10 Times Video Games "Did Right By The Fans" (And Pissed Everyone Off)

10. Including The Batmobile - Batman: Arkham Knight

After years of fans asking for Rocksteady to include a playable Batmobile in one of their Batman: Arkham games, they finally pulled the trigger for Batman: Arkham Knight.

Yet the result is one of gaming's finest examples of "be careful what you wish for."

Though in theory using the Batmobile to traverse Gotham is awesome, in reality the game excessively forces the player to use it in a variety of frustrating and simply unenjoyable situations.

Mandatory combat and even stealth sequences while driving the Batmobile proved especially frustrating, enough that many went on to regret the vehicle's inclusion in the game at all.

The Batmobile in Arkham Knight was a textbook example of giving players too much of a good thing - or rather, taking an excellent idea and running it firmly into the ground.

The Batmobile should've functioned primarily as a means of transport in the main game, with the tiresome tank combat being reserved for side content at absolute most.
