I'm on my 5th playthrough and I eventually got the riddler trophies w/out the internet.

I have the game for PS3, but I haven't actually gotten around to playing it yet, lol.

Couldn't agree more.  At first blush, it's like "just hit the same button over and over!"  and 80% of the time, that's about right.  But the other 20% requires sharp timing to do counters and stuns and evades so that you can do the freeflow combos.  And I loves me some freeflow combos.

Has anyone beaten it on hard mode? I am playing through with it but I keep on dying. Truthfully, I have very little skill in the brawls but am great with take downs.

Admittedly, I am still playing it through on Easy.  I like to just blow through a game first and get the "story" aspect of it, and then take a more measured playthrough the second time (exception: i try to 100% Zelda and Metroid and Castlevania when I can).

I've been seeking out as many Riddler trophies as I can manage, and I have about half so far, just past the Croc's Lair level, but mainly I don't want the initial narrative to be incomplete because I keep dying at a certain point over and over again.  I'll deal with that frustration when I'm ready to graduate from gaming experience to gaming challenge.

What I really dig is that (at least in the PC version) there are a ton of unlockable challenge modes where you can do brawls and stealth missions and get bonuses for doing special takedowns.

Yeah that is in the xbox360 version too, I enjoy those a lot. When I keep dying to brawls in hard mode I go play a few stealth missions and relax that way.

Yeah. It's like that on mine too. All of the systems have that. It is awesome

Wait a minute....
Why did my post get deleted?
