For fans of the Dini/Timms animated "BATMAN", this game will be a lot of fun as it plays like a lost episode of the series. All of the dark, gritty atmosphere of the show has been well captured and rendered in 3-D. Voice actors from the series reprise their roles and the story that backs the game is well written. As immersive entertainment, the game works. As a video game in its own right...well...there are a few problems. Graphics and sound are both top notch. The difficulty is in the controls and camera. Video game Batman is not as graceful as a gamer would hope and the inability to control the camera without accessing the "Free Look" option in the 1st person menu makes precise movements difficult and leads to a sense of being easily confused as to where exactly you are. This, as we all know, can be fatal in a place like Gotham City. If you take your time, though, you can get the job done (you don't seem to be penalized often for doing things slowly and deliberately). The game features hand-to-hand combat, boss duels, and driving elements as well, all of which are adequate and generally fun. Overall, I think its safe to say that this game will appeal most strongly to Batman fans: others will probably feel that this is a well designed, unique looking but average platformer with 1st person and vehicle elements added.

For Batman fans.

This game is great for any fan of Batman. The graphics are impressive, the animations are original and the story is great. At times you feel like you are actually watching the Batman animated series. The voiceovers are all original. (Kevin Conroy, Mark Hamill etc.) The soundtrack is also impressive. The only shortcomming of the game is that the gameplay lacks a little bit, but the story and graphics make up for it. I enjoyed this game and I feel that any Batman fan would do the same.

Awesome Game, Well Worth Taking A Look At !

This game is a lot of fun. Batman has over 500 moves. The fighting system is great. There is a 1st person mode to use your gadgets with. The sound is good. There are different game modes like the batmobile batplane and free fall fighting. It is very long with a deep un raveling story. I gave it 4 stars because the graphics can get a little fuzzy but they aren't bad. Very good game.

Batman Has "Vegeance" on poor imitation Superhero games.

Over the years I have seen The Bat appear in several different formats of Video games- but speaking from experience, this has got to be the finest Batman game ever produced. From the sweeping detail of the Animation, to the voices of the actors from the animated series, to the Danny Elfman inspired Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack, and, most importantly, a storyline that could have come straight from an animated episode- this game has it all. And don't forgat the Gadgets! The Batmobile! The Batplane!
This solo based adventure will require you to "become" Batman in order to solve a ongoing Joker case. You must use more than weapons and fists to get through this one- It will take brains! If you are a B:TAS fan, do your self a favor... Pick this one up immediatly!!

A game you should consider

This game does an excellent job delivering a taste of the batman mythos, especially through the styllized lens of the cartoon series. It's definitely not the best action game out right now for the PS2 (but then it's up against the dual demigods Devil May Cry and Metal Gear Solid 2) but it's worth a look if you're an action fan or a batman fan.

This game is ok

This game only takes five hours to beat at the most. The villians are cool but the trenchmen are pretty much all the same. Most of the weapons can only be picked up in certain leves. Overal I think it is a little short but really fun.

AWSOME

As cool as the PS2 is, ive had a difficult time finding games that keep me hooked. The EA sports games always rule, but ive had a hard time with the action/adventure games.....that changed with Batman: vengence.....first of all, im a total comic geek, so i was attracted to this game for obvious reasons, however the gameplay is so awesome. You are the dark knight, and you have all of his weapons/gadgets at your disposal. There are many levels ( ive only beaten 6) in which you have to fight a myriad of villians from batman's rogue gallery, all complete with thugs to try to stop you before you get to the level boss....gameplay is fluid, fast, and easy to control. You get to take command of the batmobile, batplane, ect....one of the coolest features, is when you use your batarangs, bat grapple ect, the game kicks into first person view, giving the game two unique perspectives. the only reason why it dose'nt get 5 stars is i rarely give a game that mark ( madden2002, tony hawk ect) but if your looking for a cool action/adventure game for the PS2, this is a good one
