Its crazy how well the arkham games hold up even today
Yeah, is awesome because after 14 years the franchise still relevant in superheroes media content.
This same comment is said under every Arkham knight vid
I’m about to replay Arkham knight
@@Kmk-ky9le enjoy man, I can't cause my xbox has a problem with the disco lector and I can't repair it.
I still play Arkham City and Knight these days. Sometimes Origins
I won't say which I think is better since I haven't played Spider-Man 2 yet, but it's impressive that Arkham Knight still looks good 8 years later.
Spiderman 2 is great, about the same as the games in the past as far as I've played, just better graphics and story. Arkham games are still up there, but are getting a bit tiresome from all that they've been making. They should make another superhero game for a change.
Instead of looking for which is better and worse, let's enjoy the two sagas that have provided quality
@@ryker4547 That works
@@danielkeller1337Tiresome? The heck are you on about? The last and final one of the trilogy was back in 2015😂 Is Marvel’s Spider-Man gonna be tiresome too when it ends up as a trilogy also? Or are you just bias?
@@danielkeller1337 Tiresome?
They are not tiresome batman keeps getting the best and most intersting superhero game i hope they keep it up
Arkham knight deserves a next gen patch for the consoles
If that happened it would probably be the best looking game of all time
Not happening lmao
@@ArKnightham Lmao Best joke of All time🤣🤣 Kid didn't even watched Red Dead Redemption 2, Horizon Forbidden West, God of War Ragnarok, The Last of Us 2, almost every single PS Exclusive looks better than Arkham knight
@@ArKnightham Even the 10 year old Grand Theft Auto 5 on PS3... YES I SAID ON PS3 looks miles better than Batmid Arkham knight on PS5💀💀💀
Batmid fans like you are so trash lmao you should be in circus making jokes and make people laugh out loud🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@yashsoni7614 you mad?
It's genuinely insane how good Arkham Knight still looks. Easily one of the best looking games ever made. Rocksteady outdid themselves.
100% true. It is also insane the amount if interactivity you have with the game world, with walls crumbling when hit by the batmobile and rain realistically flapping off your cape as you glide over Gotham city. Absolutely incredible!
Looks like shit. I've seen 2008 games look better literally.
HD out did itself😉
It's not about technology at all...
It's about the love that was put in the arkham games, which I think is the reason for arkham being better than spiderman 2
@@iknowwhereulivebro LOL
The fact Arkham knight can still be compared after being made on unreal engine 3
the point is that it absolutely couldn't be compared. even gta5 ps3 version has good graphics. even worse than batman, but still holds up. this does not mean that it can even be compared to graphics of this kind
@@notloriz67690tit can
In terms of graphics it's not even close. Spiderman 2 blows Arkham Knight out of the water.
@@bigmanwildin2216 Facts💯 These batman kids can't even afford a PS5 they didn't even played Spider-Man 2 by themselves all they can do is just watching comparison video on their mobile screen in 144p and then judge which games graphics are better instead of actually playing them😂
@@bigmanwildin2216maybe because theyre 8 years apart?
I'm a fan of both marvel and dc but man i gotta say Arkham looks too good for its time.
No hate on spiderman 2 both games are very well executed.
The only issue with Arkham Knight is the lack of actual boss fights.
Well it was based on character development and to show the progression of how Batman was becoming the Joker. When scarecrow injected him with his scaretoxin it erased joker out of Batman's mind and he beat the shit out of scarecrow.
@@semvision nice pfp tho💀
@@semvision batman orgins had the best super hero fights to date . and didnt knight have more boss fights than spiderman 2 .. cuz im pretty sure they did
@@LIK3SQUAD_CEOI wouldn't call Arkham knight boss fights actual boss fights. Deadshot was just the same tank Minigame we played the whole game and most of the other bosses were just go to them and press a single button. The game is the best game in the series but the earlier games had was better boss mechanics.
Rock steady did such a perfect job in making a 2015 game that still competes with 2023 titles, truly a head of it's time in terms of (mostly) everything.
No it doesnt. Its a 30 frames per second game. 60 frames per second games sacrifice a significant amount of visual fidelity for that 60 frames
Its not ahead of its time. Death Stranding looks better. RDR2 looks better. Death Stranding looks better. Last Of Us 2 looks better
Arkham fans seem completely clueless. Companies are choosing to go the high framerate route over game graphics route. Games are much smoother, but the rate of graphics leap is much smaller
@@sumnahlennon5449 my guy what are you saying lmao, a game being ahead of its time doesnt mean its the best looking game. i never said it was the best looking game, the fps is capped at 30 fps for the ps4 because well it was too much for it. and since i played the game on the pc i never even had to deal with playing it at 30 fps. at the end of the day IT IS ahead of its time, a 2015 game looking this good and holding up till today is impressive and not all games can do that, idk what you are mad about
2014 game, it got delayed so technically 2014 @@MASO3R
Comparing these two is night and day; literally. The atmosphere in Arkham knight is super dope
Like literally night and day
@@AJ-dx6bnthere are day parts in night wing dlc, flip a coin you play as robin dlc and they look amazing way better than Spider-Man
Arkham knight has lots of interiors with interactable named NPCs and quests inside such as GCPD, the clock tower, and the two large airships. All are enterable at any point in the story without loading screens. You also get the batmobile which adds a new wrinkle to the usual arkham formula by adding vehicular combat and navigation. This resulted in an open world that is multi layered with complex roads and underground levels; all accessible without loading screens.
The main mission in spiderman is still using separate states where you are locked in a specific location and locked out of doing side activities. Even a simple phone call in Spiderman locks you out of exploring the map as arbitrary "leave the mission" messages prevent you from doing stuff.
Arkham knight's main missions are always active, meaning you can still pursue other activities despite having another main objective active. For example, I can have poison ivy inside the batmobile as part of an ongoing story, but I can still use the batmobile in doing other side activities or choose to leave her and go to the other side of the map and complete other side activities; all seamless without getting out of any mission states. The world design is much more complex in batman. You actually get a city with enterable buildings that have multiple floors with functioning elevators,
The open world in spiderman is still using the ubisoft template with inorganic checklists of mindless repetitive collectibles. arkham knight does side quests organically where villains and activities are already populated in every facet of the game environment, meaning sidequests do not have obvious flashing icons that gets triggered by loading screens, but are diagetically embedded in the environment such as ominous music playing, a smoke coming from a building, and a creative jump scare during open gameplay. The riddler collectibles also transform Gotham into a huge puzzle playground where level design and the game mechanics are utilized together to create unique challenges that are mechanically driven, and not by quicktime events.
Mission design in arkham knight is also devoid of boring walking-only sections but filled with bespoke mechanics that translate batman's other facets into actual game mechanics, not through quicktime events.
Combat is much more visceral in Batman with better animation and sound feedback and a more creative utilization of gadgets. More than one enemy can attack Batman at the same time and counter attacks are uniquely animated depending on the number of attackers. Spiderman only has a dodge/parry and never counters.
In addition, arkham knight has an exceptional dual character combat system where players can switch seamlessly between two characters in performing one single combo string.
The enemy AI is far more complex in Batman. There are multiple levels to their level of alertness. They can be calm, cautious, nervous, and terrified. All these emotions result in different gameplay scenarios as enemies try to adapt to Batmans traps and techniques. This is a far cry from spiderman where AI is simply binary. Batman Arkham simply immerses you in what it's like to be batman in minute detail. Enemies also have their own idle dialogue which adds personality and charm to the otherwise mundane combat encounters.
Arkham is a much better game than Spiderman 2 in general
Perfect take
@@sparky7523no
Cara, perfeito comentário analítico.
Crazy how after allat yappin… spiderman still better☠️☠️🙏😹
Both are great games but Arkham knight takes the cake for me they absolutely nailed the feel of Arkham city and Batman in a dark setting and the performance of Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill is incredible
In other words, Batman bias
@@sumnahlennon5449 no it’s just a better game in my opinion
@@NCRRangerDan i don't agree. The boss fights sucked, the batmobile missions were overdone, hearing the conversations of the thugs all the time even after passing the game was annoying after a while. I think both insomniacs spiderman games are superior.
@@shadow-man8715fair points honestly. But the combat in those games lacked any depth, the stealth was literally laughable, and made even easier in spiderman 2 with the web lines, and bosses were wayyy too easy in the first game, and in the second game they boil down to parrying, for every single boss. They isn’t any difference other than animations and certain moves Peter or miles can do. Plus the gadgets in the new game as so useless and limited. I’m not saying it’s bad by any means I loved both spiderman games. But saying they’re “far superior” is a bit of a stretch.
i think you're full of it. Arkham kills these games and it's virtue signaling @@shadow-man8715
It’s crazy how much of a mood difference the two have. Batman seems to take it very seriously while Spider-Man is just a fun guy who has fun with his role.
yes but spiderman has superpowers so it makes him stronger and he has less worries meanwhile batman if smth happens to him its over, he's not superman or anything, batman is more like a reality-game like closer to how the real world works
Arkham Knight is some otherworldly masterpiece. It remains fantastic up to this day. Props to the Rocksteady team, because they nailed all three games perfectly. I hope any of the devs see this comment.
And Suicide squad kill the justice league will be at least as detailed as Knight
@@Pointman11111 I was hoping for a Batman Beyond game. Oh well, at least I can dream.
@@samuelsoares8188 would have been cool but i guess Rocksteady wanted to do something new
Not a Batman focused story
I hate the live service stuff and always online but there is no doubt that SS will be one of the best open world games this gen
@@Pointman11111if Arkham Knight was designed to run at 60 frames, the graphics would be quite bad, or close to Arkham City's. Thats how much high framerates affect graphical quality
@@sumnahlennon5449 thats BS bc the game can look and run much better on weaker PCs
It's about developers dedication and attention to detail
Even with todays hardware there are barely any games that are on a graphical level like 2015s
Batman arkham
Mad max
Dying light
Assassins creed syndicate
Metal gear solid V
And those are all open world games with MGS V running at 60fps on ps4/Xone lol
Other examples
Infamous second son
Sunset overdrive 2014
Killzone shadowfall
Ryse son of rome 2013
Arkham Knight's ageing like the finest of wines.
Amazing how Arkham is nearly 10 years older and wins in (almost) every category,...Rocksteady deserves all the props. No disrespect to Spider-Man 2, Arkham Knight is just timeless.
No
Arkham knight was good but compared to the spiderman games its just not as good. The boss fights suck. The batmobile mission were way overdone.
@@shadow-man8715 arkham aint about the bossfights though and I could say the same thing about spidermans side missions and mj sections, For me both the games are great one isnt really superior to other
@@varadsalunkhe9008 Spider-Man isnt about boss fights either yet still does them better with only Arkham Origin and Mr Freeze coming close to good boss fights.
To see that Arkham Knight wins in so many aspects against a game that launched this year shows to me that insomaniac has still too much to learn about how to create a good superhero game.
The amount of detail from Knight is insane. It still looks great to this day and year
right!
It was a graphic monster when it came out
Because they chose to make the game run at 30 frames. Newer games choose framerate over visuals. Because gamers themselves requested that
Keep in mind that current gen gamers debated on all games running 60 frames/second, or all games running 30 frames/second with a massive graphics improvement. Gamers voted that they wanted all games to run at 60 frames, even if it meant actual graphical improvement will be less big.
Keep in mind that if current gen games were designed ground up to run at 30 frames, the graphical fidelity would be more than twice as great.
Batman Arkham fans seem completely clueless. There are plenty of great looking games last gen like Last Of Us 2, Death Stranding, RDR 2. But those games were designed purely for 30 frames per second gameplay.
On console, getting a game to run at 60 uses a significant amount of horsepower which makes less room for visuals enhancement.
Both games are great but the fact that batman arkham knight can still compete in game comparisons even if it has been 8 years, is awsome.
10:17 if you press the right stick while glide kicking the camera will switch to the victims pov to make an epic shot
Excelent video, its crazy how advance in time was Arkham Knight. The only thing that makes me sad is that Gotham is not a living city like in Spider-Man 2, even though they are NPCs without any expression. Anyway, two games are on my top 10.
i wish for a remaster for arkham origins, gotham was really alive at Christmas
Arkham Knight’s Gotham is very much alive with all the criminals doing their thing, lack of civs makes sense story wise.
@@jtrei1737 and even if there were civilians why would a cluster of them be outside at night in GOTHAM
I mean if scarecrow toxin has spread all over the city and militias with tanks and basically military gear took over the city then it's understandable y but I do see ur point
@@Majima669 Of course it's obviously for story reasons, but you know what I mean
Just the fact that a 2015 game can rival "next-gen" games is an undeniable certificate of quality.
One element that was left off on the combat section was the dual teamwork as there are occasions where Peter would cross paths with Miles (or vice versa) and they would take down multiple enemies together, which the same can be said for Batman as he would fight alongside Robin, Nightwing and Catwoman when fighting against the criminals of Gotham City. Not to mention that both heroes would have a dual takedown with their respective allies and have different interactions with them as well.
Arkham knight was so ahead of his time.... crazy!!
Both games are awesome. 🔥
Agreed
FINALLY, someone who gets it!
Nope, thts wut the comparison is for, arkham did better than spider man series
@RockinfunXD and you always have to get that one idiot in the comment section
@@rowanstuart7150 But he’s right lol that’s literally the point of the video. I’m not gonna lie watching this makes me feel embarrassed to play SM2.
I recently got the remastered versions of Arkham asylum/ city and then played Arkham knight which still holds up on ps4. It was leagues better than SM2 imo but this comparison video kind of proves that. That story, combat, stealth and details are all better than SM2.
Sm2 has traversal which is better than it’s last games but that’s about it. The suits in SM2 are terrible and there’s literally like 10 mcu suits. Why not just have all the suits from the last game?
The side missions in SM2 are terrible and even after that the game is dead after endgame. SM1 and MM had more content.
I could go on and on. SM2 is good at best
It is incredible that a game from almost a decade ago (8 years) can be compared and live up to certain aspects of a current game.
And although the comparison varies in certain game mechanics since they are two different characters and with different settings, there is a lot to talk about about the amazing work of Rocksteady and the love with which they worked on the saga that revolutionized superhero games.
No it cannot. Games today sacrifice graphics to run at 60 frames. If Arkham Knight on console was designed to run at 60 it would look worse.
Any last gen game that runs at 30 frames can be compared to a current gen designed to run at 60. The "big improvement" is cut due to framerate and resolution increases.
Gamers debated and argued they dont want graphics like the Matrix demo if it meant only 30 frames
@@sumnahlennon5449 no shit sherlock.....now compare the 2014 spiderman with Arkham .....spiderman wont stand a chance
@@sumnahlennon5449 the reason it runs at 30 fps is because ps4 cant handle it try playing on pc
@@sumnahlennon5449graphics even from back then can look wonderfully. Metroid prime, MGS4, Grand Turusmo 2, Sonic Unleashed, Uncharted 2 etc.
Just my personal opinion but:
Game details - AK
Highest points - AK
Stealth - AK
Texture quality - AK
Traversal (car, swinging, gliding) - AK/ SM2
Gameplay mechanics- AK/SM2
Ability to… swim - SM2
Parkour/ movement system - SM2
The only reason I give traversal and gameplay a draw is because both games are absolutely phenomenal and capture the essence of the respective characters better than anything else I’ve ever played, but it’s hard to compare one who’s movement system is based around the fact that the character literally fucking leaps over buildings, to the other who spends a lot of time on street level, quietly moves around and screams around in a tank or glides over rooftops, from that perspective the SpiderMan mechanics of being fast and agile with flowing parkour and lots of quick acrobatics and raw spectacle will always win out purely because it’s so satisfying visually to watch and is possibly the mot immersive traversal system in any game, but on the flip side, from a gameplay options point of view, Knight gives you multiple options to enter a situation of either full on combat, stealth, surveying the area and marking out enemies whilst disabling their weaponry or turning it against them, or just full on charging straight through the wall in the Batmobile. So for me it’s a draw on the traversal and gameplay mechanics because whilst both win out over each-other in certain aspects, ultimately they come to a draw because they’re both as good as each-other
wrong
Cap... Biggest joke I've ever heard.. Kid didn't even touched SM 2 by himself on PS5 and then judging both games by watching a comparison video on mobile on 144p lmao
Spider-Man 2 graphics, stealth, combat, map, textures all are better and superior than all Batmid Arkham games combined
@@yashsoni7614 played both, one on PC, one on PS5… Arkham still looks better, and will still look better when SM2 comes to PC, and that ain’t a slight on SpiderMan because the game looks and is amazing
Texture quality - SM2
@notthefia9154 thank fuck someone finally said it. In Spiderman the only well designed characters were the named ones, and even then both Peter and Miles looked weird. I remember seeing the principal that fires Peter in the first act and wondering why the fuck she looked like she was ripped out a ps3 game
I played both Spiderman games and Arkham games. I love both of them and some of the greatest superhero games of all time.
Now that's what I'm talking about a true superhero fan right here also if you have a PlayStation did you know that there's another superhero game called Infamous that's another good superhero game 2
@thedarkknightman6150 Yeah, I owned Infamous Second Son and first light, which was an amazing game, too.
Ye same I love both heros and the games it’s amazing we have these experiences to play with and immerse ourselves in
I would absolutely LOVE a new Arkham game but it’ll never be the same without Kevin Conroy
Doesnt luke skywalker voice the joker?
@@GonzalezJio he does in the cartoons. In the Arkham games it’s Troy Baker
@@metalm6455troy baker only voiced the joker in arkham origins in the other games mark hamill voiced the joker
They could theoretically still do it something between origins and asylum a lot of time they can do something with and can use the same batman VA they used in origins
I mean with the rise of A.I. voice manipulation its not impossible but definitely soulless. R.I.P. to the Legend
I'm still on progress on Spider man 2, I finished 100% on that Batman, it was so awesomely epic!!
Fr bro Batman AK game is timeless
The way Spiderman flying up while gliding is unreal Batman's gliding is more physics accurate
Really. Spiderman was flying not gliding. 😆
@@syminite1The flying feature was made for "fun." The city is too big so they prioritized fun factor over realism
Batman's gliding physics are not realistic. Arkham's director SAID it was faster than real life gliding abilities. Even saying the slower speed of the Xbox 360/PS3 HDD is the only reason they did not make Batman glide faster.
I dont get what you get out of picking fights with other fanbases when you are wrong on so many levels.
@sumnahlennon5449 Doesn't matter what reason you wrap it around, he still ain't gliding.
Batman portrays closer to actual gliding.
@@syminite1spiderman is also a much bigger game with a much higher speed limit
As far as I always preferred Spider-man, arkham games were something else
The fact that these games are 8 years apart seeing how far we've come with gaming and can still be compared is honestly insane. Both are incredible games.
I think both games are amazing, but you must admit it’s outstanding what rocksteady did with there game on old gen consoles , Arkham knight was head of its time and it’s generation …..
It wasnt ahead of its time. RDR 2 looks better and runs better. Last Of Us 2 looks better. Arkham Knight runs at 30 frames per second. Sacrificing gameplay for graphics.
Take the RE Engine games and put them at 30 frames and you have a better looking game than Arkham Knight.

You should have also done a comparison of the circle/triangle takedowns in combat.
Wow it amazes me that Arkham knight can hold up well. It’s almost going to be 10 years 😮, hopefully we’ll see next gen update.
Arkham Knight is my favorite superhero game ever and I don't think that'll be changing anytime soon.
the sound design in AK is so good man. the way his cape sounds when he dives and glides is so satisfying
weird that the clock time changes in a game that takes place all in one night, but stays the same in a day that spans weeks and has a functioning day-night cycle
Both Insomniac and Rocksteady did perfect Job with their respectful characters and their games
good god we NEED another amazing DC game. Be it Batman or someone else. I am really curious about Monolith's Wonder Woman
I’ve really enjoyed these comparisons between the two games. It really goes to show how influential the Arkham games were on Spider-Man. One brief observation. It seems that whenever Arkham Knight does something better, you make sure to highlight it, but don’t do the same for Spider-Man, which ends up making the comparison feel a little biased. I feel like the video would settle better if both games were given opportunities to shine in the areas where they genuinely do better things. Just a thought. Keep up the good work.
Arkham Knight so ahead of its time. Didn’t even know you could do this 9:07
In my opinion, Fear Multi-Takedown is the most awesome takedown in Arkham Knight. It's too bad that Spidey doesn't have an equivalent move.
I’ve learned so much about a 7 year old game in this
It's 8 years
Arkham Knight has that music tho. Its just glorious when that movie esque score is playing while you're smacking down on thugs.
Keep in mind these games are 8 years apart but it’s still a competition 💀
Its a real shame we will never have an Arkham installment on current gen... I think we would all be blown away. And I'm glad Insomniac (and many other games) pays great homage to arkahm series with making great use of its mechanics. Water in arkham knight is one of the best in gaming ever. The ONLY issue I hate about arkham knight is lack of good AA solution. The shader sub-pixel shimmering is annoying as hell. One aspect Akham KNight is clearly ahead of Spider-man 2 is art direction - the gothic noir vibe of the city is so immersive and fitting.
i havent played both game but why is arkham knight graphics EXTREMELY good, its too far ahead of its time
Bc whole game is night
Cus they stylized the graphics a lot which makes it age well like fine wine
11:29 Miles in the background helping out made me happy for some unexplainable reason.
great comparison
Since I was a kid I’ve always been a big fan of Spiderman, unlike Batman, who didn't really catch my attention. Of these two games the first one I could play was Spiderman and I liked the story and gameplay, I really enjoyed playing this game, however later I could play the Batman games and let me tell you that they are pure gold, the stories are fascinating, as shown in this video, the graphics and gameplay are amazing too. As a big Spiderman fan I must say that BAK is a thousand times better than MSM2.
finally someone who doesnt overrate spiderman
You dropped this 👑
Even Arkham city could compete with Spider-Man, hell even asylum! They never get old
i really hope rocksteady puts out a next gen patch when the trilogy gets released on nintendo switch, it seems likely since epic leaked the 2022 the batman skin, so if they are spending the money to put out new content, they'll probably release it along something else to get more sales
I can't believe I witnessed a fluid parkour sequence from a Batman game, gotta give it to the guy 😮😮😮
Its crazy how Arkam Knight is way better than most of the games now days after 8 years. Im not saying games are bad now (kinda) but Batman Arkam Knight is just too good for its time
Both are completely different games but both are brilliant in what they’re trying to achieve so for me there’s no comparison here. Spiderman 2 may be very little on the details and methodical gameplay that Arkham Knight excels in but instead doubles down on the explosiveness, constant entertainment and the open world aliveness that Arkham Knight lacks in my opinion.
Dude... Come on... Batman have some lacks 💀 i dont agree with your opinion. I've played Batman to the 100% completion n u're saying it lacks entertainment content n environment aliveness... Dude on some funny drugs yo!
the gameplay of spiderman 2 is very good
@@ryker4547 Nothing compares to the Arkham Trilogy
Just see the time gap between these 2 games
When people will talk about spiderman 1 n 2 in the next 9 to 10 years. Batman will still be relevant n must appreciated, been older than Spiderman 1 n 2.
Im not hating on spiderman game for sure. I love it too. But comparing it to the Batman Arkham Trilogy is way out of conversation. Batman will still rank out every superhero games out there
@@psy27 and Spiderman too, because we
have been there for 5 years and we continue talking and replaying, the two sagas are at the peak of superhero games
@@psy27 The two sagas are relevant and will continue, there are even games and even Gotham Knights itself already took things from Spiderman There are games that are even inspired by Spiderman's swinging and movement.
Arkham Knight holds the place for best art direction/graphical details and gameplay amongst all superhero games, that's why people still come back to this game and why it's such a timeless classic
I would've loved if you had included the Manbat's jumpscare during the grappling section.
My only problem with the Arkham games is that it always takes place in one lockdown night without civilians. I wanna be able to roam through the city and see civilians
Batman isn’t very social, he’s more of a force of nature so it would be weird for him to interact with civilians
It makes sense for Spider-Man cause he’s the friendly neighbourhood hero
How ill Civilians work in Batman games, the only thing Batman games had was hostages cause majority of Villains use hostage to get to Batman.
Same.
Its a stylistic choice they made. Its not called just "Batman", its called "Batman: Arkham".
Play Gotham knights ( me secretly looking for a co-op buddy)
Batman Arkham still hold up ❤️🔥
Nah XD
Batman is trash for me
City is almost dead ofc there is a lot of things but it gets boring
Combat is a lot worse than sm2+nothing beats web swinging
im glad the arkham games were my only games for 1 year or so. ive played them 12 times and had always somethig to do
I think it’s important to note that some of the Arkham Knight gameplay (I.e parkour) is sped up slightly. Whether by mod or editing, it should be clarified if that’s what you’re doing. And there seems to be a lighting reshade. Just to give an accurate comparison you should take the games at their base
Parkour, gliding and traversal are the obvious factors on which game had more attention to detail and that alone shows Arkham Knight on top.
Arkham knight would be really good but it lacks good boss fights. Kinda funny that the best boss fight in the game was DLC with killer croc. The only real boss fight in story we had was pyg and one of the infected jokers.
they didn’t have enough time, to make good boss fights, watch video from rokstady workers, they explained why boss fights were not good
Nice job getting that suit in Arkham knight 👍
I just realized that batman in the game have some slight super powers :
- he can break an entire car just by landing on it with force and he wont even get damaged
- he is slightly bullet proof makes him ammune to 3 - 8 bullets (probably its his suit)
- he got super fists and combat physic making him stronger than every human no matter how big or strong that human is ( he can wipe out a group of more than 10 peoples easily )
- he can survive falling from any high building in the game making him takes 0 fall damage
- he can fight monsters with superpowers and he won
- just like spiderman he got that sence when someone is about to hit him or attack him making him dodge any attack if he use this ability the right way
so we can just say that batman is a superhuman
Both are my favorite games, I have fun with them
Arkham night had those features(takedown/finisher, wings, grappeling/web zipping from the building's point, and etc) like 7~8 years ago, pretty sure Insomniac got inspired by that when they're making Marvel's Spider-man 2.
Games had those features long before Arkham
@@7dayspking not Spider man games
Insomniacs Spider men can't even stealth KO two dudes unless he's on a web line lol
Arkham city haf double takedowns
And knight had fear takedowns which let you KO up to 5 enemies
Even Ghost of tsushima had that with up to 3 enemies
@@Pointman11111 I don't care about Spider man 2. The game's suck IMO, they're archaic early 2000s style open world games filled with pointless tasks as side activities and with heavily cinematic on rails stories despite being set in Open world's. Bad game design all round. American open world games suck for the most part.
@@7dayspking and still you tried to downplay Batman lol
My only gripe with the Arkham Knight is that stupid cloudburst boss fight and how they handle Cobra Tanks. I did hate the Bat Mobile chase scenes but I realized how horrible I’m handling the driving mechanics (I can use breaks for crying out loud😅) and see it now in a different light. All the rest are just brilliant conclusion to Asylum and City and it’s crazy how the environment interacts. The team squeezed out and utilized to the best all what Unreal Engine 3 can do. Graphics are just third for me (it always has to be gameplay first, story second, sometimes I can place both story and graphics equally or interchangeably) and I can truly appreciate that from what Arkham Knight did.
Also I got trauma ingrained whenever Batman grapples upward in every building, if you know what I mean.
Surprisingly, Arkham Knight's visuals are more stunning and it feels like the engine used in this game fits the ambiance of what Gotham should be. Dark. Mysterious. Dangerous. Plus, th rain animation is actually good. Spider-Man 2, on the other hand, felt like great as well but only thing is, the graphics of both games doesn't have that huge gap. And as if Spider-Man 2's visuals and animation was like similar on other AAA games 8 years ago. The only change was of the hardware I guess. MSM2 uses modern specs but it didn't really have that much impact graphically compared to Arkham Knight with more immersive visuals and animation.
se arkham fosse lançada nos tempos de hj, nenhum jogo iria bater de frente
i like spiderman 2 more than arkham knight, even thought arkham knight have more feature than spiderman 2 such as variant of stealth takedown, but i like from spiderman 2 is from the game pace, it’s balance, not too slow also not too fast, the graphic is also one of the best this year, i like spiderman 2, and i hope spiderman 2 can win the game of the year
Batman arkham knight has better stealth takedown because you can also make differemt strategies,unlike spider man just use webs to trap his enemies...
The clock tower in arkham knight run in real time, yet 24 hours you wait and it still night
Spider-Man wingsuit is so fast as if he has a legit flying power
5:19 you can hear when batman runs across thin metal. Thats some 2018 RDR2 level detail in a 2015 game.
I kinda like that Batman doesn’t have civilians in Gotham he isn’t very social like Spider-Man so it’s no wonder the Arkham games take place in a night😂
Despite the fact that SM2 obviously is graphical improvement since it's on a newer system, I think what visually lacks in that game and Arkham games have an abundance of is style. I think Marvel heroes always kind of suffered a bit due to them being set in regular cities, so the city itself lacks a bit of personality.
Gotham however is like the coolest possible setting I've ever seen, only rivaled by ironically enough Metropolis, which guess again, is another DC superhero
Arkham batman only looks good because of the environment it’s set in, it’s dark and dirty, if it was set in daytime it wouldn’t look as good, they also sacrificed performance (60 fps) for fidelity, which imo is as a great take
@@gRizzly.-_-PowSpider-Man 2 looks way too plastic like and lifeless. I’d rather have good art direction, mood and personality than bright generic boring modern city. Spider-Man looks better graphically but in terms of art direction is stale, barely looks better than GTAV or even GTAIV
@@misaeltoral508 plastic? the lights and ambiance perfectly compliments the tone of spider-man

Perfections, i love this games. But i don't have a good computer for play the two games...
Batman >> Spider-Man 2
I just love that my 2 favorite heroes got great games
They truly deserve it
I know the point of showing the differences between games, but once you realize that most games focus on different parts, you start to understand that you can't compare too much about them.
You can use as example the breaking a car from falling system, in my vision I see the batman game with a more dark scenario, Gotham is almost destroyed and everything, he NEEDS to do this, you can even see this by the way he goes exploding the whole city with the Batmobile (a goddamn tank), on Spider-Man's side the game is more ''friendlier'' and don't really need to be so destructive (even though it breaks the immersion).
Another example is the jumping from a highest point where Spider-Man can resist falling from a highest place and the developers put the crashing animation and the fall damage to be a hilarious part based on this resistance, in batman scenario it wasn't shown in the video, but when he falls from a high place, he activates some kind of ''parachute'' system before he falls on the ground to prevent getting injured.
In my final opinion, I LOVE BOTH GAMES, 10/10 all the way, enjoyed playing them, I played batman on my Xbox S/S and the Spider-Man on my PS5, and all I'm saying that when you appreciate both games and don't search a thing of one to another you can really see the beauty of them exclusively. One is made for a thing, the other for another. Great video, by the way! Keep up with the good work.
Imagine a Batman Beyond Game taking place years after Arkham Knight with Terry taking the mantle or Damien but I like Terry better
Arkham City is still the best superhero game ever made and easily my favorite game of all time.
Lmao Spider-Man 2 is the best superhero game of all time now it's a fact🔥 stop living in trash nostalgia lmao
After playing Spider-Man 2 I can clearly say Arkham knight is garbage in front of SM 2🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️ In Arkham knight the whole World seem dead, missions tend to repeat themselves, riddler puzzles and missions are straight trash and boring, batmobile is cool until you felt like you're driving a tank on skates lmao... And some of it's boss battles are also garbage... While Spider-Man 2 literally improved 200 times upon every single aspect like traversal, combat, open world, missions, side missions, story, villains, character development, feels truly next gen, Spider-Man has web wings which are buttery smooth🔥
So Spider-Man 2>>>>>>>Overrated Arkham games and that's not an opinion it's a FACT🗿
Spider-Man 2 already became the Best superhero game ever made & surpassed every Arkham games combined🗿🗿🗿
@@yashsoni7614 u literally compared Arkham knight in this regard and copied your reply from another commenter. You definitely are a spider-man meat rider. And first off, have you actually played the Arkham games? The world is supposed to be dead, that’s the whole damn point. The only people on the streets are criminals, prisoners, police officers (Arkham knight and origins in that regard), it makes absolute sense on why there’s no civilians and that the world is dead, that’s the whole damn point of these games, you the player are the only person that can save the damn area. And no Arkham isn’t nostalgia based, these games have aged so damn well that they still feel like new games (besides graphics), and oh combat and stealth in Arkham is way better than spider-man, get the facts right.
@@sebb.jimenez Lmao kid I copied my own reply still you have problem with that🤣 Don't compare that overrated trash PS3 looking game with true next gen PS5 exclusive Spider-Man 2
Maybe stealth better in Arkham knight but that's the only advantage it has lmao but combat is miles better in Spider-Man 2 kid that's a fact go to school
This video has already became 2 days old still you batmid fanboys came here to cry lmao move on kid🤣
@@yashsoni7614 bro doesn’t have a childhood and bro doesn’t know real games.
@@sebb.jimenez Kid I have played many games... more than the number of brain cells in your brain
Arkham looks more realistic and better, spiderman 2 looks colorful and unrealistic
Not really true both look great
Both games look great. I’m glad there are such awesome games where I can play as my favorite superheroes in such high quality gameplay
It’s crazy how we compare 2023 games to 2015 games. It just shows how well the arkham series holds up.
I was debating the other day with a guy at work...he thinks im stupid for saying Arkham Knight has better graphics than Spidey 2, after watching this video i can say im definitely not the stupid one 😂 Batman STILL looks amazing an has way better details. Its 8 yrs old an recently got a new suit update. How bad ass is that? Do you think Spidey 2 will be getting updates in 8 yrs? Nope
Unfortunately in terms of graphics sm2 is quite better the reason the Arkham games look so good is because they all take place at night and especially Arkham knight where the entire map is extremely dark and the purpose of that is to hide the aged textures however Arkham knight is still very beautiful game
@@starwatch76prime98 stop bringing the night argument and just compare Bruce face with Peter face!
@@starwatch76prime98 in 1:45 you can tell by the building that the details are left out. Spiderman take good care of the cinematic moments where it shine the most, but when you get to the gameplay it lacks
If we had the amount of care, time, and effort that was put into Arkham Knight in every triple A title the world would be a better place (not to take away from the already solid effort and work these devs for Spider-Man put in but you know what I mean)
They should do one for the npc henchman conversations in both games
I hate when people are clearly biased while making these videos. You’re deliberately doing dumb shit while playing as Spider-Man (falling on a rock from the highest point instead of a straight dive unto the ground) and saying Batman was ahead of its time for stealth variations when he literally has to rely on that because he can’t dodge bullets or fight 10 ten men with rifles without worrying about getting shot😂 Stop moving the goal post and just make a fair video…
Fr bro this comparison is trash purely biased comparison🤣

i wish rocksteady/wb games remastered the whole arkham series with unreal engine 4 or 5, gotham city looks so beatiful in ray tracing
This just shows the effectiveness of great design on arkham knight.
The smaller scale of arkham knight did not mean less detail, but more detail when possible.
Car deformation, for example, is possible because of the small ammount of cars in AK.
The fact AK is comparable to SM2 in 2023 just shows its not only about tech.
Arkham Knight stealth is miles ahead of Spiderman 2 (no pun intended).
The stealth in the spider man games is awful, no way to compare that to a character based off stealth and brutality (which is why the combat in arkham is way better than Spider Man also). Both games have amazing traversal mechanics, and Spider Man 2 definitely has better bosses than Arkham Knight, I haven't even played SM2, but I know that for sure, because the AK bosses were mainly shit.
I basically doesn't exist sadly it's just some shiny animations. AI doesn't hold up to the standards in stealth either.
@@RayweoYeah your right, and you don't even need to do stealth, because there is no risk in Spider Man, since you can just fight your way out, which makes it uninteresting. In the Arkham games, you need to plan your tactics out, and it makes it rewarding and fun to do stealth.
@@bearpoop720i mean at the same time spiderman can literally dodge bullets from 20 different guys with a blindfold on. Batman can't so he has to be more cautious. I agree the stealth could have been better but if your expecting it to be like Arkham your expectations are to high
@@darrylisaac9400 I'll lower them. I want the stealth to at least be decent, and not boring.
