OK just began this yesterday. Sad to say, but with limited time before I go back to base to train, Zelda SS had to be shelved and not 100%d. Now I have to rush this ... hopefully the story isn't too long, yet is enjoyable, because I won't be able to riddler SQ much sadly.

Just began the game, got the batsuit, loving how big AC is. Story seems good although going along fast, too fast to understand. There's a lot of good villains already though, and hard mode is truly hard! Me likes!

really enjoying the gameplay and all this mumbo jumbo about protocol 10. Just hoping it's not steroid joker all over again, because the first game was amazing sans ending/bosses.

Great game, have fun! I'm actually unsure how long a straight playthrough would take, since I was sidequesting pretty heavily while playing it.

The story is incredibly short, you should have no trouble beating it by tomorrow or so.

I am playing through right now as well!

Also totally sidequesting too!

Do any of you guys know if the Riddler puzzles... is there a way to know which area of each section each riddle corresponds to? Since each "area" is broken up into a few "sections" I mean?

Once you get the ability to interrogate thugs icons will appear on the map indicating the location of trophies, riddles, and breakables. There's no way to tell in advance where a specific riddle is more specifically than which overall area (like "Amusement Mile," etc) it's in, though.

hm, that's lame.
I mean, when you enter a section in between areas, it still tells you a riddle that is available in that section (like Subway Tunnels vs Subway Corridor A or whatever)... so clearly it has that knowledge.

The interrogations then make you less likely ot try to figure out the riddles and just hunt down the locations... so you never know what riddle youre going after. Unlike in AC, you could pick a riddle and scope/figure it out with much more ease since you know a general area of where to look.

perhaps I should just replay on normal? I've died twice early on in hard, it's very difficult. I mean the basics are the same, know when to counter when seeing the meter. It's just I can't last too long because health regenerates poorly. Anyone got some advice? Is hard mode meant for a pro?

cuz yea debating it now

not too enjoyable when i can't fight anyone since after one fight i'm like 60% cut down

scratch that, normal mode it is. I have 4 days until I go back to base, and I prefer to have balanced fun, and not frustration.

Good call. New Game Plus is already set on Hard mode, and you have to complete that to get 100%. No reason to play on Hard your first time through. Lack of the counter warnings make it less fun honestly.

Yeah normal is just way too easy in this game. Hard is challenging but not impossible. Make sure that you're doing the side missions and more specifically the AR missions as soon as possible!

I can't unfortunately I have to plow through the game so I upgraded to level 4 of each armor. I die a lot, but the story is good.

The reward for the first batch of AR missions is a way to increase travel speed across the city. That's why it's emphasized.

Yeah completing the first five AR missions is really quick and simple and it gives you a fantastic upgrade.

It's just his normal suit with a silly mask, really not that special compared to all the other skins you can get for him. They just gave us a free Batman Inc. skin too. Be happy. And the ability to use any costume we want in the regular game.

I think the ending is less shocking if you're a comic book fan.

AA was my fave game of 2009. I was beyond excited for this. It was fun, but no AA. Skyward Sword my preferred of the two I just beat. K, there goes my break. I'm out
