honestly, the circlejerk about the batmobile does this game a disservice. yes, that shit is annoying BUT this is the BEST realization of a superhero in videogames, still.
the story is definitely a little goofy, but this is a rocksteady masterpiece front-thru-back

the music gives this 3 stars alone, the extra 1.5 goes to the incredibly creative level design, and honestly good controls

this game almost made me develop a gambling habit in real life.
amazingly written and like one of the golden standards of modern rpg dialogue + sandbox imo.

the original was such an original and experimental idea from EA,
damn shame it got completely bastardized into a by-the-numbers open world collectathon with an at BEST aggressively mid story. no replay value, and you have to UNLOCK the ability to parkour roll.
c'mon son.

when i was a kid, i tried the demo for this on Xbox Arcade. I saw Splosion Man fart magma out of his ass, and launch forward as a double jump and laughed until i shit myself.
underrated and forgotten game, BUT the co-op was really fun.

better swinging & combat, mediocre everything else. phin is such a horribly written antagonist that it makes the climax of the game infuriating, it was really nice of them to make the game only 2 hours long.
insomniac miles is such a DWEEB
prowler v. miles in this game is freaking awesome though.

comPLETELY carried by the combat system. swinging is honestly pretty mid and the city is a ROBLOX free-model lifted from Prototype 2.
