Yeah I felt the same- it is overrated, was expecting it to be much better. Still a great game though.

Anyway, I beat AA on hard mode, tried to do the same on AC and I couldn't do it. The bad guys just kept getting up after I battered them. Took waaaaaay too much time to get rid of them.

Did you manage to complete AC on hard in the end though?

I loved Arkham City but I did get a little p'd off trying to get all the riddler trophies (i hope to god i never have to see a remote batarang again).
I do also think they slightly botched the main story and it felt a bit uneven (I don't think this is a spoiler but just in case, SPOILER, Who was the main villain, Strange or Joker? Their stories should have connected somehow but I don't think they did.

I don't know if you've downloaded them but Catwoman missions are good addition to the game, even if Catwoman herself can be a little annoying to control.

Haven't finished it on normal yet

Catwoman is great. She's a lot faster, and that whip makes you feel kinky

They should've made the story mode longer?

I never enjoy side stories, trophy hunting, etc. Seems like a waste of time.

I hate it too, but it's part of the game and I obsess over it

Yeah decided to take a break from the game as the trophys are pishing me off! Some of them are so friggin hard it's crazy! Could google how to do them but that's cheating!

The side stories are an important part in Arkham City. They give strong hints of what could happen in the next game.
