Tip if you got the PS3 Batman.

[quote name='ThirstyFly']Dunno if this has been mentioned or not (since this thread is already so long...) but did anyone else notice that if you have the PS3 version in the system, and go over to the video section on the XMB, there's a bunch of Batman videos listed there including some making of videos and trailers?
First time I ever saw a game add videos to the XMB like that instead of sticking them in an in-game menu.[/QUOTE]
 
Goddamn you people with Batman. Not only do the UK get it 3 days later, Argos fucked up my offer so I don't get it until 10th September. ¬_¬

Yeah but at least you can wake up on a Sunday morning and have a quick wank over the Hollyoaks omnibus, then grab a bacon sarnie.

There are some things I really miss about the UK, but admittedly waiting for games to get released isn't one of them.

My Batman order has been delivered :bouncy:
 
I played the Batman demo a couple nights ago. I liked it more than I thought I would as I don't typically like either beat'em ups or stealth games. Not enough to run out and buy it, but I'll probably get it off Goozex down the road.
 
Amazon just shipped Batman to me now. Probably won't receive it until early next week, but I might get lucky and get it by Friday.
 
A $300 Elite doesn't sound like a bad investment.

I can wait a bit, though. See if the stars align as I intend them to such that I can drop $300 on one.
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']some of these items in Shadow Complex really suck... a lot of the blue crates suck donkey dick. :|[/QUOTE]


Those items are the hardest to get (at least for me anyways)

[quote name='Flak']The Bane fight is incredibly epic. How far is everyone?[/QUOTE]


My copy is stuck somewhere in NJ
poor game
 
I couldn't resist the TRU $30 gift card, so I bought Batman, even though I shouldn't have spent any more money.. oh well. Going to use the GC for dissidia. I figure I should buy it, since I've been playing and loving it since saturday..

Also: RezHD is a totally different experience with a huge HDTV and surround sound. Shit.
 
Is there a counter in Arkham Asylum where Batman is looking one, the villain comes up behind him, and Batman (without looking) punches him back. I'm not sure how to describe it other than that, but those who watched the Animated Series should know what I'm describing.
 
Yeah I think there's a counter like that. I don't remember if it's exactly the one you're talking about, but there are one or two I think that start off with an elbow to the gut.
 
Who cares about the second Layton game? The fourth game includes the RPG they were going to make for phones for free and it's supposed to be 100 hours long.
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']Oh come on. Bane not in a Batman game? Are you kidding? It's probably got every villain under the sun... I mean, Zsasz or whatever was in the demo. :whistle2:s[/QUOTE]

Nah. That's pretty fucked up. I hate spoilers.
 
Just finished for the night, played for a couple of hours I guess, just
rescued the 3 doctors and found Gordon, I guess the scarecrow stuff is about to start
. Game is awesome thus far.

It says on the title screen that free DLC is coming, anyone know what it is ?

BTW the little Amazon comic is ok, gives you a bit of backstory about what led Batman to capturing the Joker, nothing particualrly startling though.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']Does it mention the reason for the rampant steroid abuse in Gotham?[/QUOTE]
You mean the fact that the designs are based on Jim Lee's art?

A free theme went up on the Marketplace today. Hopefully that isn't it.
 
Never mind, I found it.

It's a little ashcan sized comic behind the game's manual.
Now I can't sell it since it looks so cute being all mini sized. ;)

You mean the same one from the 1989 Keaton Batman?

I haven't seen that specific move, but there is a similar move where
a thug will try to kick Bats from behind, Bats will grab the leg without looking then elbow/punch the thug behind him
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']I'm with Frisky in saying that the steroid use in Batman: AA is ridiculous and a large reason why I'm slightly turned off by the game's design choices.[/QUOTE]

Agreed, the lack of realism in Batman is really off putting :lol:

I'm kidding but does it really bother people, I'm surprised they actually bothered to explain what all the Jokers goons were doing in Arkham.
 
Played for 3-4 hours last night, really like Batman. A little deeper than I thought gameplay wise.

I LOVE Jokers's quips, and fighting as him is so cool. Love his gentleman-like stance and fighting poses. His "batarang" equivalent is funny too.
