Bought it today. Going to start it tomorrow morning. Looking forward to it!

Eidos knocked it out of the park with this one.
Now I want a sequel!

I can't believe I haven't got this game yet!

I'm really enjoying this game so far. I'm not too far into it but it's awesome, I just love how it really makes you feel like Batman. That morgue scene was indeed creepy but so cool, loved the sound in that part. Also, Mark Hamill does such an amazing job as Joker, it's hard to believe it's actually him doing the voice.

Hamill did a great job--he has not lost the voice one bit since the Batman animated series days. He was also the Hobgoblin in the Spider-man series from the mid 90's. The two voices are almost identical.

I just beat the game today. I'm very eager for down-loadable content.

I am waiting until after the hit of ODST and Beatles: Rockband before nabbing this but reading the reviews and the raving its getting harder to resist.

Doesn't LFD 2 come out this month also?

This is going to be an expensive next few months with games. I'm glad that I don't have to much on order statue wise.

Have been binging on the game so much since Friday, love it

have enjoyed cracking as many of the Riddlers puzzles as possible too.

I'm a little more than half way through with the puzzles. I'm clearing section by section. Just did intensive treatment/sewers, underground etc.

After you beat it, can you keep playing to complete the Riddler challenges, or should I be doing that before the final boss?

As far as I know all Riddler challenges can be gotten after you complete the game (which is what I'm doing). You have access to all areas of the Asylum.

I find it a little more fun this way Personally. Some of the challenges are very frustrating--don't want that cutting into your game play, possible ruining the experience.

Edit:

After you complete the game and continue your saved game, it is loaded right before the last fight, so you can do that again if you choose.

Thanks Hew - I was hoping that was the case. I love the Riddler stuff, but I feel searching for the challenges really throws off the story.

The Riddler stuff is fun, but man, there are a lot of em...I am like halfway there only....

This game is so sweet!!

Spoiler

I just finished the second run in with Scarecrow. The flashback part of it when Bruce relives the murder of his parents was just chilling. The way you get immersed into that is just genius, walking down the hallway as you hear your parents talking and it slowly transforms into a back alley, I loved it so much.

The actual part with Scarecrow at the end was awesome too, I love how those are set up. It's just such a well executed game and I don't even think I'm halfway through yet. I just finished locking up Harley, so maybe I am. I'm trying to take my time though, it's such a great experience.

I have my collector's edition box , beauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuutiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SOLIDSNAKE]

L4D2 comes out around Thanksgiving if I remember correctly but it'll be here before we know it.

 

[Starkiller]

I've been busy, just got to the botanical garden's tracing Harley's finger prints. I don't remember what percentage I am through the game though, I know I'm about half done.


I already want a sequel that takes place in the actual city and that has the other half of the rogue gallery. Actually they have enough to make a trilogy out of this....


Love it!!!
