Some levels are incredibly difficult without taking the heeded advice, though this could be seen as adding additional challenge if you wanted to try this. The rule of thumb is to use common sense and take the gadgets that the game suggests, such as the gas mask for the Scarecrow level. These are enjoyable in any sense, but fans of the show will be in for a treat here! Dialogue is similar to the way the show presents itself, and on more than one occasion I could hear the voice actors as I read the lines! After the exposition we are sent to a menu-based Batcave in order to equip ourselves for the fight to come. This game makes you feel more like Batman than any game before the Arkham series!Īs for the levels themselves, they begin with a bit of setup in the form of conversations between The Batman and his partners in crime fighting. No gameplay fatigue here!īatman controls almost perfectly, with the ability to roll, wall jump, and even throw a disarming batarang at gun-wielding goons! I also love how you can use the bat grapple at any time, and it even combos with other moves. Every level operates around its own individual premise, ensuring that the game remains fresh throughout the entire experience. While there are remnants of that here, it is far from the main focus.

If the Ninja Turtles was what I watched for fun, then Batman TAS was what I looked to for drama.īut I’m not here to talk about the show. Heck, the intro alone was better than most shows that were on at the time! And I always loved how the show never treated us like we were immature. There was nothing like getting home from school and tuning into another one of the Dark Knight’s superbly written adventures. My childhood would have been a lesser one without you.
