Announcing the Limited Edition Batman: Arkham Knight PS4 Bundle

I got a question. Previously, playstation has had exclusive batman arkham dlc. the joker dlc, was it permanent or timed & eventually released on 360?

I am pretty sure joker was permanent. the playstation store says the dlc is exclusive atleast until fall 2015 so 6 months is my guess or maybe indefinite, who knows if wb finds it worth it to release it later in the year.
 
Well there is a disclaimer on that dlc image saying DLC will be exclusive until at least Fall 2015. Seems to indicate it will eventually move to other platforms.
so is this the first time that the batman arkham dlc on playstation is a timed exclusive? did the 360 eventually get the dlcs that Ps3 had?

ah, well if joker was permanent, I have to wonder why sony couldn't make at least one of the arkham knight dlcs permanently exclusive as well.
 
You know, I really am torn if I would get the Arkham Knight PS4 console or the MGSV ps4 console (I'll preorder in play asia).

The Arkham Knight console is a beauty.
 
That didn't take long

You seem really "concerned" about this loss.

And the legitimacy of PS4 sales.

And Spotify???

Can't wait to see what you're concerned about next!

I'm just curious, man. When trends begin to differ in this industry, I tend to wonder why. I haven't tried out spotify on Ps4 for myself yet, but my earlier comments in that thread were about spotify itself, not in relation to Ps4. and legitimacy of Ps4 sales...what? I've stated before that I'm thrilled at how well the Ps4 has been selling.
 
Console is glorious and will, IMO, sell a metric shit ton.

Sony just killing it with marketing deals and bundles...Watchdogs, Last of Us, Destiny white, GTAV and now Arkham.

And then MGSV

Can't wait to see if they do a No Mans Sky LE.

I'm getting really curious to see just how well Bloodborne actually does. It's been a long time since I've seen the same game at the top of Amazon for 2 weeks straight. And the PS4 has been at the #4-6 spot for a long time as well.

Could be a big March
 
Would never own a limited edition console unless its GTA, Halo or Uncharted. I always have faith in those games, i dont want to look at that shitty image forever if i didnt end up liking and enjoying the game lol

If it was plain silver, i would be all over it.

I'm sure there's an eBay seller or something selling a plain silver clip on bit, if you don't like the branded part.
 
They should stop using pics with the blue LED on. Sadly, it's WHITE most of the time.

Hope they let us change it to blue sometimes in the future...
 
Damn thats nice...I dont think I will get one, but if I didnt already have a launch PS4, I would definitely have gotten that one, or the white one.
 
Just catching up on this today. Is there even the smallest of possibilities it goes up on Amazon again? I'd rather Amazon ship it to me over best buy.

It's possible. It went OOS about half an hour after Amazon first started taking pre-orders, then there was a restock later in the day. Could happen again, you'd just have to be watching the page frequently.
 
I wish it actually included this as a download. Actually, I'd be happy for a Rocksteady game based on the 1960's series.

I knew they would announce some kind of LE PS4 after I bought mine. Didn't really expect a Batman one, but it's not bad looking. Maybe I'll see about selling mine...

I would prefer a different approach to the gameplay if that was the case. Something like LA Noire, where you're driving around and trying to solve puzzles, with just the occasional fight thrown in. More cerebral and lighthearted. You would try to determine where the hideouts are for the different criminals and then you'd try to thwart their plans in real time (bank robberies, kidnappings, etc).

I'm not saying that it shouldn't be Rocksteady, I just don't want an Arkham game with a 60's Batman skin. Let's go for something different!
 
The $399 AK bundle and this LE will sell a shitload of consoles. I can only imagine something similar will happen with whoever gets Battlefront co-marketing too. I expect those to be the two games that get a lot of people to upgrade.
 
The only other npd sale i see aony losing is the one where halo is released but thats a given and maybe drcember if they have a good deal again
 
Looking at the pics - i gotta say that the system looks great but the controller looks spectacular.

This will sound strange but the dark box with that hulking batman looks soo good (from a marketing perspective). I can't image what kid would walk into a Gamestop/Bestbuy and not want that box (and what's in it of course).

Yeah it seems to be a very smart play from a business standpoint in linking themselves with some of the biggest releases. I know gamers like to lament that these aren't really "exclusives" but Sony is probably spending a fraction of the cost to grab a big title as an "exclusive" and garnering a lot of the game benefit and good will you get from it by being so closely associated with stuff like Destiny, GTAV and now Batman.
