Hey guys, my computer just crashed and I lost my PC save file.

I'm very early in the game, I just reconstructed the crime scene where It involves penguin and black mask, alternatively, I just disarmed the first of 3 bombs from some guy named Havoc or something.

If anyone has a save file from around that time id really appreciate it. Thanks.

Somebody mentioned earlier that the city felt dead and uninhabited, which it does, but then I remembered it's supposed to be set on Christmas Eve so I just chalked it up to everyone being inside with their families.
There's that, plus there's a winter storm warning with a mandatory shelter-in-place in effect. You'll hear a police warning over the city's PA every now any then explaining it.

On that note if someone has a save after beating Deathstroke (or even a bit later, before the next boss anyway. Best would be after disarming the 4 anarky bombs.) I'd like a copy, goddamn save corruption.

Is an NG+ file good? My current NG+ run is right before Lacy Towers and I've got 1 Anarky bomb disabled.

Still don't have all the towers freed though.

Does the multiplayer in this game actually, like, exist? I spent seven minutes sitting alone in an empty lobby (on a friday evening, mind you) before giving up.

Matchmaking is weird and broken. Sometimes the game puts you in a lobby with other people and sometimes it just dumps you in a room on your own. On 360 I end up spamming the join lobby option until I find one at least half full, then invite other people from my recently played list to fill it up.

Near the end of the game when Batman thinks to himself "I need to use my glue grenade to make a raft" in his super serious Batman voice I burst out laughing over how silly it was.

I still like how meticulous Batman is in making the bat shapes for his explosive gel, even though he's going to blow it up a second later. Also that blowing it up right in front of his face doesn't hurt him.

So I just completed every challenge and my game progress is at.... 99%

I've completed the game and new game+, done every mission and side mission, solved all crime scenes, completed every case file, done every challenge.... what am I missing? I looked in the character trophy page and four trophies are missing so I assume it is something to do with that, any ideas? Do I have to complete I Am The Night as well? I assumed that was independent of a 100% runthrough of the game?

I haven't played through the challenges as Deathstroke yet, that doesn't have anything to do with it, does it?

The question now is are there more treatments in that style of DC stuff? I keep hearing the Superman stuff from a couple years ago was excellent but... Superman.

I haven't done I Am The Night yet, but I have gotten all Anarky tags and Pinkney plaques. I just looked up to see which ones I'm missing, and it seems there is a trophy I get for completing I Am The Night, and one for playing multiplayer (what the hell, I don't WANT to play multiplayer, why is this attached to the single player progression?) but I'm also missing the one you get for completing all challenges. I haven't done the Deathstroke challenges so I guess maybe those count as well? I don't think I have the "Judas Deathstroke" trophy either, which I guess is attached to those Deathstroke challenges?

Are you loving kidding me.

Bane. Again. Exact same fight. No changes anywhere. And look, they threw in an "I'll break you!" moment. Just like every single loving appearance Bane's ever had anywhere. So original.

There are still assassins I haven't fought but no no, let's recycle the one that absolutely no one would ever enjoy. And let's bring in even more minions for this incarnation of it! That'll surely make it much more fun for the players, right guys? Guys? Hello? Anyone? No? No, it's frustrating and loving stupid, just like most of the bad decisions in Origins? Oh.


Why is it so hard for anyone making an Arkham game to have a good boss fight? Firefly was a joke. A painful one, at that. "Make them try to rapidly tap the triggers on a 360 controller for 10 minutes, that's a good fight mechanic!"

E: Hahahaha. It's hard to take anyone seriously when they mutate into Abobo from the Double Dragon movie.

I just watched it today, in fact (while playing AO,) and enjoyed it.

And the cartoon adaptation of the Death of Superman/The Four Supermen is actually pretty good, considering the amount of story that had to get cut and condenses, all things considered.

But it is pretty much 100% Superman...a tiny bit of other guys, but I don't think there's even a whisper of Batman.

Edit: Oh, looks like it's not on Netflix, though.

I've finished the main storyline, and still have two blank "Most Wanted." I know one is Deadpool, don't know who the other is...is it just like City where I just have to fly around and hope something triggers to start them?

Your 1% is almost certainly just completing I am the Night mode- the other trophies won't count, although I think the deathstroke missions(at least the predator ones) are a blast, and worth doing.

Uh, the voice acting in Under the Red Hood is by and large amazing and DiMaggio sells most of his lines very well (For the rather short time he's in the movie). I mean, in general it's very hard to not find a good voice with the Joker, he's a character that can be interpreted in a multitude of ways so just about any voice works really except Brent Spiner's.

James Woods is so so so loving good in that movie, everyone needs to watch it just for his character.
