For Xploder or those with CFW only. I've already removed my PARAM.SFO files from the rars.
As usual, take your own savegame, and use these files to replace and overwrite your saves.

I want to give something back to the community. The 100% Plat save for Arkham City gives you many of the trophies, but I had to get all the 400 Riddler items in order to get the Riddler Hostage trophies. In my normal playthrough before I started preserving my saves, I had already rescued up to the 3rd hostage, so I only have saves for the 4th, 5th, and final showdown with the Riddler. Thanks to bigbow & joelito for contributing earlier Riddler Hostage saves.

Just load up each save. You will be at the Riddler hideout already. Complete it, save the hostage, and pop the trophy. If you have trouble with any of the hideouts, You must login or register to view this content. has a comprehensive guide.

I already did 11 of the 12 months for you. All you need is the last story from Christmas Day. Go to your PS3 settings, manually change the date to December 25 (any year is fine, I used 2012), and start this save. You'll be right outside the Solomon Wayne Courthouse where you met Two-Face. Go downstairs to the basement, talk to Calendar Man inside his cell, and the bronze trophy will pop.

This save has 7 trophies primed and ready for you. Most of the side missions have map markers, and are very obvious to find. We'll go counter-clockwise around the map.

  1. Gotham Base Jumper - The save starts at Wonder Tower. Grapple to the top, then jump off and glide for 1 minute for the trophy.
  2. AR Knight - The last AR1 is in the Industrial District. See the spoiler tag below for a video if you need help.
  3. Broken Toys - Go to the Police Station. Defeat the thugs with Bane, then destroy the Titan containers for the trophy.
  4. Mystery Stalker - Go to "Location Revealed by Symbols", by the Church. Scan the symbol, listen to Azrael, done.
  5. Serial Killer - Go to the "Identity Thief Hideout", just East of the Courthouse. Just go in, watch the cutscene, and done.
  6. Fully Loaded - If you did these in order, you should now have enough XP to buy the last upgrade for Batman. If not, beat up a few random thugs for some XP. Buy the Combat Armor v4 in the menu, and the trophy pops.
  7. Mastermind - This save also is at the 2nd riddler hostage. If you need it, his next victim is in Amusement Mile.

After you done with Forensic Expert trophy, then you will be told to go to 3 different spots to look for a PDA with the information on his hits. You will have 4 minutes to race to the next location and save Jack Ryder before he dies. Then you have to sneak up on Deadshot and kill him. He has 1 shot 1 kill so use cover while he is facing you (you can tell by his laser sight on his eye) then move while he is facing away, until you make it to his platform, then sneak under him, and attack with a silent execution.

This save has 39/40 Catwoman Riddler trophies, and the last one is right near the savepoint. The save also has 15/16 Jewels recovered. Turn on Catwoman vision to spot the last guy glowing orange near the savepoint. Knock him out and finish the mission for the silver trophy. I don't know if Xploder is region specific with DLC, but this is from a US save.

Hey, you need to delete 2 files from your ORGINAL SAVE which are:

1. PARAM.PDF
2. PAYLOAD

Then simply copy/drag the same files above from the game save you download off this forum to your orginal save.
Finally put it through Xploder the usual way and your good to go!!
