I haven't bought InFamous either (and I meant to), but the AA:CE was so tantalizing 😄
.... I've been looking online and: why is everybody bitchin' about the Batarang, did they actually expect a real, razor-sharp made-out-of metal Batarang? Seriously?

the best kind of DLC hitting your Arkham soon:

The free kind.
Nice to see the game will continue to grow, hopfully with a Valve plan... (Aka: Free DLC)
Well, yesterday I found a temporary solution to my problem, then sat down and played through a third of the game in one sitting. Myyyyy impressions:
Joker is amazing, but we knew that.
Riddler is amazing, and I love it. Not appearing in the game is a bit sad, but his voice is perfect, and I love the Riddler challenges. I've completed 97 riddles, and they tend to be nicely challenging, but not impossibly hard. I also love his commentary, which does a nice job of showing his psychosis.
Oh. My. God. Scarecrow. The Scarecrow sections are amazing. They remind me of Eternal Darkness, and really do Scarecrow justice, which is good because he's one of my favorite Batman villains, and tends to be mistreated as far as actually showing how powerful and dangerous he is.
Arkham itself is a great map, expansive and interesting. Also glad the plot flows nicely through it. The game does a great job of emphasizing the creepiness and "off-ness" of the place.
Gonna go back to playing it now; off to see Ivy I think.

I heard Scarecrow has been likened to
Spoiler:
Psycho Mantis in the way he messes with your system etc.

Counting, like counting cards.
Spoiler:I'd like to see how well Eidos would do if they were to adapt Nightmare on Elm St. into a videogame.
I found Clayface but unfortunately you don't get to fight him. He's stuck in his cell and doesn't reveal his true self. Instead, he just looks like the Warden and Gordon. I even tried to break him out with explosive gel but that failed. Also, he only turns into other people when you turn around and not look. You'll even hear him morphing but you'll never see it.I'm amazed with what Eidos has done with Scarecrow and his nightmare realm.
Honestly I liked Harley better when she was in her Jester outfit. The new outfit she's wearing makes her look like a naughty nurse version of a hooker.

Spoilers you idiot!
The Scarecrow sequences are brilliant! I was actually a little unnerved in the Morgue scene. The second encounter,
Spoiler:was amazingly done.
when Batman flashed back to the alleyway to find his dead parents as a little boy,
I just now obtained the Cryptographic Sequencer. Now I can backtrack and find some nice Riddler stuff.
