Swear to God, this Arkham City thing is driving me nuts.

Is there a patch? A cheat that will let me skip the damned final boss? In fact, I’m almost ready to find somebody who will come over and beat the aforementioned damned final boss for me.  I’m almost at the point where I’d pay money.

Seriously, my only goal in life with this game right now is to go finish the remaining side quests so that I can go punch Riddler in the face. They got the relationship between him and Batman perfectly right, by the way: after dealing with his arrogance, bad puns, homicidal tendencies, and insufferable attitude all game, I suspect that I will never feel more like the Dark Knight than I will while giving that particular villain a savage and well-deserved beat-down.  But I have to get past the stupid boss first…

  1. My bro beat it fairly easily, two tries. It must be you, man.

    Unless you are playing on hard mode, in which case it is pretty tough.

    1. No, it’s on easy, and it’s all me. I clearly suck at boss fights: I button mash and get flustered. I just don’t care anymore. 😉

  2. Hmmmm . . . not a gamer, but maybe Congress, after establishing a ‘Reasonable Profits Board’ can put into place a ‘Reasonable Game Challenge Board’. It just seems so UNFAIR. And at some point you’ve just achieved enough levels, amirite?

    1. Phhhbth. I don’t want a gamer handout: I’m almost at the point where I’d pay ten bucks to have somebody finish the boss fight for me.

  3. You want money paid to be result based??? You poor sad fool. That’s not how it’s done. You must first assemble a panel of failed gamers. That panel then must accept applications from all persons interested in said $10. They will then decide who gets the $10 based upon who needs it the most and you will give them that $10 upfront. Actual results do not matter.

  5. I lobbied a call to my bro. Ill let you know (when he returns my call) if he has a trick or anything.

    Sonic the hedgehog code smack (that I get) makes me feel old.

  6. St Milton agrees with you Moe. By entering into a free market based decision, both parties receive something of value, exchanged to the benefit of both. The gamer (who will probably turn out to be 12) gets cash, and you get to go punch the Riddler in the face. Winners all around.

    1. That’s why you should always default to the market solution, DanB. Although I should note that I do not know that I will get to punch the Riddler in the face, given that I have carefully not looked up that cutscene on the Internet. That does factor into the amount of money that I am willing to spend.

  9. For most boss fights where I get stuck, I google. Hasn’t failed me yet. You can usually find out what you’re doing wrong that way. Not to be condescending, but: Just enter the boss name and game name (in case you’re new to this whole internet thing the kids are talking about).
