Gotcha. I assumed that they'd be be a higher tier in the channel packages - but that makes sense now.

Why is it that the UK gets a lot of this stuff for free? Is it a deal that Sky or whatever works out with the promotions?

Only thing I'm interested in is the Ronda fight - but after Dana being a piece of shit about wrestlers the other day and the fact that the Rousey fight is going to be able to be contained within a GIF, it's not even worth walking across my backyard to the bar for it.

Also, the two new videos from March and May are still considered part of the series. But now they're talking about positive role models as an aside so rabble rabble rabble.

I must've listened to Jesus a million times.

I've been preaching it since the day I tried it, and it has worked wonders for a few people - I think it's the only way to drive the damn thing. The auto switch out to third person for the battle mode is really fluid and it makes getting up and going really easy, I say give it a try because it really upped my own game.

In third person mode, the camera for sure hurts the handling and makes it hard to do the power turns.

I went back and played the Riddler missions multiple times to get top scores and I really enjoyed one upping my scores on the race tracks especially. The stuff where you needed to use the car to get down to lower levels was fun too and the dynamics of the car were really well implemented. Once you started to upgrade the tank and get the different ways to deal with the new multitudes of tanks, that was fun as well - and they kept introducing new kinds of enemy drones to spice it up. *shrug*

I'm just happy there's going to be a break up in the usual commentary due to this.

I'd like to see something with a populated area too. Wait. Deathstroke game in that universe. Superhero/villain hitman game.

This is silly - it's just needed to keep civilians off the street and only put them in the places where it's needed. There's no way to make a game where Batman drives around the streets at mach speed in the Batmobile, with cannons and chain guns plausible to work and stay lore friendly (when they are barely doing so with the 'safe takedowns' of criminal cars) safe for 'keeping civilians in the city' when what is going on within Gotham would see 99 percent of the population stay inside anyways. Taking out the Batmobile is a terrible idea too, because you still end up with the logic that people should be inside their houses and you've then removed a lot of the awesome puzzles and side missions that required the car to differentiate it from the other games in the first place. As far as stakes go, Scarecrow essentially polluting Gotham and making it uninhabitable while trying to break/prove something to Batman seems pretty strong to me. If you wanted to go super, super dark and get mass genocide in there - I see that being the only real benefit to making it a point to say that the entire population is still around, but those who didn't stay inside would likely try to flee and that would fill up the streets and then you can't have your Batmobile or free thug movement anyways.

The "driving the Batmobile and running thugs 'safely' over" thing is barely explainable the way that that it is now. Add in civilian cars and stuff and I don't think there's a way you can make that work.

Go and try a PS2 game and tell me the same thing. I had a go at Here comes the Pain recently, because I remember loving that one. I barely got through one match, the controls were absolutely dire compared to what we have now. I actually JUST played this last night testing out my new computer rig and yeah, I was going to say the exact same there. There is very, very little when it comes to anything that actually carries over from Here Comes The Pain - I mean the speed and feel of the game is still closer to Smackdown! 2 (which I also tried and holy fuck) than anything else. I can say one thing - wrestling games have evolved a hell of a lot more than any sports game on the same release schedule.

Not to mention that most copies will likely come with it regardless of pre-order anyways.

Holy crap, he didn't even post the trailer.

I'd rather have the pre-order be something crazy like that instead of a wrestler that I'd miss out on.

There isn't really, well not how you're describing. People from PC and PS4 can play against each other, but you can't create parties or whatever so it would be down to random luck (or using barely populated servers and specific settings) in setting up games cross platform. Cross platform custom games are coming in the next feature update (parties is still being worked on). No date for that though. Thanks for that, I'll be waiting until that gets patched in then.

Christ, I keep forgetting that there is PC/PS4 cross play and I'm interested. Anyone playing on PC with the PS4 fellas right now?

What's a 'real' game mode?

I was JUST playing it actually, no issues.

I got lucky on the drill part - I was stressed out the whole time but I beat it on my first go and promptly had to take a break from the stress.

Digitally? Naw. There was a pretty decent sized blowup over that.

Get the auto-nav DLC.

I saw a walkthrough video for Batgirl and it was just under an hour in length.

I enjoyed the gameplay and story. I played through it three times.
