If you haven't played it yet, get out there and get yourself a copy. Mark Hamil's voice acting as the Joker is brilliant. I'm probably only halfway done and I'm still having alot of fun with it.

I beat it. The ending is kinda anti-climatic in my opinion, but other than that it was an awesome game.

I rented the Dark Knight last night, and felt that Heath Ledger and Christian Bale just don't compare to Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill.

I love the Challenge maps, and will probably restart the main game soon. My goal is to try and get all the riddles, I finished with like 201/240

You are a man with excellent taste.:DL

Dark Knight was damned impressive though.

I do admit the movie was good. It would of just been better with Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill's voices.

Heath Ledgers laughter was nothing like these:

I'm working on my normal playthrough at the moment. With every intent on going back in for hard. The riddles make the game for me, its really interesting to push your mind to try and solve them.

Mark Hamil as Joker and Kevin as Bats is great. Reminds me of the kickass 90s cartoon. Something I'm really liking about AA is the patient interview tapes scattered around, Zazss in particular, feels like you really get inside his head.

I'm 85% done. Finished the story last night, just have around 4 riddles left to go. At least 3 of them Teeth destroying ones. Then its combat challenges and back through the game on hard.

Of course I'm suffering through work due to staying up till 2am playing AA but thats irrelevant. I'm Batman!...oh damn I'm delusional.

*edit* Challenge mode about half done. All the riddles found and answered.

I finished the game a while back on Normal with all the riddles answered. I'm casually playing through hard whenever I'm in the mood to spread the fear back into the darkness :up:

Next to where the Batmobile is parked in ARKHAM NORTH there is a run down office. Use the explosive gel on the roof to get the Riddlers Map.;)

Everybody likes it. :yep:

I'll get it at some point, and I don't even like beat-m-up games. Seriously, that's saying something. :up:

To be fair though Yahtzee does have a good go at it.

Also there's a couple of free DLC (for consoles, not sure about PC) challenges out.
