I. The Achievements
-------------------
There are currently 47 achievements worth 1000 gamerscore.
The difficulty achievements are stackable, meaning you can beat the game
on Hard and still get the Easy and Normal achievements. All the secret
achievements are story related and cannot be missed. I have also been
browsing Youtube.com, if you search for achievements on there, they usually
have a video showing you exactly what to do.
A. Big Bang
- Complete story mode on Easy difficulty 50G
- See Biggest Bang
B. Bigger Bang
- Complete story mode on Normal difficulty 50G
- See Biggest Band
C. Biggest Bang
- Complete story mode on Hard difficulty 50G
- Completing the game on Hard will also give you the Easy and
Normal completion achievements. You may want to get the
combo system and sneaking around down before attempting this
on Hard. The game isn't too hard except when you get
completely surrounded by enemies. In areas where enemeies have
guns. You really need to have your sneaking down because getting
shot once or twice will drastically decrease your health. The
enemies also have master marksman ability. So they will pretty
much hit you from any distance. When surrounded by enemies, take
advanctage of the dodge move which is double tapping A and holding
the control stick in a direction. For every stealth type room,
there is always a strategy for getting through. Boss battles may
also take a few attempts before learning the best strategies for
not getting hit.
D. Party Pooper
- Time to break up this party 10G
- You will not be able to get this until right before going to the
final boss in the game. Take out the enemies standing outside
and in the room right before the boss fight. They are all wearing
party hats and won't attack you until you first attack them.
E. Freeflow Combo 5
- Complete a combo of 5 moves (any play mode) 5G
- See Freeflow 40
F. Freeflow Combo 10
- Complete a combo of 10 moves (any play mode) 5G
- See Freeflow 40
G. Freeflow Combo 20
- Complete a combo of 20 moves (any play mode) 10G
- See Freeflow 40
H. Freeflow Combo 40
- Complete a combo of 40 moves (any play mode) 10G
- A continued combo is easy to keep until the numbers start getting
higher. You will need quite a few enemies around you to get this.
The more open the area the better. That way you won't be confined
and risk getting hit. This is easier to get on Normal or Easy
because when enemies are about to attack, you will see a blue flash
over their head so you know about when to counter. You do not
need to do this in story mode. You can get this in challenge mode
as well. This is also easier to get once you have the Critical
Attack Plus upgrade. This will give you 2 points on your combos
when you pull off perfect timied strikes. If you are far from
enemies and are in fear of losing your combo, you can also throw
your batarang by double tapping the Right Trigger really fast.
Another tip is while fighting of a titan with a bunch of enemies
around. Work down the titan until you can get on his back and
then swing the titans fists at the enemies. You can get pretty
high combos while doing this. This will take a bit of patience
and practice.
I. Night Glider
- Glide continuously for over 100m 5G
- For this one, you will have to climb up as high as you can on top
of Arkham Mansion and then run and jump and hold A to glide and
go towards the door leading to Arkham North.
J. Rope-A-Dope-A-Dope
- String up one henchman and drop him to surprise a second
(any play mode) 10G
- Before you can get this, you will have to get the Inverted Takedown
upgrade. You will have to be in an area where stealth is needed.
You can also do this on a predator challenge. Stand on a gargoyle
until an enemy walks underneath you. Press Y to swoop down and
grab them up. Make sure no other enemies are near or they will spot
you. After hanging the enemy upside down, swing to another gargoyle.
When the other enemies come to take a look and the guy hanging upside
down. Throw a batarang and the rope holding the enemy.
K. Mano-A-Mano
- Take on a beast in hand to hand combat 10G
- You won't be able to get this until you face the titans enemies
You cannot use your batarang on them or you will not get
this achievement. The first chance to get it is during the double
Titan fight. Let the titans run into each other and try your
best to avoid them. Titans have 3 quarter bars of energy. Once one
get completely depleted, run and start attacking them with the X button
and you will jump on their back and start swinging them around
kinda aimlessly. Just keep swinging them at the other titan. Once one
titan is completely killed, this achievement is yours.
If you miss this in story mode, you can get it on the Freeflow combat
extreme challenges. Some have you face titans in them.
L. Catch!
- Catch a Batarang (any play mode) 5G
- You cannot get this until you have the Remote Control Batarang Upgrade.
Stand out in a wide open area and just throw the remote controlled
batarang and then just make its way back to you. May take a minute to
get the Batarangs controls down.
M. Freeflow Perfection
- Perform a perfect combo including all of Batman's combat
moves (any play mode) 10G
- This can be quite annoying. Batman has a good list of moves and you
must do them all in one combo. Here is the list of all moves you must
do. Remember, you must have all move upgrades to do this. Pick
the challenge Sewer Bat (Extreme) and try this on the first round.
If you mess up or get hit, simply just retry challenge. Here is the
list of all the moves that must be done.
Strike - X
Counter - Y
Stun _ B
Dodge - Double tap A
Quick Batarang - Double tap Left Trigger
Quick Bat Claw - Double Tap Right Trigger
Throw - X+A After a 5 hit combo
Standing Takedown - Y+B After another 5 hit combo
Ground Takedown - RIght Trigger + Y
- For the Throw and Standing takedown, you will need to first get one 5
hit combo going to do one of the attacks and then get another 5 hit combo
going, meaning you counter will have to be 10 or above to do another
attack like that. The ground takedown will want to be the last move you
perform.
N. Freakshow Rodeo
- Ride a beast and unleash its power 10G
- You cannot get this until you are facing the Titan and enemy ambush
in the elevators. You will have to deplete one of the titan's three
bars of energy. After this, run up and strike the Titan and you will
jump on his back, now just hit 10 enemies while on its back.
O. Freeflow Bronze
- Achieve 8 medals on combat challenges 10G
- see Freeflow Gold
P. Freeflow Silver
- Achieve 16 medals on combat challenges 25G
- see Freeflow Gold
Q. Freeflow Gold
- Achieve 24 medals on combat challenges 50G
- To unlock all the Freeflow Challenges, you must first find a majority
of the Riddler's Riddles in the Story mode. There are a total of 8
Freeflow challenges. You can gain a max of 3 medals per challenge.
This is where you will really be tested for your combo skills. This
will take a lot of patience and practice. Some of the challenges get
really difficult. You get bonus points for not getting hit in a round.
You also get Variation bonus points for doing a lot of different moves
in a combo. YOu also get bonus points for doing the entire round with
one combo. The challenges are 4 rounds long and you will sometimes
face enemies with guns and knives. Remember you have to stun enemies
with knives before you can attack them or your combo will be broken.
Also the guys with stun rods will have to be attacked from behind by
dodging over their head first. Like I said this will take a lot of
practice and patience. Here are the score requirements for each
challenge.
Intensive Treatment - 18,000
Sewer Bat - 18,000
Shock and Awe - 30,000
Rumble in the Jungle - 30,000

- See Predator Gold
T. Predator Gold

of the Riddler's Riddles in the Story mode. These are complete
stealth missions. When you press the Back button while in the
