To get the trophy, you have to take out all the henchman.
#BATMAN ARKHAM ASYLUM BANE PS3#
There’s a PS3 trophy you can earn here called Party Pooper. When you show up to enter the Joker’s party, about 20 henchmen will be waiting for you, but they will not immediately attack. You’ll have to go through this a few times before she finally goes down. You can usually just hit her two or three times before the opportunity goes away and she starts pounding you with the vine growth again. The only time you can is when that one opening lights up on the left side. When she’s shooting two fireballs at once, just dodge out of the way but don’t try to hit her. As the fireball things are coming at you, jump to one side and then quickly back the other way and hit the button to throw your batarang. If only one side lights up, it means Ivy will open the eye for a moment and you need to be ready to hit her. When Ivy starts shooting those red fireball things at you, pay close attention to where they originate. You can’t hit Ivy at all during this time, so don’t bother trying. After a few tries you can judge where the growth will come up. In the last round, there’s one part where you need to stick toward the middle of the screen because the sides won’t be safe any more. When fighting henchman, be careful not to go into the vines. You don’t want to get caught up in them because they do a lot of damage. You have but a split second to throw the batarang and hit her, so you need to be very quick.ĭuring the first few rounds with Ivy, try to stick to the far left and right sides of the screen when her vines stamp the ground and make the vines sprout up. The only way you can damage Ivy is when the eye opens on her giant beanstalk. This is probably the hardest boss battle in the game because it goes on for so long. At the end, just set off the explosives as soon as he walks over the opening and you’ve got him. The key to this part is to never stop moving, but be careful not to make too much noise or he’ll come after you. Be ready to throw your batarang and knock him into the water when he is running at you. This one is easy since most of the time you’ll be running away. This battle isn’t all that hard, but timing is critical.

Just watch the circular motion it moves in, and get out of the way when needed. All the while you are fighting, you’ll need to avoid the electrical current flowing through the floor. The key here is to jump behind the guys carrying the electric sticks, because you can only hit them from behind. Harley QuinnĪlthough you don’t actually fight her, the battle leading up to her capture can be pretty tough. If you get too distracted by the other henchman, Bane will charge or throw stuff at you. As for the minor henchman that join the fight, you will need to take them out, but never let your focus come off Bane. Remember to keep moving and stay away from his punches. After several rounds of stun and punch, he will eventually go down. Don’t even bother trying to hit him unless you stun with the batarang first. The best strategy here is to keep your distance and let him come to you with the charge. Watch for him to shake off the stun, then get out of his way. The batarang will stun him long enough for you to get in a few swings before he starts hitting back, so know when to back down.

When he charges you, throw your batarang at him and then jump out of the way, then run up to him and start hitting. When he’s throwing an object, your only option is to jump out of the way. In this part, Bane will throw stuff at you or charge you. The strategy that works here will be applied several times throughout the game, so pay attention. This is your first big battle to give you a taste of what’s to come. Overall, I thought the game was a little on the easy side, but that didn’t make it any less fun to play and complete.
#BATMAN ARKHAM ASYLUM BANE HOW TO#
You should take the time to go through some of the Challenges involving fighting, because learning how to get the most out of this game’s somewhat unique fighting system will really help you get past the bosses a lot easier. I didn’t use any kind of cheat codes to finish the game, but instead just figured out how to get past each of the big bosses. I recently finished Batman: Arkham Asylum on the PS3 and must admit that it is one of the best games I’ve ever played on that system.
