10 Big Industry Gaffs Gaming Companies Want You To Forget
4. Mortal Kombat & Batman: Arkham Knight Ship Broken On PC (Warner Bros.)
Warner Bros. really didn't seem to have a good relationship with the PC this year, what with its disastrous releases for Mortal Kombat X and Batman: Arkham Knight not doing anything good for the publisher's reputation. Even if the titles in question were decent games, both their PC releases just completely dropped the ball. MK X suffered numerous technical issues, as did Arkham Knight, which is still fairly unplayable on a lot of set-ups 7 months after its initial release. This led to Rocksteady and Warner Bros. offering a refund for players effected by the release, but months of failed patches had already done the job of disillusioning dozens of customers with the company. As WB inevitably gears up for their 2016 slate, one can only hope that they hold the PC in higher regard - lest we see another repeat of last year's disasters.
