Yeah, I got extra maps with the Robin one(as well as the Iceberg Lounge map from the CE too).

I've heard her costume changes with Batman's, like if you pick the animated outfit for Batman, Catwoman will be in her animated outfit too. But no one knows to get the Long Halloweed one apparently. Not that it would matter at the moment, since the only outfit I have for Batman is Earth One, and that's not it.
Yeah, that works(for Animated).

You don't play those two in the story mode(and Nightwing doesn't appear at all in it), so you can only play them with the TAS costumes in the challenge maps.
ALTHOUGH, in my New Game Plus playthrough, I put on the Batman Animated skin and Robin did appear as his animated self as well in the one cutscene he popped up in. Was pretty cool.

The animated skins are the only alternate outfits Robin and Nightwing have.

No, Robin has a third skin. It's Red Robin. Not sure if Nightwing has anything else or not.

Really? Must just be Nightwing then. The item description on the store only mentions an animated skin.

SD mode. For the PS3 you need to hold own all 4 shoulder buttons and rotate the right stick clockwise. Don't need to get out the sequencer either.

I like Catwoman's combat more than Batman's for some reason. It feels simpler. Even tried a few more of the combat challenges for her. Haven't tried any of the predator maps because Catwoman's predator stuff isn't that great. The targeting for her grapple/whip is really iffy. You have to actually look up at where you want to go most of the time before it will let you climb. The batclaw makes getting up high so much easier.

Well, I had no idea there were security terminals that tell you where the cameras are. I just found one on a roof after having played the game for a couple weeks and never seeing one before.
Also noticed that although Catwoman has her own small set of Riddler trophies to collect, both characters can pick up both types. Presumably so you can 100% the game without Catwoman (since her trophies appear even if she's not installed). However, the Batman trophies in the Catwoman areas are a total fucking pain in the ass to get as Batman, mainly because they require precision dive bomb/pull up control to fly through a narrow hallway without touching the floor. Whereas Catwoman can just crawl on the ceiling.
Some Catwoman trophies are in areas that only Batman can access though, so I'm having to switch between them quite a bit to open the way up as Batman and then go back as Catwoman. It's pointless, because I could just pick them up as Batman, but they're pink and clearly meant for Catwoman and I'm finnicky about that stuff.

You can't pick up the Catwoman ones as Batman(nor can she pick up Bats'). He's only needed to reveal some of them(like blasting a wall or hacking some door and such), then you have to play as her to pick 'em up later.
You pretty much wasted time trying to do borderline impossible feats meant for Catwoman's wall/ceiling crawl. lololol.

Both of them can pick up both, I've done it.

Then your copy is either glitched or your memory is fuzzy. When you try to pick up Catwoman's with Bats, he gets shocked and Riddler goes "lol fuck off, not for you".
Some people are claiming Catwoman can get Bats, though. I'm not entirely sure now if that ever worked for me or not when I used her. But Bats definitely shouldn't be able to get her ones.

Catwoman can definitely pick up Batman's trophies. You can't hook Catwoman's trophies down from ceilings with Batman though, but I'm sure that if there's one on the floor he can pick it up. I remember doing in the museum.

Then maybe that single one was glitched. Batman's not allowed to pick up her trophies nor can he use the batclaw to nab them. If so, it would have made some of my trips getting the rest of them much quicker, but unfortunately, Riddler's a dick.
The most he can do for Catwoman is, as I said before, blow up walls and hack some doors/gates that may have some of her trophies behind them.

Wally Wingert voices The Ridder. Wally Wingert has voiced MODOK from recent Marvel stuff and Renji in Bleach.

He also voiced a certain character in a certain god awful Final Fantasy-related movie that shall not be named.

Getting all 3 medals on the combat challenges seems really easy. As long as you do it on 3 or 4 long combos with good variation you should easily get enough points.
