I might beat it soon. I'm not starting at Disney until October 5th, hahaha. I'm SORT of unemployed.

I don't wanna be in no stinky contest, but I'm 49% through the game.

Found 115 of the trophies/puzzles.
12 upgrades.

About 24 character bios.

I like how the Joker learns your secrets as the game goes on.

He gives the thugs collar so that even your stealth kills are noticed.
Then he has his goons put bombs on the gargoyles so you can't really use them and need to get creative.

i also figured out (and quite like) that most of the Riddler's puzzles actually refer to specific characters so I just started searching rooms for specific character traits... the Tea Set for Mad Hatter, the DA posters for Two-Face... etc

Does the percent completion include all the Riddler trophies? Because I've been collecting those as I seem them and it still says about 25% or so? I think I've gotten way far into the actual plot though.

So, it appears as though BaB is currently winning.

Could we get an update from Combine?

And that is that.

Awesome game through and through.

Wow i love this game. Fav moment so far is when I glide kicked my way into a bunch of thugs, beat the crap out of them and picked a guy up and threw him into another to take out the last two guys. Flawless!

Just downloaded the Joker DLC.

And for the most part, it looks like the Batman Challenge mode with the Joker.
There are of course some differences.

-The Joker doesn't seem to possess a batclaw so that is out of combat.
-He doesn't have a batarang, but a single bullet gun. Which is an instant kill.
-He fights cops and Arkham guards which is cool. The first level, one of the people you fight is Gordon.
-He throws poison/laughing gas instead of the cape stun Batman does.
-He has trippy glasses.

Now to see if different in Predator mode since assume has no batgrapple either.

I didn't know you could hold RT/R2 when glide kicking to see what the guard sees. Gonna check that out.

Yeah, and you can move the camera when you're talking to people, a la MGS. so awesome. I get the feeling there's a lot of little things.

Wonder who mentioned that.

Yeah something found out in the demo, you can do it with other weapons as well, think you can follow the batarang to its target and what have you.

Watched Dyne play this tonight, and the game looks pretty awesome.

Nice job on Poison Ivy, CGI team. Nice job.
