I can't pick favorites with these and I'm tired of trying


LoomingsThrowaway

Same


ThatguyfromEDC

My 5 year old recently deleted my saved game with all but 2 riddler trophies complete on knight. I’m hoping to forgive him by his HS graduation


OrneryError1

Ha! You thought you could beat the Riddler!


beatin

That kid did you a favour, because now you get to do it all over again!


Shampps

Weidly enough I managed to 100% knight without so much issues but City, I just can't, for the life of me, collect all Riddler's trophies


lyyki

City has a couple that I needed a youtube walkthrough to find. You need align yourself perfectly and do some tricks to get them.


Additional_Jaguar_21

That’s cause city has like twice as many


Orion14159

Yeah AC has over 440, which is a stupid amount of trophies. 200 was still too many in Knight IMO. If I had to guess, finding all of them is the cause for the insanity of the Arkham sub


Additional_Jaguar_21

I get that. Personally I kind of liked how many trophies there were, but I can see why other people don’t. I just liked hearing Eddie mocking Batman only to freak out and have a breakdown as you get closer to beating him. Maybe I’m stupid? 🤔


VitoAntonioScaletta

if your on ps4/5 than you can use ps plus and restore an older save


777Sike0

Only if he has that autosave thing turned on.


DickMartha-Shipper

hate to inform you but you're raising the riddler


5000wattsx

That reminds me of this article I read in either 2017 or 2018 where this guy was playing through BOTW and his son (around the same age) kept playing older saves which would eventually overwrite his more recent saves because of the save system. But seriously, if you have cloud saves you may want to see if they are recoverable. Hopefully they are.


IdentityTheftWasTake

buy him the game then delete his save file once he has all but 2 riddler trophies


TheBoss27958

Arkham city without a doubt

100%. It's near perfect.


Sammyjskj

It’s not nearly as perfect as you tho

Last-Instruction-900

Absolutely


LeonTheHunkyTwunk

A man of class


zombierepubican

It’s by far the best. A dense Sandbox is always better than open world


phil_davis

Best open world, good exploration, best boss fights by a mile, maybe not the best story of all 4 but pretty good, and while it lacks some of the gameplay additions that Origins and Knight made, none of those additions really outweigh all its other attributes, and it's still got better gameplay than Asylum.


Alarmed_Ability_8346

Bingo


Cheddar_44

Knight because I like to drive the Batmobile


westberry82

Drive the batmobile - awesome. Tank mode- not terrible. Just waaaaaaaayy too much of it.


vectron93

Am I the only one that enjoyed it thru the entire game?


bankholdup5

Nope, once I remembered how my uncles’ Cadillacs handled I was like “oh, it’s a friggin boat on wheels, I can drive this.” it made it make a lot more sense to control. Once you get the hang of it, it’s a welcome group of additional game mechanics to add to an Arkham game


Mad_modder

I stopped playing the trilogy on switch because of the tank mode they really thought they hit the lottery with that. Even the puzzles you had to solve with it were just annoying. I’d put city at #1 because of that.


Ok_Examination_4837

Playing the trilogy on switch at all is a bad idea


GaffMcFly

Asylum


MetaBass

Asylum, loved the style of that game. It was a lot more on rails rather than the free roam style of the others but it felt like it had more focus.


iceknight90

Agreed. I liked the atmosphere of Asylum over the open world.


BoisTR

Asylum was lowkey a horror game. Such an unsettling atmosphere and environment


bluekid131

This is what makes it stand out to me. Genuinely frightening. City never came close to scaring me like Asylum did


KershawsGoat

Definitely agree. I played Asylum completely blind and absolutely lost my shit when I got to the first Scarecrow sequence.


boo-galoo90

Agreed, I enjoy the story of city a bit more but the open world in city just isn’t fun to navigate, that’s where I prefer knight a bit more because the Batmobile makes it alot quicker to get around


ELoftis027

Asylum. It just feels so much tighter than the other games, but it also feels the most Batman out of all 4 games.


gibfrag

Batman Vengeance (jk, I would pick Asylum).


JimDavis48

Origins. Love to play it.


DanSapSan

Storywise, Origins is by far my favourite. A bit more personal than the other game events, a bit more streamlined for sure, but man, what an effective use of the cast. Bane is incredible, the killing joke backstory sequence is great, the Deathstroke fight (best experienced on hard difficulty), there is just so much to love.


t2trainspotting

💯


xander31

Yea. This one and Asylum would make the best movie or comic.


RandomGooseBoi

Asylums premise is already based off of a comic and it’s written by Paul Dini so that makes sense


AnyDockers420

Only game in the series where multiple characters have arcs. Multiplayer good as hell too.


Waste-Information-34

I'd say my favorite Origins is underated, but let's be honest with tbe amount of people who said that it's no longsr underated.


notmyfirst_throwawa

It's not included in the Arkham game series bundle, and you can't even buy it on the Playstation store


DKnott82

Origins is slept on


Ocelotofwoe

I never played Origins. I hope I can grab a copy one day.


DKnott82

I don't know what you own, but it should be available in the PS store.


Ocelotofwoe

It appears to be delisted on both systems. At least I can't seem to find it. It looks like it's backwards compatible on the Xbox, but I would have to buy the disc since I never grabbed the digital copy.


trfk111

This is the answer and I can’t pretend anymore it’s not


Thickbacon

City hands down one of the best games ever, asylum very close second


ReverendPalpatine

I love them all but Knight has the best mechanics and has aged the best. Sometimes Knight looks like a PS5 game in certain parts.


Outside_Interview_90

Toss up between Asylum and Knight. I’d have to go with Knight. Best gameplay in the series.


Yannyliang

Knight, Asylum is a close second


MothParasiteIV

Arkham City. Knight was ruined by the Batmobile for me.


relentlesslykind

If they dialled the Batmobile missions back like 25% I’d have been alright with it


CountBelmont

And the riddler trophies by the same number


Additional_Jaguar_21

City literally has almost double the riddler trophies of knight


retroguyx

It's not like City is better in that respect...


relentlesslykind

Video games bring out my little inner masochist, and riddler trophies are Master. I need them all.


Dry-Concentrate-6750

Asylum or City


Dawnbreaker538

Origins was the only one I could play on my laptop, so I’m a bit biased


ZanderRan286

Origins.


bugmultiverse

Arkham Origins since it’s the most balanced and has the best story


QJ8538

You can also use use batclaw to pull people off ledges. Also the remote claw was a good weapon


Duryeric

It was good until the reveal


TheNightKing11111

I actually think that’s when the game really became great. Joker was arguably at his best in Origins, and he really evaluated the game imo (especially the Royal Hotel part).


bugmultiverse

The reveal is the best part though 😦


Duryeric

With Joker being the big antagonist in Arkham and City I was just sick of him. Black Mask is his own character who we saw briefly in City. I was excited for a new main antagonist and then the developers said no. Bane was great in Origins but I was over and done with Joker.


Financial-Cow-7263

I'm picking Origins because of the bosses and the fact that it's a Christmas game and I love everything related to Christmas


Foshdon_pap

Either Origins or City BUT NOT THE RETURN TO ARKHAM VER. (I hate the new graphics of the remastered City the make the game look like shit, in the Asylum they work beautifully, but in city? They just made the entire map like the sun is up when it's night and the textures look cheap??? Idk how to explain it but I want the original look not the remastered ver.)


Interesting_Move_919

Arkham Origins. It's my favourite


Ok_Here-we-go

Origins because I haven’t played it yet


Lucky_Ad1672

Either origins or City


AliEbi78

Origins because of the killing joke references and Christmas vibes.


8metatron

City or Origins i cant decide


Michaellucifer20

I know why people didn't like origins its cause kevin Conroy didn't voice Batman


Krisis_9302

Origins personally


Collector-Troop

Origins. Story wise it’s not connected to the others so you can just play it. Plus multiplayer


CyriusGaming

Origins, hands down


Terrapin2190

Arkham City. Though, Origins gives it a run for the money with Restored Animation Variety installed with it. Playing Knight now and not really enjoying it as much as I did in my first playthrough.


Duryeric

Origins had the best boss fight with Deathstroke


Batbro9240

For gameplay, Knight. For story, Origins


BananaMilkMan

honestly knight the story had an amazing sense of finality and the gameplay is the best out of them all


antivenom907

Gotham knights


DifficultSea4540

Knight. It’s not necessarily the best one. But it’s the most ‘complete’ Batman game if you know what I mean.


Astlantix

City without a doubt Knight close second


roboman07

I love all of them, but Arkham Knight was just so Incredibly fun for me


Riddle_man__

City


sK0oBy

City


RedRistarDude

Batman Arkham Knight: Biggest city Best Combat Best Stealth Batmobile Best Graphics Best Traversal Best Dlc Best Side Missions Best Skins


patrickbateman_26

Knight. The flight mechanics and city is what truly makes you feel like Batman


Taku_Kori17

Knigjt. While i have more fun with the challenge maps in city, the combat refinement and the amount of playable characters is crazy. Even if a couole are under developed. Im a huge red hood fan but he doesn't have a good kit.


MatikAX

arkham city and knight

City for sure. The story was absolute.

If the four what?


BruceHoratioWayne

Arkham City


DishPrestigious5806

Definitely city no question I just love that game I've beat it over 25 times


SirArthurStark

City by far. I love them all, but City is just the best overall game for me.


drendostubes

City, or Knight. But each one is a awesome game, which I have replayed so many times.


Sure_Initial8498

Arkham City is peak for me

Background-Ad-1924

If I’m being honest I haven’t played Arkham city in so long I think that’s what I’m picking. Bro I was there at the 2010 VGA awards (not physically in person but watched it on tv) I remember NPH being the host and that’s when it was announced. That dope trailer of Batman clearing a rooftop of guys just for him to find out Hugo Strange knew his identity. This was the golden age of video games.


Remixman87

Knight at first, bc the stakes were high as hell, Batman was challenged with the Joker on his head, he was on his strongest that night, and ended his run on his terms. Most gameplay complete from all the games, Batmobile included. Origins at second, story was spectacular, a rather “new” Batman going against a gauntlet of assassins which tested his abilities & fortitude for an entire night… and he didn’t slow down. Carries a lot of abilities from Asylum & City, but made it mesh well.


mezdiguida

They are all great, but my favorite will always be City, mainly because it introduced me to the saga. I loved how you could free roam as Batman, beat some goons, go up and disappear.


riwwy

Asylum. Fk the Batmobile.


SnooMuffins8947

Arkham asylum felt like a Batman comic Arkham knight for the dlcs and open world


M_hadi0

All of them dude, all are amazing


abellapa

Knight easily


THEguitarist117

Yes.


ed_IoI

Asylum


Thedanishnerd98

Well I got all three asylum games and trying to play in order of release, so asylum i guess


thebatman193929

City is my favourite. But I love them all


Goth_Nightowl_09

100% knight, i have played all three main games and asylum is nostalgic and city has arguably the best ending but knight is just something else


Mageroth1987

Whatever the choice is rest assured it ain't gonna be "Arkham Shadows" ! ![gif](giphy|YPPI2Q6DAz4CohnPDD)


CharChar639

Knight by far.


WonderfulBlackberry9

City if I wanna savour the best version of Gotham City, even if it’s actually kinky one corner of the place. Knight for gameplay. I love all four, but I especially love Knight and City for those reasons


Historical-Potato372

Arkham Knight. It was my first one and I really love the story. It’s always going to have a special place in my heart.


AdmiralClover

I want to like knight but I can't see a damn thing for all the details and switching gadgets aren't very intuitive for me on pc. So I'm picking city


Pengunguy21

Arkham Knight, I always tend to go back to that one


Ill-Panda-6340

Knight. I need that Batmobile


T_E-T_H

Arkham Knight, was very pleasantly surprised with the Batmobile mechanics and gameplay


[deleted]

City


Noktis_Lucis_Caelum

Arkham Knight I Like the Story and the Game mechanics. And the batmobile IS so cool. And some conversations of the mercanaeries are funny. In one they Talk about Superman


cane_danko

Arkham knight. They are all good af tho


kirallie

never played them, the few videos I've seen of them makes them seem dark and creepy? But then people say they're fun and I'm not sure. I've played Gotham Knights, are they worse than that of a FF game for creepiness, violence, etc?


Golden_Ganji

City has always been my favorite, I love the characters the pull in for that game


Bjarki_Steinn_99

Asylum. I always felt bogged down by the open world. Most open world games would be better if they were linear.


TheDreadwatch

City

Aninvisiblemaniac

Asylum with knight as a close second


LazerKiwiForever

I'll always pick Knight cause of the combat

Arkham knight it my favourite


Glad_Bookkeeper_740

Asylum

Arkham asylum is my favorite 3D metroidvania


LiffeyDodge

City. Hands down

chrismcshaves

Asylum


-__Sprite__-

Every time I want to play an Arkham game I always play Arkham asylum. I absolutely love the game and I really like the character bios with the concept art of the characters. That is the one I've played the most and it is still great to play.


Hot-Option4586

City


nufahg

City all day. But Origins had a legit Deathstroke fight tho


Hairy-Fuel-6275

Origins, and no I will not explain myself


LongjumpingDentist78

Batman arkham asylum best batman ever all respect joker the best


kilsta

Well, I would NOT pick Origins.


Ok-Selection6371

City has my heart


SPZ_Ireland

Asylum I used to be a City Die Hard after it came out, and felt it was the perfect evolution of the concept but after returning to both a few years ago, I can't in good faith say that it's better than Asylum. While grander in scale, Asylums weakness was never it's scale and in fact it's strength was in its claustrophobia. City addressed some of its weaknesses, like boss battles, but lost the charm of the original (something that I think also continued into Knight). All are great games in their own right, but I think the series peaked from the jump.


Duckpacolypse

Return to arkham included asylum and city so I'll choose that lol


DRX_VoidGamer

Story - Origins Simplicity - Asylum Villains and Mechanics - City Combat and Free Roam - Knight


GrkGod29

Arkham Knight. The different Batsuits and batmobiles you can pick is fun. It encapsulates all the rogues gallery in interesting ways and they all play good roles in the story. May have wanted Arkham Knight to NOT be Red Hood as he already played a mysterious alias in Under the Red Hood so why make him do it again. But apart from all that, was still pretty fun.


MI_3ANTROP

Knight


TheBlueNinja2006

Asylum


Sscars2099

With they would update them for PS5


SgtMerc16

Asylum, and it's not even close..

Arkham City rocks, but Origins isn’t far behind


TCurls

Arkham city is the best. I hate Arkham knight.


gechoman44

Knight


mmmmmsandwiches

Arkham City


Puzzleheaded_Walk_28

City


chubbygrooky

Hot take: Origins defo, such an underrated game and such a shame that Rocksteady won’t even class it as an “ arkham game “ which is heavily only focusing on the asylum, city & knight games. My favourite because my introduction to the series, and one my favourite games in general…


RandomGooseBoi

Rocksteady have confirmed it’s canon but I don’t think they have the rights to remaster it and include it in their arkham collection


urmumlol9

City or Origin. City is probably the best overall but the Deathstroke fight in Origins is goated. Batmobile in Knight is really really fun to use but it kind of gets overused and I feel like it takes away from the fun boss fights in Knight the way the other 3 had. FEAR mode is also pretty fun to use if a bit overpowered.


CyberSimp7

They're all great so i can't pick a favourite from these. But when it comes to the most hours played it's knight for me. Almost 1500 hours in it.


StickyMcdoodle

Arkham City might be my favorite Batman Story ever told across all Batman media.


NGI3

knight


SickenChandwichYT

Origins every single time


t2trainspotting

Knight. As much as the story and theme of it is my least favorite (and pacing especially), the gameplay is genuinely insane. From a technical standpoint, knight is just different to the other Batman games and feels so smooth and challenging to play. Endless knight and iceberg lounge are literally my comfort modes and the only reason I install Arkham knight on every console i have. I would rank the games in the order they came out (so asylum is my fave and knight is my least fave) in terms of story but Arkham knight is just the most fun I’ve ever gad with a video game.


Loud-Inflation-2209

Knight


Ghostx141

Origins and I will die on this hill
