Re: Batman: Arkham City Thread
Finished the game last weekend and honestly think that if you pair this one with the first, you pretty much have the closest thing you can get to an all inclusive Batman story. My only gripe

Wow, Dick is kind of a...dick. Moreso as it clearly happened after Barbara had been crippled for some time.

Overall a fun experience, and I only completed the storyline aspect, still got a lot of other stuff to take care of in spare time.

Re: Batman: Arkham City Thread
I've got a question about getting all the "Trophies & Side Quests". I'm nearing the end of the game (getting ready to confront Joker before he takes Talia). Does it matter doing them before or after the final? I'm showing one or two side missions not complete and still have quite few trophies to get.

You can go back and do them after the main campaign is over. Its just like the first game.

Re: Batman: Arkham City Thread
Well I finished the storyline today and once again hats off to those who made it. I took a chance with Batman:AA not really caring for those types of games and had a good time with it. It exceeded my expectations and got hooked. This one expanded that in many places and was epic compared to the first. Much like the first Transformers movie compared to the latest. One has to wonder what's next. Without giving anything away I can say it had a somewhat "sad" ending. How anyone cannot have this game in the Top 3 of 2011 is beyond me. Thanks to those for the tips of where I was stuck.

Just a question on the DLC offers. I went ahead and picked up the Robin pack. How is the Nightwing pack compared to Robin?

Re: Batman: Arkham City Thread
The Nightwing and Robin packs are quite similar. Robin fights like Batman, while Nightwing is closer to Catwoman. He's faster than Robin and Batman, doesn't have the ability to glide, but does have a pounce move.
And while Robin's gadgets are mostly a rehash of Batman's, Nightwing has a more unique set. If you enjoy the combat and predator missions, and want more of them, then pick up the DLC. Nightwing takes a little getting used to, but he's fun to play with once you do.

Re: Batman: Arkham City Thread
I got this game on sale from Steam so the only thing that interests me is Harley Quinn's Revenge.
That said, though not a deal breaker, I really wish they'd gotten Arleen Sorkin back as Harley. I usually like Tara Strong but didn't care for her Harley Quinn one bit.

Any body know if there will be a DLC combo pack? for those who already own the game and the catwoman DLC.

Re: Batman: Arkham City Thread
My concern is whether or not the GOTY edition will make use of our vanilla edition save. Arkham Aslyum didn't do that which was really really frustrating. Had no desire to start all over and re-unlock everything.

I was waiting this title out for the GOTY edition, so I'll definitely be picking that up. That cover is awful though.

Basically what we're getting this time is the same game disc with an added GOTY/DLC disc and a brand new quote-tastic cover.

Classy.
On the trailer they put up a quote of "Game Of The Year!" - Metacritic. I had to go check and sure enough, the PS3 version of Batman : AC beat out the 360 version of Skyrim by a few decimal points. I have no idea how that happened. I never saw one review site that gave AC their GOTY award. I demand a recount!

Re: Batman: Arkham City Thread
It will work with your current save. Arkham Asylum had to be recoded in a number of ways due to the addition of 3D in its GOTY edition, so it was essentially a completely different game (this is why it also had a separate achievement/trophy list). That's not the case here.

Re: Batman: Arkham City Thread
Since this is now near the front again, another question: I beat the game's story mode, now I want to do the side missions. However, it appears I cannot go forward as Batman until I complete a Catwoman mission. I have her at the museum and cannot figure out how to get her across the water. Any suggestions?
