My least favorite predator challenge was BY FAR end of the line Extreme.

I just hated having to use shock wave. I ALWAYS screwed that up.

Maybe the data can be uninstalled I would check your HD download files. Iam also at the spot where I have to fight Poison Ivy and I hate that level. Would much rather just get back to some Batman bashing.

I hated that one too, until I found an almost foolproof strategy.

[Show spoiler]Instead of trying to sneak by that first guy that's walking down the stairs at the start, I'd freeze him with a grenade. Then I'd grapple up, takedown the thermal guy, then swoop across the gap. By that time, a goon goes to check on the frozen guy. With the two of them right there, you can hit the shockwave easily. Two medals in about 25 seconds. Then I'd just take people down til I had one left and do the gel explosive on the gun rack.

The new skin is up. I downloaded that and the map pack. $2.99 for 3 maps!? Yet the skin pack is still $4.99, makes no sense.

I LOVE The Batcave, they did so well on it !

Any new trophies?

Also, while I feel the $3 map price is fair, I'm choosing to not support this dlc because I don't want RS getting massive sales and think "The fans have spoken, they clearly want and love map packs!"

I've supported them by buying the Nightwing and Robin packs, but from this point on, won't buy anything other than story dlc. I'd buy the Batman skins if they released story dlc for Batman, otherwise it's too late for me to benefit.

Well, I've finally completed all Riddler' Revenge challenges and campaigns and have obtained 100% completion.

The only two trophies I have left for the platinum trophy are the dates with Calendar Man and Perfect Free Flow Combo. Can anyone confirm all of the moves required to get the last trophy? I believe they are as follows, but can't find any source to confirm:

* attack
* counter
* evade/redirect
* aerial attack
* disarm
* bat swarm
* special combo takedown
* multiple combo takedown
* ground pound takedown
* beat down
* ultra stun
* gadget (I use the batclaw disarm, does a quick fire batarang count?)

So, I count 12 moves that are required. Is anything missing from my list? Thanks in advance.

U can change the date on your console to match the dates needed for Calender Man.

hey guys, I was late getting to this game. Still trying to plat it. Do the Demon Seals counts as riddler secrets. Cause I have all the riddler trophies already but still need 20 or so more things to reach 400.

What about the Catwoman riddler trophies do I have to get those to unlock Riddler?

Thanks

Demon Seals do count. As well as Catwoman's.

You need to fill up all the grids in the Batcomputers Riddler file. It shows you the physical challenges, Tyger camera, seals, etc that you need.

Catwoman trophies do NOT count.

I was able to do all the Riddler challenges without them.

But you must be in freeflow mode, after you land a few punches first. You can't just start off with a batarang, which kind of sucks.

Thanks for the tips; I'll make sure to use the batarang in free flow mode. Is my list otherwise complete?

Regarding Calendar Man, I may change the dates if I manage to complete the Perfect Free Flow Combo before the last date I have to meet him (sometime next September, I think). Until then, I'll just meet him on the dates I need to and not fiddle with the dates on my PS3.

What map are you trying to get Perfect Freeflow on? IMO the best is Survival of the Fittest, on the third section. This will give you a lot of guys to fight, giving you a lot of opportunity to get all the moves without having to rush. If you go back a couple pages I have a post with my approach to the trophy that may help.

Of note is that if you do the "Disarm and Destroy" move (square + triangle I believe), you actually have to do it on an enemy with a weapon. If you do the same move on an unarmed enemy, you will not get credit for the move. Survival of the Fittest I think has two or three armed enemies, so try to do that move ASAP to avoid accidentally disarming them and losing the chance to do the disarm.

It was OK, but it was just a mini cave, this is the Batcave. They have the T. Rex and everything! The giant penny and other costumes are missing from what I've seen so far, but the Batmobile, Batwing and giant Batcomputer are there, which makes me

Meanwhile, I'm addicted to Joker's Carnival. I need that million points. I've only gone up to 7 or 800,000 so far

I just wished they made it more spacious, feels cramped .. but haha what is with that dinosaur lol, i was wondering

[Groo The Perverted]

How do you find the new maps once they are installed? Where exactly are they in the riddler challenges?

Well, I got the Perfect Freeflow 2.0 trophy last night, but I did it on Prison Riot Extreme, on the 1st section. I was trying different map challenges, but settled on this one because it had just enough enemies to get the trophy. Although there is no riot shield on this level, you can still complete an aerial attack on any henchman. It did, however, take me about 2 hours to get this trophy.

So, for Calendar Man, do I wait another ten months or reset the date on my PS3? What are you guys doing? Maybe I'll pop Arkham Asylum in and try to plat that one first.

I was going for the legit way, but when I missed both Halloween and Thanksgiving, I decided I needed to cheat a bit

I popped AC in for the first time in a few weeks to try the Batman Inc suit, and was surprised to see a freight train map which was different, but cool nonetheless. Was that Black Mask on the freight train as well? If so, I gave him a beatdown he'll never forget lol
