    But I want the fancy edition. And the fancy edition of the PS3 version would be pointless to me. I already have RE5 gold and I already have all of the PS1 RE games thanks to PS+.

    As for Arkham City, I am balls deep in that shit. I just completed the Mad Hatter scenario. That was cool as fuck. Ra's al Ghul was pretty bad ass as well. After exiting Mad Hatter's place I know have another Deadshot victim to find and I also need to find Nora Fries. I also need to head to the Sawmill which is where the last cannister is that I need to destroy for Bane. Phew! I have a lot of shit going on.

      Ok, so I took out that bitch Deadshot. Now I'm really looking forward to finding Nora Fries and getting I to the saw mill to get that stuff canister. The amount of characters and fan service in this game is incredible. I thought AA was great with that but this game is wow.

      I pretty much mastered gliding aro nd the city now. I had to get to that reporter dude in three minutes or Deadshot would kill him. I got there in a little over one minute.

      Since my first encounter with The Watcher I haven't seen him since. I guess he'll resurface soon.

      My only real complaint with the game are the controls. It reminds me a lot of Assassin's Creed in the way that sometimes Batman just doesn't want to seem to do what you want him to and will just do his own thing. That's a pain in the ass when you're trying to complete some times Riddler trophy or something. Also, does anyone remember how to do that move when grappling where you can kick or pounce on an enemy of f they are near an edge of a building? It was introduced early on and I can't find it in my list of abilities.

      Also for Med, Talia>Vicki Vale>Catwoman.

        The ridiculous amount of characters in this game pretty much made it "Boner Jams '03."

          So, the other day I infiltrated the warehouse where Nora Fries is being held, but had to save right after. Getting in required several of your gadgets and I though it was genius. I have to admit that I had to check a YouTube guide though. Not because I couldn't figure it out per se, but mostly because I'm usually only able to play the game for maybe an hour or so per day. So I usually forget which new abilities I gained or unlocked the previous day and had completely forgotten that I obtained the freeze bombs that allowed you to freeze water.

          Either way, that part was really cool. I'm definitely looking forward to tracking her down and then going after Joker in the saw mill.

          I also still need to track down Zsasz with those crazy pay phones. I hope I didn't fuck myself because, I'm not sure I mentioned, the first few of those I didn't realize I was supposed to be tryingto trace the call. I just thought I was supposed to listen to his ramblings. I've done about four I think and I'm only around 70% I think. I also recently had a phone ringing near me but I was in the middle of kicking ass so I put it on the back burner. When I was finished mopping up the floor with Joker's pathetic henchmen the ringing stopped. Boo.

            Ok, so I finished the Zsasz, Bane and Mr. Freeze side missions and I'm infiltrating the saw mill to go after Joker. Am I nearing the end of the "story"? I haven't seen hide nor hair of The Watcher since the first time he showed up early in the game and I guess I need to solve a lot more riddles to get to the next Riddler hostage. I'm kind of burned out on those tho gh but I want to at least save the Hostages.

              I guess congratulations are finally in order because Arkham City is finally complete. What an amazing game. Now on to cleaning up some of the trophies.

              I still need ONE more upgrade, The Watcher and the Riddler. But I know I'll never get that. I think I need to do the Serial Killer side mission too but I honestly don't remember anything about it or what I need to do.

                You aren't missing too much. The Watcher and the Serial Killer side missions seem to only really exist for the sole purpose of setting up what I thought at the time was DLC, but since that ship has sailed I guess it could be sequel stuff? But even then with the rumors of them going to the Silver Age, that might not be true either. In both cases there is absolutely no resolution and just dangling plot lines.

                Also, as someone who got all the Riddler trophies, I honestly can't say it's worth it. There are just too fucking many of them and the payoff is fun I guess, but not worth the time invested into it, IMO.

                The thing I go back to every now and then are the Riddler Revenge challenge room. Some of the stealth challenges this time around are INSANE.

                Glad you enjoyed it!

                  I did end up finishing all of the side missions except for the Riddler. I only need two more of his hostages but that would still mean well over 100 riddles to solve. I upgraded everything except for one or two Catwoman things.

                  You're right Seth. The way that Watcher and Serial Killer stuff played out you would have to assume it's for DLC that never happened. Very weird.

                  As far as my Vita is concerned I'm thoroughly addicted to RttS. I got optioned to AAA but tore shit up and got called back up a few weeks before the end of the season. I'm thinking of asking for a trade because the Twins suck ass. I'm so sick and tired of smacking doubles, even ones off the wall, and the fucking CPU runner on forst doesn't score. You're fucking with my RBIs son!

                    I am addicted to RttS on Vita. I've also been playing a lot of Super Mario Bros 2 on 3DS. I know Nintendo get s a ton of shit for rehashing the same franchises over and over but I don't think I'll ever get tired of a Mario game.

                          Do you play the field and run the bases or do you just hit?

                              Since it appears that EA is never going to get off their lazy asses and release even ONE roster update for Madden on the Vita I decided to start a franchise using the fantasy draft option. In honor of Bomber and the Seahawks beating the Packers last night, plus the fact that i like their uniforms and just wanted to try a new team, I went with teh Seahawks. Obviosuly the team doesn't make a whole lot of difference considering you're drafting all the players.

                              Here's what I ended up with:
                              QB- Newton, Troy Smith, Daniel
                              HB- Forte, Hunter, Pierce
                              FB- Leach
                              WR- Fitzgerald, Marshall, Amendola, Sims-Walker, Sanzenbacher
                              TE- Gates, Zach Miller
                              OL- No one really notable, just a solid group all rated above 80
                              DE- Hardy, Merriman
                              DT- Kyle Williams, Peko, Ayodele
                              LB- Brad Jones, AJ Hawk
                              CB- Arrington, Nick Collins,
                              S- Griffin, Whitner, Poole
                              K- Novak
                              P- scrub

                              I'm 2-0 so far and I'm really enjoying it.

                                Apparently the Fudge Packers couldn't handle the 2011 alternate lime green unis and the combo of Forte on the ground and Fitzgerald in the air. I whipped their asses 48-3. Of course it didn't help that apparently they got the short end of the draft straw because Derek Anderson is their starting QB. They were 1-12 on third down and only had 119 yard of total offense, 91 of which was on the ground with McFadden.
