A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Every now and then I go back through the Arkham games and I’m reminded of how well they were made.

Asylum and City were definitely my favourites, but Knight was really good too, and honestly even if you don’t count Origins, it’s still a really fun game regardless. Certainly not as good as the trilogy but it’s still fun to me, anyway.

City was my first, and I played a ton of it back in the day, so it holds a special place in my heart, but I think Asylum is probably my favourite if I remove the nostalgia goggles. It’s just so well made. I know a lot of people who have never played Asylum, and that’s a real shame.

Do you guys have any fond memories playing through any of the Arkham games? Which one is your favourite? Let me know, I’d love to discuss them.

Brilliant series. I enjoyed the combat and storytelling in equal measure. One of the few single-player games where I'd actually play the challenge maps, just because it was so fun beating up on mobs!

Agreed, combat was so satisfying
