Can you really express Batman with numbers? It seems that you can in Arkham City.
The full list of Xbox 360 achievements – and presumably the list of PS3 trophies as well – for Batman: Arkham City has found its way online, revealing exactly what players will need to do to earn the game’s full thousand points. It goes without saying that if you want to go into Arkham City with as little foreknowledge as possible, you should avoid this list like the plague.
The list does contain some spoilers, but it’s actually not as bad as you might think. Most of the descriptions are pretty vague, and a lot of the characters and situations hinted at have already appeared in trailers and screenshots, or been mentioned in interviews. If you’re ok with some more minor spoilers, then you can read on with impunity.
As well as the story awards – which I’m obviously not going to talk about – there are points available for fairly typical gameplay stuff, like doing well in the challenge maps, or getting a really long combo. The full list is below; read it at your own peril.
