      Getting close to about 85% on Batman: AA. The Riddler trophies are pretty hard to find later in the game , but i did about..ehh, 40-45% on my first play through. Its just going through the WHOLE game again to find them is stressing.

          It's a lot easier if you find the Riddler's maps in the game. I think most can be found in the rooms blocked by the electric barriers. So after you get the sequencer from Sharpe, spend some time to open those rooms and guard stations up to find the maps.

              Marking the debut of Steam functioning on any next generation console, the features shipping in the PS3 version of Portal 2 include cross platform play (PC/Mac vs. PS3) for multiplayer games, persistent cloud-based storage of PS3 saved games, and cross platform chat (PC/Mac and PS3).

              In addition, those who purchase Portal 2 for the PlayStation 3 may unlock a Steam Play (PC & Mac) copy of Portal 2 at no additional cost by linking their PSN and Steam accounts.

              "We made a promise to gamers at E3 that Portal 2 for the PlayStation 3 would be the best console version of the product," said Gabe Newell, co-founder and president of Valve. "Working together with Sony we have identified a set of features we believe are very compelling to gamers. We hope to expand upon the foundation being laid in Portal 2 with more Steam features and functionality in DLC and future content releases."

              "We designed the Portal 2 PS3 experience to be very straightforward for gamers," said Josh Weier, project lead on Portal 2 at Valve. "PS3 gamers will be able to simply drop the Blu-Ray disc in the PS3, link to their Steam account from inside the game, and all their Steam friends (on PC and Mac) will be visible and accessible for chat and game invites."

                  This week, both Xbox LIVE and Xbox.com will receive small updates that I wanted to make you aware of.



                  Xbox LIVE Dashboard update:

                  On Wednesday, January 19th we will issue a mandatory dashboard update that (re) enables the ‘Boot to Disc’ option in the Xbox 360 dashboard. After you accept the update, you’ll be able to set the option to boot to the Xbox 360 dashboard OR directly to the game you have in the tray when you power up your console. This option can be found in the System Settings.



                  Xbox.com update:

                  Additionally, on Thursday January 20th the Xbox.com team will ship an update that contains a small update to the Gamercards. We’ve updated the Gamercard look and feel a bit and removed gamerzone from the card. Other than that, the same amount of information is on the card. Here is an example:

                          hmmm, nice option if you need it. i am surprised MS would want anyone to bypass the dash and all the free advertising they can market. I like booting to the dash so i can see any new items i might be interested in. the dash is like an experience in itself

                            That Portal news is pretty groundbreaking. I know Epic tried a bit of that with Unreal Tourney 3 (mods and such) but this sounds to finally bring all of that to fruition.

                              Sounds like they are really just creating steam for the PS3 which is what a lot of people thought they were going to do back when they announced they were partnering up.

                              Its a good thing they are cross platforming it though because that would of been a bitch to have two steam logins if you owned a ps3 and a comp with steam on it.

                                Yeah, but STEAM on PS3 is a huge deal. Doesn't that mean free mods and maps from the community?
