Are you serious?! This is an amazing game and you only give it a 9! The same thing happened with Fallout 3. Then you give GTA: Chinatown Wars a f*cking 10! You guys have abseloutely no idea when you see a good game!

Wow, i already knew it was going to be good but i'm begining to drool in anticipation! Been playing Games for a long time and a Big batman fan, this is long overdue!

Nice review!! However I don't really see why you didn't give it a 10 to be honest, but it doesn't really matter I suppose..

The only thing I have to complain about is the lack of a PS3 review. If a game has extra content on a system, then I'd expect you guys to review that extra content...

Pre-ordered this baby as soon as I saw the first in-store demo, then changed my pre-order to PS3 when I learned that Joker was hiding out in some PlayStation challenge maps (plus you can have every map be the "Dem Bones" map by just playing with detective mode on). I personally admit, I like the 9 rating and the demo didn't show off the quality the trailers did.

Lol, Wolf007's post reminded me of this Penny Arcade comic - http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2008/6/13/

Nice, I was hoping this wasn't just going to be another game hyped up and previewed for a year only to let fans down in the end. I'm happy to see it lived up to the hype. Many games now-a-days don't do that....

This has Game of the Year written all over it for sure. Its my Game of the Year I don't care about anything else this year. Better then wolverine and any other super hero game ever!!

too many boss fights? the bosses in this game were actually fun, so it should be a 10
