    Yeah, it looks good.

    I may have to go rent it.

    It looks cool, but I'm not so sure it's a "own-er".

    I can honestly say it is one of the best games I have ever played.

    I had no idea I was going to enjoy it as much as I do

    I don't know man, It's pretty fucking great.
    Last night I played it for like five hours or so, and was only like 4% done with it...

    If you are a video game fan, you'll love it.
    If you are a Batman fan (comics, cartoons, movies) you will love it even more.

    Exactly. On top of that, the further along you get (more hours you put into it), the better the game gets. Reason being, the further along you get = the more gadgets you get :D

    Yeah- I've been playing most of today too. I'm such a geek.
    But I love how it has some of the more hardcore villains in it like Bane, Zassez, Killer Croc and (of course) Joker. And left out some of the sillier ones like the Penguin (so far anyway).

    BTW- anyone else find Clayface yet? :D

    So I went to Blockbuster to rent it and they were sold out. Doh!

    So I went to Target and bought the damn thing. :lol:

    About 45 mins in and I gotta say...this game kicks ass!


    I'm glad it's a long game too. I hate it when you get a game, and beat it in 3 hours.

    Well, I know what my night is going to consist of! :lol::D

    Apparently the game set a world record for 'Most Critically Acclaimed Superhero Game Ever'. So I'm guessing it's good and that I should go out and buy it.

    Good story, good graphics, amazing sound (5.1 a must!), good controls, great voice overs...

    All around a really good game.




    Spoiler below!!! Stop here if you don't want to see it...



























    The whole morgue scene with the Scarecrow was bad-ass!!! Wow! I don't do drugs anymore, but if I was stoned and that came up, it would have freaked me out!!! :lol:

    Do games still come out without surround sound?

    I don't believe so.

    I just think the sound/audio in this game is superb.

    The voice acting in this game is awesome. Mark Hamill does a great job as The Joker

    If a man speaks in a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

    He was the Joker from the animated series. I think Batman is the same voice too. Amazing
