What genius to realize that the way to make a Batman game "feel right" is to import the tropes from the Survival Horror Genre (like Resident Evil). I'm not quite sure when I realized I was actually playing a survival horror game but it sure works well with the Batman mythos, turning survival horror on it's head to boot.
The Joker is the ultimate monster. He kills and maims just for fun. He's a homicidal maniac. The gritty world of an Arkham island run by Joker and the rest of the loonies is brought to life with graphical impact that leaps straight from a comic book and into (virtual) reality.I actually sighed in relief when I finally got one of my friends (I won't say who) off that horrible island and then turned and voluntarily walked back into the darkness, ready to face the Joker's next horror.
Why? Because I *am* the Dark Knight. I'm Batman! Joker, you can send all the Killer Crocs and Banes you wish, but I'll take them down using my finely honed fighting skills and my greatest weapon of all -- my intellect.
Forget about your men with guns, Joker, for face their fears from above, swooping in too fast to react and then flying away into the darkness before a buddy can give cover fire. I may carry no gun myself, but my arsenal is considerable; Explosives, bat claws, batarangs and everything you'd expect from the Dark Knight, even a hidden bat cave. My only ally is Oracle, the former batgirl you crippled, Joker. She still hunts you, though in her own way.
Now excuse me because I've got a job to finish and one nasty clown-embodied loose end to tie up. These tapes give me the clues as to what Joker wants and it's just a matter of time before I figure it all out.
Come, Joker, I'll face your horrors and I'll show you what really lurks in the night.

The Graphics and Art work in this game are top off the line. Alot of work was put into this game.
The Story is compeling and has many twists and turns, It was very hard to see where and when it would turn out in the end, Every charachter was played out as it should have.
My only gripe is the price to playtime ratio, I beat it in 2 1/2 days. Although i didnt scower the game for all the hidden secrets and such, And since this is a story driven game with no " Choice " features that dictate different outcomes, I would be hard pressed to play through it a second or third time to make up for the ratio.
Given that, What lacks in re-playability it definately delivers on Graphics, The world is stunning as well as the charachter modeling and even the lifelike movements.
At top price this game is far better as a Rental than a buy to own, But given the depth of attention to detail in this game, I can honestly say I am looking forward to the next instalment.

This game is amazing! I'm not even a Batman fan, bought the game strictly off reviews rating and love it! This is a must have game!

Great game, very fun. Riddle's challenges are fun to find and add alot to an already great game. Only complaint is the combat gets a little boring toward the end and the last 1/8 of the game drags a little. But all in all a great game and must have for any Batman fan.

This is a very good game that is appropriate for all ages. Although it is rated T it does not lack in content. Voice acting and the plot of the game are superb. Mark Hamill does really good characterization of the Joker. The style may not be to everyone's liking at first. It is following neither the animated series graphics style, nor the movie version. It is more grungy and realistic than other Batman universe portrayals.
What is good is that you will rarely find yourself bored by tasks. Everything is pretty fun.
MOST importantly, there is no Robin, which is a good thing.
