How long is Arkham Asylum?

hey guys, wondering if any of you know how long approx it would take to run through the single player (just the story mission) of Batman: Arkham Asylum. I really wouldn't bother going all over the place looking for every single riddle, and prob just solve the ones that cross my path, but do any of you know about how long the game is supposed to be?

Pretty darn long. Just like how a game should be.

its up to you how long it is. Since the game isnt linear and your able to free roam any where you please....you can easily get around 20-40 hours first play through. Its more of a zelda / metriod / bioshock type of game.

12 hours

If you play it on hard it will take a lot longer! I'm about 8 hours into it and it only says 20% I've been dying A LOT though. You don't get the counter attack alert in hard mode... I would suggest playing it on hard the first time through to get the most out of the game ;)

Its a long game im 5 hours in and only 10% completed.

It's like 15-20 hours. Even more if you collect everything.

It took me about 10 hours to complete. I'm now going back for all the Riddler stuff.Flame_Blade88

[QUOTE="Flame_Blade88"][QUOTE="Ultrabeatdown55"]Question about that. After you beat it, can you go back into the game and just free roam? Or do you have to start new game and it will keep the Riddler challenges?Ultrabeatdown55

[QUOTE="Ultrabeatdown55"][QUOTE="Flame_Blade88"] There is no aftermath. What happens is after you return to the menu screen after the credits, select Continue Story, it'll bring you right outside the building before the last boss fight. From there you can go anywhere on the island. There are no more enemies, mostly empty buildings besides the people you rescued. Cheesehead9099

See it now? lol

It's as long as you want it to be. If you just don't give a damn about the Riddler's challenges or don't do much exploring your first play through, it shouldn't take to long for you to beat.

I, on the other hand, am trying to complete allof Mr. Riddler's challenges and do a bit of exploring around Arkham. . . and I don't think I am half way done yet. (With the main storyline.)
