Fantastic, exactly, exactly, EXACTLY what I felt in this game. One of the first reviews where I had little difference in opinion. Fabu.

And who the hell was the guy's head who popped down when he said "Things to grapple on". I've never figured that out.

 

[Blastcage]

They never need Batman during the day because it's always night time in Gotham.

Seriously.

 

[mannaroth]

"THE FUCKING START BUTTON!!" Ha that wqas really funny I'm going to buy this game soon.

 

[Rickmanguy]

There's something hilarious about the little Batman stick figure. I just love the way it looks.

Good to know Arkham Asylum is worth it, at least.

 

[IndieRocker]

Great review I want some bat anti-thing spray

 

[benjtfell]

Twas a great review but i do wish he said more about the amazing scarecrow bits.

 

[frankie_fury]

Heh...."DROSS FIGHTS" Spot on Sir!

 

[PS2MAN]

Holy crap nice riddle. How would u signal Batman during the day!

 

[Blastcage]

I've been refreshing every minute for an hour waiting for this to be put on...hurry my life is complete again.

They're on every Wednesday at 5pm GMT pretty much exactly.

 

[sune26]

Hmm wel i might consider buying it now since it seems he liked it

 

[Spirultima]

He is right, the gameplay is quite basic, and the enemies look good and are better characterised then then even batman. Also i also didn't like the fight with killer croc, i was hoping i would go King Kong and break his jaw in half.

 

[sirdanrhodes]

Good review, average game.

 

[Blastcage]

Twas a great review but i do wish he said more about the amazing scarecrow bits.

Would have defeated the point in the review ehen he explained that his purpose was to spew (not unreasonable) bile and nought else.

 

[oecumenix]

Well I didn't expect a rapturous reception, but for Yahtzee that's a pretty damn good review. And, as always, pretty much on the money.

I'd never thought about the bat-light thing before, but presumably Gotham villains work mostly at night (as real-life villains do).

 

[gcar]

I think this warrants a purchase. £37 in asda, bargain

 

[Neo Kojiro]

Obviously, when they need him during the day, they do Bat-Semaphore.

 

[rorymclean12]

good review i was planing on getting that batman game anyway but by the sounds of it i made the right choice

And who the hell was the guy's head who popped down when he said "Things to grapple on". I've never figured that out.

Seconding this, I have no idea who the guy is :U

 

[Armored Prayer]

This makes me want to get it now.

Great review.
