It says you comment is 14 hours ago, and the video is 1 minute up???
Voice Actress* lol
I know im in the us and its 5:30 am but i dknt think that there are that many time zones
Sweet, you gonna do the whole trilogy now? You know you wanna, plus extended for Origin 😎
Where did you get your Hoodie its awesome!!!
In Arkham knight with detective mode you can see oracle’s broken spine
Yeah and uh... Even if you can regrow the spinal cord her vertebra were shattered. She wouldn't be able to bend any more for the rest of her life.
Damn never knew that
Truly feel sorry for her and Bats in Arkham Knight. The whole game is just mind bending, gut wrenching, and psyche destructive! At least for me when I played it.
@@filip9587 having only just got it and played it this week, I have been having a very good/bad time
Nah her spine isn't broken, she's just lazy and doesn't want to do any real work
The joker having no bones is probably one of the best
Truth
One of those things you have noticed but didn’t completely register at the time.. brilliant moment
And then it took the WORLDS GREATEST DETECTIVE the entire game to figure out that it wasn’t Joker
Yeah we probably all would’ve thought it was a glitch or they forgot to but in his bones until the final boss
The Coolest Spiderman Wow you seem to have some really bad anger issues
In the first Catwoman DLC, the image of Batman carrying the Joker was used as an Easter egg/foreshadow with Two-Face’s portrait of Cain and Abel.
It's the other way around. Cain and Abel foreshadow Batman and Joker.
Everybody HAS to know that.
I don't think that was part of the dlc
I've always found this painting/ foreshadowing interesting because cain killed Abel. That means cain is the one carrying Abel and batman is carrying joker. Does this mean that joker was the favored one and batman is the evil one? Also admittedly I may just be reading to much into this
The shark repellent joke would have been perfect for a battle with King Shark.
King shark is a shark
KING SHARK IS A SHARK!
If you die to tiny the shark the tip in the pause menu says that you should use the best shark repellent, your fists!
The shark repellent could’ve been the kinetic gloves in the armored edition.
I bet its gonna show up in their Suicide Squad game
2:52 *-- video actually begins.* 👍
Real OG
Scarecrow's hidden boat room in City is up there with the Warden's secret planning room in Asylum
Arkham city is a masterpiece I played this game again this quarantine
I freaking love that game. I love all the games. My list...
1. Arkham City
2.Arkham Asylum
3.Arkham Knight
4. Arkham Origins
Edit: I love all the arkham and I don't hate on origins, but they to fix on the story mode a bit more
Sammmeee
Same
This game as a lot of fun and I love the story. I also Love playing as Catwoman. 😎
@@powerjolt7215 how much u wanna bet because of those cough cough BOOBS?
I think we can all agree that this is the best superhero game ever.
Correct you are, sir.
Certainly an all time great but personally I think Spider-Man PS4 is better.
You can't be more correct than that.
This is even better than the ps4 spider man game, because why would you play as spider man when you can play as Batman.
I prefer Arkham Knight
When Arkham City was revealed in an issue of Game Informer I’m sure it was announced that ‘turf wars’ were going to be a thing, rather than Penguin, Two face & joker thugs all staying in their stipulated areas they would break out into fights & claim different areas of the map
Lewis Harry yeh that happens. two face takes over penguins territory at the museum . penguin takes over mr. Freeze’ territory. riddler takes the church from Harley Quinn/joker. joker blows up the bridge while they’re fighting, to take jokers territory. joker takes over two faces territory, where the theatre is, and there’s fights between gangs that are happening throughout the story, and there’s some others, I can’t think of, at the top of my head
Actually, it was Penguin who blew up the bridges.
XRider09 I was under the impression from the arkham city forums (I was glued to that forum at the time) that it was going to be adaptive and constantly changing so it would make you change your approach on different playthrough’s & beyond finishing the story. I know with rocksteady allot gets left on the cutting room floor.
Following my cutting room floor comment.. my biggest thing is in Arkham Asylum.. you see GCPD dead, bullet holes in the walls surrounding the corpse, but no blood? - blood was cut so they could keep the rating from being M for mature. I feel this is a shame, it would have increased the feeling of a real threat within the asylum... I’d love to see a directors cut one day.
@@openking exactly
In Arkham City if you get eaten by the shark, doesn't wanna the prompts when you are reloading from a previous save say 'Should have used Shark Repellent' or did I just imagine that?
LouYe yes it says use your shark repellent, your fists
The Shark Repellent Joke was added in the game, if you Die to Tiny one of the helpful tips will tell you to use the shark repellent, and then describe said repellent as a fury of strikes
In the boss fight with Joker in detective mode you can't see his bones because it's clay face, a clue that it wasn't the real Joker.
what about Azrael being on a rooftop during the opening? If you look up towards the right I think, he's sitting there watching.
Also you guys might have the "wanna be friends" bot in you comments.
That was really cool. Also, if you pressed the Right Analog Stick to see him, he will do that whole swipe-the-sword-on the ground-to-disappear thing.
I just restarted the game, and noticed that you don't even have to look for him - when Bruce gets knocked to the ground, his view swings past that rooftop corner for a moment, and you can see him.
I remember the marketing campaign for Arkham Knight heavily emphasizing that the Arkham Knight ISN'T Jason Todd. Die hard Batman fans already made spot on guesses when the character was announced and even pictures of Red Hood action figures appeared along side the toy series for Arkham Knight before the game was even released.
No one was fooled when the truth was revealed. But personally, I've always though that it would be the ultimate plot twist if Red Hood was his own character and Arkham Knight was actually Anarky from Arkham Origins. Now all grown up since Origins and also another character with a grudge against Batman, NO ONE will see it coming if at the very last minute Red Hood crashes in to intervene between Batman and Arkham Knight.
They said that Arkham Knight was a new character but under the make might be someone familiar so I saw theories ranging from joker survived to warden sharp from asylum it was when the red hood dlc was announced as a pre-order that gave it away for me and I played it before finishing the main story and looked at his mask the fact it is Arkham knights but red was what sealed the deal for me and as I was in party chat ruined it for my friend lol they should have just gave him the name red hood and made it obvious to comic fans as the hints about Jason being dead are in the games before hand more city than anything I'd like a definite timeline of when he died though
The funny thing is Red Hood as the Arkham Knight could have worked with a better story.
Imagine if the identity of the Arkham Knight was revealed at a very early point in the game instead of building it up.
This would create an unexpected twist in the story and now the question would be 'how'
Since Jason wasn't in the previous games Arkham Knight could have focused more on his story, instead of forcing it with random hallucinations which spoiled the final twist.
Having played through the entire series. I have to say the Mr. Freeze’s story is my favorite part of the series hands down .
Fun ass boss fight! One of my faves
Surprised that he didn’t mention that you could find Bruce Wayne’s parents crime scene and pay your respects
Because every body knows that lol
#1) Arkham City takes place in Arkham City.
Arkham city was Gotham city all along.
LMOA
ThatOneDude “Laughing My Off Ass” FINALLY A CULTURED MAN.
@@MikeHawk04 Actually if you search it up..... Laughing my obese ass.
(Actaully, that was a typo. It was LMAO)
Lojik
At the beginning of the game, after crossing path with Deadshot you can see Azrael watching you from above
That Mr.Freeze boss fight was the best
Especially considering that you have too adapt as you fight. Also Batman with a sword against Clayface tho.
When your Bruce Wayne and your about to join the queue.
Look to your right and you will see Black mask surrounded by some guards.
Also in one of the boats you can find the Scare crow secret hide out.
Also a test subject exposed to the fear toxin.
I thought the teaser of jokers death at the start in the painting was quite fun.
In Arkham knight I found in the gcpd building there is mock wanted posters of the devs on a notice board just before jack ryder’s study room. Love the amount of Easter eggs and references there are in these games!👍😁
There actually is a reference to the shark repellent in the game. If you get killed by Tiny in the Iceberg Lounge while you're trying to save the GCPD officers and defeat Penguin, the game over tip will actually mention using the Shark Repellent
I'm still playing it
I just finished
Literally mopping up riddler trophies last night ahaha
@@matthewgibsonmusician same
I've replayed it multiple times (the series). Its fun to run around town beating people up.
Arkham series = Best Batman games ever.😁
The only other good one was Batman on the NES (and yes, I'm that old)
@@franklingoodwin I am old enough to have played it, but never owned an NES.👴😁
I remember liking Batman Returns and The Adventures of Batman and Robin on the SNES as a kid.
@@Euruk1 Totally forgot about Batman Returns on the SNES. That actually was better than the first Batman game on the NES.. But of course they all were great because they were made by Konami (when they were still great)
I do like that Batman's dialogue with Bane when discussing the Titan side mission can vary if you happen to have already destroyed at least one canister, and/or if you've already beaten Penguin's titan thug.
Please do this for the rest of the Arkham Series! Really enjoyed this video!
I met Grey DeLise once. Been a fan since Baldurs Gate. Got her autograph and a pic with her. She was so awesome to meet.
Thanks, man! Arkham City is one of my favorite games. For some reason, I never made the connection that the guy taunting you in the beginning is Deadshot. Thanks for pointing that out. The "Lost" references in the game just crack me up! "How come it all ended in a church?"
4:23 OMG I AM SO HAPPY TO SEE SOMEONE TALKING ABOUT THIS PART!!! EVERYTIME I PLAY A NEW GAME IM LIKE "I know its you, Deadshot. Dont be sneaky" FINALLY NSJS
Almost 3 minutes, then we finally get to watch the actual video? WTF!?
Mark and Kevin’s dynamic as the Joker and Batman are the greatest of any franchise. Batman the Animated Series struck absolute gold when they signed them
God I miss RockSteady
Its been too long mannn, I'm hoping for an announcement of their new game this year but it still feels like wishful thinking
Reportedly, before E3 was cancelled this year, WB was going to reveal the new Rocksteady game alongside the new WB Montréal Batman game.
same
Glad I couldn't sleep now so thanks whatculture
I liked both games about the same (and Arkham Knight too, to be honest), but Asylum was the one that engrossed me the most. I've played Asylum 2 or 3 times to my once with City and Knight, and completing all the Riddler challenges/trophies was something I actually looked forward to in Asylum (I felt these were bloated unnecessarily in City/Knight, aka I haven't finished them...yet). That said, I much prefer the grappling in City than I do in Asylum.
Asylum was always my favourite, I’m playing City again now though after 100%ing Asylum for the first time and I can’t deny that the amount of content in City is just about perfect. There’s always something to do and nearly all of it feels worthwhile (as soon as I get to 400 Riddler trophies though, I’m out - some are horrendous). I think Asylum still has the edge with its atmosphere though
You have to do origins and knight now
Robin and nightwing in the main story would’ve been something else 😍
In the opening scene you can also see black mask fighting guards and if you look up you can see Azrael.
Also Batman holding The Jokers corpse at the end is foreshadowed at the beginning
I enjoyed all the sequels but Arkham city is still my favorite and idk it's something about it that just felt good to be batman
The iceburg lounge sign revealing a naughty word after you destroy one of Penguin's weapons caches in Arkham Knight
I’ve replayed this game almost 20 times, it never gets old.
I knew about the dead shot one but I think the line nightwing says in the beginning of the challenge I think he says “show off”
This was great, I'm glad it wasn't recycled facts and Easter eggs everybody has known since 2011. Do MORE 🙌🏼
These videos are making we want to play these games again
Now this seems to be a series for the Arkham games don’t be sleeping on origins, Overhated and underrated it deserves a shout in the series
Fun Fact: Apart from Paul Dini serving as story editor on the show Mark Hamill was a huge fan of Lost too.
Love these Arkham videos
Interesting timing since I just started this game yesterday
I never knew that was deadshot
I love all FOUR games but Asylum is my personal favorite.
Kevin Conroy appearing in Crisis as a live-action Bruce Wayne for the first time is one of the greatest treats Arkham fans could've had.
I realised that the guy in the line was deadshot after replaying it
Video literally starts 3 min in... so just skip to min 3 to start watching the vid
Josh you should do a list of superhero games that could learn from Arkham City's play style and mechanic's
Fun fact: If you die to the shark when you’re supposed to beat it up, you will get a message telling you to remember to use your shark repellent
In Deadshot's locker in power station (where you can find his PDA) is a thing looking like lightsaber. It's there probably because Mark Hamill starred in Star Wars.
To me, comparing Arkham Asylum to Arkham City is like comparing Fallout and Fallout 2 to decide which is the better. In both cases, both are great games and complement each other fantastically. The first games tend to be a tad unpolished but have superb potential, while the second ones tend to be more polished and therefore be concretely superior games yet at the same time lack some of the potential from the first. Picking a winner would be like picking a favourite child in that sense.
Off topic: When I played Harley Quinn's Revenge and was controlling Robin, I accidentally threw one of the goons in the tunnel into the water and as a response to this happening, some weird sound typically signaling a failure of some sort was triggered. To this day, this has perplexed me and I am unsure of what to make of it and if it really did happen. Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone know anything about it? If it helps, I played on Xbox 360.
Tiny still makes me jump 😆
Batman arkham games were the best batman games and growing up with them was greatest thing
Josh is slowly turning into jesus every time we see his from home videos lol
I like Asylum due to it being the 1st game, creepy soundtrack, erie setting, just shows the horrors Batman deals with, and all those easter eggs
One of the greatest gaming masterpieces of all time, me and my dad loves this game.
It lowkey makes me happy knowing that I put in a lot of hours in Arkham City to actually know half of the topics mentioned on this list.
I remember waiting in line at midnight to pick up one of the early release copies, then taking the next day off work and playing it all day.
This is one of my top 5 games of all time.
I am vengeance. I am the night. I AM BATMAN!!
I think that hame deserves a download for Jules dead eyes while doing it alone...
Thanks for the video Josh. Do you think you could also look at Arkham Origins and Knight. Even if they’re not considered as good, it would still be interesting. Stay safe.
CIty is the best in the series imo. Asylum and its awesome atmosphere and story make it a VERY close second. Knight was a bit of a let down for me. The Batmobile was way over done from not only the out of place tank battles, but also seemingly any puzzle needing it in order to progress. I also did not like the change in art style.
Do one on Origins and Knight as well.
Aeroplane over the sea is the greatest album of all time, nice pick.
You should do all small details in the arkham games
Good golly your videos are good even at home
Nice tracksuit top
What I didn't know is this loading screen? Arkham city site secured and ready for shut down? How do you shut it down?
They should’ve made batman use the shark repellent bat spray outside the iceberg lounge when you fall in the water and the shark pops up
I AM IN LOVE WITH YOUR HOODIE!
Did anyone else get the references when you had to rescue Vicki Vale from the snipers? Dini Towers, etc? Hmm...
“Now this isn’t a strange target picked at random”
5:10...
😂😂😂😂
Amazing 🙏
Arkham content when the Arkham reveal coming soon !
"Soon"? Are you joking, mate? It was supposed to be revealed at the Summer Games Fest but still hasn't. People have been saying that for more than 3 years. But we still haven't got the payoff.
My first thought too. .it makes sense. .dont forget that all these gamimg channels on youtube ( at least the biggest ones ) are just marketing outlets/tools for the coorperations that own them. The timing that they choose to promote/talk about certain games are not accidental. They are strategically and meticulously planned beforehand.
The Charismatic Gamer_99 just watch it will reveal some time during summer
Yeah mention the boating the harbour. That hints at that Arkham Kight in the game , I mean flat it show what the Scarecrow is plaining for the next game , But you have use City in fear to open the hatch of the boat , It's like so cool to go trough the boat find that Easter egg for the next tgmae .But you dudes from the old countries known as the U.K .might be just doing Easter egg video of Arkham City ,Which I hope to see !
Is there going to be another batman game from what I hear or is it scrapped?
Batman Arkham City is one of my favorite games of all time, I'm currently creating, editing and polishing the characters 3d models, I'm posting soon in my deviantart account, unfortunately I don't know how to make mods, otherwise I would totally do that.
They must have paid to have his first video promoted because I just got recommended that video yesterday
You forgot about Scarecrows secret lab and his numbers code on B-mans cryptographic sequencer
I am familiar with your voice. Nice one dude
If Penguin's shark kills Batman, they reference the Bat Shark Repellent on the game over screen
Played this game like a million times, I knew all of these 😂 good vid tho
Every time I see Josh during this lockdown he looks slightly more like Obi Wan Kenobi
The hair bro, jeez
Bit good vid
I had fun playing Arkham City. So I enjoyed the environment more than the storyline in Arkham Knight. I hardly miss any of the Easter eggs.
That thumbnail is now my wallpaper
my number one was Azrael was watching you since you entered Arkham City
If you get killed by the shark, the loading screen references the need for some shark repellant.
When you do Arkham knight pleas mention the Grundy memorial
Nice hoodie
If you are fast enough to meet Deadshot at the beginning of the story, the name “Will Smith” will be on the screen as one of the credits which is pretty cool lol
Arkham City is the best game of the series in my opinion. I love how you get to play as Catwoman and Batman and see that you get to see both sides of the story in a way to see what kind of mischief Catwoman is up too when the Dark Knight is busy!
The one thing I hated about the arkham games is THE GODDAMN RIDDLER TROPIES. I HATE THE FACT YOU NEED TROPIES TO EVEN COMPLETE ARKHAM KNIGHT CUTSCENE
