Well first of all I wasn't impressed with the demo when it came out but a few mates kept on telling me the game was epic and it's a must buy. I forgot about it for a few months and then spotted the GOTY edition here for less than 40 Euro and it was in 3D so I said "let's have at that".
And now all can say that I was "lucky" I didn't get it when it first came out! It is the best (and only good) batman man game out there. I was a bit put off by the old style 3D glasses at first but after 5 mins into the game it was all good. The 3D is amazing and you don't need 4 grand for a new 3D HDTV, the 3D works fine on all TVs !!
For those of you that have this game already it's a shame really that it wasn't 3D when it first came out but if u are an avid fan then I would seriously consider picking this up.
Lets just hope batman AA 2 will be in 3D on it's first release...
I got the game of the year adition and it's quality, the 3D is OK, nothing special but what do you expect without a 3D TV and expecsive specs, also it's a nice theing that you can pause and switch between 2D and 3D.
This game is well worth the money, I played the demo and wasn't really interested, what with MW2 and BF2 being out around the same time, but this is a good quality game with amazing graphics!
If you like Batman you will love this game!!
The demo was poor but enough to make me rent the game for a few days. The game plays like you would want it to with all of the bats best gadgets and fighting moves!
The story is very well conceived and sees you battling a great number of Batmans comic book villains and their goons. The game play is smooth and dynamic with lots of attention to detail.
On the whole if youre looking for a Batman game buy this its the only one worth its salt.
I always doubted others reviews of this game as i am a big shooter fan. i finally decided to give it a go when it dropped to 16.00 quid and i was so happy i did. truely amazing game looking forward to the new one in october !
