The game is awesome, and did I mention quite long. I played for about 8 hours now (CoD4 campaign length) and I am only at 33%. Haven't faced Poison Ivy, Killer Croc, or the Joker yet. The game is super awesome.

Yeah, I am in the garden as well.

Also, I tried to pricematch at Wal-Mart but she said I had to have a flyer. I don't know how someone else priced matched with basically the same thing as me (a print out).

I will try again tomorrow at a different one. I pressed "Prnt Screen", it doesn't look photoshopped at all (it isn't), it shows my other tabs, etc.

Wow, 65%? I am at 33% right now in the gardens with 73 of the riddles solved. Lots to go for me.

Hey has anyone had any graphical issues. I was running through the intensive care unit and my game started acting up, like my xbox was broken, eventually the screen went black. Put the disc in and it works now, will try the same part again to see if it acts up.

Edit: Oh nevermind, it is part of the game. LOL *spoiler* It is the third time you are under the influence of the scarecrow formula.

So, when you beat the game, can you continue to explore the island to find all the hidden items?

Now I'm gonna flip the xbox version to bloxkbuster for a whopping $42 credit! Wown what a great start to my day. Good thing I didn't pick it up last night cause I went just now when the store opened and had a dumb blonde girl working the cash.HOLY WOW!!!

Yup, it asks if you want to continue the story and you can wander the island

So you made a false add and they bought it? Hmm.

Technically it was a mistake on Future Shops website. Frankly I'm shocked they honoured it ... Dell has done this before and all I got was a friendly email informing me I was SOL.

Ahh thanks, I'm glad I didn't jump on my ethical soap box. All the power to MissKat then I suppose.

Usually Futureshop catches the online errors but sometimes if you are EXTREMELY lucky, you can get it.

At one point recently they had prices like $150 off a bunch of things on the website by accident, most had their orders cancelled but some people got them before they were caught.

I apologized. But if you want to still be offended that's on you.
