I understand everything carries over from the first play through. My question is if I go back and play in the regular game and unlock more riddle trophies and side missions do they get unlocked in new game plus simultaneously ?

Yes this seems to be the case from what I have heard. I was all set to do this, but New+ also forced you into dropping counter notifications and such and I'll readily admit that the combat sometimes gets me. I wish I was better at it but I'm not so so far, no New Game + for me.

@Crash_Happy: thanks! yea i don't mind new game plus but for running around trying to get riddles i rather have those indicators

After doing all the challenges in Arkham Asylum combat has become incredibly easy for me, sometimes I even manage to pull off multiple counters in a row before I even see them start to punch because I'm so used to their patterns.

Playing the challenges makes you better at being Batman without you even noticing. It's scary.

@AngeTheDude: @N7: Yeah I'm going to do some challenges, just for the funnsies though rather than strictly 'practice'. Wasn't there going to be some Robin or Nightwing dlc? I fancy trying them out.
