Summary
-After defeating a henchman in combat, Batman no longer simply stands up straight. Instead, he will pause in an "interesting pose."

-Batman has a new fighting ability called "Weapon Steal," which allows him pick up weapons off the floor and use them against his enemies.

-Batman can use the surrounding environment against his enemies, such as taking things off the wall and smashing them on his opponent.

-The transitions between cutscenes and gameplay will flow much more smoothly.

-Arkham Knight uses motion-capture for cutscenes, including the face, body, and sometimes, the voice.

-If the voice actor can not preform due to traveling issues, their voice is dubbed over the motion-capture actor's voice.









In the explosive finale to the Arkham series, Batman faces the ultimate threat against the city he is sworn to protect. The Scarecrow returns to unite an impressive roster of super villains, including Penguin, Two-Face and Harley Quinn, to destroy The Dark Knight forever.
Batman: Arkham Knight introduces Rocksteady’s uniquely designed version of the Batmobile, which is drivable for the first time in the franchise. The addition of this legendary vehicle, combined with the acclaimed gameplay of the Batman Arkham series, offers gamers the ultimate and complete Batman experience as they tear through the streets and soar across the skyline of the entirety of Gotham City.

These games are so amazing. Don't know why Origins got as much hate as it did, but it was fun to me. Time to re-install and play em all again!

The motion capture part explains why Harley looks more like Tara Strong.

I haven't played the Arkham games in a looooooong time. Hell, I haven't played any videogame in a long time. I don't really have the time to.

Heh, you know what always drove me up the bloody wall? Whenever I tried to do a ground takedown.. didn't matter where I was, or how far off the other bastards were- eeeeeeeeeeevery time I tried to finish a guy when he was on the ground, some f*ck would sprint across the entire length of the map, and interrupt it.

Haha, I swear, some of those bastards were materialising out of thin air.

I played Origins a month or two after its release, so maybe they fixed the bugs by then.

Now this is a true next gen experience and the reason I bought a PS4. Evolve, Destiny, Watch Dogs, Infamous Second Son, and now Batman Arkham Knight are going to make me broke.

I hope Batman is more acrobatic this time around. That jump spin kick he did in the trailer was amazing.

I don't plan on getting next gen any time soon. So, I am just going to buy it for computer and plug in my xbox controller. Pretty much the same thing being that this game won't have multiplayer

Would be interesting if the Batsuit in the movies is going the classic fabric route while the games are going the armored route.
