Take your mother with you too

It's Mother's Day tomorrow for you guys in the states. A day to simply show your mum (mom) how much you love and appreciate her for the millions of things wonderful mothers of the world do for us throughout our lives. For Batman: Arkham City players, make sure you, or even your gaming mum, pay The Calendar Man a visit in the city tomorrow and enjoy one of 12 murderous dates you need to go on with the man to chip away at this achievement:

Batman: Arkham City Storyteller The Storyteller achievement in Batman: Arkham City worth 26 pointsHave 12 murderous dates with Calendar Man


If you really want to, you can just pop this achievement offline by not connecting to Xbox LIVE and adjusting your consoles dates before paying The Calendar Man 12 seperate visits.

For those remaining online, don't forget to dress for the occasion tomorrow, May 13th.

I suppose if you wanted, you could get 11 non-Mother's Day visits and then connect to Live tomorrow for the achievement and timestamp? I don't have the game so I don't know, but it might work.

Everyone should be vigilant tomorrow, god knows how he'll strike this time.

One of these days I'll get my PC version installed and start doing these. The time-changing method is annoying as hell on PC though, but not too bad.

See look what would happen if console games required internet connection. We'd actually have to worry about playing Arkham city on all these dates.
