Yeah, I have no problem waiting. I am tired of being nickel and dimed with DLC, and I always maintain a backlog of games to play.

What I generally do with a must-have game is buy it day 1, play through it as quickly as I can, and then trade it in ASAP. Thanks to Best Buy's pre-order bonuses and GCU benefits I usually come out even and sometimes actually make a profit.

Then when the GOTY version is released I'm in no hurry to get that either, because I've already played through most of the game's good content. About 95% of DLC sucks.

Those first two, Season of Infamy and Gotham City Stories look like the crappiest thing to lose out on by not getting the season pass. Holding out the ability to fight other villains and play as other allies

I would also guess:

Spoiler:
Batgirl is Oracle before she wound up in he chair, so I'm guessing her DLC takes place after Origins but before Asylum. Good chance the the Joker will be a part of her story.

Re: Batman: Arkham Knight - 6/23/15 on Xbox One, PS4, and PC

I was looking forward to this but the thought of them trying to push a Season pass that is 40 bucks will have me leaning towards waiting for the GOTY. Dark Souls 2 has chewed up 70 hours of my time in the past few weeks and I haven't touched Mortal Kombat X aside from one gaming session. Witcher 3 is a must and they will being giving us some DLC without reaching in my pocket while I'm looking the other direction.

cdkeys.com is selling the PC version for only $24.99, and with the season pass for $35.75. Great deal, I think i'm going to bite the bullet on it. I was going to get this on XBox, but I can get everything for much less.

Meanwhile, video for the voice cast.

I'm confused. It says PC + DLC. Makes it seem like they are offering both for $24.99.

I believe DLC refers to the pre-order Harley Quinn content. The "Premium" version mentions that - http://www.cdkeys.com/pc/games/batma...c-cd-key-steam

Oh, wow. I misunderstood your previous post and thought they were selling the season pass for $35.75. That is an excellent deal.

So how legit are cdkeys? Cos I may bite on this deal?

Ah, gotcha. I'm not sure, I've never used them myself but searched on Google as I was worried too and a few forums have people vouching for them.

I asked a friend about it and a friend of his told me he's used them before. This was the deal he recently got from them on MKX for Steam.

The main guy talking is annoying as fuck but the other 2 do good in talking a bit about the game.

Yeah. Looking at the fighting... I really wish we could have a live action Batman that could do that in a film. Bats' fighting in film is the one thing getting slightly better w/ each interpretation. I just.. like my Bats to be acrobatic in his fighting.

I need to go back and re-play Arkham City, mostly because I completely forgot what happened in that game. I know I played it, but except for the intro, I honestly don't remember it.

I still haven't decided whether I should cancel my vanilla pre-order or the sold-out Limited Edition pre-order. I'm leaning towards cancelling the LE as I don't really think the included figure looks that good.

Picture of Limited Edition content :
(also might be a bit of a spoiler on the base of that statue for those with really good eyes)

Spoiler:


Might wait for an unboxing before deciding...

Amazon has a new bundle for an extra $10 that comes with a hardcover graphic novel

Yeah, if that were the $100 bundle it would have been an easy decision.
