'Traveller’s Tales took some chances with Lego Batman 2. 'FPS fans that have tired of the typical shooter formula should find plenty to like about this high-flying, slapstick-heavy download.' – Dan Ryckert 'Arkham City not only lives up to the standards set by Arkham Asylum, it bests its predecessor in every way and stands tall as one of Batman’s greatest moments in gaming.' – Andrew Reiner Accessible and entertaining, it’s also a perfect fit for family play.' – Meagan Marie 'Tight controls and cheeky humor make Brave and the Bold an easy recommendation for bat and brawler fans alike. Batman: Arkham Asylum is this year’s BioShock, not just from the connection established with the world, but from its ability to innovate where new ideas are needed, and moreover, deliver an adventure unlike any other.' – Andrew Reiner Some play off Batman’s insensitive side, others highlight the rogues’ ability to manipulate him, and a few are sprinkled in as tips of the hat to long-time comic readers. 'The story behind this amazing Batman experience doesn’t evolve much from Joker taking over the Asylum, but it dishes out water cooler moments like they are going out of style.

We’ve had fun with this series, but it’s time to dump the franchise out on the floor and start piecing it back into something new.' – Ben Reeves 'The charm of Lego blocks is exploring your creativity and building new things, so Traveler’s Tales’ habit of sticking to one formula stands in stark contrast to the entire LEGO philosophy.

Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, PlayStation 2 - 7.5 I, for one, hope that EA takes the intelligence and skill of its audience to heart and really delivers a Batman classic the next time around.' – Lisa Masonįor more on the Batman Begins video game and its surprising influence on the Arkham games, head here. This certainly isn’t the smart, wry Batman game that fans have always wanted, but it is a pretty decent base to build off of. Instead it apes some of the most accessible and memorable parts from these genre’s greatest games (like Splinter Cell’s lock picking and Burnout’s takedowns) and merges them with interesting, if somewhat underdeveloped, ideas like instilling fear in one’s enemies. 'If Batman Begins were trying to be the pinnacle of stealth action, combat racing, and iconic hero adventure, it hasn’t reached any of those heights.
