at any time and talk to Alfred, change outfits or start training mode)
- art style is still awesome
- collectibles (but no trophies)
- it seems that there are many sidemissions
- graphics (still good)

Cons

- framerate is worse than Arkham City (when gliding)
- graphics (no improvements)
- no riddler trophies

Remember: I've only played 3 1/2 hours and finished the third story mission. Also, I still haven't found all of the sidemission-characters or unlocked all collectible stuff.

About to spoiltag a question about this, it might be something you don't want to read yourself, feel free to ignore if so.

Spoiler

I thought on the achievements list, there was something about riddler trophies/enigma collectibles though?

 

[RPGCrazied]

Does the knightfall pack come with all new copies on PS3? I preordered just yesterday on Amazon and didn't see it. Just the deathstroke dlc.

There are enigma collectibles but no trophies :/

Also, I think there are no riddles where you have to "quick-scan" a room or a wall. I don't know how to describe it but I think you know what I mean
Imo, it's a shame because the quick-scan-button still works.

wait you can change to other skins and costumes before new game + now?

 

[BlueSummers]

More Batman is never a bad thing. I'm ready for more. Only question is do I bite at 60 or wait for a price drop? Reviews shall be my guiding light.

This as well of course. But I am ok with that. After all it takes place in the same city in the same universe.
