Even knowing where the trophy is, having to figure out the combination of gadgets and skills to get it can be quite challenging for some of them. (I can think of one trophy in Wonder City that had me scratching my head for a good 20-30 minutes). Anyway this has been one of the most fun games I've played in awhile (and has delayed me trying Uncharted 3 or the new Assassin's Creed). What are other people's thoughts?

I forgot I made this thread...
I love it! I'm pretty much done with it though - I just need to finish New Game +. I've beaten all the Combat and Predator Challenges (both as Batman and Catwoman), collected all the Riddler Trophies*, completed all the Riddles, completed all the side missions, I have pretty much all the achievements, all the gadgets/upgrades, all the character bios/interview tapes, completed all the Psychical Challenges...
I do think the Story Mode is considerably shorter than that of Arkham Asylum... It also lacks the mystery and psychological horror of Arkham Asylum too; the psycho inmates and Scarecrow made Arkham Asylum creepy.
The boss fights aren't much fun either because they're not challenging enough - they're far too easy.
Apart from those nitpicks (and a few others) I love the game! But out of the two, I much prefer Arkham Asylum.
* I had to use a video guide for about 4 or 5 of them though. I bet the Wonder City trophies you're referring to are either - the one that closes when you step through the window, or the one up above from that behind that breakable ceiling.
I was confused with those two...
