Looks like it might be "Splinter Cell" in Gotham (to me, that's a good thing). Is that an accurate assessment?

Yeah, that's not too far off. Shades of Clancy, some Assassin's Creed (sans stabbing).
Honestly, I've been loving the demo so much.
As soon as I get some extra money.

I played the demo. It was excellent. My only beef was that you could play the entire game using the special vision but it would ruin the graphical goodness on that game. Small nitpick...it was a blast.

Brilliant Brilliant game

2 points from it.


1. Its a long game which never gets boring.
2. Going by the final scene of the game, there should be a sequel

Absolutely fantastic game. Best Hero game of all time. I loved it. Playing through the challenges now and just downloaded new content. This is the measuring stick for all Hero games.

Mark Hamil was simply brilliant (as usual) doing the voice of the Joker.

Yeah I'm digging this game as well. I bought it used 6 days ago and I have 1 more day if I want to return it and get ODST. I may just keep it and finish the game, there is ALOT to do in it, I haven't even scratched the surface.

I agree with the Splinter Cell reference, the fight scenes are bad*** too!

I'm going to have to pick this up when I get my cast off. I don't know if I've seen a game get such good reviews before. Even the Zero Punctuation guy had trouble finding things to make fun of.

Honestly...the only thing that could cap off this game for me would be some additional mission down load content. They have offered Challenges but that is not real DLC to me.
