10 Incredibly Divisive Video Games Nobody Will Ever Agree On

9. Batman: Arkham Knight

Rocksteady's final instalment landed with not as much an almighty bang as one hell of a fireworks display. One hell of a graphical showcase and continually refined combat somewhat masked a handful of really sour business practices, alongside the reveal of the mysterious Knight himself being easily telegraphed from the very first thing he says. The Case For: Rocksteady do Batman better than anyone. There's just something about taking to the skies around Gotham, swooping in on unsuspecting thugs, battering the living daylights out of them and wrangling up the entire Rogue's Gallery of legendary villains in the process. The 'Be the Batman' slogan has never felt so appropriate, and most likely never will again. The Case Against: Being lied to by a creative studio for the sake of preserving the impact of a twist isn't anything new, but for AK the actual reveal wasn't very satisfying. The Batmobile was a forced inclusion that really started to show Rocksteady were struggling for new things to do, and both the missions that were designed around it and the 'Riddler Raceway' time trials just feel completely misplaced. My Take: I absolutely love the Batmobile. Its awesome. Sure we didn't need it, but diving into that thing, hearing the boost kick in with a satisfying "PHWOOM" and tearing off down Gotham to embody the legend of The Dark Knight made me genuinely giddy. The Arkham Knight battles were terrible. Simply nobody wanted to take him on in a giant tank, let alone more than once - and even after this, when you're sure you're going to have a good ol' fashioned beatdown a la the Deathstroke fight in Origins, he disappears again. Arkham Knight is a game with some absolutely unmatchable highs - and it'll be one of the Games of the Year for sure - but those lows are just all the more apparent because of it. Oh, and the Season Pass DLC has been unbelievably dire, too.
