Arkham City Follow-Up to Star the Justice League?

It looks like they’re taking steps to change that however as rumors are swirling that the follow-up to Arkham City will follow in the footsteps of the latest LEGO Batman game and feature the Justice League in some capacity! Variety is reporting that the next game will go back to Batman’s first encounter with the Joker and will be themed around the silver age of comics.

No thanks.

Batman is by far the strongest out of the DC lineup. The rest of the Justice League & their villainous counterparts are kinda kitschy (sorry Supe's but it's true).

The dark sense of realism in the Arkham games doesn't translate to the rest of DC's universe.

WeskerChildReborned4328d ago

True, i like the dark sense and IMO the JL doesn't really belong in it. I also think they should just bring in more realistic heros and not like superheros that could fly or have super strength.

nveenio4327d ago (Edited 4327d ago )

Honestly, I trust the Arkham devs to do justice to the DC universe. They've really taken and perfected Batman, and I don't believe that they would include Superman, Flash, etc, without knowing they can make it awesome.

That being said, I think the Justice League is stupid. I always have. Why does Superman need help? It doesn't make sense. At the very most, he could hire an office assistant that basically just moves kryptonite away... It just doesn't make sense. I can see why Batman might need Superman...but Superman needing Batman? Batman is a little overqualified to hide rocks.

SilentNegotiator4327d ago

Dark or not, I just want to see a good *Superman* game in my life time. PLEASE.

***"The dark sense of realism in the Arkham games doesn't translate to the rest of DC's universe."***

Exactly.

mafiahajeri4328d ago (Edited 4328d ago )

Without BAtman DC is pretty meh anyway I always said I wanted a Baatman prequel where batman is in his humble beginnings where you start him when he's not even called batman would be epic think something along the lines of mask of the phantasm. Also I don't like the justice league idea.

ElasticLove4328d ago (Edited 4328d ago )

I can see characters like Black Canary, Huntress, and Green Arrow making a appearance in the game. But the rest of them would seem out of place.

Doesn't really fit the atmosphere of the game seeing characters like The Flash, Green Lantern, and Superman vooming around the city, taking out every bad-guy on the streets of Gotham in a matter of seconds.

WeskerChildReborned4328d ago

Nah, JL doesn't seem like they would fit in Rocksteady's Batman games.

NYC_Gamer4328d ago

I'd rather Rocksteady keep Batman games separate from Justice League

WeskerChildReborned4328d ago

Yea, the only people i would want to see appear in the next game really is people who actually originated in the Batman series like maybe Jason Todd as Red Hood.

The Arkham games are largely excellent, a shame they are being followed up by that god awful looking suicide squad game.

RaidenBlack214d ago

All 4 Arkham games are just amazing...
With the Gotham Knights turning out sub par, hope the Suicide Squad fails as well... So that both Rocksteady and WB Montreal goes back to creating good single player DC games ...
A batman beyond game maybe?

anal_vegan_moans213d ago

Having the game fail would make it harder for them to get funding for their next game, please don't wish this on them. They already delayed the game a whole year after backlash, so we still have to wait and see how it will turn out.

GhostScholar213d ago

I think asylum and origins were great. City was good. Knight was horrible.

Ezio2048214d ago

You can't expect a game to match 96-94 meta apple for apple. Different era and different gen. No need to diminish either game's achievement. Arkham City and Spiderman 2 are both amazing sequels that improved upon their already incredible first parts.

Tacoboto214d ago

To back that up, there are major websites that adjusted their review scales.

IGN used to have a 100 point system; now it's a 10 point system. I remember GameSpot back in 2004 was razed for giving Halo 2 a 9.4 when IGN gave it like a 9.7 or 9.8

darthv72214d ago

Arkham Asylum was great, but when City came out... wow what a total overhaul that was. Nothing has had that type of night/day difference in scope and scale since.

SM2 is looking to be a great game in itself. Definitely an upgrade over the previous entries. Just from the opening battle with sandman, it gives me god of war 2 vibes with how that one opened with the battle with colossus of rhodes. That is still one of my favorite sequels of all time.

Zeke68213d ago

Thanks for the spoiler how the game starts loser...

darthv72213d ago

Zeke... you've had plenty of time to play god of war 2.

GaboonViper214d ago

And right on cue, here comes the downplaying of Insomniacs masterpiece, not gonna work, this game is gonna be beast in success.

BehindTheRows214d ago

From the same folks who gave it a 10/10 no less.

Aloymetal214d ago

I got 80% trophy completion on Ragnarok but left a few of the battles. Will come back to it one day.

Miraak82 321d ago

Dragon Quest 11 is my top pick

RpgSama321d ago

Dragon Quest XI was such an AMAZING game, I had a blast from the very beginning all the way to the very end, it actually got better the more you played, full of surprises as well.

Another game that I enjoyed from the very beginning all the way to the end of the 100% completion was Yakuza: Like a Dragon. Really, really, really fun game with a great heartfelt story.

badz149321d ago (Edited 321d ago )

Where is Horizon Zero Dawn?? where is Ghost of Tsushima?? I just got my Platinum on HZD and is now trying to finish the Frozen Wild expansion. so much care and love went into that game and it really shows. I especially adore the lore and have sunk many hours listening to the logs and reading journals. the back story is great and the gameplay is awesome. can't wait to replay on the hardest difficulty on NG+. next in my list would be to finish GoTsushima

Tacoboto321d ago

Ghost was fantastic especially after Iki Island and the PS5 upgrade. 100%'d that, Horizon Forbidden West (not ZD), GoW (not yet Ragnarok), Spider-Man, and R&C: Rift Apart.

Each one absolutely worth it.

Aloymetal321d ago (Edited 321d ago )

100% I would like to add to you list RDR2, amazing as well and the perks from getting the Legend Of The East outfit is awesome.
Sekiro as well, have to play twice to get it but it's worth it!

Demetrius321d ago

I agree I'm on my 2nd playthroughs of both horizon forbidden West(zero dawn I played also) ghost of Tsushima except I'm replaying it on PS5 this time, the iki island expansion is amazing

ClayRules2012321d ago

Yeah, GoT was already an AMAZING game on PS4, but playing it on PS5, along with that expansion, just even better.

Elda321d ago

I just started my copy of GOW:R, enjoying it so far.

DefenderOfDoom2321d ago (Edited 321d ago )

Okay the title of article should be top 10 , 3rd person games to complete 100 percent. Nine 3rd person games and 1 racing game on this list .
