    The best way to get this would be to play the new FREE DLC challenge "Totally Insane" - you fight against an infinite amount of enemies - hence the infinity loop icon on the thumbnail.

    New enemies will drop in constantly, allowing you to chain together some very long combos.

    Just out for the insane patients ("lunatics") who try and jump on your back, they are also able to jump dodge over the top of you, similar to how Batman himself does.

    A Batwoman@ B A R 4 D - Yeah same here I move to fast they don't spawn fast enough I tryed lots of ways to slow down the combos by hitting Y + B when I got up to at least 5 x. Also tryed to evade. Ganna try the Rumble in the Jungle with the Titan see if that will work better.

    pezza888Is "Totally Insane" the same as "Insane Night"? That's the only one I can see on the marketplace

    RenkiThe DLC is still available. I downloaded it straight from my Xbox 360 dashboard on the Arkham Asylum page. You start the DLC in the main menu, "Downloadable Content". It's easy to know which one it is, as it has a infinity symbol next to it. I just unlocked the achievement today with the free DLC.

    NOTE: I think it's best to do this with the Critical Combo Strikes upgrade, once you get to a certain point early in your combo each hit in that combo will count as x2 in your combo meter. Did I mention the word combo?

    This achievement is really about 60% luck and 40% skill. You gotta get lucky enough that the enemies are spread out enough so it doesn't get over-crowded (which my lead to confusion on your part OR it might give Batman an area-of-effect attack where he'll accidentally hit more than one person, which could screw up your flow.)
    Here's how I did it. When you first break into the Arkham Mansion there will be a room full of baddies looking for a paper (it's right after the first room where you have to go into the grate on the ceiling). From your position you can glide kick. Do it. It will scare the rest of them and give you time to plan your moves. Now attack each person in a certain order, preferably a circle, so when you get done with the last person the first one you hit will be getting back up and you can keep going. Good thing is that you have a check point right at the start of this area, so you can restart if you mess up. I got to x70 in this area on Hard.
    Good luck!

    Barad 007I have the critical combo strikes upgrade but how do I get it to work exactly? I've never seen my combo go up in 2's after each hit.. when my combo goes yellow and I start hitting everyoen faster it still only goes up 1x per hit..

    Angel ManFreddyIt's automatic, so I'm not sure what this problem would be. I haven't played this in at least a year, but I believe once you get to x5 in your combo it starts going up in twos (could be wrong). All I can say is make sure you have the upgrade, sorry!

    FEAR PointMan24Does it matter what difficulty you beat the challenges on?

    I got this on the Combat challenge Sewer Bat (Extreme), playing the first round.

    I avoided all advanced moves, sticking solely to attack, stun, counter and evade. The reason is that using takedowns and/or throws negate your critical strike, causing you to miss the mark. When I did a round and culled the herd with two take downs, I ended with a 38x combo, while sticking to my mentioned method I finished with 43x.

    This will take a lot of practise and patience, as well as some luck.

    EDIT: Some people seem to have problems getting this on round 1, but manage to get it on round 2. Unfortunately, I don't have the game anymore to re-visit my solution, so I cannot verify this.

    A Sneaky Sl0thYou going to need luck to get this one as i did the above and didnt use the advance takedowns but i killed every one with a x36

    A BatwomanI don't know why but the first round wasn't working for me so I tried the second round just kicked ass that round got up to 44x combo. Used that Y + B combo I love it and evaded when I needed and didn't spam the X button and watched what they did they do try to throw boxes at you so I moved the align stick as towards the box throwers.

    Thanks for the tip was playing GOTY edition and finally got a 44x combo so if I can do it anyone can just practice and don't get up set keep moving around press Y when needed evade when you feel like they might hit you off guard and use Y + B when you see a yellow streak. Awesome thanks again!
