Ah, summer sales. Gotta love a good deal, right? The PS Store is throwing out some wild discounts, and I stumbled upon this gem that made my coffee go cold because I got way too distracted: Batman. Yeah, the Arkham Collection is like 90% off. I checked it thrice—couldn’t believe it. From $59.99 way down to six bucks. That’s like finding a twenty in your old coat pocket.
Okay, so what’s in this Batman bundle? You’ve got Arkham Asylum, City, and Knight. Iconic, right? So, you’re basically diving into the whole saga for around two bucks a game. Remember, these aren’t just any games; they’re like comic book heroes in digital form, minus the paper cuts.
But here’s the kicker: this deal doesn’t last forever. No, seriously, it ends July 31 at 2:59 a.m. ET. Why so specific? No clue. Maybe Batman himself set the timer. Who knows?
The collection’s description tugged at my gamer heartstrings. Something about “critically acclaimed” and “fully remastered visuals.” Heck, I’m sold. As if my backlog isn’t bad enough. But the description does make you feel like you’re one batarang away from being Bruce Wayne. You’ll be swinging around, tackling Gotham’s nastiest baddies and feeling like you could cut diamonds with your jawline.
Oh, and according to Metacritic, in case numbers are your thing: Arkham City scored a whopping 94. Talk about setting the bar. Meanwhile, Arkham Knight came in at 87. Still solid. It’s like comparing chocolate flavors, though—all good, just depends on your taste.
Sure, these games are critically acclaimed, but they also changed the game for… well, games. There’s something timeless about ’em, kind of like how your favorite comic doesn’t get old, just better with each read.
Anyway, if you’ve ever wanted to parade around as the Dark Knight himself, now’s your chance. But don’t dawdle—time’s ticking, and Gotham’s calling.
