So how does Arkham Knight compare?

Im going to get the game this weekend and was wondering how this one compares to the other games. Do you think it is better, worse, or about the same. I just was wondering where I should set my expectations so I dont get disapointed like with Origins. Please no spoilers.

Best in the series.

@_mongul: Really sweet. I cant wait.

What Mongul said.

I'll say this. Arkham Knight had extremely high expectations and the game exactly meets them.

The gameplay is AMAZING and the open world is kind of mind blowing at times. Unfortunately, fhere are a couple of things about the game that make it the "Dark Knight Rises" of the trilogy ( a really enjoyable experience that has a couple of extremely aggravating and disappointing elements that hold it back from being truly great). Still WELL worth your time and money and one of the best games of the year.

@r2datu: I can live with it being the dkr of the trilogy. As long as it is more enjoyable than origins Im good.

Really good game overall. The way the story is written is great overall. And they go into some depths I really didn't see coming. Much better story than Origins and I liked the story more than Asylum.

I found it to be great; it’s just as good as the others.

On the whole, I had some problems with it, but the good outweighed the bad, especially since the good parts of Arkham Knight are better than virtually anything to come before in the series. I'd say Arkham City is the best game on the whole, but the good stuff in Arkham Knight is better than anything in Arkham City. It's just it's got some bad stuff in it that drags down it's overall grade for me.

If you're interested, I did post a very, very, long, spoiler-heavy review on this forum. You can check it out if you're interested to see my full thoughts on it...and if you don't mind spoilers.
