    You will, my guess is one will come out every other year with both studios doing Arkham games. That way the WB get more money till we get sick of the Franchise.

    Yep. More than likely will never buy a WBM Arkham game again.

    Ditto. Unless the next game has, like, no reports of bugs. But replacing games sucked. Especially when I waited a month to play it.

    But if this is the game Rocksteady has been working on, shove it in my butt please hurry.

    I loved what WBM did, but I'd agree, if only Rocksteady takes some aspects from Origins.

    Like the boss fights. Deathstroke's was AMAZING. I'd take that over the shitty ones from the first two games.

    Or the martial artists. I love fighting those guys.

    And some of the characters, like Firefly or Shiva.

    Whoa whoa...

    AC did not have shitty boss fights. Yeah Origins had varied, exciting ones, but AC's were just fine. In fact, I'd call them MORE varied, like Freeze.

    Hopefully they give David Kaye a larger role in the next game.

    I really only liked Mr. Freeze's.

    Clayface's was ridiculously easy, as was Solomon Grundy's. Ras' was okay, but not too amazing.

    Deathstroke's was hilariously easy too. Counter, hit, counter, hit. Don't know how that's more interesting. Copperhead's fight was the only really creative one to me.

    Deathstroke's was way more fun. It put good use to the new counter-counter-counter system. I'd rather play that then 'dodge the bad guy and throw ice at him'

    I thought all the bosses were fun in their own ways. I wish Bane would change his tactics, but that's about it.

    I still have a hard time hearing about all these game breaking glitches everyone keeps complaining about. I never had ANY problems on either of my playthroughs. So weird

    Neither did I. I suspect this is a case where a very vocal and/or sensitive minority has made a mountain out of a mole hill. I played through the game twice, once for a Full Play and never encountered anything that enraged me.

    ...I guess if your copy of the game didn't have any obvious glitches it wasn't an issue then Ryoku & Josh.

    My game froze a lot during free-roam.

    I actually found it easier to beat Deathstroke without counter icons, don't know why though. It looks incredible when there aren't any icons; it might as well be a movie.

    Did you have the game on release? There were bugs, you just missed it. EVERYONE had certain bugs that there was no avoiding it, like the vent that you couldn't access in the Burnley district, or the endless falling into the void that so many encountered.

    Aside from the small glitch in the beginning of my PS3 copy of Origins I didn't get any glitches on it. then again I got it around December so I'm guessing by then the patches on the PS3 version were taken care of if I'm correct.

    I had glitches :( 

    Guess I need to go back and see if I can work it out. Maybe they've patched it since.

    Nope. Last I checked none of the various glitches affecting Batman Arkham Origins is being addressed by WB Montreal as their priority is churning out DLC chapters right now. So if you want a de-bugged edition of Batman Arkham Origins wait for the eventual Collectors edition down the road.

    I had a game breaking glitch, on my Xbox 360 release, when ever a cutscene would start, there was 1/3 chance that the cutscene would fail to load and I would be stuck on a black screen.
