Batman: Arkham Asylum

[TheWatcher]

dang alot of pages now,where is ra's and freeze?

i beat it earlier!

 

[Matt Murdock]

Ra's is in the Morgue. Freeze is in the electrified chamber where you beat Harley. They're really easy to spot.

Okay can someone help me out on Silent Knight (Extreme) map?

One of the medals comes from exploding 3 different walls and taking down 3 different thugs, so i put 1 gel bomb on top of the building with windows, then the wall where 1 thug is always standing... then on the other side i got 2 floors to explode, now whenever i explode one of them, the thug never gets a takedown he just gets stunned for a moment, what am i doing wrong? Am i too trigger early or what?! :P

Here's what I did:

You start off in a small chamber on the lowest level of the room. You're on the left side. Run to the right, into the room across the hallway. Using detective vision, you should be able to see a portion of the ceiling of this room that can be blown away. Climb onto the desk and spray the gel. One, or sometimes two, guards walk over this at the early parts of the level. Leave the room and head left, climb up the ladder. Use the grapple to climb on top of the room with the destructible ceiling. Spray the gel on it. Use the zip-line to head right over the rooms and land in the small section behind the wall where the guy is always standing. Spray the gel. Use the grapple to pull yourself up into the passage way that's just above the room. Crawl through it to the other side. This gives you a good vantage point of where the first and second guards will be. There's no need to really watch the third; he never moves.

Once the other two guards are standing over and under the crumbling floor and ceiling, respectively, bombs away.

Finally beat the game last night. I'm sad that it's over, but I'm still looking forward to the next one. I still got to go back and do some more of the combat challenges.

This is one of the first games that my wife actually came in the room to watch me play. Great story, although the end was a little much.

 

[Charlie No-One]

Just beat the story. I had the Scarecrow ending which was cool. I didn't have a problem with the ending except that it should have been the hardest Boss battle and it wasn't.

I played the game on hard, and had a harder time beating Poison Ivy and the Thugs + 2 Titans (pre-Titan Joker) battle.

[Charlie No-One]

Yeah Ivy was rough.


I have two Riddles left and I have no idea where they could be. I have all the secret maps and still don't know.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

Where are they?

 

[uchiha_itachi]

Im going through my second run now. gonna concertrate more on riddles this time. some of them just confuse me though...

 

[Dark_Lord]

I finaly finished Shock and Awe (Extreme) and the only one I have left is the Rumble in the Jungle (Extreme) (or however it's called). I also started the game on hard, because I wanted to take a break from the challenge maps. It's cool that there's no indicator telling you when to counter while in combat.

 

[BlackLantern]

I got my 40 hit achievement....yay

 

[darknight7]

I can't say I will exactly remember where all the Riddles are off the top of my head, but I did find all of the them.

I understand most people are trying to do it on their own without assistance.

But if you get fed up, you can just ask on here

[uchiha_itachi]

Its very clever, normally with stuff like that i would just use the guide. but just cos its the riddler i want to do it myself lol

 

[Rukus]

The toughest part on hard for me was the big brute that joker sends down in the elevator. Dealing with the big guy plus all the thugs in that tight area was pretty tough at first. I still got to get the scarecrow ending maybe on my next playthrough.

 

[Iglius]

So what's the verdict...is this game worth a buy?

 

[CELTICPRED]

Now that I've played it, no.

Rent definitely.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

Definitely a rental. If you really like it, then purchase it. It's pretty short and there's no replay value in the story mode. Half of the Challenge mode maps are recycled. They just have different medal objectives and the gargoyles are booby trapped.

It'll be in the running for Game of the Year, if you consider yourself any kind of Batman fan, itll be worth adding to your collection. The single player is great and you wont be breezing through all of the challenge maps. They are going to be adding some DLC so the game is only going to have more added to it. Its one of the best games you'll play this year, its one that needs to be in ones collection.

Lucky you.

GOTY? That's an overstatement.

I think the replayability of the story mode depends entirely on just how much you enjoyed the actual story. I've never been someone who's interested in trophies or completion percentages, but I figured I'd play through this one again to get the "Party Pooper" achievement. The story itself doesn't take too long, and playing through on hard is actually pretty fun. With the removal of the counter indicator, there's a different gaming mechanic. Plus, the Scarecrow levels were, for me, worth an entire replay.

 

[ChelseaGrin26]

I think it will mainly boil down to comic fans versus non fans. If you have an affinity for the character it will be worth a buy IMO.

 

[Cunning Stunts]

I'm gonna be quite honest, the only game that has ever scared me was Resident Evil 1.

But Scarecrow's levels in Arkham Asylum almost added AA to that list. They were creepily awesome.
