Don't know why all the tough love for AC...? C'mon guys its just good unadultered fun! speaking of too many characters, being a fan of batman comics since I was a kid, I was stoked to see everyone of them!!! I mean u land on a roof and there's Azreal how cool is that?!! While the boss fights are borderline pathetic, its great eye candy nonetheless.

and for those who find the gameplay a little too easy, I recommend playing again in harder difficulty once the game is completed (no counters in combat)...
 
I can't register my copy of Games for Windows Live. Everytime I try to register it, it says that my copy has already been registered to another id! What do I do?

I bought my copy on letsbuy. The package was intact and unopened.
 
Not sure if anyone noticed but Arkham City has qualified for a Guinness Record (yet another one for Rocksteady!) for featuring some of the 'Most utterly evil supervillains' in a video game!

Another honor for Rocksteady.

I have completed more than 50% of the game and i would like to mention that there are some cheesy moments especially while connecting the story between the villains.

But nevertheless it keeps you interested.Yes sometimes the same repetitive tasks will make you impatient but still they arent that bad.Btw boss fights till now were satisfactory enough.Solomon grundy and ra's al ghul worths a mention.

I feel Robin was completely unnecessary here.Btw like i mentioned before this game is visually impressive too.

[font=Georgia, Times,]As long rumored, the GOTY edition of the Dark Knight's latest adventure will feature all-new story-based content focusing onHarley Quinn, the homicidal clown-girl that keeps the Joker warm at night.

It comes with all of the previous DLC—which focused on new challenge maps, alternate outfits and playable outfits—and also includes a download code for the Batman: Year One animated movie. Once again, those of you who waited get a pretty good deal for presumably the same price as the original release. Batman: Arkham City Game of the Year Edition comes out May 29th. For those of you who already have the game, you'll be able to download the standalone Harley Quinn's Revenge DLC on April 30th.

UPDATE: Here's how Warner Bros describes the content coming in Harley's Revenge:

The Harley Quinn's Revenge mission sends players back into Arkham City to face their final challenge as they interchange between playing as both Batman and Robin. Gamers must utilize each of the characters' unique combat and investigative skills to uncover Harley's vengeful plan and shut the gates on the urban mega-prison forever. In addition to experiencing a new storyline, fans can explore new environments and face-off against Harley's all new gang of thugs.

I completed the main story.

Now on cat's missions.

I just keep on staring at her while she walks instead of doing the missions! Which is why I'm stuck and unable to do any missions!

Can't help it!!

I'll give it 8.5/10.

Gameplay's awesome. But bosses are ridiculously simple to beat(which cut the above rating's 0.5 marks) and bad coding cut it's 1 mark. If you liked aa, you will like ac.

Plus, I liked riddler's new type of trophies, because in aa, they became monotonous to collect after a point of time.

Shitty port? Where did you get that from? The only cribbing I found were performance issues pertaining to DX11 mode. DX9 worked perfectly for me, just like the last game.

Some of my friends say its worth better on PS3 and Xbox. Now i don't know what else to say them except 'okay' cause honestly i loved the previous game and most probably will love it too. Now as you said it works perfectly then will give it a try as soon as possible. Although will DX11 run fine on my system?
