Product Description: Batman Begins explores the origins of the Batman legend and his emergence as a force for good in run-down, crooked Gotham City. You'll have to take the roles of Bruce Wayne and his vigilante alter-ego, the Batman. Use strength, intellect and an arsenal of cutting-edge gadgets to face dangerous villains. Just remember, criminals are superstitious and cowardly -- Batman Begins challenges players to use fear as their ultimate weapon. Tear up the streets and rooftops in the Batmobile, in lightning-fast, no-holds barred vehicular combat Expands on the story introduced in the film Voiceovers by the cast of the movie
Okay... but limited? The visual style of this game, just like the movie, is very good. The inclusion of Splinter Cell "stealth" elements is also a good idea. However, there are a couple of significant problems with this game:
1. WAY too linear. There is ONE way to scare a bad guy in each level, ONE place to throw a batarang in the whole level, ONE way forward and back. Batman is a creative guy! Make it open-ended like GTA, Spider-man, and Superman Returns... Batman is the most creative of all those folks, so his game should match.
2. Fighting and "fear" systems: Semi-broken, not very satisfying.
3. In relation to #1, Gotham feels very small. It would be nice to explore it from the rooftops and in vehicles. So far you are pretty much stuck in a building or two, with one straightforward objective.
Despite these design flaws, the production value of this game is very high. Worth renting, but hopefully the next game is open-ended, darnit.
Great Game and smooth graphics Very fun to play with lots of items to use. love the reputation spin on the game. A little clumsy on your view as you move around but easy to over come.
I'm Batman If you loved the movie, you'll love the game. Of course, there's a little bit more events in the game, but they are well worth it. Being able to sneak up on your enemies and basically scare the s*** out of them in the immediate area is loads of fun. I especially liked dropping in from above and taking them out. The interrogations are pretty fun too. Bringing the cast of Batman Begins in to do the voice work (except for Morgan Freeman) and using movie clips as some cut scenes is a treat too. So go out and get this game...at least rent it!
THIS GAME IS THE BEST THIS GAME IS BASED ON THE MOVIE I MEAN IT JUST PLAYS THROUGH IT BEFORE THE LEVEL IT SHOWS YOU A VIDO OF THE MOVIE THAN YOU PLAY OUT THE SCENE I IS KINDA CHANLENGING BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO DISTRACT THE THUGS SO THEY FERE YOU AND DROP THEIR WEPONS
