More fun than you could lob a Batarang at! December 17, 2008

Having almost cracked the gargantuan Lego Star Wars Complete Saga on the Wii months ago I was delighted when I found that my beloved Dark Knight would get the Lego treatment.
I wasn't disappointed. Indeed this game aptly manages to marry the kid friendly good humour of the Lego franchise with the epic and compelling legacy of Batman, and the game has personality and charm of its own in spades!
The trademark Lego humour was still there but it wasn't derisive of the essentially dark Batman mythos. The characters in the game are larger than life and given to slapstick comedy but still true to their comic book counterparts.
Batman and his supporting cast are as lovingly rendered and animated in Lego form as one would expect from the franchise. As in lego Star Wars, every character moves, jumps, runs and fights in a unique way that is true to their character and they all have fun special abilities that are grounded in the comics. The little idiosyncracies of the characters contribute much to the overall charm of the game. Leave Two Face standing too long and he'll flip his trademark coin, make Killer Croc double jump and he'll bellp flop like a crocodile, Poison Ivy can take down guards at close range with her trade mark lethal kiss.
Missions are fun and engaging, though a little short lived. In fact, I think Lego Batman requires around half the completion time of its counterpart in a galaxy far, far away. Easily the best feature is the ability to play through each level from the point of view of the criminals as well as that of the heroic Batman and Robin.
All the Bat-vehicles are also at your disposal and the vehicle levels are far more accessible and easy to control than in previous Lego games.
While the tone and controls of the game are unmistakably kid friendly there are numerous touches that will appeal to adults, particularly older Bat-fans. The rendering of Gotham City is suitably dark and opressive, set off spectacularly by Danny Elfman's Batman (1989) score.
The game may well be imperfect, very little use is employed of the Wii's innovative controls, and the gameplay will offer nothing new to veterans of the Lego franchise. But for those like their gameplay fast, fun and frantic with a touch of comic book zanyness, Lego Batman will appeal!
 Action too much like Lego Star Wars December 15, 2008

Like all Lego software, the graphics are good, the action smooth and the game has a professional feel to it. You can be either Batman, Robin or a baddie. There is lots of action as you would expect and this flows between multiple settings.
I was however, disappointed in this. It seems that much of the action and gameplay directly cribbed from the previous Lego Star Wars game. The method of collecting Lego bricks is the same and overall, if you can succeed at Star Wars, then you will do well in this game.
I had hoped for a little more imagination for the price. If, as I have, you have previously played Star Wars, then I think that you might find this a little tedious.
Is the game over already ???? November 12, 2008

After playing the delightful Lego Starwars I was hoping Lego batman would be as fun. The answer is yes, it is fun, but too darn short!!
My daughter and I played through it together in story mode and finished the game in 2 - 3 hours time. Ok, we weren't looking for all the hidden items, but even then the game should last longer than this.
The game is also a poor port and is plagued with slow-down and screen tearing even on 60hz mode.
I get the feeling the game was rushed out and sadly could have been so much better.
Dont be a fool like myself and pay full price or you'll regret it.
 GREAT November 4, 2008

I usually never play games. I ended up one weekend ages ago playing lego starwars and loving it. Was not sure if Batman would live up to it, and it did. My 6 year old son and I had a fantastic weekend and half-term playing, our favorite was playing the villain games. We have been talking about which one is better, and we are still undecided. The characters in this are fantastic. I am a firm fan of the lego game series, I think for my sons age (and possibly mine) its brilliant.
Great fun October 14, 2008

The Lego series continues to amaze - my kids would love a Spider-man or Harry Potter version too. The ability to play as a villain is great fun. My only niggle is that compared to the Star Wars and Iniana Jones games, this doesn't seem to have as much complexity (the Prima guide is very thin) and I reckon this will be completed by my 6 year old in a matter of weeks!
