    Just got finished playing this game.

    Over all thoughts. Talia is a fine piece of ass, I'd love to get lost in that city with her.

    Just picked up this game a few weeks ago. Loving it a lot better than Arkham Asylum so far. Finished the Demon Trials last night which was one of the most aesthetically pleasing moments of the game. Bummed I'll have to purchase all the DLC but this game is just so fun. How much gameplay does the DLC add?

    There are four DLC packs.

    Catwoman you get for free if you bought it new (or used from Gamestop), if not, you unlock the five or so Catwoman missions and all of her combat\predator challenges. I think it's worth buying if you don't have it.

    The Robin pack adds Robin in the combat\predator challenges and adds a pair of challenges for all characters (Batwoman, Catwoman, Robin, Nightwing). You can't play Robin in the main game. I personally hated the train combat challenge.

    The Nightwing pack adds Nightwing in the combat\predator challenges and adds a pair of challenges for all characters (Batwoman, Catwoman, Robin, Nightwing). You can't play Nightwing in the main game.

    There's also a Carnival\Iceberg Lounge\Bat Cave combat\predator challenge pack that unlocks the levels for all the characters.

    There are also a bunch of costume packs that don't add much to gameplay.

    If you like the challenge rooms, I think the extra characters are fun. They definitely handle a lot differently than Batman and have their own unique fighting skills.

    I bought it used from Gamestop and it had a Catwoman code inside but it had already been used by the previous owner. Were they supposed to give another code or am I s.o.l.?

    The company announced that they were going to provide valid codes on used copies. You might want to contact the store where you bought it and see if they'll hook you up.

    I know there have also been issues with codes not working out of the box.

    I'm stuck.
    I'm trying to get to Mr. Freeze, I'm having trouble getting to him. There's that stupid electrified floor, I see a power box to turn it off, but I can't figure out how to hit it. Am I going the wrong way? How do I get to Freeze?

    Just picked this game up on xbox.. I'm only past the steel mill but i been getting the message " damaged download content" it then takes me back to the dash board. The game is basically not playable. I searched online and apparently this is a big issue with this game, unfortunately i have yet to find a solution and i don't know if anyone has. Has anyone here experienced this??

    So does the GOTY edition come with ALL the DLC content (packs, skins, maps etc)? If so, why do the reviews for the wii u Armored Edition say it has the GOTY DLC content and then some?

    Yes it does. Although I haven't actually bought the GOTY edition so I'm not sure if the content is already on the disc or with a code like the Catwoman pack.

    The GOTY edition has everything you can ever get on PS3 or X-box, already on the disc, couldn't ask for more.

    The armored edition has a a new combat option, that i honestly never wanted to use, and different gear, but otherwise it's the same game.

    Basically it's the GOTY version for Wii U. Honestly the only reason to buy it is if the Wii U is your only console option. The PS3 and X-Box versions are the exact same and 30 dollars cheaper, only 20 bucks at gamestop brand new right now.

    If you haven't played it you need to, all other combat games seem downright slow, and Harley Quinn, holy crap. Kudos game designers.

    Got this, Borderlands 2, Orcs Must Die 2 and Torchlight 2 for $51 bucks. I love Steam sales. 4 Games for less than the cost of getting a game like Guild Wars 2 which I was contemplating buying.
