A Decent Entry in The Franchise
The Arkham Series of games are among my favourite video games of any genre. Arkham Asylum is the first game that really captured what one imagine's it would be like to be Batman. Arkham City took those great foundations, built on them, expanded the world, and somehow created an even better game. Arkham Origins feels, at best, like a sideways step. If you haven't played the first two, then you'll probably love this. If you have, you'll probably be underwhelmed.

not so great
This game looks morre like a huge Arkham City DLC, which is not bad, but sold as an separate game.....i don't know...for the price that zavvi offers, it's a great game, but still it's the weakest in the series... But I had great fun with it....so whoever played the previous Arkham games, just go ahead and buy it. However if this will be your first entry to the series, you probably should buy Arkham Asylum instead....

Good, but no surprises
It's the third one in this well loved franchise and at this point you should know what you get...because that's EXACTLY what you'll get: nothing more(no surprises gameplaywise) but also nothing less (gameplay and setting are still great).

Great
The Negatives are that it has some glitches here and there so the game won't save after you pick an enigma pack. There are also some minor glitches when you are in combat mode so the enemies will get stuck behind or on top of a car. But these don't happen that often, not enough to ruin the experience. On the positives, it is my favorite game of the series, it has great boss fights, a good story, the combat system remains great, the gliding throughout the city is still fun. Just for the sake of those couple of glitches I can't give it 5 stars, but you should definitely buy this game if you like the previous ones.

Don't believe the reviews
This game is very similar to Arkham City. I enjoyed the storyline and gameplay. Really fun game, but nothing new.
