Response To: Poetic (Memphis, TN) Review

Great Game but in response to review by Poetic (Memphis, TN) Batman is a DC comics title not Marvel Comics!

Only for Batman sake and "fear" system's sake

I will be frank, this game sukes, I don't know why I bought this piece of crap.

They say this game is good and I am telling you it is nonsense. The graphics are AWFUL and I was surprised to see so many people appreciated it, I wonder if they know what they are talking about. The character models are AWFUL, they look like they were made to fit PS1 with no decent details at all! The character movements just FAKE, and the game RARELY apply the law of physics, and when I was playing the game I asked myself did they really have motion capture or not, because it seems the character is like puppet controled by invisible lines.

The overall game experience of 1st time is all right, but the game is not worth to play several times through as there is only one route or method can be used to go through levels, even in 1st time, if you get used to the game very quick like me, you will simply be bored of the game. If it was not for the bonus unlockables, I will not finish the game even once.

Another thing is that this game plays REALLY like Splinter Cell and Burn Out(in 2 levels) but it doesn't have the quality (in terms of overall graphics) of these two. The good thing is that it took a step further from these games but still too much alike. To tell you the truth, if it isn't for batman's sake, I would definitely buy Splinter Cell and Burn Out instead of this game.

Ok, on to some good things about this game. The sound track is quite cool and although i wish they used the same score from the movie, the sound effect fits the game quite well.

The game plays like a complementary to the movie that sort of complete the experience from the movie. This is maybe the only reason you should consider if you want to purchase this game.

The game have some movie clips from the movie. This is both pros and cons. The pro is that they made the gaming experience more like a movie experience. The con is that it made you (at least for me) dislike the character models and movements even more.

The controls and maneuverability is quite good, and very easy to get used to.

The fear system is VERY cool, it boosts your batman experience a lot.

To sum up, comparing to Metal Gear Solid 2&3 and Splinter Cell 1-3, Batman Begins (the game) is rubbish. However, if you don't mind at all the negatives I mentioned, and you are a fan of batman, then this game is for you.

THIS GAME IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOO COOL!!!!!!!

While I was a little on the uneasy side about buying this game I think that it is one of the best games I have yet to buy. While playing you notice similarities to Splinter Cell but Batman just does it do much better. As far as the graphics are concerned...WOW!

BEST BATMAN GAME EVER!!!

I am a HUGE fan of the Splinter Cell series and I was quite blown away when I saw this is similar to that.

Batman is one of my favorite Marvel Comic heros and I really enjoy playing this game. Just like Roger Ebert said about the movie, they got this game "....right this time..."

I give this game Two Joysticks Way Up!!

THE BATMAN MEETS SAM FISHER

Batman Begins is a phenominal film and the video game is also very cool. The thing that really jumped out me while playing this game, is that it is ramarkably similar to the Splinter Cell Series. That is because the Splinter Cell designer team also created this game. This is of course a good thing, most of the time anyways. First off the graphics are great, just like in Spinter Cell, the lighting is awesome and the characters look real, along with the backgrounds. Also like Splinter, STEALTH is your main weapon. This is pretty cool, especially since Batman uses stealth but also because very few games revolve around stealth and it is pretty fun as opposed to just running around hitting people. However, I can't help but think that this game should have been more like the Spiderman 2 video game. In Spidey2 you get to explore the whole city and LOOK for bad guys to stop and beat up. Of course this game is better as a 'level game' as opposed to free roam because moving as Spidey is fun and Batman really just walks most of the time with the occasional flying. Anyway, I think that the way it is here is great but it would be better if it were more random, you know YOU find enemies instead of following a mostly linear path to them. Whatever! Great Game nonetheless! Peace to Iraq and impeach Bush! Buy this game now or wait until you've rented it first and be sure to see the movie, it is incredible!

a nicely made movie-based game

This game is a very good complementary for the movie. If you watched the movie, the game can make you understand more about the movie and the Batman. The graphics are very good, the movement of batman simulates the movie counterpart closely. A very grabbing game. It is not a traditional action game or RPG, etc. It is like "ICO"+"Rachet & Clank" to some extend. You have to use your head to figure out the correct way to move on and you have to fight of 3 or 4 people at the some time.

The only cons I found, (probably only for some of people), is that some one may find this game too easy. There are lots of hints given during the game.
