    The Arkham formula brought to perfection!

    I was not expecting much. Honestly, even from the first game play trailers, I could feel unbreakable chains of sameness forcing my hype rocket to the ground. It looked so familiar I was not even interested in getting it ... Read Full Review

    The same thing. Almost nothing is changed.

    Although Arkham Origins somewhat treads through familiar territory, it still delivers a solid experience
