Amazing game. Lots of gadgets and amazing moves! Wasn't a batman fan before I played this but it's definatly converted me.
One of the best games ever made.....cant wait for the sequel!
Dam good. If you like Batman you'll love this. If you don't then you'll still love it.
Excellent in all departments; graphics, gameplay, story. One down side is there's not many hours of gameplay unless you want to repeat yourself.
Excellent game no complaints what so ever. Controls are easy to get used to, it all fits in well and works well and truly an enjoyable game to play with a great story to it!
What a game!, a must play for anyone! My top game for 2009!

Don't think this has much to keep me playing but to play through to completion over a couple of days was good fun. A must to rent for anyone
