    The game itself is not the next-generation butt-kicking game I hoped it would be, but it is a fun, varied title that, despite harboring some awkward control here, and simplistic design there, winds up being a respectable arcade game, steeped in Batman lore.

    In the end, BV succeeds at what it set out to do--it puts you into the role of Batman. Every major aspect of the character is presented in some way in the game...it is one of those incredibly rare birds known as a good licensed game.

    It's an atrocity to play. [Nov 2001, p.98]

    It is far from perfect, but that being said, this game is still the best Batman game ever made for any system, and I have played them all!

    Not a bad game, the best Batman game to come out ever. With an original story line, great action, it's a good consideration for Batman fans. Bads: controls are difficult at times, ecspecially in fine movements and camera angles are difficult to deal with. Goods: incredible city landscape, looks like actual animation from now off air WB tv show. … Expand

    Batman Vengeance is a decent and somewhat stylish super hero/adventure game who's ruined by its terrible controls and lame boss fights. I don't recommend it, specially for Batman fans.… Expand
