    Delivering its most robust, fast-paced episode in the series yet, Telltale will leave you with a nasty cliffhanger and a smile of satisfaction.

    Episode 3 has been my favorite so far, to the point that I'm somewhat doubtful that Telltale can top it with either of the remaining installments. The bar has been set high this time around, with a perfectly paced plot and just the right balance between action and narrative. My only real complaint concerns a reveal that comes right at the end of the episode.

    If you thought the previous episode left you feeling that Bruce Wayne couldn’t get any lower or that Batman was on a path of destruction… just wait till you see the end of Episode 3… I won’t ruin anything but man does it set things up for an interesting Episode 4.

    New World order was an enlightening episode with one hell of a latter half. The highs were huge and while a few of the quieter moments lacked quite the impact players may expect, were certainly providing a platform for the finale to spring from.

    Those that enjoy the more action-packed moments may find themselves a little bored with this episode. but if you’re interested in the politics and enjoy complicated relationship building, you’ll likely find New World Order more satisfactory.

    The game continues to look and sound great – technical glitches aside.

    It’s a tribute to Telltale that the intricate, multi-layered plot and diverse cast of intertwined villains and madmen makes episode three’s lack of consequence and gameplay shortcomings excusable.

    Bruce Wayne stills the real main character in this Telltale Series. And this is one of the best features in it's adventure. Great moments and cliffhanger at the end of the chapter, but too simple in terms of gameplay.

    Episode Three provides some fantastic moments, but it’s such a shame it takes so long to introduce them.

    New World Order is far an away the best Batman Telltale episode yet. It's the perfect length (about 2 hours in total) and keeps you guessingNew World Order is far an away the best Batman Telltale episode yet. It's the perfect length (about 2 hours in total) and keeps you guessing as to what will happen next. There are constant twists throughout the entire episode, as well as a new interesting take on one of Batman's more famous villains, who is now the Mayor of Gotham.

    The episode is also mostly well paced. There is one scene in Wayne Tower featuring Lucius Fox that could've moved along a bit faster, but other than that, the game will have you hooked. There is one thing wrong with this game though: why do we have to wait a month until the next one?    … Full Review »
