    I loved the movie. The game looks great, that character mapping is by far the best i've ever scene, but it's so encapsulated in the movie that you might as well just watch that and give your thumbs a rest. Though the dialogue was good, I would have rather had an option to skip it. like I said...I've seen the move, I don't need a series of tedious and over the top clips I loved the movie.

I think the controls and environements should have been more "spiderman" or "gta" (not in plot - just control) than feeling like you're contrained into a pac man maze.… Expand

    Bought the game the day the film came out... gotta say, I was a bit disappointed. Although it's a ton of fun to play and looks fantastic, being led through every level gets old and it's all too easy to just block punches and time retaliations. The environments need to be a lot more open... a gamer needs to feel that there will always be a corner of Gotham left to explore or that Bought the game the day the film came out... gotta say, I was a bit disappointed.

The environments need to be a lot more open... a gamer needs to feel that there will always be a corner of Gotham left to explore or that there's many different ways to beat a level. Plus, it's much too short. Although I'm a big fan of Batman and of the movie, this game just didn't fulfill my Bat-expectations.… Expand

    pros: great graphics, decent batman combat, has stealth gameplay, vehicle missions are pretty fun, has extras, voice cast are all the actors from the movie. cons: not much depth, not enough levels, no level select. OVERALL: a really good game with some of the best graphics on ps2, it just doesn't have enough depth or thought to the lasting appeal.

    Could be a lot better if it wasn't so low-paced, but still the best Batman game on the console and it would be recommended to be played by anyone who's into adventure games and super-hero games, but only if clunky controls doesn't bother you that much he's just less responsive than what's expected, it isn't terrible.

    One of the first batman games that I have played back on the playstation 2. I thought it was still a fun stealth game but I gave it a 7.1 out of 10 knowing this game needed to improve.

    Batman Begins es un gran juego, en la cual su origen es de la película con el mismo nombre adaptado al videojuego. Tiene una buena historia y una buena jugabilidad, con buenos gráficos.

    eu não gostei muito do fato do jogo ter que ser jogado em stealf, mesmo que o batman faça isso em historias em quadrinhos ou filmes, o problema é que ele não consegue enfrentar mais de um inimigo, os graficos são até impressionantes para um ps2, foi divertido jogar esse game!

    what I thought would be good wasn't (the combat) but the graphics are so beautiful that it doesn't look like a PS2 game. i beat this **** just because of the graphics

    Antes de que saliera los juegos de la franquicia batman arkham este era en mi humilde opinión uno de los mejores juegos de batman, la historia es bastante fiel a la película, las cinemáticas son bastante buenas y parece que el juego tuvo una mayo presupuesto, lo único de penca que tiene es que el sistema de combate es bien tosco y aburrido y el ost es olvidable pero esta bastante bueno siAntes de que saliera los juegos de la franquicia batman arkham este era en mi humilde opinión uno de los mejores juegos de batman, la historia es bastante fiel a la película, las cinemáticas son bastante buenas y parece que el juego tuvo una mayo presupuesto, lo único de penca que tiene es que el sistema de combate es bien tosco y aburrido y el ost es olvidable pero esta bastante bueno si te gusta el batman de nolan te va a gustar este juego… Expand

    As a whole, the game was a little short (six hours), but it's still a pretty fun ride despite the fact that it is not the definitive Batman game we've been waiting for. This game ain't the greatest in terms of freedom and linearity, but I'll still take it over "Spider-Man 2." No doubt.

    Batman Begins isn't just a good game, it's two great games that play great together. When you’re the caped crusader, it's an action game in the mold of "Splinter Cell"... Then, when you’re driving the Batmobile, the game morphs into "Burnout," with you knocking cars off the road as you careen through traffic.

    Crates and barrels aside, Batman Begins is generally a well-produced game. Its visuals are often striking, and are distinct in style from those of the film.
