Yes, that's what I meant.

Of course, now that I really think about it: I'm guessing Sony will never actually implement that. Who will want to sit through installing an entire Blu-Ray?

I love the "you failed" animations from various character. They're creepy cool.

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

My last riddle is to destroy 20 Joker teeth in the building that the Library and the Doctor's office is in (I forget the name of it). I'll be damned if there are any teeth left in there after searching twice. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

I popped the game in last night, and intended to just play an hour or two. I ended up having to force myself to stop after the Bane fight. The game is awesome. I can't wait to continue playing.

Normally i'm not one to search for every hidden secret in a game, but I'm determined to find as many of the Riddles as I can.

The Arkham Mansion? Make sure to search any areas that are located on the balconies. I found one chattering away in the deep recesses of a big file system.

Have you played the Joker maps? Those are quite cool in their own right, although there's only one variation between characters.

I haven't went through with it because I don't want it to end! I'm just running around trying to find secrets for a while. Sure, I can't do that after the main story is over, but I don't want it to be "officially" over just yet.

No. I just played one challenge map. Wait, are you talking about the PS3 Joker maps?


..and oh, how BADASS is it when you beat up and bunch of goons and Batman stands up and fixes his gloves in the "I just kick me some major ass" kinda way. The 1st time I saw that I was day-umn!!.

Dude, I totally get where you're comin' from. I 'wasted' a good chunk of the day on Saturday playing this game.

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

Thanks for all the good reviews. Picked this game up Friday and played it all weekend. Love it. If I had a complaint, I wish that Detective Mode was actually a little more of puzzle solving, similar to the original Condemned, than just basically following a trail.

I know how you feel, before I beat it today. I kept hanging out and looking for stuff before going ahead and ending the game. It is cool though that you can go back and explore after the game is over.

I wish that they would release some DLC in the form of full blown levels.

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

Just finished all of the Predator Challenge maps with Gold. Not to hard. Now I guess I will try my hand at the combat challenge maps. I am not going to like this one bit. At least with the Predator maps, if you mess up you can still beat it. One mistake in combat can cost you your multiplier.

Re: Batman - Arkham Asylum

So I'm missing 2 teeth in Arkham Island West. I swear I've searched every nook and cranny and rooftop and still nothing. Does anyone remember where the last two are?

I've gone through every other section of the island and have all the riddles solved except this and a handful in the penitentiary where I'm supposed to go for "The Party".

Related to that, God I suck at combat in this game. I'm just a button-masher apparently. Closest I got was 4 or 5 dudes left. Found out the long way that countering doesn't hurt the guys enough to knock them out.

Did you finish the game?

Spoiler:
I'm assuming you mean the acheivement for being a Party Pooper? It's beating up all the dudes that were clapping for you at Joker's party for you. Like a jerk!


Unless you're talking about something else, in which case, just ignore me.
