Batman: Arkham City

[DrVenkman PhD]

I've had no problems, and I have Catwoman/Robin/Nightwing. I seem to recall having to download a small update for the game the other day.

 

[Sabre]

I was playing this at a very slow pace but I finally beat it tonight. Although I'll keep doing the side missions. Has there been a patch to fix the DLC bug? I'm afraid to download the Catwoman pack. If I lose everything, I'd probably have no desire to do everything again.

From what I remember the glitch was happening to people who didn't have the dlc downloaded.

 

[Haws Bah Gawd]

Finished this tonight. Amazing all the way through. I'm trying to finish a handful of the side missions before putting it down for a while.

Spoiler

Anyone catch the little voicemail from Joker about 5 minutes into the closing credits?

 

[bps21]

That was my favorite part. Everyone stay through the credits.

 

[FLAM]

Yeah. That was great. Has anyone sat through all of the credits? Seriously felt like a half hour of waiting.

Downloaded the Batwoman pack. No corrupt save file. What a relief. Haven't started it yet though. I just finished the Bane side missions and

Spoiler

am disappointed you don't get to fight him at the end

Has anyone got the Batman Beyond outfit? I think I'll buy a NOS can later today for the code.

EDIT: It's a cool skin. But it looks really weird when Batman speaks.

Played for several hours today. Really liked the Hush stuff. I hope the next game has Damian Wayne. And a hallucination featuring Bat-Mite a la Batman RIP.

 

[FLAM]

Remember to visit the Calendar Man in the basement of the courthouse today!

Returning to the Steel Mill after rescuing Vicki Vale can fuck right the fuck off. First I was in the wrong location and didn't realize it thus I kept getting killed by the 3-4 guys with guns when trying to take 'em all out. Now I have a vague idea where I'm supposed to be but promptly got taken out by one of those long range snipers.

*Sigh*

I love this game from top to bottom so I decided to focus on getting 1000/1000 in XBox Achievements....and let me just say, the Predator Riddler challenges in this game could fuck right off. Particularly the Top of the World Extreme one. I haven't come this close to throwing my controller in years.

[Damaramu]

I just started this game today. Holy shit there's a lot to do. Did anyone else just say "fuck it" with a lot of the side quests and do the main quest? I know for one the Riddler stuff is already tedious and I'm just now at Mr. Freeze.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

Wrong again, camel breath.

 

[vivisectvi]

No way. The Riddler stuff is awesome fun.

 

[KingPK]

There is way too fucking much of it though. There's like 500 Riddler trophies to find.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

You don't need to find them but it extends the life of the game.

 

[Damaramu]

Wrong again, camel breath.

Oh I'm sorry. I didn't know finding something tedious was a black and white fact and not your own opinion.

 

[vivisectvi]

If you don't like it, don't do it. But I would hardly call it tedious. Unless using your noggin and peepers to solve visual puzzles and riddles is tedious... Nah!

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

Am I not allowed to quote the great Randy Savage anymore? Lighten up.

 

[Damaramu]

If you don't like it, don't do it. But I would hardly call it tedious. Unless using your noggin and peepers to solve visual puzzles and riddles is tedious... Nah!

I prefer to glide around the city and then beat up criminals. I finished the Augmented AR training and got the grapnel gun. Then I found out you only get a crummy trophy for beating advanced so I said "fuck that" and quit. The one where you have to dive bomb and then fly in through the doorway and down the hall was pissing me off anyway.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

AR training is different. That's just plain frustrating and skippable.

 

[2GOLD]

The end of the Riddler challenges was disappointing though. His last trap just did not live up to what I expected after his other ones. It was devious but a lot easier to solve than I liked for a "boss battle".

 

[Damaramu]

I don't have the Catwoman DLC. I need it to get the complete story, don't I?

 

[vivisectvi]

That would depend on how you define "complete".

 

[Sabre]

No you dont, the catwoman DLC essetially is "what i was doing between near dying and saving batmans ass".

 

[treble]

The Catwoman stuff is really fun and a bit of a change of pace. I would play it.

 

[2GOLD]

That and Catwoman has the dark ending option.

 

[vivisectvi]

The Harley Quinn-related teases have led to this: today's announcement of a "Game of the Year Edition" re-release of Batman: Arkham City. Coming to PS3 and Xbox 360 May 29, the new version contains the "Harley Quinn's Revenge" expansion, along with the previously released Robin, Catwoman, and Nightwing packs and a set of alternate skins.

In addition to all the in-game content (henceforth referred to as "those wonderful toys") the GOTY edition will contain a download of the Batman: Year One animated movie.

Update: You don't have to wait until May, or buy the game again, to get the Harley Quinn DLC. It'll be sold separately starting April 30.

Hopefully the DLC explains whether or not Gotham was saved considering the cure died with the joker.
