How to unlock the Party Pooper achievement in Batman: Arkham Asylum - Definitive Guide

This is not without its challenge if you are playing on Hard. As soon as you're coming out of the tunnel beside the entrance to Arkham West, you'll see four goons outside of a door with a guest list in their hand (after Joker has invited you to the party).

Beat them up and once you go inside, you'll see a small space and about 20 guys, meaning that on hard, you can die quick if surrounded.

I planted three explosives on the ground throughout the room before attacking so that when people moved, most of them were stunned, allowing me to finish 4-5 guys right away. The rest is just about masterful countering, combos and dodging.

you should add to this that if you don't take the opportunity at this point, you'll miss it. Having to play through the game again, to get it. Otherwise, good solution.

It would help if the counter button was actually reliable.. number of times I've pressed it & got hit anyway

Next retry I beat them...
Using the throw each time reaching 5x combo before getting hit helps a lot.. I beat them with only a slither of health remaining..

can you dashboard this if it appears you're going to fail and restart before the battle?

If you "fail" you will die and it will restart you outside

one thing i was looking for in this that might be helpful is that it is after you beat poison ivy (taken from xbox360a).

Definitely plant the explosives on the ground and not the walls as in the video below - the corridor is narrow enough that the blasts will throw back enemies on both sides. Proper spacing between charges will drop all of them - I could only perform 3 ground takedowns before the rest recovered. It's probably a given that most people will reach this point having spent their upgrades on full armor, but make sure you do - you're going to take some hits regardless of how well you do. Watching the video below reassured me that I didn't suck as bad as I thought. This is pretty intense - glad I don't have to do it again.

There's only one opportunity to get this achievement in the game and it's right at the end so make sure that you don't miss it!

Now once you progress to the very end of the game you're invited to a party by Joker, it's the next section of the game after you defeat Poison Ivy, you'll hear him talking about it over the loud speakers and there will be fireworks going off in the sky, you'll need to travel back to "Arkham West", when you get there you'll see there are 4 goons guarding 1 of the entrances, approach them and a short cutscene will play, they'll tell you that you're not allowed in unless you're on the guest list, after a few moments he'll find your name on the list and let you in, you'll find yourself in a corridor full of goons that are applauding you.

Now this is where you get the achievement and like I've already said, you can miss this, so make sure you don't!

All you have to do is beat up all of the goons that are stood around applauding you, it's a good idea to use your explosion gel on the walls a little to help you thin the herd because once you attack one they'll all come after you.

Once you've incapacitated the last enemy the achievement will unlock.

Getting the party pooper achievement on Hard was a real challenge. If you are having a difficult time I suggest you try the following method:

1. Like Timeless Magic above says, plant the 3 exposives on the ground before initiating the fight. That will allow you to get about 4-5 free ground knockouts.

2. Instead of trying to counter, combo and dodge, I suggest you just counter. Stand in the middle and wait for them to strike you and then counter, one after another. It'll be tempting to land some strikes after the counter but don't. There are enough enemies that you can get your combo meter up to 5 just by countering and then you can unleash a ground takedown for an easy knockout. Just be ready to counter if a guy tries to take a cheap shot on you while you're getting up. If nobody attacks, your combo meter will reset but that's okay. Just continue countering and doing ground takedowns when the times right.

3. When you get to about 6-8 guys left, then you can probably get back to the counter, combo, dodge method because it's a little more managable.

After stuggling at this part for about 20 minutes, I did this method and I was able to get through it without any trouble at all.

Hope this helps. Good luck

Great solution! I was really struggling with this. I used your method and didn't get hit once. Thanks

Here's what I did to bag myself the achievement on Hard Difficulty:

1. Plant explosives along the centre of the corridor. If done correctly you should be able to knockdown all of the goons simultaneously, allowing you to safely get in 3 ground takedowns.

2. The remaining goons will surround you leaving you vulnerable to cheap shots so you will need to mash the evade button until you reach either end of the corridor allowing you to get in a few strikes safely.

3. Repeat step 2 until you are no longer in such a vulnerable position and you feel as though you can eliminate the few remaining animated goons in your own style.

Note: Spamming the counter button and doing nothing else will not you get you anywhere, as it does not actually lower the enemies health.

Hope this helps somewhat!

If you want to get this achievement on Hard, then follow the above. However, the achievement will unlock if you are playing any difficulty (I unlocked this while playing easy). The advice above works well especially the pre-trapping the place with explosives to easily take 3 of the guys down.

Other than that it was a lot of vaulting over enemies, stunning, batclawing, triple batrang throwing (after x2 combo), and generally taking every available cheap shot to build up a combo count. Once you hit x8 (or x5 if you unlocked the ability), start using the instant takedown (Y+B) when available to slowly clear the floor (Batman is invincible when performing this move).

No matter what after the initial 3 quick takedowns, do not attempt to ground takedown anyone. Even on easy it is an open invitation to be sucker punched by someone.

This is a missable achievement so if you want it, there is only one chance per playthrough.

When you enter the visitor center, plant three explosives on the ground in front of a couple of goons. Detonate them and run over for a few knock outs, thinning out the ranks of resistance.

Then simply wait for someone to take a shot at you, hitting (Y) counter and thow in a few punches (X). Every now and then you will get a critical strike or two.

Keep this up and eventually you will have defeated all the enemies in the room. Achievement unlocks.

Tried to follow a few of the pointers mentioned earlier but didnt see the (Y) counter building up any combos... Completed the achievement in under 10 minutes (on my third try for it) using this methos playing on Normal.

If you want to use this section of the game for Freeflow Combe x40 or Freeflow Perfection, I recomend using the challange/DLC modes for that instead where you can more easily control the enemies.

Good luck!

This achievement is for killing all of the guys inside of the hallway of the party building.

First of all, I disposed of the four guys outside, they should be no problem if you use explosive gel to knock them down for some easy KO's.

Once inside it is time to prepare. Lay down 3 explosive gel, evenly spaced in the middle of the room (I had the auto-explosive gel upgrade but this will still work without) then, I stood at the end of 1 line of guys and used the line launcher to launch to the other end of the line of guys.

Batman will launch on the line, kicking in the faces of everyone in that lines, this will cause everyone to go crazy, at which time you should blow up your explosive gel, knocking pretty much everyone to the floor. Kill as many guys as possible whilst they are on the floor, then, use your attacks, countering and batarang skills to skillfuly kill the rest of the guys.

At the end of the game when joker invites you to the Party at the Visitors Center in the end game portion, there will be 4 guys standing outside and one will have a guest list, beat all of these up and then head inside, then beat up everyone in the hallway and the trophy will unlock.

Note: This might be a bit difficult to do on hard as there is about 20 guys in here, so i would suggest countering them all until you only have 5 or 6 left.

To earn this trophy that's called "Party Pooper", you will need to break up the party near the end of the game by defeating twenty thugs at the Visitor Center.

After you defeat Poison Ivy, make your way to the Visitor Center. Before entering, you will see four bad guys, including one that announces you as the guest of honor. Take out these thugs in any way you see fit. Make sure all of them are down before going inside.

When you do go in, you will see at least sixteen thugs "celebrating" this "occasion". Before you start the fight, I suggest you put three pieces of explosive gel in between them all, all three down the middle. They will not attack you unless you attack them first, so you'll be OK as you do this.

Once this is done, make your way to the entrance and then set them all off. All of them will be dizzied and this should give you a little time to execute ground takedowns on three-to-five thugs.

Most of them will get back up and it's time for you to fight. Make sure to constantly evade by jumping over them and then hitting them. If a thug happens to try and hit you, counter him by pressing cn_T when lighting bolts appear above their head. Also, it's a good idea to use batarangs and even your ultra claw so that you can have an easier time dealing damage and giving yourself some breathing room.

Once you have knocked out all twenty thugs (again, four on the outside, sixteen on the inside), the trophy should be unlocked. I have provided a video of how this is done and this video comes from Batman Arkham Videos. Credit goes to that channel for creating and uploading the footage.

Have fun and good luck!

This achievement is missable.

You can only unlock this later on when you have to deal with The Joker. You will be summoned to The Jokers party, head over to the visitors center and beat up the goons outside. Once you enter the visitor center do not walk through to the next area. Beat all the enemies in this hallway and the achievement will unlock once you kill the last one.

Missable
On your way to the final confrontation with Joker, you will notice his henchmen wearing party hats, clapping and cheering you on at the entrance. They will not attack you unless you attack them. You need to beat them all up (the first few outside the main door first and then all them inside before moving on) in order to get this trophy. If you do not attack them or miss one, then you will have to play a second game all the way through to the final confrontation to have another go at it.

Note: If you haven’t already done so, this is a great spot to all Freeflow combo trophies (5x, 10x, 20x, 40x and a combo with all batman’s moves.)
