I have waited for this game ever since I played Arkham City. To say it lived up to the massive amounts of hype I had for it was an understatement. Here are a few of my favorite parts (this is by no means my definitive rankings):
5) The soundtrack - Nick Arundel collaborates with David Buckley to make yet another fantastic score for the Arkham series. "Invasion" is my favorite track, very reminiscent of Arundel's Arkham City theme.
4) The Arkham Knight - Yes, the reveal was obvious to any comic book fan. Did that make it any less compelling? Heck no!!!
3) Dual Play - Playing as Batman and Nightwing at the same time was freaking awesome. It felt like a movie!
2) Scarecrow - I had no idea the character had this much potential as a villain. The combination of his fear toxin, John Noble's voice (yes, you read that right!), and his new look (he really embraces his super-villain side; Crane truly is no more) make one heck of an intimidating villain. He also accomplishes what no one in the Arkham series has done before - unmasking the Batman.
1) The Batmobile - This thing is freaking awesome. I could (and have!) driven it for hours on end.
All in all, incredible job Rocksteady on my favorite video game series of all time. You are vengeance, you are the night, YOU ARE BATMAN. I can only hope you will change your minds and make another Batman game some day.
