Anyone got a review for Batman?

Really fucking bad.

Bad:

Animation
Load times
Fighting
"puzzles?"
Interrogation

Good:

movie scenes? who cares?

They have this fear and respect o meter thing which is basically "target something and throw a batarang at it" or "sneak behind someone using the stealth stance (which is really just a crouch)"

The game is just bad. I haven't played catwoman but i bet its alot like this.
 
I've been calling it "Sam Fisher-Price".

It's a decent action game, but way too much hand holding for my tastes. Not much in the way letting you solve problems, everything is laid out for you and tells you exactly what to do and when to do it. Even combat is heavily scripted -- you can jump in the air, hit a button and a mini-cutscene plays of Batman taking out a thug.

It does everything short of giving you an "I win" button.

What was all of this "Best Batman game ever" stuff I read in the "Who has Batman Begins" thread?

All of one person claimed it was the best Batman game and even then, that's not saying much, considering there hasn't been a good Batman game in 15 years.

Yup. Hasn't been a good Batman game since the 16-bit era.
 
What about the Ubisoft ones?

Batman Vengence, avoid like the plaque

Batman Rise of the Shitzu, not terrible, not great, a painfully average beatemup
