"A True Disgrace to Batman fans all around!!!"

Let me first start of by saying what a horrible game this is, in fact it's so terrible that Kemco themselves shut down their message boards for this game, but why? I remember when I saw an interview with one of the producers of the game who said It was a great game headed in an ''artistic'' approach, but when is stool considered art? This game alone is enough for the capped crusader to hide in shame in the bat cave for months sort of like Kemco is doing.So no matter how much you love the Batman series, don't even bother looking here because the game is nothing but a disappointment and a disgrace to the name of Batman, Kemco must be punished for basically shitting on the writers and creators of Batman and as well as DC.

Game play-not a number low enough to describe.
-The Gameplay in this game must have been designed by a couple of retards, but then again that is a requirement to work for Kemco.First off the fighting is the worst I've ever seen and full of glitches such as punching a guy while not even an inch from him and his only reaction is to chase you around for a game of grab ass.I also thought this game was supposed to have dozens of combos, but all you really do is hold down the left trigger and tap the A and B buttons to see him do the same repetitive roundhouse.Also in this game it's very difficult to get past the streets because there's always about 6 guys going after you so you basically do this.
1.Try to focus on beating one guy up, and then try to batcuff him within 5 seconds or he'll get back up.
2.Try to complete process #1 while the other 5 guys are beating the living hell out of you.
3.repeat 5 more times.

Sounds like fun right?!

Graphics-0
-Another great addition to the game!!!Maybe the only thing which is half-decent about this game is it's cutscenes, but ask yourself this, am I going to waste 7-8 hors of my life playing through pain staking and disgraceful levels to watch the 2 minute videos?It's all up to you.One of the questions I had posted to Kemco about where does Batman shoot the bat grapple, maybe onto a passing plane or cloud? But of course they wrote me a ''generic'' e-mail about how pleased they are for me to be writing to them, but where's my answer? Can somebody reply to me on this? Now the word ''generic'' easily describes the backgrounds of Dark Tomorrow, hey!!! and the character models to they all look the same too, why everything in this game is easily described as generic!!!

Sound-0
-The word generic pops up into mind with the same ghastly tune played over and over again through this game, and also the fact that Bruce Wayne and his enemy's both share the same grunt noise while getting the daylights beat out of them.

Overall-Once again, no score low enough to describe.
-To some this game up in one sentence I'm going to quote a friend of mine, and say, ''A piece of crap with a license slapped on to it!'', yes, and this is a perfect example of one isn't it?My only hope for Kemco is that they reconsider their career in the gaming industry and go back to what they know best, compost engineering!
