I think the best thing about this game is that it naturally expands from the original. They haven't changed the winning formula too much, just expanded on it.
On another note, for such a simple thing, I love the smoke bombs. Awesome to just drop one, swoop down, take someone out and disappear again. |

Yeah, it definitely works. I am getting a little bit of "been there done that", but it's not a huge deal because the gameplay is pretty much perfect, and the story is awesome. There are very few games that make me want to do everything from collecting trophies to all the side missions, and this just makes me want to keep playing and playing.
If and when they do a third, I think they need to go all-out and do Gotham as a whole. Might need to wait for next gen, but it'd be more than worth it. |

Step 3 should be going GTA-style with Batmobile/Batcycle. Would be fucking immense.

I finally have all the Riddler trophies.
Now for the true bane of my existence. Those shitty combat challenges. |

Just beat the campaign mode. Was shorter and easier than I expected, although Asylum was pretty short as well.
Love this game |

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and DC Entertainment today announced that Batman: Arkham City has shipped more than 4.6 million units worldwide since its release last week. That's more than double what its predecessor, Batman: Arkham Asylum, sold in the same time period after its release in 2009.
Right now, Warner Bros. says Arkham City is the highest reviewed PS3 and Xbox 360 game of 2011 on Metacritic with average scores of 96 and 95, respectively. "The true test for any game is what the players think and we have been thrilled by their reaction to Batman: Arkham City ,” said Sefton Hill, game director at Rocksteady Studios. “The team at Rocksteady put every ounce of effort into making the best Batman experience we possibly could, so we are overwhelmed by the incredible feedback from the community.” The president of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, Martin Tremblay, says the success of Arkham City further establishes the Batman brand as a marquee franchise for the growing business, which is looking to build on that success in 2012. Warner Bros. has already made an agreement with CD Projekt to bring The Witcher 2 to the Xbox 360 and an anonymous source recently told the L.A. Times that the company is working on a new Lego Batman game, a Hobbit game to coincide with the feature film's release, and another game featuring an unidentified DC Comics superhero. The PC version of Arkham City will be available on November 15. http://gamrfeed.vgchartz.com/story/8...op-46-million/ |

On a side note, the pronunciation of Ra's Al Ghul. The only place I'd heard it spoken before was Batman Begins.
Did the movie get it wrong? Or was there a reason for it being different? |

That's how they were saying it in the cartoon Batman: The Animated Series.
Same goes with is it League of Assassins or League of Shadows? |

Finished the game last night. The story mode was short and pretty easy, but I wasn't surprised since AA was the same.
Just gonna tie up a few loose ends with the Riddler trophies and give it a rest. Don't want to over play it and end up getting bored of it. |

Geez. Some of the Combat Challenge scores are just flat out insane. I'll probably never get a third medal on any of them.

For real. I was reading through the Batman boards on IGN and saw where one guy was whining about how he almost got 1,000,000 in the Joker's Carnival. How's that possible!?

Easy. Have no social life what so ever. Don't get a job. And spend every moment on it.
Smells like a winning formula. |

All you have to do is keep spamming the cape, and then do the beat down move. Obviously if someone runs up to you, just reverse their attack. Whenever you get a combo of 5, do the takedown where you disarm one of the bad guys. Also, keep an eye out for the guys that throw boxes or whatever, if you see one, toss a batarang their way. Once you get into the flow of it, it's easy. |

Warner Bros and Rocksteady Studios haven't officially confirmed nor have a solution to a potentially nasty problem affecting Xbox 360 versions where the game automatically erases or corrupts save files.
It appears the problem only starts to occur around the 6 hour played or 80% completion mark and could be related to the Catwoman DLC as the source of the problem. http://www.screwattack.com/news/are-...ing-themselves |

Anyone play the extra hard mode yet? I beat the regular mode and I've collected most of the Riddler trophies and I'm getting a bit bored just going around beating up thugs. Is it a true challenge?
