Not sure if this would be considered a spoiler, but I need help getting past a certain point in the game:

So, haven't really had any issues going through the game until now. I'm in the Botanical Gardens where two Dr's. are in cages, suspended over a pit. The goal is to take out the operator who has the control to drop the cage before anyone sees me. I found the vent that takes me above the action, but if I climb down, I'm seen. If I glide kick down, I'm seen. How do I get past this area????

that part is easy mate.

just get as high up as possible via vents and the grapple then glide over to the far side and run around till you find another vent that is near the control room and voila...sorry for this **** poor explanation, but there isn't anything too it.

You missed out on the best deal a few weeks ago Pheee. The Hut had preorders for ?23 or something.

They are still the best price, but it's now up at ?35. Same story with Shopto.

?22.:p :p

I went out to buy the game today and the PS3 version was sold out everywhere. One store had a bunch of X360 copies remaining, but the PS3 version was nowhere to be seen. :(

Good timing on the release date with the Slim, it seems nearly everyone who picks up a Slim buys Batman :laugh:

Damit. I am already stuck. :p What do I do with that ventilation duct with the security screws? I tried my baterang, but no go.

Figured it out. :p nvm.

@Audio, yeah I went to Toys 'R' Us and the PS3 was sold out and they had a couple of X360's left though. So I had to go to BB and got it there and they had a couple for each console.

I thoroughly enjoyed the demo. The combat was fantastic and the stealthy elements were perfectly implemented. The engine brings great graphics, animations, and so on and so forth.

I will definitely pick it up sometime down the road.

Yeah, that's exactly what I thought but the slim PS3 hasn't been released yet in Canada. At least, as far as I'm aware. The "estimated" release date is August 26th so I'm going to backup my 160GB PS3, re-pack it, and return it to the store I bought it from (just in case any slim PS3s arrived). Gotta love the 30-day return policy. I'll have a better looking PS3 plus $100 in my pocket. And Batman: Arkham Asylum for $38.89CAD. Oh, the joy! :turned:

did you get it @ Best Buy? Cause I did.. and I didn't get the free guide. Cause they said they had preorders to fill .. like wtf. anyway.. the dude told me to check by the end of the week. Best Buy will still honor the free guide. at least that's what he said -.- ugh. Anyway.. I"m having fun playing this. on several occasions I got stuck. I kept going back and forth.. soo frustrating.. then I see a door (which is soo damn concealed cause it blends soo well with the damn background.. ) I was like god damnit. lol.

Yeah, I think at the time I was not going to get it or something, I do kick myself a little now for not ordering and cancelling at some point if not wanted.

Will see if I resist temptation or not.

    • AMD confirms 26.6.2 FSR driver breaks on many Windows PCs

      By WaltC · Posted

      I've owned nothing but ATi/AMD GPUs since 2002, after my last nVidia GPU in 2001 (3dfx before that), IIRC, and in all of that time I recall getting this error maybe once, certainly no more than twice. Despite all the scuttlebutt as to how poor AMD drivers are supposed to be that has certainly not been my experience at all... Usually it has been a configuration problem of some kind. Then again, since we're dealing with OS versions that are EOL, it could easily be an OS version discrepancy. It's still weird to think that Win11 has been officially out for more than five years!
    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it

      By WaltC · Posted

      AI will never be the jobs panacea some companies fantasize about today. Oracle is likely using it as an excuse, which we will see a lot of companies doing, I'm certain. They love their "plausible" excuses for their downturns. A couple of weeks ago my wife asked me to call Krogers about some discrepancy in a online grocery order, and it will be the last time either of us does that. I'll just do emails with humans from now on... The AI experience was horrible--the obviously recorded voice started asking a bunch of questions about our orders six months prior(!) and saying, "Is this in reference to your order on January 6, for $****?" You say "No!" and immediately the next question is "Is this in reference to your order on January 29th, for $****?" again, I answered "No!"--and it was incredible--on and on it went like that for fully 20 minutes until we finally got to the present, and only then was I put through to a human with authentic intelligence... I wondered why on Earth the idiot AI didn't start with the most recent orders and work back from there, as it was something anyone with a functioning brain would have done. And why didn't the AI have enough sense to ask me what the problem was in the first place? It didn't take too much deduction to understand that the goal of this "AI" was to cause the person on the phone to hang up in disgust, with no resolution of the problem. That begs another question: why pay for a tool-free problem line if the goal is to avoid solving your customer's problems?... Fortunately, Krogers does have real humans capable of reading an email and understanding it, and if she sees another situation in the future that's route she or I will take. The online grocery delivery service from Krogers has been great, over all, but their AI truly sucks.

      AI is the justification that company administrators use to lay people off; it is not the end all, be all touted in the media (many of whom can't tell a microchip from a potato chip). Greed is main driving factor behind its adoption; the other is remaining relevant in the face of competition from other entities.

    • Firefox 152.0.2 is out with fixes for performance, translation, and cloud storage services

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Firefox 152.0.2 is out with fixes for performance, translation, and cloud storage services by Taras Buria A new bug-fixing update is now rolling out to Firefox users in the Release Channel. Less than a week ago, Mozilla fixed crashes on Intel Raptor Lake processors with version 152.0.1. Now, Mozilla has prepared yet another set of fixes that address problems with localization, playback issues of certain MP4 files, and performance issues on website that perform various encryption operations at once. Here is the full changelog: Firefox 152.0.2 is now available for download from Mozilla's FTP. Existing installations will get the update over the next several hours. The latest version will also be available soon on the official website, the Microsoft Store, and Neowin's Software page. You can find Firefox 152.0.2 release notes in the official documentation. In case you missed it, Mozilla released Firefox 152 earlier this month. The latest feature update brought reworked settings with a more streamlined user interface, JPEG XL support, new features for Private mode, a new way to mute a tab (just type "mute" in the address bar), and many more. You can find the complete changelog here. In other Firefox news, Mozilla recently published its roadmap, where the company detailed the upcoming Nova redesign and other features it plans to implement. Mozilla wants to make the new user interface easier to navigate and more modern, with a heavy focus on its privacy tools, such as its built-in VPN. If you are curious, you can already enable the new UI as described here.
