How to unlock the Bomb Squad achievement

    Once you take control of Batman for the second time, you'll need to find and defuse a series of bombs.

    I'm not sure if this will work for other people or I just got lucky but just before the final bomb (The one you need to move the electric platform for), you can reload your last checkpoint, this resets the clock at the top to 3 Minutes (You can't let it drop below 2 Minutes for the achievement).

    Once restarted:
    It took me roughly 20 seconds to clear the room of the 4 thugs.
    15 - 20 to move the electric platform and destroy the wall with Gel
    10 - 15 seconds to disable the bomb.

    You should have about 5 to 10 seconds spare depending how quick you do this, The achievement popped as soon as I pressed 'A' to disable the bomb.

    SpinkyMinkyJust unlocked for me with the timer on about 1.45ish, after restarting the 3rd checkpoint. Perhaps this is a glitch?

    tibor bThis unlocked for me after reloading the last checkpoint. Seems to be glitched in more ways than one.

    diseased maniacThanks for the tip on reloading the checkpoint! I would have missed it by a few seconds without it. I wonder if the amount of time on the timer is related to the difficulty level you're playing on...playing on normal difficulty, I got 4 minutes at the checkpoint.
