Great games, awful DRM

Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2013

Verified Purchase

The Batman Arkham Action Pack has two games that defied my expectations with regards to license based games. This may be due to some of the other awful past games such as Superman 64 and the Aquaman game for gamecube, but when I played these games you can actually believe that you are playing as the Dark Knight (in Arkham City you can also play as Catwoman, I haven't played too much of that yet though) and is a very well realized release.

So why only four out of five stars? Well, the biggest issue I had was the use of DRM in this case. The use of Games for Windows is completely unnecessary when this can be redeemed with Steam. What makes this worse is SecuROM which actually corrupted my Arkham City install and I had to reinstall as a result. (It doesn't like multiple OS computers apparently so I may have to look at bypassing SecuROM on grounds of operability issues.) This was completely unnecessary and only serves to punish paying customers.

Cool, keyboard controls not ideal

Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2012

Verified Purchase

This bundle was a great deal at $10 for both. The games are great, interesting plot and missions, and the combat and movement really let you get into the fantasy of being Batman. I will say keyboard controls are not ideal; one move, avoiding being stabbed, seems completely impossible at some angles with the keyboard. Both games are still beatable without being able to do it, but it's annoying. I really enjoyed the Bruce Timm vision and voices being used in the game, but it's too bad they couldn't also bring back some of the amazing supporting voices from the original animated series like Catwoman, Batgirl (for Oracle) and Ra's. I recommend the games, especially if you have a controller.

2 GREAT games.

Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2012

Normally I don't play superhero video games. The last one I've played was Spiderman on N64. Yes I am old. I've played through AA already and I only had 2 spots where I had an issue. After the first time you fight Scarecrow I tried leaving the room and it crashed. Tried waiting till the cut scene completly ended (Batman is talking to Batgirl at this time) and It still crashed. I fired it up in windowed mode and was able to leave the room and continue on.

The next spot was also after a scarecrow fight. MY rig slowed to about 5 fps after the second or third Scarecrow fight. It didn't crash however.

Rig specs.

If it brings this system to a crawl then you might expect much worse if you're running older/less powerful hardware.

Other than those 2 issues the game is excellent. It's about 50/50 detective work/figuring out mazed and beating up bad guys.

Probably one of the best games I've ever played. Can't finish AC.

Two of the best Batman games, EVER!

Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2012

Verified Purchase

I bought both of these when they were on sale for about $10. Well worth it considering how awesome both these games are.I had already played Arkham Asylum on the 360 before so picking it up for the PC is just a bonus for me.Arkham City I hadn't played before so the $10 price I bought both of these for during the sale is a steal. Amazon makes you download something for both these games but the main game download I had to do over STEAM after entering the product redeem codes on STEAM.

Both games will work with the official MS 360 controllers if you have them set up for your PC. They are both also LIVE enabled so achievements earned get added to your XBOX LIVE gamerscore.

You will need a pretty beefy PC setup if you plan to run the game with all the graphic settings maxed out but for those who don't have the highest specs, luckily you can adjust almost every single graphic setting in the game in order to optimize it for your machine.

Batman Deal

Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2012

Verified Purchase

I all ready owned Batman Arkham Asylum GOTY and wanted Batman Arkham City. I was going too wait too purchase Batman Arkham City GOTY but this deal was so good I had too get it. I get too start playing Batman Arkham City now. They each come with a STEAM key for only $9.99 but with a code I had provided by Amazon the two game package actually only cost me $7.49! I love the graphics and the original storyline adventures as you work your way through the stories as the Bat! Both games for the price of half the cost of one.
Note: Batman Arkham City does not contain any DLC's.

Great Value, Annoying windows Live

Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2013

Verified Purchase

I got it with a promotion from Amazon and it's wonderful value. Used the access code and downloaded the game through steam no problem. I started with Batman Arkham Asylum and the game is fun, catching, and smooth.

However, when I tried to switch to another computer and continue my progress it gave me huge trouble. Steam doesn't have the game save in cloud, and Windows live basically tries to BLOCK everyone from using the game in a different computer, not even if it's the same code and same live account. I had to do my google research for 20min and copied several folders to finally port my progress. Not to mention that I'll have to do this again and again if I'd like to switch back and forth.

Anything related to Microsoft softwares seem to have a lot of restriction and bugs, including Windows Live Account in my opinion, be careful if you have multiple computers, or if you'd like to reinstall your computer/game and keep your progress with any Windows Live game.

Batman as it was intended.

Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2013

Now this is how batman is intended. Brings back many fond memories of the Paul Dini animated series with the spot-on voice acting. Shame that they changed the voice behind Harley Quinn between Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, but the new voice actor is passable.

Still, if you want to feel like batman, this is the game series for you.
