Um, if I were to purchase this game brand new, do I still need to buy the Catwoman DLC separately or is it included?
Don't really feel like handing out 70$ for the game and then even more for the Catwoman DLC right now.

In my opinion the catwoman dlc is pretty bad. You'll be playing through the game upgrading batman because it's hard to upgrade a character you know you aren't going to play much. Then the game will make you play as catwoman and fight 25 guys, literally, in a room called, I kid you not, the gladiator pit. So basically you have to fight more guys at once than you've ever had to the whole game with a crappy character. Also the hardest mission in the game is a catwoman mission and it's at the VERY end of the game, so you can't even play in free roam mode until you beat this crappy mission. If Catwoman didn't look like a supermodel I would say this DLC is a total waste. But that's just my opinion.

So you can get free roam mode after you beat the game. I'm wondering if the people who don't have it can get to free roam mode.

If you don't have the dlc you can still play freeroam forever after you get freed by the games brief tutorial.

Nice enough. Enemies respawn? Mostly asking cause I don't want to be moving about an empty city.

Oh yes, just not in the linear parts of the game.

If you buy it new, you get the code for Catwoman. Playing as Batman is much better.

Finished Arkham Asylum without using any gargoyles, much more fun than with. Arkham City is an easier game as a whole but the stealth is more deep so it's turning out to be more fun.

I've been watching the 1990's animated series and was thinking "How awesome would it be if the developers made DLC missions based around the episodes?" I think it would be sweet and it could totally work. Even if it was like one episode every three weeks or something if it was priced right I'd buy it in a heart beat. Growing up with B:TAS it is amazingly nostalgic for me even if the episodes where aimed at a younger audience, I still enjoy them.

Got a few spoilers in my review thread, if anyone has finished the game, and would like to know some secrets, or if you just want to see.

Hey, guys! (^_-)/ Happy New Year & all that jazz. Hehe. I have a favor to ask. I've heard that Arkham City shipped with beta codes for Gotham City Imposters, which I'm really keen on playing, but can't get codes here in Japan. As such, I was wondering if anyone would be willing to hook me up with their code, if they have no interest in trying the beta out. Just PM me, if it's cool. I'd be really grateful. (^_-)d

I'll check it later if there are codes on it they are yours.

(*^_^*) Thanks, rr!

Did anyone else feel that Two face was grossly under used ? like seriously during my entire playthrough I saw him twice ridculous.

Also the surprise at the ending was freaking awesome if you know what I mean ;D , love that character.

Overall this was a awesome game, totally worth every penny.

I just started this game today. One observation ...Catwoman is built like a brickhouse and her costume is very slutty. Is it just me or was anyone else wondering how her boobies stayed in when Twoface had her strung upside down ??

well watch, I was a little too busy paying to the game to notice Catwoman or her boobies, sorry man lol

there's always time for boobies!

Not in my world lol

That's her superpower. To leave us wondering and many a fan boy to be blue balled.

hooray for second head blood rushes lol

I have heard A LOT of good things about this game and am putting it on my "games to pick up in the future" list. What makes it so good ?, any opinions Rr or any one else whose played it ?

The graphics, story, gameplay, and all of that stuff is AMAZING, I thought that Arkham Asylum was great but this game blee it out of the water in every category, in my opinion that is, but I will say that I hated the ending, sorry but will not continue on (spoilers and such). But I will finish with this, this is a game that you should definitely buy as soon as you can

I have to agree 100% with Vrals even tho I've only scratched the surface. Compared to Batman AA, Batman AC is bigger, gameplay seems more refined and graphics look better, Rocksteady really put the time and efort into this game. Matt gave me the thumbs up on it so I got it for Christmas. The price is right nowadays.

I third Vrals, this game is amazing, so much better and bigger than AA, combat is better and graphics are amazing.
