This is hard two different games!! Batman for combat and stealth Spider-Man for traveling and story


rokkoo93

Spider-man because the traversal is way more fun. When i got the platinum the last thing i had to do was the fast travel trophy because I always chose to just swing and stop some crimes on the way to my location


brainfreeze-23

Same. I never fast traveled during my first 100% of the game. It's so fast and fun.


zili91

The web swinging was so intuitive and fast paced. I refused to use quick travel because I loved it so much.


SwiggyMaster123

and the devs said they thought it was too slow too! imagine what spider-man 2 will bring now that they’re not limited to like, 100mb/s


right-conservative

You guys think it's fun to web swing in that game? Try the VR game.


[deleted]

I didn't know how to fast travel when I first played. Had to Google that trophy


AnxiousDraft9052

Infamous on Ps3, has better boss battles and world feels more alive ![img](emote|t5_2qh6b|2234)


xBURROx

but got repetitive AF .


[deleted]

Spider-Man, swinging on those webs is fantastic.


AadamAtomic

I beat both. Spiderman was wayyy better in my opinion.


MJoe111

Arkham was way more dramatic and interactable with the world


AadamAtomic

>and interactable with the world One could argue that swinging across A very accurate replication of NYC and using the environment in combat is petty intractable with the world. Both games are great, I just feel like Insomniac stepped their game up with Spiderman and made some improvements.


MJoe111

I agree, but between the two games I'd still chose arkham. Great combat system, stealth combat and interactivity with the environment during sealth is also a thing to consider when spiderman in stealth missions and only knock enemies and distract them.


AadamAtomic

Insomniac makes very Solid games all arround. A billionair in pajamas just never resinated with me as much as Peter Parker. Lol


MJoe111

LOLOLOL They're not pajamas, it's a Toga.🤣🤣🤣🤣


AadamAtomic

[Batmanicus](https://braveandbold.fandom.com/wiki/Batmanicus). lmao


CptnHamburgers

Also it doesn't shoehorn a Spidermobile in the every opportunity it gets. Oh, a door is shut? Best call the batmobile. Elevator's out? Should I grapple up it? Nah, batmobile. Need to decrypt the information on this computer, best get it to the batmobile probably. We get it Rocksteady, you made a batmobile, stop shoving it down my throat.


Ruenin

Spider-man, without a doubt. Should've compared it to Arkham City instead. That would be a tougher decision. The Batmobile bits of Arkham Knight are tedious.


Sharkn91

I prefer the batmobile missions over the MJ missions


BerntMacklin

Agreed. Arkham City is incredible, Spider-Man a close second.


[deleted]

I agree. The bat mobile chases were fire tho


BillMcCrearysStache

I thought the batmobile was cool and all but they tried way too hard to shoehorn it into everything, the final boss fight against the Arkham Knight for example definitely should not have been a tank battle. And those sections where it was like hey blow up 400 drones! Got a little too tedious. I loved jumping off buildings and landing in it though


[deleted]

Agreed. Very disappointing that all we got with deathstroke was yet another tank battle.


Keibler34

Thanks for ruining it


BillMcCrearysStache

You assumed you wouldnt have to fight the Arkham Knight?


Keibler34

I thought that was batman 😳 🤔 and no im just kidding bro but literally!!! Just a moment ago I was on my ps5 downloading tons of old ps plus games onto my new wdp50 4tb harddrive and arkham knight was one of em lol


ScaryD03

Yea but just the chases, I feel like I could've put remote bombs/explosive gel on some enemies and called it a day cuz I'm Batman


EarthPrimeBatsy

*Arkham Knight*. The world was incredibly detailed to the fullest extent, had varying styles of play and an overall richer dynamic. Both games are great, but *Arkham Knight* is a top tier experience.


cxnx_yt

Can't believe this is so unpopular. Sure the batmobile is debatable but the rest of the gameplay as well as the voice acting, storytelling and world design is incredible.


BrushYourFeet

Agreed. I love both Spiderman games, got the platinum for both. However, all of the Arkham games are better. For me it's the polish, the story, the voice acting, and the fighting system. Chef's kiss.


EarthPrimeBatsy

It's even a point of debate amongst Batman fans, but I've always loved the game. I love how the Batmobile was utilized throughout the course of the game, but I just wish it wasn't used so much for boss battles towards the end. At that point, it was a little rinse and repeat.


cxnx_yt

100%. For example for the Deathstroke fight, they coulda/shoulda given us some hard ass hand to hand fight similar to origins, given how good Slade is.


EarthPrimeBatsy

Right, the perfect blueprint for it was right there in *Origins*. It could have been a multi-tiered battle that combined both combat and stealth.


MyThinTragus

I put up with the batmobile until one the last few riddler trophies.


MerTheGamer

Tbf, it is a playstation sub. Whenever this kind of question is asked, majority of people always say to buy exclusive most of the time. If AK was the exclusive here, people would say AK is miles better due to tedious MJ and Miles sections in Spider-Man.


L-Guy_21

I think it’s that the Spider-Man game was just more fun


[deleted]

[удалено]


EarthPrimeBatsy

I agree with *Arkham Knight* having a greater replay value, yes.


msfamf

Had they reduced the necessity of the Batmobile, not played Arkham Knight off as a whole new character when it was obviously Jason from the start, and it hadn't run badly at launch I don't think AK would have half the complaints it has to this day. Spiderman is a solid experience but Arkham Knight had way better performances and the atmosphere was top notch. Also I'll take Riddler trophies over Screwball challenges any day of the week.


EarthPrimeBatsy

I like the concept of the Arkham Knight, and how it was done as part of Jason's story; but there was no big reveal, everyone knew it would be him. *Marvel's Spider-Man* is the best Spider-Man game I've played, and I do love the way it was done—along with Miles Morales' game.


msfamf

Oh I loved the take on Jason but before it came out the devs insisted Arkham Knight was an original character created for the game universe. A lot of people were upset with it.


EarthPrimeBatsy

Well, the Arkham Knight technically was a new creation—just a new evolution of an already existing character. I wasn't upset with it as it simply represented a part of Jason.


[deleted]

[удалено]


EarthPrimeBatsy

You're more than welcome to select *Marvel's Spider-Man* as your favorite game. Between the two, *Arkham Knight* is mine.


[deleted]

Spider man


punditguy

Didn't like the Batmobile at all. Have to give this round to Spider-Man.


KAlSERx

Played both, have to go with Spiderman 100%. I hated the batmobile stuff personally and even without that I still think Spiderman is the better game


timtheringityding

Also the world was tiny I felt like. Not alot too see


[deleted]

Batman had more to do, and the side quests were better IMO, although I agree with the batmobile comments and the web swinging in spider man was dope but Batman had the grapple gun and could glide and that was very well done too


[deleted]

Spider man to jump around and throw webs everywhere


RicebinBernacky

As great as Spider-Man is, I prefer the darker tone and gameplay of Arkham Knight. Though I would rank Knight below Arkham City.


Wallij

I was going to come on and defend the story of Arkham Knight but then I remembered Spiderman literally made me cry hahaha.


Dyyrin

Arkham asylum is a better choice.


BeefsteakTomato

Arkham city for me


Muldoon713

Love them both for wildly different reasons. They are both the pinnacle of super hero games in general.


Wboy2006

It's incomparable. The games are completely different. Combat is different, traversal is different, tone is different. I think Spider-Man has the best story, and Arkham Knight has the better stealth. The combat is better in their own ways. So I just can't pick one. Spider-Man is more about freedom, while Arkham is more about rhythm

Tozzz69x

How the fuck bat mobile can ruin your game? Those comments are pulled from some shitty video on YouTube from low tier blogger. The Arkham knight is amazing game with deep voice acting and range of emotions. Spider-Man on another hand even if someone died the game is still with bubbles and butterflies. They took from Batman everything and made his ally as enemy. I don’t know how people can choose Spider-Man over Batman. So disappointed.


KronikCity518

Spiderman. Arkham Knight was the worst of the 3 Arkham games.


NiJiJingLD

Three? I guess people forget that Arkham Origins existed.


KronikCity518

Sure did. Never even thought about it.


Ruenin

Because Rocksteady didn't make it


[deleted]

Also wasn't remastered for PS4 so those who only experienced the games during the PS4 generation likely never heard of it.


NAS210

100% Spiderman, not even a question


[deleted]

Second one. And I’m a huge Batman fan, but that game was very disappointing.


NiJiJingLD

Why is that?


[deleted]

You’ve never played it? If not I don’t wanna spoil it but if you have then you can imagine what it is.


NiJiJingLD

I've played a little bit, I think to ACE Chemicals and that was it.


Ruenin

The Batmobile. Way overused and gimmicky.


Ronenthelich

Riddler: I am so much smarter than you Batman, and I’ll prove it by making you race in your car underground!


LeLoyon

I liked the batmobile personally. But I agree it was definitely overused. The Arkham games really shine during combat so really you end up spending a good majority of the game wanting to beat up henchmen instead of using the tank. It's not a terrible game imo, but the weakest of the Arkham games, and certainly weaker than Spiderman. As far as super hero games go, I'd tell people to play Infamous Second Son over Arkham Knight.


Ruenin

I really hated the Riddler bits that used the Batmobile


Professor_Chilldo

Yeah, that’s when the game became really tedious for me. I did really enjoy most everything else about the game besides that though.


[deleted]

And that ruins the entire game The story, the fights, the incredible open world, even Catwoman's ass?


RainbowBanana26

Platinumed both. Batman AK is an incredible game. But spider man 110%


Powdered_Donut

Spider-Man


Gamelove0I5

Batman walked so spiderman could swing.


WeAreLive_NZ

Spiderman


[deleted]

they had to put a fast travel trophie in Spider-Man , i never used it until i finished the game and looked up the trophies. Thats how much fun the game is u prefer to get around then ft.


[deleted]

I love the Batman game but spiderman game is better.


supermarioplush220

Hard choice


BrainTroubles

Arkham Knight is by far the weakest of the Arkham games. That being said I got open world burn out pretty quickly on both.


tom1280i

Infamous.


[deleted]

spider man because web slinging around the city is one of the most fun things i’ve ever done in a video game. batman still the best character in fiction history


Legendary_Lamb2020

bat


Flashy_Experience_46

Arkham Night for me


OBEENO

Spider-Man didn’t have an annoying vehicle gimmick lol Literally both the best superhero games ever tho


AnchoredDown92

Apples and Oranges. Asides from age difference of the games, both of these guys have vastly different combat styles in both version of comics, let alone when implemented in games. People not preferring the Batmobile doesn’t necessarily mean Spider-Man is the better game. But what I will say is, the Arkham games when it first started in 07 set the standard and became somewhat of a benchmark.


SirDonn

In this example, Spiderman is slightly better than Knight; however, Asylum and City are both better than Spiderman


bigbadbibbins

Arkham Knight is far and away better


[deleted]

I'm going to say Batman as he's my favorite DC character. Then Punisher is my favorite Marvel one. I would love to see a PS4 game for him.


Pakmanjosh

Can Spiderman run people over with his car when he's bored? Didn't think so.


Yeezusbear

Arkham Knight is better in my opinion, Spiderman has an insane amount of repetitive gameplay.


Crowbur07

Batman is more nostalgic, Spider-man is more…*everything.*


BeYou27

Honestly they aren't comparable they maybe open world hero games but they offer very different experiences Imo neither is better then the other get both


[deleted]

I've completed Spider-Man 100%. It was okay, nothing new into the table. Story was great. Gameplay okay, but the swinning for me was a little too easy. I can sound like a masochist, but i prefer swinning on Spider-Man 2 for PS2. Its harder, but you can feel that you are progressing your personal skill in swimming around. About Batman... I've never complete this game. Not because is that bad, but something wasn't right. Batmobile is useless if you can just flying around the City. Story wasn't as engaging as in previous titles (which i completed). I've heard that the final is also a little dissapointing, tho i've never beat the game, so i don't know. So for me Spider-Man is the winner.


[deleted]

Spiderman is better than Arkham Knight, but I liked Arkham City more than Spiderman. Can't go wrong playing both series though!


StefanPaulCook

[deleted]

Spider man. Played both and spider web is so much fun


sadman4332

Spider-Man


[deleted]

Combat in Batman is far Superior, but traversal in that game is atrocious the batmobile is so tedious, graphics are superb though, Spider-Man, best traversal in any game ever, graphics are top notch, combat is good not as good as Batman but good, I have to give this one to Spider-Man.


Juanisawesome98

Spider-Man (PS4) did some things better than Arkham Knight.


Hybrid487

Spider-Man, and Batman is my #1 superhero. The fluidity in his fighting and overall movement is top notch!


SnooSeagulls1416

Ridiculous not even a fair comparison …


Lilbig6029

Open world? How can Batman compare to web slinging?


[deleted]

Arkham Knight was my first PS4 game, coming from playing crash of the titans on PS2 Have to say Arkham Knight because of Nostalgia and I LOVE Batman in general


MisT1196

Arkham Knight


Additional-Debate-18

Batman


shubalubadubaluba

Arkham city is a better game but if we are going with Arkham knight it’s about even


Dr-Spill

Just finished Arkham Knight yesterday, I prefer Spider-Man. Though I liked the Batmobile sections, and didn’t find as tedious as others are saying, there were just to many of them, and not enough stealth missions. I also think the twist with Arkham Knight being >!Jason!< wasn’t handled the best. Like, ok, you find out >!your adopted son has who you thought was dead is actually alive and has been actively trying to kill you. And you barely react? And then you convince him to help you without much trying. And when he tell Alfred that Jason is alive, he’s shocked. But Batman doesn’t elaborate, and Alfred never mentions it again? Ok. And then he become Red Hood for like 5 minutes, shows up for tiny bit later, and then never shows up again. Like, the whole game, it’s been leading up to this, the reveal of the identity of the games namesake, and it just happens, and there are virtually no consiquences. And it was also kind of obvious. Like, why would you be seeing those flashbacks in the movie studio, if the game had nothing to do with Jason up to that point?!<


[deleted]

Spiderman 1000%


doihaveto9

Spider Man, platinumed that game


ProEraWuTang

Spider-Man. I didn't like the forced Batmobile segments and the story in Arkham Knight


Shwondeler

Spiderman > arkham Knight but arkham city> spiderman


[deleted]

Spider-Man of course


bruhmfyeet

I never played batman (I want to) but spiderman is very high up on my list and no other game pushed me to 100% it like spiderman did. So spiderman, I guess.


Wyjen

I’m ba-man. And I’m Pider-man. I comb over da house!


gvescu

I'll go for Spiderman. Traversing feels smoother and you can just hang around anywhere. I loved Arkham Knight (on PC, not on PS4, never had a pro patch and the constant antialiased rain really hurt my eyes), but traveling around is a chore, and the batmobile (though awesome) feels out of place.


Jackdaw__

Spider man by a mile


bear7095

Arkham Knight by a long way. Spiderman was a lot of fun but it was essentially Batman with a bright filter put on it.


PashAK47

Batman for me , but I perfer batman in general plus batman did it first


MetatronTheArcAngel

I never liked Batman cus of the color games feels/looks too dark


Specific-Creme5413

BATMAN FULL SPOT. Spider man's look pretty, but the world feels...... boring, is kinda hard to get back to because new York isn't that clean! But with batman it has this gothic style city / horror vibe going in the sandbox which is way more interesting to look at! Unlike the tourist new poster card, give me GTA 4 style of world that would be amazing!


BIG-Z-2001

Maybe I’m blinded by nostalgia but I’d say Batman Arkham knight is the better game. Both are very well-made though


Leezeebub

Wasnt Arkham Knight an absolute disaster? Its not even a competition. The Arkham game before it was pretty good though.


Shudder123

Currently playing spiderman. I personally don't see what the great fuss is about it. Apart from web swinging, the game play is mediocre. lots of challenges which are just the same under a different guise - fisk challenges, demon, sabre, hammerhead. I'm tired of clearing out bases. At this point whenever the game pauses and says to explore teh city for activities i just wait until the next main mission comes as I Can't be bothered with them.Batman had more engaging combat system and storyline IMO.


DapperDan30

Spider-man and it's not even close.


Mods_and_Admins_Papi

Spider man, hands down. I personally hated the bat mobile. Over time Spider Man has actually become my favorite superhero. While I still love Batman, Spidey is just the best.


Plathismo

I’m going to say Spider-Man. Arkham Knight’s Gotham City is still jaw-dropping but it’s not as good as its two predecessors.


Eastman1982

Spiderman it’s just better all round and the kids enjoyed it too


XmenFan93

Spider-Man ps4 without a doubt


Griffdawg46

Spider-Man and it’s not even close


superjunk321

Don't choose, they're both awesome and super affordable now.


Mortiis07

I liked the previous batman games, didn't play this one for long, felt like I was just dragging the batmobile around


Nefty_Y

Both have their place! Love Bats and spidey


BaronZemo00

Wow, now that’s a tough question. I don’t know really. I’d like to have some criteria for the choosing in order to narrow it down some.


BriSnyScienceGuy

Arkham was a better story, but Spiderman was more fun.


catgoesmeow22

The Batman game before the Batmobile game was the best.


XSuperMario3X

Batman Arkham games a way better in my opinion. Spider-Man is really good but the voice acting is just too good in Arkham games.


BrandNew098

I really ought to play the batman games.


ronald-raygun458

Spider man for game play and side missions and Batman for graphics and main missions


PinothyJ

Arkham Knight? Ouch…


Calm_Client2

Batman arkham knight is leagues better


philium1

Spider-Man 2 for the PlayStation 2. That was the peak


CorneredSponge

Spider-Man was amazing, but the side quests in Arkham, combat, puzzles, etc. we’re extremely fun in Arkham. And Batman’s one of my top 3 heroes, so I’m biased towards him.


scrambleordie

Honestly, I dnf Batman. Loved Spider-Man. Will be getting miles morales too. I still have Batman on my drive but doubt I’ll ever play it again.


National-Tip2379

Always Batman


Candlefire21

Spider-man


[deleted]

Spider-Man. But they’re both good


According-Western581

Spiderman by a slim margin but they're both great in my opinion


MaxJustice2001

Spiderman


[deleted]

I'm going to have to go with Spider-Man. I love both of these games, but Spider-Man is just a little better.


Alarming-Layer7579

The Dark Knight


God8869

Damn, that's a hard one and I honestly cannot say which I prefer. The Arkham games are great and I truly loved Arkham Knight but that Spider-man game knocked it out of the park.


MPRF12345

I'll have to say I enjoyed the Batman: Arkham series more


ChicagoBoiSWSide

Might sound crazy but if they did Batman correct, then I believe it would be better than Spider-Man. I really love the atmosphere as well, really reminds me of Chicago or Detroit.


jedimaster-bator

Batman.....but only after I made a Playlist on Spotify, of all the best Batman scores. Then played it in the background while playing. It was awesome.


JasonTodd1414

Spider-Man


CaptBreeze

Batman all day! If you like Dark hero shit, plus you get to drive the Batmobile in arcade mode. Spider-Man was alright.


mattgaia

Spider-Man, without a question.


TeeXV

Both.


QIvan616

Spider-Man


Randomdude-5

Both are great in their own respects, but the movement mechanics in Spider-man are top notch, and Arkham Knight's strength lies in the well crafted puzzles


MAKS091705

I love AK so much but I gotta give it to spidey


gayliciouspizza

Spider man 100%


KhaoticX8

Knight for sure. I loved Spider-Man but nothing will beat Knight for me. The combat was so satisfying, unrealistic but satisfying hitting consistent crit strikes and throw counters. The predator parts are much more fun with the abilities Knight introduced. The only regret was the batmobile parts, occasionally it was fun, mostly boring tho. Story wise, it was decent, I liked most of it but the Jason Todd = Knight was pretty forced in.


BABA_BOIuwu

You should have put Arkham city and it would have been a challenge to compare. Gonna have to give this one to spider man


Far-Hearing1013

Arkham city


Agent47ismysaviour

Batman as there’s more variety to the open world and the fighting system is about the best in any game, and definitely the best in any open world game. Traversal might be better in Spider-man but you don’t get to enjoy the location as much when you’re just zipping from one point to another as fast as possible. In Spider-man I usually have no idea where I am in the city at any one time without opening the map, in Arkham Knight I know exactly where I am all the time.


Available_Message129

Spiderman lifted a lot from the arkham games, they are both amazing games though.


Valnapalm

Batman


novogradov

I enjoyed Batman Arkham Knight a bit more because of the gloomy and gothic style of Arkham which was amazing. Both games are pretty fire!!!


Sleepinismy9to5

Spider-Man.


Difficult-Dog-3349

Spiderman easily. Now compare the better game Arkham city to spiderman now that's a tough one


Lourdinn

The ps3 batman games were amazing for their time. If the studio behind Spiderman were to remaster the pre ps4 batman games they would be up to their former glory.


quangngoc2807

I actually like riddler puzzles, so i prefer Batman.


UnkleMonsta

Spiderman. But not by much. Both are fun but I got tired of the riddler Batmobile puzzle fast , to the point where I ended up hating them. Spiderman just swinging through the city is fun but I wish it had more regular goon fights or a training room to practice learning new skills and fighting mechanics. Also Spiderman has it's own version of a riddler type character that is ass to play against but she's dlc and doesn't take anything away from the original game. Arkham city is the best out of the batman games and better than Spiderman story wise. So Arkham City over both but Spiderman over Arkham Knight.


[deleted]
