    looks amazing, if the story is good i think i will pick it up. the people he was fighting looked incredibly stupid. i mean when he swung from place to place they shoulda seen him.

    The gameplay looks impressive (like variety of approaches). The graphics are fine.. execpt when looking batman on the front... looks weird. I guess I will try it once it's out.

    Yea you are probably right, however; I still think this game will deliver alot... and I'ts dark and gritty, you can drop people from heights, elevator shafts and such lol... theres hostage situations where the joker will actually kill the people if you cant make it... so I dont really think theres a need for blood and gore

    Yea I know dude I have hated all those movie licensed games.... This one is not however at all... this is a free licensed game!!! and it has been in production for a looong time... no rush jobs here, the only influences are the comic books and creative ingenuity my friend :D
