same as some other posts... except, after "patiently" waiting for the update i get this in a pop-up notepad window as i watch the game "go away":

i had to reinstall then mines worked but i installed from a megaupload download not from updating threw live
I'm having exactly the same problem. I'm running Vista 32bit on a Dell XPS M1730. Using Norton Internet Security 2009 and I believe I have opened all the GFWL ports. I'm connecting wirelessly through a D-Link DIR-825 router, that has the GFWL ports forwarded. I've been trying to get this game running and updated for about two days now and it's getting pretty frustrating, but I'm a big enough Batman dork that I don't want to give up.
yeh.. so i DL'ed the manual patch concurrently, and it seems to have installed ok... i need to restart after i update NVidia drivers. in the rar file i DL'ed this was in the readme... if it helps:
Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4
2.4 Firewall and Required Ports
When you Install Batman: Arkham Asylum the installation process will automatically add the game to the list of exceptions for Windows Firewall. This is required to allow the user full access to Games For Windows - LIVE.
The following ports are required to be opened to use Games For Windows – LIVE.
* TCP port 80 (Internet)
* TCP port 443 (Sign In)
* TCP port 3074 (Content Download)
To get the most up to date list of ports required for Games for Windows - LIVE go to http://www.gamesforwindows.com/en-US/Support/Pages/internetConnectionIssues.aspx.
anyway... i have a good feeling about the manual update... turns out that script i posted is a dll file in the update (_Setup.dll) :/
How did the manual update workout? I just sextuple checked my open ports/port forwarding, then cleared the LIVE download cache and tried again, same effing problem. I really wanted to go through LIVE to update the game, but given all the problems we are all having with Microsoft's system, I'll try the manual update. I've read a bunch of posts and the Microsoft people really like to pawn off all the problems on users' systems. I can see the legitimacy of that, but man if this many people are having problems, maybe Microsoft ought to invest some more capital in making their programs stable.
manual update worked fine. all is well so far. no fancy in-game overlays with defunct progress bars :p
yeh... while it is tough to diagnose each situation for all the many varibales that exist from computer to computer, you have to wonder why DL'ing the file via Firefox and installing it makes a difference vs Windows Live update.... well, not really, but you know :p
Windows: "reboot 3 times to fix issues"
Where can I find the manual patch?? This is freaking ridiculous...$50 for a game that won't patch correctly? I have tried patching with my firewall off, let it sit for 2 hrs "after patching" and it still does nothing
google: "batman update v1.1"
the one i got was named baa_patch_1.rar at megaupload. but i just checked and its "gone"... maybe renamed? dunno... but i see them all over when searching above term
If the download did not crash, (aka actual error message came up) you could use the method in this thread to see if it is still downloading: http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/t/7608.aspx
