Re: Batman: Arkham City Thread
So from everything I'm reading, it almost sounds like it's better to leave the Catwoman stuff undownloaded and play the game as it is on the disc?

FWIW, some of Batman's upgrades mention that they apply to all playable characters, so Catwoman and Robin should benefit.

Re: Batman: Arkham City Thread
but aren't there some areas that only Catwoman can get to, specifically some Riddler trophies that only she can penetrate and get? do you just play the campaign areas with Batman still or does it just skip it or something?

Yeah I've used detective mode way less in this game too. The main times I use it are just to check how many enemies are in an area or if a section requires it. Big improvement in that aspect of the game if you ask me.

Detective Mode is essential to getting high scores on the most extreme combat challenges. The easy distinction between unarmed foes, foes with armor, foes with guns, and other special characters removes a lot of frustration when you no longer break a combo by accidentally punching an armored guy.

ok...the challenge maps are really fun...especially the predator ones...
My biggest problem with this game though is the 440 joker riddles...I don't have a problem with them alone..my problem is they are tied into the fun riddle hostage missions. I really want to play all of them, but fuck if I don't want to find 440 riddles....overkill by a LOT...there is only so many things I can scan, buttons I can push, or switches I can land on before I want to pull what little hair I have left out...

Finished it yesterday. Really didn't have much time to play until Saturday.
A lot of thoughts on game, ending, hidden stuff, and then inevitable third game:

285 riddles down....I just noticed though that you only need 400 of the 440 to finish the hostage missions. Catwoman's riddles count toward your 400...so you only need to grab (I can't believe I am saying ONLY here) 90% of the riddles....
At least you don't need a guide for these...
