One of my favorite parts in the game was

Spoiler

when the game acts like it crashes and the whole beginning of the game is reversed, with the joker capturing batman. pretty awesome, I actually thought my game spazzed out when it first happened

Spoiler

The way all that pink pixelation came up on the screen and the noise started popping and stuff I thought I got the red rings

Then when the Joker shoots you and the game over screen pops up with it saying "Use the middle stick to dodge the Joker's gunfire" I was like "What? I thought I was watching a cutscene!" Then I remembered there is no middle stick. That was just an awesome part of the game.

haha yeah i thought i was going to be able to go back

then it flashed to the grave. looked exactly like the panel in Batman: RIP

the voicing acting was great, Mark Hamill did a great job as the voice of the joker, and Kevin Conroy did an awesome job as Batman. brings back memories from the 91 animated series, can't wait for the sequel

I think Mark Hammill may have spent more time living as The Joker than any other performer! What an amazing characterization. And to think that they almost had Tim Curry doing it instead!

Both of them were playing these characters for about 18 years together, so they both did an awesome job!

just completed it...got all 240 Riddles and all 42 Character Bios. now i just need to play through one more time on the hard difficulty.
~~then i'll try my luck at getting the challenges completed.

 

[Blankman]

Definitely a solid contender for GOTY! I'm playing it on Hard difficulty after beating the game on Normal. Absolutely fantastic game! Rocksteady kicked some serious tail with this game.

yo the part where batman comes out the grave and all those batman's are in thier cell was awesome

I did kinda feel that the screen spazzing out was a bit too obvious a joke on the player. It's probably because 1. I noticed Batman cough, like he did the other two times he inhaled the fear gas, telling me not to trust what I see. and 2. I've played Eternal Darkness, so I've seen player fake-outs before. Still, if I wasn't scrutinizing so closely, I probably would have been scared by it and think my game was breaking.

 

[Spartan Rex]

Yeah, this game really rocks the house.
Its Bioshock beautiful!
The makers put love as well as thought into this game.
Im surprised how they got so many moves into the game.
Good art design:check
Good story:check
Good game mechanics:check
Good voice acting:check
Add them all up and it could be GotY.
This is how all comic book games should be done.
I wish the creators would take a crack at making a Superman game based on the Fleisher cartoon look but modernized a bit.
Anyone notice how Batman looks exactly like the Alex Ross Batman from the neck up.
Very smart move.

I'm really enjoying this game so far. I'm not too far into it but it's awesome, I just love how it really makes you feel like Batman. That morgue scene was indeed creepy but so cool, loved the sound in that part. Also, Mark Hamill does such an amazing job as Joker, it's hard to believe it's actually him doing the voice.

just awesome and the graphics on that bit were insane.

I'm only about 20% done and already this is one of the best games i've played in a very long time.

That's one of the best parts of the game!!!

I just love to scare the cr*p out of the inmates by hiding on gargoyles, glide kick one of them to the ground, use the grappling hook to get on a gargoyle again and use Inverted Takedown on one of the inmates that comes checking out what happened!

Absolutely awesome. I want to get killed more though strangely enough - I love it when the villains taunt you after they kill you.
