I would've put Origins over VR but that's just me.
same
Arkham origins is tied with City for me
@@Darthvader25747I wanna try origins it seems fun especially the gadgets
@@Aqtalni shock gauntlets are busted
@@Darthvader25747Me too
Arkham Knight is a masterclass. Even most recent AAA games can't even compete on any level...(graphics, gameplay or story)
I even love the Batmobile gameplay !
My favorite thing about the Arkham games is that people who don’t really care for superheroes still love the games when they give it a try. It’s usually like 50/50 on Asylum because it’s the worst graphically of the games even when remastered and that throws some off but I’ve gotten non-fans to put days into city and knight - liking the game so much they would get into comics or at least Batman by the end.
loved asylum for so many reasons knight was good but asylum had something special to me
Asylum is by far my favourite one to play. It's quick, it's simple and really immersive.
@@MrEthos FACTS and asylum was the first game in the series i ever played for me
I love Asylum when I’m playing simpler games. But when I play Asylum right after finishing knight, it gets boring real quick
@@StudMacher96 I felt that with some of the Souls games, i've played hundreds of hours of Dark Souls 3 and when I return to Dark Souls 1, the game feels very primitive.
@@StudMacher96 that's cause you're playing after grinding all Riddler trophies or just some other reason?
The aspect I love most about Arkham Batman is that Gotham is a city that creates monsters like Joker, Zsazz, Penguin, Clayface, Croc, Riddler, etc. But in this universe Batman is THE monster that the monsters are afraid of. Aside from Joker every other scum in Gotham is Terrified of the Dark Knight and what he stands for.
Im definitely gonna show my kids these games when they grow up
YESSSSS. I agree about Arkham Knight’s Scarecrow. If they ever brought this version to live action, given scarecrows stature and the fact that he wears a mask, John Noble could totally reprise his role!
I love how you just straight up threw in an edit of Arkham knight 😂 so good! “What’s wrong…scared?” Knight definitely has my favorite dialogue
It was necessary, ain't no way i'm passing up on those incredible cinematics and dialogue
This trilogy is a masterpiece for me. I played and completed every single one. There is so much love from the development team that knows about the universe of the Batman with subtle details and references (you probably saw the Flying Graysons poster in the Panessa Studios elevator if you are a fan of the comics) and even without the affect, these games are arguably awesome. Since i’m a heathen, I played the game with in my home language and I loved it. They gave the role for the French voice of the Joker to Jean-Pierre Moulin (oui oui baguette) who used to dub Mark Hamill in the Animated series and it threw me back all the way to childhood. And I apologize but I have to talk about the french voice of the scarecrow in AA and AK, Vincent Violette (who happened to voice Mickey), who’s doing a fantastic job at it.
I get the critics at the bat-tank bits but I personally had a power trip destroying tanks. And even if AA didn’t age quit well for me, it included so many mechanics that it’s just a classic.
For me
1. Knight
2. Asylum
3. City
4. Origins (although i love it as much as the rest)
Why Knight first? The tank battles ruined it. Honestly here’s my list
1. City
2.Asylum
3. Knight
4. Origins
Your list is nice but idk why everyone is so toxic on knight like i get the tank stuff was over used and the story was predictable but the gameplay was so fun and if I have to be honest it is one of the best looking games I've seen and it was made on the same engine as asylum.I think a people are just a bit too harsh cause of the over use of the tank although I really enjoyed the Riddler stuff with it and it in general although a bit overused.hope this answers your question on why I love knight the most
@@StudMacher96it called an opinion buddy. Anyone can have #1 be whatever they want
@@amannivin1112 I know the tank battles weren’t overused. But they were literally so repetitive. Like I could care less about them. We’re supposed to play as Batman. Not a tank killing mercenary. Also the boss fights were dog water(Firefly Deathstroke, Deacon Blackfire) Plus some of the mechanics made the gameplay way too easy. Didn’t even require that much skill. Though I did enjoy the freedom
@@amannivin1112 I didn't mind the batmobile, in fact I liked the change of gameplay. What annoyed me was that out of 4 Arkham knight boss fights, 3 were in the batmobile. It was used too much in the story, would have been perfectly fine as a traversal tool and the occasional tank fight.
I love the Arkham series. It feels like the main Batman games. It does an awesome job immersing you. The choice inn skins improves the experience so much. Going through the game as your favourite Batman... I only have a top 2 Batman games. Number one is the Arkham series, and number 2 is Batman (NES)
Here's my rankings:
4th: Asylum, don't get me wrong, it's a good game, but the boss fights, the overuse of Titans and to me it feels lackluster compared to the rest of the franchise.
3rd: Knight, yeah there's a lot of being in the tank, but here's the stats, you're in it less than 20% of the game, ultimately it's a great ending to the saga with an ending that makes you wonder (somewhat similar to the dark knight rises ending)
2nd: City, I should point this out that today it's 2nd, but tomorrow it could be 1st, that's how much I love the top 2, I cannot give enough praise to this game that hasn't been given already.
1st: Origins, right now I've put this above City due to the Freeze fight, yeah, City had a great one, but Origins had a whole DLC of building compared to I need to kill you
man now I got another game series on my to play list. Will take me a while to get to play the arkham games but from what you said it'll be worth while
Yes, bro if anything he undersells them. That's how good the games are.
If you’ve never played this game, you’re missing out
I remember playing arkham asylum for the first time, it was certainly one of my favourite and most memorable games.
I love the Arkham series! I gotta get these games back
You can't ignore origins, some people don't like the game but it's apart of the series and a great overall game. I do however agree that this Batman is my favorite Batman
didn't ignore origins, just didn't have enough time to include it.
@@MrEthosbruh thats ignoring it, nevertheless a great video
@@yert1832 Thank you.
Origins wasn’t made by Rocksteady. That’s why alot of people refer to “The Arkham Trilogy”. Asylum, City, and Knight are all masterpieces, all made by Rocksteady. And all 3 were fantastic fun experiences ready to be enjoyed on the day they were released. Origins was made by WB Montreal and when it was released it was a damn near unplayable mess of game breaking, save files getting corrupted, ridiculously frustrating bugs. It took multiple patches over a couple months before it was finally streamlined enough to actually enjoy.
@@garcher7169About time someone else says it. Origins is like a knockoff of the original. That's why I dismiss it.
I am shocked. Shocked. Shocked that you don’t have at least 500k+ subs bro the quality of this content is amazing, you will make it big soon.
one day man. Thank you❤
@@MrEthos no problem dude.
Such a great breakdown of the Arkham games!
I absolutely love this video 👍
the fact that the barb wire that was wrapped around Jason that whole time, gave him a slouch when he stands and can see that throughout the game if you look closely is pretty damn cool
So glad to see someone else who’s favourite is Arkham Knight
I thought asylum and Arkham knight were incredible Arkham knight being one of my favourite games ever the way Gotham is presented is fantastic the story was amazing and all the other side missions still remember absolutely shitting my pants first time i encountered manbat and having Conroy and Hamill was just fantastic
Well said! This is the definitive Batman for me as well. When I imagine Batman, what comes to my imagination is the Arkham batman with Kevin's voice. Apart from the obviously great combat mechanics and narrative, I mostly love how well they portrayed his detective aspects in the game. The crime scenes and planning can really take it to the next level. I wish the movies could capture this more. At the core, that's what he is.
I still say this, Arkham Knight has the best graphics of any game to date.
Batman Arkham asylum and city are my favorite games.
after replaying all games on pc in 4 days i can safely say:
asylum and city sometimes have this weird thing when you press mouse button to counter the enemy and batman pulls out a batarang - asylum more than city
that's annoying and the reason of 99% of times i got hit + you can't interrupt the animation.
origins allowes you to interrupt the animation and counter the enemy right after doing a takedown but it has different problems like ground takedown not working sometimes
"press LCtrl + RMB" and that can result in batman crouching adn pulling out whatever gadget you have selected
and sometimes important things don't spawn, like being softlocked because black mask's drug contained doesn't spawn or entire room is just a black void
but then again people complaina bout many problems wich i didn't had so i guess it wasn't that bad.
and knight is where it is all refined to perfection - now, there was some talks about release being borderline unplayable but i don't know anything about that i don't buy on release.
mechanics, graphics, physics, city everything.
if there was ever a true "remaster" or "remake" they should take all arkham games and put them on technology of arkham knight
and even better allowing us to play them in story order one after another.
You beat the whole series in 4 days?
Only thing I don’t like about knight is how underused scarecrow is, you are absolutely right he’s amazing everything about him is perfect but I need more screen time!!!
I think its ALMOST a perfect series save for a few pitfalls. City is a masterpiece
Bruh no Origins? Lame, especially since it holds more weight than VR. Still a good video regardless
didn't have enough time to include, I already rushed this video a bit; thank you for the comment tho
0:02 You put VR over Origins!
let me explain, that little animation type thing with the titles are from Rocksteadys website. Rocksteady didn't make Origins, and i don't really know how to actually animate things so i just took what i had. I didn't put VR over Origins, this was simply a case of me taking something i thought looked cool from a website.
@@MrEthos sorry mate
no worries, thanks for watching and commenting
honestly i 100% stand with you knight is the best(best graphics, best gameplay, most badass and best batman ever) we got to play as everybody and my favorite part you get to tag team with nightwing my favorite robin this game just hits different for me, say wat u will about tanks but this is the definitive batman experience it does everything the other games did right but on a completely different level, if i were to list my fav games it would be knight, origins(really loved the rash, violent young batman, he's a rookie but a badass unstoppable rookie ), city and asylum
rip kevin conroy
Imo this is my favorite literation of Batman
Definitely.
Same here
Also, Batman Arkham VR was good
Arkham VR was good but sadly too short.
Origins is again slept on
Because it's not made by Rocksteady.
I prefer all of these over Gotham Knights which wasn't as I expected at all ! 💔
So you expected Gotham Knights to be better than the Arkham series? That's how it was supposed to be, but sadly Gotham Knights wasn't that good (haven't played it tho). Thanks for watcing and commenting!
@@MrEthos no i didn't expect it to be better but a decent game at least ! Well you are lucky because you haven't played it 😅
And you are welcome you have a great channel 🌺
@@pinkprincess7280 Thank you
Also I think Scarecrows best design is Injustice 2 but I did like the character itself here better.
I would rank them as follows:
1. Arkham Knight 10/10
2. Arkham Origins 9.2/10
3. Arkham City 9/10
4. Arkham Asylum 8/10
Prolly one of the most consistent franchises in gaming and in my opinion the definitive non-comic iteration of Batman. I especially love the stealth mechanics in knight with how dynamic those sections are truly made with the addition of how much of the environment and your gadgets can be used to set up traps and when you combine those skills with the fear takedown you can do some of the shit you’d imagine Batman doing in the Nolan trilogy like him taking down an entire room of armed thugs within seconds by chaining environmental takedowns together with the fear takedowns, or setting a trap that takes down multiple enemies and the loudness of that trap brings a whole ass group together for you to do a fear takedown on. It’s just so sick and dynamic.
I disagree, I think the best one is Asylum. It was the original, absolutely groundbreaking and incredibly unique. Obviously sure, the later games improved on top of Asylum... but Asylum was the most consistent game by far. Again just an opinion, but out of them all Asylum had the least amount of flaws that I at least noticed.
Because you don't only play, but you feel like the world's greatest detective.
Arkham Asylum was actually horrifying
18:21 I understood that reference from The Batman
"Restrained". Rightt
Batman is VERY restrained, he can easily kill somebody with a single punch. That's the whole inner-battle within Batman, he doesn't want to lose control.
your voice is like your batman
the only correct comment on this video😂
@@MrEthosYou would easily be a good Batman! 👍🏻
My List:
1. City
2. Origins
3. Asylum & Knight
UA-cam Recommended
Origins?
I really wanted to talk about Origins but didn't have enough time to include it in the video...
@@MrEthos fair
@@MrEthos, you can maybe try to complete Gotham Knights and make a video on Batman-related games created by WB Games Montreal.
@@rodarollada thanks for the suggestion, i'm busy with Souls content for a bit tho
batman didn't know jason was alive because to batman jason has been dead for a few years
Arkham Series Batman is the Best Batman of all Time ,Much better than the movie versions
if there is crossover between dc / marvel avengers will have hard time to defeat Batman
i have the same standpoint arkham is just something completley out of a canvas bro especially for anyone fond of batman i want to make a similar vid
Arkham knight makes me think “huh, the joker would be a joy to hang out with if he weren’t evil”
Here’s hoping Gunn takes some inspiration from the Arkham games
Someone pointed out how in The Batman, Batman knocks back several officers by twirling his cape in the police station, just like in the Arkham Games.
@@MrEthos or he could utilise batfleck properly since hes the most capable out of any live action batman to just be like Arkham Batman or the comic counterparts..... just look at the warehouse scene from BvS
@@godzillazfriction i've seen that scene, it's fantastic. Still need to watch BvS. Good point, and thanks for watching!
Why VR and not Origins? VR is just a shorter version of City. Might as well have put Arkham City Armored Edition up there, as it is also a different version of City.
I’m Batman
I stopped listening when you said that Jason Todd was a new character made just for this series.
Jason wasn't but the arkham knight was
I watched it the whole way through and i enjoyed it except for 19:22 I feel like there's this weird ass Mandela effect when it comes to these games like nowhere in this game or any of it's media was it ever implied that Jason was SA'd during his torture at the asylum and I hate how wide spread that bullshit misinformation became so much so that people will argue that it's a fact without providing information
@@TooTurntTokyo yeah, I never thought of SA during the game, I personally don't think it's Joker's style (he was deliberately trying to break Jim when he did it to Barbara in the Killing Joke, so different goal, but I guess makes it an option), but I guess it's one of those, who knows what deranged forms of torture the Joker is performing that we don't get shown? thing.
That's not what he said. He said the Arkham Knight was.
I'm a bit late to this comment but this was just something that seemed plausible to me when I was making this video. There's no official info on Jason actually being SA'd and I should've been more clear on the fact that it was just a theory/speculation.
Bro actually put VR before Origins even though Origins explores the relationship between Joker and Batman the best💀😭
I didn't... for the 100th time: I briefly mentioned VR when talking about Jason Todd, I didn't cover Arkham VR or Origins because I didn't have time to include them.
Origins has no part in the Arkham Trilogy. It wasn't made by Rocksteady.
Uh why is origins not on here
pinned comment
Because it sucks.
Jason wasn’t tortured there they just reused the assets it isn’t a one to one area
Can you mention at what time I talked about that in the video? I remember saying he was tortured at the Asylum, which he was; but it was an abandoned wing.
batman didn't know jason was alive
As a arkham fan excluding unfarly arkham origins that actually is cannon despite you like it or not wichs i didnt fully understand that,"i respect the fact that someone just prefer the others instead it ,thats ok but,bashing the game with no reason at all ,just bothers me,cause at least is so great as the others ,and realy like the story as well ,just didnt apport nothing new cause that was reserve to the next generation
I still love to see a origins remaster ,he deserved to be includet in the context of this epic saga
As an arkham fan and creator of this video, I didn't include it because of time constraints. It is canon and a big part of the story, but generally was a lesser game when compared to the other three.
"Something in my as"
Origins is the best. You should have included it. Even if it wasn’t made by Rocksteady.
I think you misunderstood why I didn't include Origins. I wanted to include Origins, but If I had included it I would have had to sacrifice one of the three other games or cover all of the games in a much more shallow way. I'll make an Origins video in the future.
This man put VR over Origins. 😢
bro wdym? I briefly mentioned VR as an example of Jason's torture... and I already rushed this video like hell, so i didn't have time to talk about Origins or VR properly. Read the pinned comment.
I think Azreal needs a standalone game. Like Gotham knights but Barbra is replaced with Azreal since she's in a wheel chair.
Azrael wouldn't really make sense for Gotham knights cause he's not apart of the Bar Family
Bat family
i think the character itself has no depth comapred to other iterations like BTAS, but every other thing is amazing
I don't think that's because the character has no depth, but because the game's have a single tone to them. Arkham Batman has to stay serious and focused in each game, there's really no depth to be explored during the game's events
Arkham VR but not origins? I think thats a crime my dude, voice actors ignored origins is a Perfect depiction of a young and angry Bruce. Also its the only game which has a not terrible bane
I think this is the 10th comment about me "putting Arkham VR over Origins" when no, I did not; I briefly talked about Jason Todd's screams in VR but didn't cover either of the games due to time constraints. The visuals at the beginning of the video that list the Arkham Games, isn't mine; it's directly from Rocksteadys website.
Why is Arkham Origins always left out in these videos????
It wasn't a Rocksteady game, and read the pinned comment bro
Why does it matter if it's a Rocksteady game or not it's still an Arkham Game and you not including Origins in the video will only make new comers to the series think there was only 3 main titles in the franchise and if you had time to put the VR game in the video then you definitely had time to put Origins in it.
@@SauciestPrince6 I barely even covered VR, literally just mentioned the Jason Todd screaming hallucinations. I'm quite positive that new comers to the series will look up the games themselves, and find that Origins is also a part of the series.
@@SauciestPrince6that's because origins ISN'T part of the main series. Rocksteady only made 3.
@@themonsterunderyourbed9408 Origins is part of the main series even if it's not made by RockSteady it's still 100% canon.
Origins???
read the pinned comment
Oh sorry my bad
I still think Knight is overrated. By far my least favorite of the franchise.
The lack of bosses and the excessive use of the tankmobile combined with the predictable story and cliches of the title villain... really make me leave him after Origins for example because Origins still has at least interesting boss fights and a fun narrative.
Fair point, thanks for the comment!
1. Knight 2. City 3. Asylum 4. Origins. Just my opinion.
good ranking.
Okay so, while I absolutely love the series and Arkham Knight, I did come up with a way they could have made Arkham Knight better. Scarecrow is still around trying to do exactly what he does in the game and Joker is trying to take over Batman’s mind. But instead of the militia, the mysterious Arkham Knight, former pawn of Rā’s Al Ghul, is now the only left to lead the League of Assassins and bring about Gotham’s reckoning. The League of Assassins have their entire army in Gotham to avenge their former leader. By the end of the game we learn the Arkham Knight is Jason Todd, who after dying at Joker’s hands, was resurrected by Rā’s and indoctrinated by him. After Jason becomes Red Hood, Deathstroke is left leading the League until the end of his side quest. Scarecrow and Joker’s stories go like normal except that Scarecrow was working with the League to get his revenge
That's an interesting way to approach it, it could work; the militia part was one of my least favorite parts about the story of AK, so replacing it with something more familiar like the League of Assassins could actually be something worthwhile.
Arkham Origins fanboys are as obnoxious as Spider-Man fans at this point. Cringe comment section.
it's a great game, but in all honesty; not as special as the Rockstar Arkham games.
@@MrEthos I liked it for what it was when I first played it, but honestly the Origins fanboys ruined the game for me. They love to insert it into every conversation and act all superior about it. It's obnoxious. The trilogy itself is a masterpiece though, some of the best video games of the 21st century.
@@dylanwolf1773 Completely agree.
@@dylanwolf1773, maybe you just try to don't give a dang about it? It seems you're too fixated on some "fanboys".
Is there a lore reason for this am I stupid?
Just totally glossed over Origins 🤣 WB would love you
Origins deserves it's own video.
I like knight its impressive as hell and fun for the most part but I think it just has so many things I didn't like as well the batmobile was just too too much I wanna do more batman more stealth action more bosses the game doesn't have any bosses
And I didn't like that nearly all the characters like pinguin and two face and death stroke were all just side missions
Also Croc and freeze and others were dlc for some reason
I think they put Croc and Freeze into the DLC side quest because the base campaign is already too packed with events for just one night. So, DLC side quests are happening the other night, IIRC. Deathstroke boss fight in Arkham Knight was really anticlimactic, though.
No Origins :(
sadly didn't have time for it.
Origins?😢
will make a video on Origins in the future.
How did I only just now know that John Noble was Scarecrow???????
Because you are obtuse. I recognized him the first sentence he spoke.

I hate people beating on origins. If it was remastered like the rest so that more people could play it, more people would like it
Origins is great, I think people just beat on it because Rocksteady didn't make it themselves.
@@MrEthosThey tried to imitate Rocksteady but failed miserably and had to patch the game a ton to make it playable.

jason was possibly raped??? thats what u meant by toyed with?
Yup, there was a line said by someone in the series that Joker's goons would go to Jason's cell to "relieve themselves"... It's not 100% confirmed but it's heavily implied.
You know what ìf it wasn't for Batman whose kn
If it wasn't for Batman who knows how Gotham City will be cause the regular police in Gotham City couldn't handle The Joker Two Faces and Cat woman...... You Feel Me
There's also the point that some villains became bad just to beat Batman, good point tho
It’s not a masterpiece . Story could have been a tiny bit better . Overused the Batmobile & when I say overused I mean OVERUSED
Idk what the fuss is about , just resently finished knight and as I recall the batmobile is yes used more that needed but I don't mind it ,in fact i found the Riddler races , riddles and the battles fun , except the stealth battles (not bad but I don't enjoy it as much as the the other stuff)
to be clear, the masterpiece i was talking about is the ENTIRE Series.
No. Your opinion is trash. All three are masterpieces. The batmobile was awesome in both modes.
😆🤣😆🤣😆
You guys love using that Word a lot when it comes to Batman "Masterpiece"
Hes a Masterpiece at Child Grooming
Smh
ok...?
This joke is just super stupid, lil bro.
I love knight for combat, city I find the one I replay the most with it’s good story, asylum is just pure fun, origins is unique but not too different in a way, it has good aesthetics (nothing on asylum obvs) and imo the best boss fights. I love this game series and grew up with it since I was about 4/5 and these games have always had a special place in my heart. I think about these games all the time, when I think Batman, HE comes to mind. I have a poster of the origins wanted poster on my wall. I love Batman Arkham. 🥹
Bro finds Batman relatable ☠️☠️☠️
Late to this comment but if I remember correctly, I said that I related to the Arkham Batman the most (out of all the other versions of Batman)
Tf is peoples problem with origins dawg
I don't think anyone has a problem with Origins...?
