I'll swap someone Red Faction: Guerilla for Batman...

That's what i did. That and Sega Ultimate Collection.

For those two I got Arkham and £5 store credit.

Got Arkham Asylum today, quite liking it, 'specially detective mode and some of the moves.

Not done too much yet, just got outside and looking for Commissioner Gordon, and heading to protect the batmobile, also got the first riddler riddle straight off.

I found that a combination of Finesse, Sniper, Better Criticals, Concentrated Fire and Grim Reapers Sprint with A3-21's Plasma Rifle = Almost everything dead with one round of VATS.

That sounds pretty much like my character. Except I have the Tesla Cannon instead which is about twice as powerful as A3-21's. Still, super mutant overlords, albino radscorpions and feral ghoul reavers take some killing.

The collection of gadgets are so satisfying to use, the grappel and line launcher in particular are brilliant.

Cinema/Machinima mode in Uncharted 2 look great I always thought the replay/edit feature in Halo 3 needed to be in more games.

EDIT: I meant to say that Batman has been flawlessly entertaining so far except for the stuff in Killer Crocs lair, it was too tedious and repetetive but luckily didn't last too long.
The lead up to the bits with Scarecrow have been fantastic. The bit where you walk around as young Bruce was great, as was the bit where the game seemingly glitches and crashes then replays the opening movie with Batman and Jokers roles reversed (I thought my game had fucked up before seeing this and when I tried to skip the movie it comes up at the bottom right saying "Press J to skip". And then when he breaks out from his buried coffin and his capes is all muddy was also awesome.. And the Ultra Batclaw is ultra bitching.

Just come up against Scarecrow for the first time, very good particularly His parent's bodies and running around scarecrow to escape..

Now I've just reached Bane. Gonna fight him a bit later.

This is all making me want to get Batman. I usually don't like to pay more than £20 for a game, which is why I've only just got Resi 5, but I am tempted.

Excuse me while I laugh until I pass out from oxygen starvation.

Well, it might have worked...

I'm exactly the same. I think I've only ever paid more than £20 once, and that was for Fable 2 (shush, Fable-haters). I really want Batman, but I think I can just about hold on until the price has gone down a bit.

Is anyone else finding Harley Quinn rather sexy in her new get up?

I like the last encounter the best. You'll see why.

What's the highest combo you've gotten? I'm stuck at about 60 for my highest.

Yeah, especially when she says 'Mama Spank'

Highest combo is about 30 ish, i find it hard to chain more once I get critical hits as it floors everyone in one punch and the distance is sometimes to big to get the next hit in.

[fatseff1234]

Wow...

I need me a girl that's into Cosplay...

EDIT: The Joker is actually quite hillarious...

Thought I'd have a go on Killzone 2 tonight. 90 Meg patch. No wonder this console never gets used for anything but blu rays.

[monkeyman]

Sorry, I don't understand why you'd have a problem with something that improves the game.....90 megs is nothing.
