Batman: Arkham

If it's what I think you're talking about, yes. GREAT move.

I guess there are 3 slightly different endings depending on what difficulty you beat it on.

I read they were all the same, just three different characters are shown at the end.

I got the Bane ending.

Me too. I just wrapped up the game, the identity of the spirit of Arkham and all but 1 trophy. The one I'm missing is in the caves somewhere and I've gone back and forth looking for it. Makes me think that it's in Croc's lair, since it's the only section closed off to me. Does anyone else have any ideas? Also, how is it I'm only 85% done with the game, but I'm done with it? Do the challenges count as part of the game? If so, I'm screwed because I can't find that one trophy that will give me access to the last challenge

For me Ska, it was Poison Ivy. It reminded me of that part of Forced Unleashed where you are pulling down the Imperial Cruiser Although there was a little too much Scarecrow for my liking too. I can give the hallucinations created by him and Bane's amp'd up behavior a pass. For me, it was the side effects of the Titan chemicals. At the moment I'm debating on if I'm going to run one more time through the caves or start playing something else. I've been entrenched in this game for a few weeks now. Before I get too many WTF's and GASP, I have a 5 month old son that has his own schedule. So I usually play it off and on through the day and when he and the wife go to sleep.

I quickly traded it in at Gamestop while the getting was good once I beat it a few days ago. I'm ready for a sequel! Announce it! ANNOUNCE IT!!!!

I didn't see it myself, but has anyone heard that bit about Ra's?

the cameo in the morgue or his role in the sequel? If the latter, no, what is it?

Look up. I'm guessing it's a trophy hidden behind a destructible cieling panel. I don't specifically remember anything IN Croc's lair, but I do recall there being one that you had to rip the cieling apart to get to. The other thing to take into account is ziplining down there. When you get into the sewers, you go right to get to Croc's lair. I think there may have been something to the left.

Did you go back to the morgue after you beat the game?

no i haven't beaten it, but i hear he's gone when you return.

Yup! That's just awesome.

I've beaten it, now I'm going back and finding all the challenges and stuff. There's just 3 "?"'s I can't seem to get. Still, really ENJOYING this game!

I wnet to the morgue a couple times and so far i haven't seen Ras' body. Where is he?

If you go to the morgue early in the game, he's in a body bag, toe tagged. He's the answer to one of the riddles, in fact. If you go later in the game, his body is gone.

Mnemosis, whatever I am looking for in the caves, it's not on the secret map. It's one of those secret location trophies that is shown in the riddles, but not on the map. Once I wrap my head around beating the extreme challange, I'll swing through the caves again. Unfortunately I have to go through those damn labyrinth's too. I wasn't a big fan of those either and had to look at the map to see where I was supposed to be going when I was playing the game.

Ohhhhhhhhhh.... could it be one of the invisible question marks? That only appear when Detective mode is on? I remember one of those being VERY tricky to find.

i saw a vid of Ras' cameo and it says his corpse is in Dr. Young's office.

Oh, shit, you're right! Wasn't the morgue at all.

your're welcome, sensei.

Really? It wasn't a toe tag in the morgue? Must have been a file then for it to be in Young's office?

Found this. You guys may have seen it, but it is all the nods to characters that aren't really in the game. There's four pages. Lot of really cool, little things.

No, it's definitely a toe tag, but now that he mentions it, I seem to remember it being somewhere weird.

i have a new question;
i'm in the library part of the Arkham Manor and the Joker has two people strapped together and there's like a timer counting down. How do i get past the electric doors blocking me from rescuing them?

also for the cameos of Batman's rouges gallery, here's a guide to finding them (careful though, spoilers i didn't read all the way):

Isn't that the link BlueMaxx just posted?

Anyhow... you have to climb through the vents to get up to chandelier and then cut it down with a batarang. It's one of the coolest bits in the game, I think.

yea climb to the top and cut down the chandelier. I would not say its the coolest, it was the most aggravating for me..... but after that it gets very cool very quick....

I just love how Batman it is. Oh, I've got a bunch of guys I've got to take out. I'll batarang a chandelier onto their heads!

Finally found that last trophy Mnemosis,

Spoiler:

So now with me finishing that and the challenges up I'm wondering why I'm still at 86%. Anyone have any thoughts on how to wrap things up? Do I need to play the game under the different difficulty levels to wrap it up?

The combat and predator challenges from the main menu count towards the 100% completion.

When you say "the challenges" do you mean unlocking all of them? Or beating each one. Because you have to beat each one for a 100%
