03.21.13 | Both are excellent but I slightly prefer Arkham personally however Red Dead's DLC is incredible |
HolidayKirk
03.21.13 | Yeah ugh what a fucking choice. You totally cannot buy both? |
Atari
03.21.13 | red dead redemption no contest. i actually like batman arkham asylum better than city, it's not as open world but it's better |
Spec
03.21.13 | Red Dead because it's one of the best games i've ever played. |
NOTINTHEFACE
03.21.13 | Batman. Both are great but Red Dead gets ridiculously easy and repetitive once you get past the awesome scope it has. That really killed it for me. Batman is interesting and varied to the end, and although it's linear there's so much variety I didn't care. |
demigod!
03.21.13 | Both are great but I'd go with Batman as well. Great fighting mechanics, and as NOTINTHEFACE expressed tons of variaton throughout. Perfect comic book game. |
Atari
03.21.13 | oh yeah definitely make sure to get the game of the year edition of read dead to get all the DLC |

03.21.13 | throw your 360 out, get a ps3, and go from there
RDR is a fucking absolute masterpiece and after all this time, i still go back and play it and i've had it since it came out like 2 years ago
arkham city is a great game, but it can never even touch RDR |

03.21.13 | red dead all the way |

03.21.13 | Tough choice, go with Batman if you're big into comics, otherwise pick up Red Dead. As a huge fan of comics, I enjoyed Batman more, but Red Dead is still a fucking masterpiece to me. |
Gyromania
03.21.13 | man, that is a really tough choice, but i'm gonna have to give it to arkham city because it was my goty. |
apert
03.21.13 | get red dead, one of the best games of the generation.
but definitely get arkham city and arkham asylum if you don't have that as well both are excellent i personally prefer the 1st but only slightly |
nononsense
03.21.13 | I'm Batman! |

03.21.13 | If you even remotely like the Batman franchise, Arkham City. RDR is one of Rockstar's crowning achievements, though. Both pretty fantastic games. |
DamnVanne
03.21.13 | Oh my jeebus. There is no competition here; Arkham City is a masterpiece and Red Dead is a pretty mindless and repetitive GTA shoot-out. Get Arkham City or pleb |
AngelofDeath
03.21.13 | Oh, if you can find that edition of Arkham City bundled with Arkham Asylum for the same price, that's an even better way to go. |
Gyromania
03.21.13 | You think red dead is mindless and repetitive like gta eh? Prob says the same of all sandbox games. Brilliant game is brilliant.
got the special edition arkham city game. so. friggin. awesome. |

are you fucking retarded or something |
ninjuice
03.22.13 | Both are amazing, Batman is better by a hair. |
DamnVanne
03.22.13 | I was just left with so little satisfaction after completing any event. The story has little drive to it, the wilderness has little to be discovered, the missions are VERY repetitive and VERY easy, the enemy and ally AI sucks, most of the mini-games are bland, and there are 10 fhgasjdhfgillion useless items to collect that are only good for achievements. The best thing about Red Dead is poker and Liar's Dice, and they didn't invent poker. Even killing bears seems mindless and repetitive. How do they even accomplish that? |
Gwyn.
03.22.13 | Batman for combat and exploration, Red Dead for atmosphere and shooting.
Both awesome. |
