I'll be honest, the hardest thing about the game is the fact the Batmobile controls fly directly in the face of years of playing driving games. The Right trigger for gas? Sure, I'm good with that.... but instinctively, that should mean the left trigger is brake. I could get used to it, if there weren't puzzles that required quick braking, then you go into battlemode and end up tumbling off the damn platform.

So, I've completed the game bar the Riddler trophies, and so decided to watch the 100% complete ending on Youtube. {Spoiler} I assume that Batman faked his death and is now using fear toxin to scare criminals in to thinking he is some demon thing? It was a crap ending and left me really disappointed. Decent enough game, got bored of Tank Wars half way through and will likely now sell. The additional content is a nice touch that may keep some interested, but I have no interest in paying the same amount I paid for the game to get some bonus levels that may add to the story, but are unlikely to be worth essentially paying double for the main game.

Go into the pause menu and options, you can change it in there. Sorry I can't remember exactly what it refers to the system as. Riddler trophy update. Got to 150 and I'm giving up. The challenge at the orphanage with all of the question marks to hit can go f*** itself.

T he challenge at the orphanage with all of the question marks to hit can go f*** itself. Is that's the one where you have to hit the lighted ones before time runs out? If so the trick to doing that one is to look behind the wall and there is a fuse box you can attach the batmobile winch to, which will give you unlimited second weapon energy then just use homing missiles and the Vulcan gun

Shocked people aren't enjoying it so much. I can barely put it down. It's just way too much Batmobile. You've got the biggest map the series has had, and it would be great to walk from one end to the other just beating the piss out of thugs, but there are 27,000 tanks so you've got to use the Batmobile. They also finally gave us Nightwing in story mode and the ability to switch between characters in some fights, but there's more focus on the Batmobile. The game is Batmobile: Arkham Knight. I like the game, but my Zod there is way way too much Batmobile vs tanks.

If that was cut down by....I dunno like 20%? I think I'd like the game a lot more. The character switching stuff is actually really fun. I loved the sections with Nightwing, Robin and Catwoman. I wish the game had more of that! Especially since a big theme of the game is about Batman's interaction with his 'family'. {Spoiler}Disappointed we didn't get one last tag team fight with Red Hood and Batman at the end.
Red Hood just Splinter in TMNT2's it and disappears.

They should have called this game Batman: CARkham Knight? Am I right? Am I right?

I wouldn't mind the Batmobile as much if there was an actual reason for it to be here that made sense.

Yeah, when people said they wanted to drive the Batmobile, they didn't mean build the entire game around it.
But anyway, I just beat the game 100%. I'll have a break, then dive into New Game+.

I think the Batmobile is a lot of fun. It destroys basically everything and I love that. I wish they had more of Redneck Riddler's Race Tracks.

Thoughts on the Knightfall ending? Disappointed really. {Spoiler}It isn't even needed. It's heavily hinted that Bruce continues as Batman anyway. So why unmask him? It just seems like such a downer when Batman should be triumphant. Bruce just loses everything at the end. His friends, his identity. It leaves a bad taste. In addition there are so many loose threads.
-Why did Jason save Batman? -What led to his change of heart? -How does Jason's torture and survival affect Batman? -Does Batman feel less burdened and less guilt over Jason if he forgives Batman? -What is the Knightfall Protocol in the Arkham universe? -How did Tim, Oracle, Gordon and Dick react to finding out the Arkham Knight? -How did the world react to the revelation of Batman being Bruce Wayne? So yeah. not a fan. Yeah, when people said they wanted to drive the Batmobile, they didn't mean build the entire game around it. But anyway, I just beat the game 100%. I'll have a break, then dive into New Game+. How did you find all those Riddles? To quote Jim Gordon at the end of Arkham Origins, I had help. www.youtube.com/user/PowerPyxThat channel has videos with the location of every riddler trophy, riddle, bomb victim and breakable object.

Buildings with generator that we can apply jumper cables to do not. As for the tanks {Spoiler}{Spoiler} At one point the Arkham Knight says I'm sending drones so Batman won't have to hold back. Then at another he says I just want to kill Batman. surely if he REALLY wanted to kill Batman AND knows that Batman won't kill ANYONE. He'd know that sending Manned Tanks would present a far greater problem to Batman as he'd have to disable them while sparing the pilots.
