  1. So much control is lost in the shift to PC that the entire game suffers.
  2. A year-old game newly ported to the PC that plunges players into a world of bad camera angles and overwrought control elements.
  3. The presentation and polishing of Batman: Vengeance is all first-rate. It’s the crappy camera management and the twisted control scheme (without the game pad) that make it more of a chore to play than it should be.
  4. There's a few clever puzzles scattered throughout the levels; unfortunately, there's also a few incredibly painful flying and driving sequences as well. [Jan 2003, p.77]

    It's really fun and addictive a nine cause its really easy to get cheats and the cheats make the game way to easy.

    I remember really liking this game the last time I played it. The story is about Batman trying to stop the Joker (naturally), but there are also other characters, such as Harley Quinn, Batgirl, Mr. Freeze and Poison Ivy. The gameplay is very fun, there are some puzzles that are pretty good. The combat is OK, because you need to get used to it first. I didn't really like the flying and driving sequences, as they were hard to control in my opinion. The looks of the characters and the voice acting were amazing, just like in the animated Batman series and Batman: Arkham Asylum/City. Overall a great game, I would recommend it to all Batman fans.
