Batman: Arkham City thread

I didn’t bother getting the Robin/Nightwing packs, since I heard they were just challenge related.
Pretty hyped for the Harley Quinn stuff though. I couldn’t get enough of Arkham City’s story mode, and i’m glad to see more story related DLC coming.

Anyone know if it’s coming out on PC? Just curious as the PC release of Arkham City was a month or so after the consoles, so it maybe the same case for the DLC.

Apparently they will be releasing it for PC. However, there is no official date set

Got dat Harley’s revenge…

  • intersting that it’s hard to tell visually which of her stupid thugs are armored or not. Maybe I just have to get used to.
  • It’s fun but hella short. But that’s what a DLC is soooooooo.

This has been THE INVINCIBLE SWORDSMAN saying:

The talking by the guards/thugs is awesome as usual.

So is it cop worthy?

  • :bluu:

has the save file compatibility been confirmed yet?

Yeah swords whats ya view on it… might cop by the end of the week.

It’s only 5 bucks. To me that ain’t shit to be able to run through Arkham as Robin. Cool thing is using his moves to get through shit.

[spoiler=]-Like before if you went up against the automatic turrets, you’d have to use Batman’s REC Gadget. With Robin you use his stick-shield to reflect the bullets so he can get by. But the stick-shield has an HP of its own, so if it takes too many shots, it’ll break and you have to wait for it recharge.
-You can also get by other places with the stick-shield like spots where there are the broken pipes and Batman would throw the freeze blasts to put a cap on them.
-Robin’s Snap Flash is fucking awesome. You can sneak up on a guy with a gun and tag him with it (Solid Snake mine style) and then detonate it at your leisure while the guy is walking around. You can also use it on cranes. It doesn’t seem to be like the explosive gel in that you can place it on any smooth/wide surface. But you might be able to tag other stuff too. I’ll do some running around Arkham later.

  • After you beat Harley’s Revenge, if you go through again, you can choose which outfit to use with Robin (Red Robin for me)
  • Seriously, the talking by the thugs is all new and fucking hilarious. Too many awesome conversations to get into.
  • Oh. And you get to be Batman too obviously.
  • You can run through Harley’s Revenge in about an hour and a half.

I’m gonna go through it again to see where I can go as Robin.

Short DLC, but still worth it for me. I really liked the level design. The interiors had an Arkham Asylum feel to it, but the predator part had a semi-open design that was really cool. Actually, I think it was the first of its kind?

If you don’t get the DLC, at least watch a playthrough on youtube. It’s a good preview of what the next game could do for multi-character integration. Hope they have a similar pace in the next game. The last 20 minutes and ‘new mission type’ were too good!

5 bucks… oh shyt nevermind im on it regardless.

Really, it’s only $5. My brother is considering buying the GOTY Edition. I actually pick this up the other night and played as “The Boy Wonder”. Can’t wait to do it in story mode.

10 on ps3 (just check) i guess its 5 for for the plus members but still hell i dont mind for that…better than buyin outfits for my character to look cool in.

Yo it’s only 5 bucks? WTF? Copped.

Its 800 msp on Live.

:mad: the fuck!

:lame: that’s $10!!!

oh hell no!:tdown:

I’ll wait till they fix the price:bluu:

10 bucks on XBL Gold.

Friend of mine said he was done with it in under 90 minutes. I’ll probably wait the 3 months to grab it on sale.

Yeah, I played and beat it. While I enjoyed it, it did feel a little on the short side (90 minutes is right about my playthrough time). There was a good bit of work put into the design of the stage and threw in a good bit of everything. Oh and one little thing

Reneged Egg

Spoiler

The initial easter egg for Harley being pregnant (positive pregnancy test) was still in the Joker’s head office. However, next to the crib in the office were several pregnancy tests on the floor that read negative. In the carriage, the pregnancy test box is on the back side and states “WARNING: Test may show false positives”.

No wonder she is pissed . . . .

Prequel time…

There go my hopes of a Batman Beyond sequel. Although I still say all the hints point to it.
