    There's a good amount of threads on the Arkham games as a whole, but consider the side missions.

    Which Arkham game (City, Knight, Origins. Asylum didn't have any) had the most fun side missions overall?

    And, which side missions are your favorite from any game? Why?

    Definitely none from Knight, that's for sure.

    @giantsfan576: I'd say City considering that it didnt use like half its advertised villain roster from the campaign as side missions like Origins.

    Haven't played the newest one but my first pay through of city was amazing. The first time I heard that phone ring and answered a call to zsasz. Chills ran up spine.

    City until I've played the new one but I don't think it can beat it.

    @_mongul: Interesting choice, what sets it apart from Riddler in Knight? Or Origins and Asylum for that matter?

    Both of the Hush missions were really good. But too short for my taste, and sort do unnecessary since the world knows Bruce is Batman...

    I liked the Azrael missions in Arkham City but they were sort of anti climactic in Knight.

    The Man Bat mission was really good though.

    @giantsfan576: Never finished Origins 100% tbh.

    Riddler in Knight sort of jumped the shark imo. What with the giant mech and REALLY hammering in the whole "I'm an ego-maniac" thing.

    Riddler in AC had the best riddles, the best final showdown, and balanced his dialouge pretty perfectley.

    @ultrastarkiller: really? I felt like the Azrael missions in AC were anticlimactic. If I recall, you don't do anything but scan the symbols then meet Azrael by the church for some vague dialogue

    @giantsfan576: I liked them they were subtle and not too revealing of anything. It's obvious that they were meant to foreshadow something in the next game and it did so perfectly. The missions in Knight however were just combat challenges, nothing really too it besides Azrael being brainwashed. Then he just kind of disappeared...I thought it would be more epic than that.

    @gor724:

    Yeah, the Perfect Crime mission was probably my favorite of AK, just because we got to examine one of Batman's lesser known, yet more psychologically disturbed villains. Also, tracking down and scanning the bodies was a lot of fun as well (not to sound disturbed myself). You look at the TPC walkthrough on Youtube and most people will agree that Professor Pyg has more screws loose than the Joker (which was Grant Morrison's intent in the first place and coming from his mind is not surprising).

    That Pyg side mission was great imo. Most of Knight's side missions were unbelievably repetitive. Like the Firefly mission (srs Rocksteady? It's the same chase copy and pasted twice!)

    You say Asylum didn't have any but I personally would count the Riddler quest as one. Personally Asylum was my favourite for the riddler story line due to the depth and lore behind the asylum which meant the developers could really put some cool riddles in there due to it already being an established location with backstory. The riddler storyline in knight was a bit disappointing with so few actual riddles mainly just trophies to find.

    AK had a few good side missions but the majority was repetitive and lame, City was better IMO
