You know, a character that has always stood out to me these games in particular is The Riddler. Honestly in my opinion these games have the best depiction of The Riddler outside the comics. Wally Wingert who voiced the character in all 4 games always delivered such an incredible performance that always managed to perfectly capture Riddler's obsessive personality, massive ego and superiority complex.
Hes so petty and annoying its great. Kinda feel bad for him in origins but then i stop feeling bad for him during arkham knight cuz those car trials suck ass.
@@Tuelis97 Rick kid blues, Rust in pieces and call him off but my favorite one is You need to think this through (the one that plays as you scales wonder tower to stop strange)
The cutscene when joker is looking at his decaying face in the mirror, and then turns towards batman and suddenly looks perfectly normal is so legendary.
Son, You forgot to mention the foreshadowing at the beginning when you play as CatWoman. there's a painting from Two Face's vault Called The Duality of Man including Cain and Abel from the bible.
Absolutely astonished at the rate you produce you’re high quality content! I always always love watching your vids and have gone back to watch old ones too just to hear my favorite games talked about again! You’re great!
2011… this is absolutely shocking! Almost 12 years ago and this game is still absolutely brilliant to this day! I play Arkham games pretty much every year (Arkham during Autumn early winter and Uncharted in summer time) and every year I enjoy them just as if not more than before. Well, I’m a huge Batman fan 😅 that’s kinda obvious hehe. But it’s amazing that 12 years ago we are still talking and playing these games! Damn I wish we would get another Arkham masterpiece on current gen. I discovered your channel yesterday, one time RUclips algorithm did something right and displayed your Arkham Asylum video on my main! Instant subscription!! Thank you for fantastic retrospective! It’s pure pleasure to listen to you 😊 can’t wait for Arkham origins and knight!
I have a fellow enjoyer of the same series of games. I play the uncharted series in the new years period chronologically. I play city and asylum's story in November or December every year.
After just watching your Arkham Aslyum video I was excited to see when the next game retrospective of city was up and I was pleasantly happy to see it already uploaded ! Exacted for the next one ‼️
Yo, I love your content, but take care of yourself dude Hour+ long content requires a LOT of recording, script-writing, asset collection and editing I absolutely love what you’re putting out, but the rate @ which you’re doing it is… a real hustle. Hope to be able to keep listening to you for years to come while working, cleaning, gardening, and walking around my city. So, please take care of your health bröther.
I know you've completed the games you've done retrospectives for but I wanted to ask if you have listened to all the interview tapes from the Arkham games? If not I highly recommend watching them because they offer some of the best conversations in the entire Arkham series.
Was looking forward to this once I saw a vid for Asylum was out. Knight is good and Asylum is great but this is one of those games that I can't forget any beat of. Thanks for the love on this Mother's Day son.
I may be in the minority but gameplay aside I actually preferred the story of Asylum. It felt more tightknit and focused whereas City's was following a bunch of different threads. The Scarecrow sequence blew me away in Asylum and I loved the dynamics between him and the Joker, who I felt we didn't really see much of in City. One thing is also the setting of Arkham Asylum had a certain feel to it and the opening where you felt something was off was pretty awesome, and it felt like an extension to the comics whereas City changed the story with how Strange was dealt with as well as the death of the Joker. But that's just my take.
Wish I still had motivation to play open world games. Always feels like a chore whenever I find myself given the freedom to decide what I want to do next. I can respect a good game even if I don't want to play it, of course. I remember my friends going nuts for this game on release.
Really excited for when you get to Arkham Origins next. That game was definitely underrated when it first came out. More recently however people have gone back to this game and have praised it for its great story and amazing performances and it has in my opinion the second best story in the series with the first being Arkham City. It also has the best and most accurate depiction of Bane ever outside the comics.
Would love to hear your long-form thoughts on the watch dogs trilogy. There’s not nearly enough on them in my opinion. Those games have so much good and so much bad it’s fascinating
I love this game, but I remember that I couldn't play it around my Mom because she didn't like Catwomans zipper placement, the nasty thugs, and Two Face saying "bitch." So I had to play Amazing Spider-Man 2 instead, I was less than ecstatic lol
I actually revisit Asylum, City and Origins more often than Knight. Partially because I'm more familiar with the controls of those 3, and going back and fort to Knight is a little jarring (for me). And, Knight is a bit too complicated for me... a personal issue, I know. I also prefer the smaller, more inclosed predator rooms to the completely open (and more sparse) predator areas in Knight.
It's a shame Rocksteady never made a superhero game again. Although it must be a relief for you that you can now move onto a new series because the Batman universe games definitely ended right here.
Its amazing how Rocksteady took the biggest criticism of the previous game (bosses sucked), and had this game had some of the best boss battles in gaming history. While the atmosphere in Asylum was better, City is better in every single other aspect.
I'm that type of gamer who doesn't actually have the money to freely spend on DLC, I'm also the type of gamer who has played this game atleast 6 times just because it's that good. so when you said you start off the game as Catwoman I was wtf, no you don't you start off as Bruce Wayne but then you said DLC & I was like ah, well now that makes more sense. I remember wanting to go into Poison Ivy's lair so bad as a teenager but couldn't as I didn't have Catwoman as a playable character. Really ticked me off hahahaha
I just finished my replay of Arkham city very recently and I really feel Catwoman was completely tacked on like she has little to no bearing on the story
This was my intro to the arhkam series simply cuz i had a ps3 not a 360(my brother had one but i didnt buy games for it) so its hard for me to play asylum pretty sure i did beat but compared to this game its not memorable
I really wished the joker has stay dead after arkham city cause it kinda shoves the villains to the otherside especially in arkham knight like I like him as a character but I don't want him to be the main villain all the time

He's pretty great
Yeeeeas. Best shit
Hes so petty and annoying its great. Kinda feel bad for him in origins but then i stop feeling bad for him during arkham knight cuz those car trials suck ass.
Does he know?
BTAS had a great Riddler
For me it's the soundtrack that hits even after all these years.
Agreed. It’s my ‘running soundtrack’ - nothing like sprinting through the local park listening to ‘I Think You Should Do As He Says’

How are you churning out these quality retrospectives like this? You're blowing away the competition.
The cutscene when joker is looking at his decaying face in the mirror, and then turns towards batman and suddenly looks perfectly normal is so legendary.
Wow I forgot so many of the details in this game. The catwoman parts were sick, loved the addition of Penguin too!
The sense of purpose in the combat system really put me in the Dark Knight's boots. More amazing work, son

Your videos are always so good, Son. I always look forward to them.

Thanks Dad
Good retrospective, but you forgot one side mission, which was my personal favorite: The Identity Thief
I know you've completed the games you've done retrospectives for but I wanted to ask if you have listened to all the interview tapes from the Arkham games? If not I highly recommend watching them because they offer some of the best conversations in the entire Arkham series.
Awesome video and one of my favourite games!!

Been waiting for this one, it's gonna be amazing!
Hope you enjoy!
9:31 “it’s billionaire son… millionaires are so last year”🤣
Arkham City in particular is extremely nostalgic for me.
Me boi.. Chapter 2, Arkham boogaloo
48:55 harley statue jumpscare
Hell yeah, new video! Thanks!
Hope you enjoy!
Too bad Arleen Sorkin didn’t come back at Harley Quinn for Arkham City and Arkham Knight
Cant wait to watch the 4 hour video of all the games together looking forward to the 20 hours of Yakuza video lol

I usually agree, but I think this game came before most of the really egregious open world games.
Really excited for when you get to Arkham Origins next. That game was definitely underrated when it first came out. More recently however people have gone back to this game and have praised it for its great story and amazing performances and it has in my opinion the second best story in the series with the first being Arkham City.

I've been enjoying it, but it definitely has it's issues
@@YourFavoriteSon1 But Bane is really great in it isn't he?
@@The_Phantasm lol
Would love to hear your long-form thoughts on the watch dogs trilogy. There’s not nearly enough on them in my opinion. Those games have so much good and so much bad it’s fascinating
dont know why you used the remaster version for the video, originals visuals look so much better
Good job, Son.
Another great video from MyFavoriteSon ;-)
That's my boy.
43:08 the amazing ending is undercut by a boring catwomen mission unsurprising
*Son* im back from the store with bread & milk. I also bought you some of those Pokéman cards ya like.
good game. good video.
I’ve finished this game 3 times but never all the riddler challenges. There’s too many I get bored.
Fantastic video son!
I wish that there was more lore to the city itself other than a massive free rain prison
I love this game, but I remember that I couldn't play it around my Mom because she didn't like Catwomans zipper placement, the nasty thugs, and Two Face saying "bitch." So I had to play Amazing Spider-Man 2 instead, I was less than ecstatic lol
Definitely should do the last one Arkham knight that’s my favorite one Ever ! 🎉
Happy SonDay!
Happy Sonday

I love Batman Arkham city it’s such amazing sequel to Batman Arkham asylum in my opinion and really great game which I approve.
It's a shame Rocksteady never made a superhero game again. Although it must be a relief for you that you can now move onto a new series because the Batman universe games definitely ended right here.

I just finished my replay of Arkham city very recently and I really feel Catwoman was completely tacked on like she has little to no bearing on the story
Remaster really fucks up a lot of lighting, shadows, coloration and hair. Slightly higher texture resolution and better models do not compensate.
When you doing Resident Evil?😅
This was my intro to the arhkam series simply cuz i had a ps3 not a 360(my brother had one but i didnt buy games for it) so its hard for me to play asylum pretty sure i did beat but compared to this game its not memorable
omg I love this game
I don't see the suicide squad as cannon it's an abomination. Batman last story in my opinion is Arkham Knight
So upset that the Mr. Freeze stealth wasn't a playable stealth map in challenge mode.
7:39 the weaving of the catwomen missions into the main story was my least favorite thing
I really wished the joker has stay dead after arkham city cause it kinda shoves the villains to the otherside especially in arkham knight like I like him as a character but I don't want him to be the main villain all the time
True, probably would've been a better option for the series
@YourFavoriteSon1 like arkham origins I can forgive considering that's a prequel but arkham knight should've just stuck with scarecrow
I disagree, the series is about Batman and Joker. The way they brought Joker back in Arkham Knight was probably the best way they could have done it.
@theonlybilge yeah but when arkham knight teases scarecrow being the villain with no joker you would expect no joker
But he did stay dead, he’s not really there in Arkham knight
37:19 this reflection is just flat out wrong very few of batmans villians would disapear if he never was batman
