    An insane masterpiece of a game.

    Of course, being a batman game instantly raises the game rating by at least 10 points. The graphics and ost is incredibly amazing for the Gamecube. Not a single game can come close to this beautifully crafted piece of art. Simply, a true hidden gem of the previous gaming era and the magnum opus of that generation. To this day, I'm still left    An insane masterpiece of a game.

    To this day, I'm still left wondering how Kemco could come up with such a perfection and I will forever be grateful for such fond memories of my childhood.

    I love you Kemco, you're the very best thing that happened in my life    … Expand

    Good design and concept but sadly rushed in most parts and it really shows.

    How they screw up Batman? He's like the easiest character to follow! Bad camera angles, just terrible! This is a big slap to the face to true Batman fans like the story is decent I have to admit but too bad the gameplay is awful. Beating the game was a huge pain in the ass but I managed to beat it. I recommend you to watch the cut scene instead of playing the game.

    The game, let me just say that it is horrible or the worst game in the Batman video games series. Basically, nothing, well graphics were only good. I used to have it, but I sold it because the game is terrible.

    This entire package contends for worst game ever - it's literally unplayable. It's only saving grace is the London Philharmonic sountrack and the decent cinematics.

    This game is harder than trying to bury a turd in a box of wet kitty litter, I'd rather cough up a hairball than play this horrible game, call Bob Barker whoever made this game needs to be spayed and neutered.

    OH...MY...GOD. Kemco, what in the hell did Batman ever do to you for him to recieve this absolute atrocity of a game??? And what really, REALLY sucks is that we FINALLY get a Batman game that isnt based on any of the cartoon series or movies (a nice change of pace) but an actual COMIC BASED game. Here you have a Batman game that has fantastic production value (after seeing the intro you OH...MY...GOD.

And what really, REALLY sucks is that we FINALLY get a Batman game that isnt based on any of the cartoon series or movies (a nice change of pace) but an actual COMIC BASED game. Here you have a Batman game that has fantastic production value (after seeing the intro you get really hyped to play, the story line was REALLY GOOD and would have done the Batman comic proud, and it had TONS of villians from the most famous to the most totally obscure) and what did Kemco do? COMPLETELY BOTCHED THE GAME. People, i'm not joking when i say that gameplay is broken from top to bottom. And the sole reason for this is due to the WORST camera views/changes in ALL of the video games that i have EVER played. I really CANNOT stress that enough. WORST..CAMERA..EVER. It LITTERALY changes the view every 2-3 seconds and when it does, your control set up completely changes due to the view that the camera gives you. So when your playing it you have to deal with the camera spazzing out consistantly while at the same time dealing with the ever changing controls due to the camera changing ALL THE TIME. And i wont lie, i beat the game, yes folks that not a typo, I BEAT THE GAME, but only out of my mad sense of loyalty to Batman. Otherwise, do everything in your power to avod this game. Talk about a huge letdown.… Expand

    I think this is a decent game for all those dumb weiners that give this game a 0 are lazy bums that cant probably pass the game cause they dont got skills. This game is a good time killer if you want to waste some time overall this game has good action.

    Excellent graphics, cut scenes, presentation, level design, voice acting, animation, boss fights, musical score. So why do i give this game a 5/10. Because the camera, and controls are so awful that you cant even enjoy everything else. This is a great game plagued by game breaking issues that ruin the entire experience.

    No tutorials when the game is complex. The controls are really bad. Graphics are good for a gamecube game. The game is hard cause it ain't playable. Plot ain't so bad but this game deserves to be skipped.

    I remember being excited about getting this game and that was about the best part of having this game. When a generation 6 3D game pushes you to 16 bit Batman Returns for Genesis you know that this game failed.

    Right from the get go I just didn't get the game. Maybe it's me? No, it's probably not.. I saw a guy on YouTube smash the game with a hammer. The graphics seemed underwhelming    I remember being excited about getting this game and that was about the best part of having this game.

    It was a boring, lousy and disgraceful game. It's one of the worst games I've played in my life. You don't need to play.

    Graphics and sound quality were especially impressive, but its gameplay flaws destroyed any possible greatness it might have had.

    The gameplay here sucks. It is heinous, hideous, and despicable. The game's presentation, though, does shine through and makes the game bearable.

    The game’s presentation is nothing less than excellent, and its graphics and sound are great too. On the other hand, the control and camera are awful, and the gameplay often fails to deliver on its lofty intentions.
