Some of y'all just didn't know how to play with the batmobile and scared to admit it :mjgrin:

I didn’t grow up dreaming of battling in the bat-tank :francis: I fw the batmobile and batwing because those mfers could ZOOM. I just wanna go fast when I’m in a Batman vehicle

To me Arkham Knight had a better story, map, and side missions.

Spiderman has better gameplay, but the batmobile sections didnt bother me THAT much (besides the Deathstroke battle).

Might be in the minority but im voting Batman on this one.

And they copped outta some potential GOAT boss battles with that shyt too. Origins had the fire Deathstroke fight Knight should have had

They’re both my 1a and 1b of superheroes tho so the fact we’ve gotten great games outta both is :blessed:

Spider-Man had the better story and gameplay out of the two even though it came out four years later. Spider-Man borrowed most of it's game mechanics from Arkham Knight.

I love the first two Batman games in the Arkham series (and Origins) but Arkham Knight had a weak story out the gate with a predictable villain. The batmobile use should have been limited to maybe 2 different missions in the game. The Deathstroke mission should have been a 1-on-1 battle like in Arkham Origins instead of a chase mission.

I haven't played spiderman but lol at dudes acting like Arkham Knight is garbage. Literally EVERY Rocksteady Arkham game has been top quality.
I've been saying it for years. This forum has an illogical hatred for Arkham Knight in spite of it being one of the best games of the last decade.

I LOVED Spider-Man. But my vote goes to Arkham Knight.

Both games were great.

Combat was tighter in Batman, but Spider-Man traversal is damn near untouchable.

Story was pretty good in both. Spider-Man was predictable, but it felt like it took advantage of the fact that the audience knows more than the main character, and played it for maximum effect. The final fight at the end was more emotional than I expected it to be.

Both suffer from content that clearly pads olaytime (Spider-Man apparently is a top tier collector of things, and Rocksteady went full retard with the Riddler trophies in Knight).

Overall, I think I had a better overall experience with Spider-Man.
