I know there's already a thread in the Video Game Forum but figured we could use a thread here as well.

I cannot wait to buy this

fun game

Badabing
I've played it 6 hours today. I have to say it's very good. The graphics are detailed and crisp with no sign of shaky animation. The story is interesting and there's a nice balance between action and using Batman's skill set. I'm looking forward to completing the game and replaying to find all the secrets. Plus I got the codes for the 2 bonus downloads.

Badabing has been going on and on about this.

About how he made a batman cape and ran around the house with it.

I can't wait to get this, though I'm not sure when that opportunity will present itself. I know for sure it's going to be one of the most kickass superhero games yet.

Got the special/collector's editon on the first day, and like at the last minute (as it was the last one gamestop had), so I ended up pulling an all-nighter with it the day before yesterday, and most of last night as well.

The end though, without spoiling it... wasn't quite what I expected, but was still an overall worthwhile experience nonetheless, and certainly plan on replaying it soon for the hard mode, Riddler's sideshow puzzles, and what not when I get the chance.
The 40 combo achievement is ridiculous though. erm

Hated every bit of the Killer Croc fight (if you can even call it that), but every other boss battle, I was quite content with.

Ah, me too man. Me too...

What's wrong with the Killer Croc boss battle?

I haven't gotten into the game yet (whoah! WD Bat-Fanboy)

The latest I will be able to play this game will in Christmas....I'm just waiting for the next Halo install.

Yeah. Just watch a video of that part on youtube, and you'll see what we mean.

Me too. Not only was it the most disappointing part of the game, but the most frustrating too (the first time through anyway, but I got more patient when I got that far again as I replayed it, and it became easier).

Still, left a bad taste in my mouth.

Played the demo today. It was neat and the story seems cool, but the fighting seems like it will get old fast.

I'm in love with the demo. I plan on picking up the actual gamne whenever I can become re-employed.

this game is completely amazing...i would have given it more stars if possible...one small detail annoyed me though....listen to the riddler interview tapes...he did he made mention to batman being a crook on one...which was kinda stupid if you ask me...i mean maybe its just me but my first though would have been hes rich...anyway if some of you do not know what im talking about ask i will let you know through pm...i don't wanna say anything about this game to ruin it for anyone else.....but that's pretty much it...at least i can not think of anything else...but as a super hero game i rate it the best ever...as a just a game i rate it the best ever lol

I kinda thought the same thing at first, but there's more to it than meets the eye. You'll probably see what I mean if you try the hardest challenge modes and what not, as there's more to it than just pressing the punch button.

PRAYERRUN
Ok, honestly, I wish this concept was invented a long time ago. I love the idea of this game, and I hope to someday get it.

Wow, that's great! Now I reeeeeeaaaaallllly have to get this game!
