    I honestly hated batman until I reluctantly bought this game out of boredom. I have never been so wrong about something and this game pointed that out to me. The gameplay is fantastic and the story is intriguing.

    I was late to the Batman games (just giving in last month) and I am glad I tried them because now I'm hooked. I am not really a comic book reader and I probably have about as much Batman lore knowledge as anyone who's watched the movies. I learned a lot about the villains in this series as the games give you that info, and it's just fun fighting as Batman! I had a great time with both "Batman: Arkham Asylum" & "Batman: Arkham City" and I really hope there's a third on the way. Good fights, clever puzzles, great voice acting (Mark Hamill really steals the spotlight as The Joker), the graphics and sound are top notch, and while the initial game looks like it will be small (due to it being confined at an asylum) there are outdoor areas and several buildings to explore. I highly recommend giving these games a try.

    Rocksteady handles one of DC Comics' biggest franchise with excellence and makes it fun. The graphics are unbelievable, the gameplay is simple yet complex. They really show you what being Batman is all about

    Finally got around to picking up this game and I am having a blast with it. The Batman avatar is a little stiff in his movements, and I would rather see a more nimble/fluid character like the comics, but it's still fun.

    I've been a gamer for a long time now, although not a die-hard core gamer that has to have everything. I just recently bought an XBox 360 after lots of research. And the reason I bought it was because of this game. I was at the store looking for some PS2 games and saw this advertised with trailers. I was blown away by the look of it. So now I have the GOTY edition, and it is incredible. I've only played it through once, on the easy level, but it was tremendously fun and brought Batman to a new light for me. I've been a comic book and superhero fan for as long as I've been a gamer, but I've never been a big Batfan. This changes that however. You can fight it out, throw batarangs, use grapples, talk to Oracle, climb up on roofs, into ceilings and ventilation systems, and stalk the bad guys. You can even do the ultra cool crash through the ceiling onto the unsuspecting bad guys! Adding Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill to the voice casting was just the icing on the cake for me. Hands down, the best video game I've ever played, on any system. You become Batman, and do all of the cool stuff he is known for. Oh, and no Robin!

    Beat the initial game in about a Month, but there is tons more to go back and do to complete it 100%. It's difficult and really keeps you going. I recommend it.
