I hate arbitrary restrictions on things, if you don't want to use it then don't use it.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

Just finished story mode on Tuesday. I'm now going back to find all of the Riddler trophies and such. I'm 75% complete. This is only the 2nd game I've ever finished (SW: KOTOR was the first). Absolutely loved it and can't wait for the next one.

Spoiler

I had so much trouble getting past the Poison Ivy battle and the first part of the Joker battle. I wanted to throw my controller through the TV at times. But I felt such a sense of relief and accomplishment when I finally passed them, that it was all worth it!

I couldn't believe that after I thought I beat Ivy the first time, I had to go and do it again, but with baddies coming at me as well...

I had a hard time there too. You won't get 100% unless you complete all the challenges. I can't beat a lot of the combat ones, so I won't be getting 100%.

Yeah I couldn't beat them either,especially Ivy, it was so frustrating that I actually took a 2 month break from it.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

Chefdad's late to the party as always but I just picked this one up over the weekend and put about 4 hours in last night. Incredible so far, but I think I'm going to start from the begining again so I can actually enjoy it now that I know a little bit about what I'm doing.

Edit; BTW I went through this entire thread! lol

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

IMO, Batman AA was the second best game of the year last year. Only trailing Uncharted 2.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

That's definitely the census when going through the thread. Glad I can finally get into it.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

Just finished. Awesome Game. Finished at 80%. Don't know whether I will take it back or not as I had a lot of fun.

Spoiler

I unlocked a really cool looking Armored Batman Suit that only seems playable during challenge mode.

It's one of the few games that I haven't traded in. Most of the games I keep are 2 player games that I can play with friends when they come over. Game like Gears of War 1 & 2, Halo 3 & ODST, Resistance ect.

I rarely keep one-player games and sport's titles however, this is one of the game that I kept because I will probably want to play through it again in the future. The only other one player games I've kept (that I can think of) are UC2 and Heavy Rain.

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

I really like this game, although I'm stuck at the moment. Not sure why I'm struggling, but I am having the toughest time getting past Harley's goons.

I agree J. With NCAA just around the corner though I'm debating trading it in towards a purchase. Race Pro and possibly Way of the Samurai 3 are also in the mix. I like all 3(WOTS3 grows on you).

Re: Batman: Arkham Asylum

Well, I decided to start over. Only 4 hours in or so. But I got to

Spoiler

Some place where the riddle was there are many sides to a puzzle but some aren't seen. (Or something like that)

And as I was looking around I saw a question mark on a window. I couldn't for the life of me figure it out, easily spent 35 minutes looking around it.

Then my son (7) comes in to watch and notices the dot to align to the question mark on a wall and says duh right there. So I lined em up and snapped the shot or whatever and completed the riddle. But I gotta say even though I looked like an idiot to my son that was an awsome puzzle. Looking forward to more of those!! This game is great!

I'm not going to lie....

Spoiler

I had to cheat on some of those. But, only after spending a long, long time looking for them.

I figure I'm going to go through the first time and try and get as many as I can. After the first play through I'm gonna do like Dane Cook once said and CHEAT!!!

I'm actually finding the guide to be useful in a few spots.
