Holy Face-Palm Batman

[kiraan]

I just played through Batman: Arkham Asylum over the weekend. Usually takes me a couple weeks to finish a game like that, but it was so fun I gorged on it, playing in huge 2 and 3 hour chunks.

I had to do a major face-palm upon completing the game, as I didn't notice until the final boss fight that I had been using the wrong button for "counter" throughout the entire game. It got so frustrating that I actually started moving AWAY from the counter indicator, since I'd try to attack instead of counter, which usually resulted in my being stunned and having the combo chain broken. Given that I had a blast playing the game, I can only wonder how much more fun it would've been to be using counter effectively as designed.

So, I fail.
