The gameplay here is pretty much what you would expect from Telltale with a little bit more of an emphasis on action. You're Batman here and you're kicking bad guys, you know, but the real deal of the game here comes down to 2 things: being a detective and being Bruce Wayne. I was surprised on the emphasis of being a detective here in this game, but it's pretty refreshing as a hardcore Batman fan. I admit it's pretty cool and it works very well.I just like playing as Batman, walking around, looking at clues and figuring things out. It's nice!

I would say if you are a fan of Telltale games and definitely if you're a fan of Batman give this a shot! 7/10

Shadows Mode? Well.. the difference is obvious: if you could not care less about black-and-white-with-noir-effects, there's no reason to buy it.

Good game!!!

the game is soo cool its shows why batman is the best detectiv !

Overall - Batman the Telltale series is a fantastic addition to the Telltale library for both fans and non fans alike of the cape crusader, its more Bruce's story than the dark Knight's and features some of the best iterations we've seen yet of old and new characters alike. - 9.1/10 (BUY IT!)

I made a conscious effort to play "humanely" and not succumb to Telltale's usual tacit encouragement to beat and bloodlet. Notwithstanding convincing a henchman to talk without using any violence, Alfred still yelled at me for beating the henchman "half to death", and there was a huge chunk of dialogue where I was chastised for acting like a monster. This is even though Commissioner Gordon "noted my non-violent approach" to dealing with said henchman. It really took me right out of the game and made the whole "choices" aspect entirely pointless. I would have thought Telltale would get better at this after so many games. Sloppy stuff.

Telltale Games brings new way of looking on one of the greatest successes in comics industry - Batman. I consider myself as a dedicated fan of DC's Batman series, at least of their cinematic and gaming execution, and after reading some of the reviews on this product I didn't get my hopes up and waited long enough before purchasing the game. Do I regret it? No way. This performance exceeded my expectations and I'm more than satisfied. There is everything - friendship, romance, treachery, character development, new features and this game showed me the view on Gotham and Wayne family I've never seen before.

So where's the catch you ask? If you are into DC, as I am, you would probably know the TV series Arrow, the younger copy of Batman. Arrow and Batman do have much in common but there are still many differences between them, especialy in their behaviour. So what did the developers do? It's easy, they didn't capture the Batman's, Bruce Wayne's, persona right. They just took Arrow and set him into Batman's story. Does it matter? If you ask hardcore Batman fans, for them yes, for the rest of the public, not so much. In my opinion Telltale just brought a new way of looking on Batman as a hero and a man shadowed by the ghosts of the past.

Pros

✪ Details are important and I think that scripwriter made sure that their texts are elaborate, follow up and also nice to listen to. Amazing voice acting is something I just have to mention. And another detail are the fighting scenes which are full of action and really enjoyable to see.

✪ Selina Kyle - You just know you gotta love Catwoman. Even though she does appear in the game almost scarcely, you just see the spark between her and the protagonist as there's always been.

✪ Characters - The strongest of all is the development of Harvey Dentand his alter ego Two-face. It's fantastic to see how he slowly changes and environment around influences him. Besides him you meet whole bunch of famous DC villains, but this is for you to experience.

Cons

✪ Rushing - Telltale used perfect marketing strategy, as they always do. First episode for free. Why is that? The first one is the best one. The one which grabbed the most work, the one so good you just gotta know what happened next. So good you immerse yourself completely in the story. But the rest. They are just rushed. Too quick escalation and it damaged the game as a whole.

✪ Optimalization even after completion of the game there are fps drops and whole stability of the game is questionable. Even though this minor defect doesn't appear too frequently it can ruin the atmosphere during the gameplay.

8/10

Last game by Telltale I've played was the Game of Thrones and I must say this was a huge improvement, now I really felt like my choice matters and what it does and changes. This is what these games are about and how they should be done. I can gladly recommend this game for both telltale and DC fans.

Man, i swear, games like this one, really makes me miss Telltale. Even if the whole "Your choice matters" thing was mostly BS, they knew how to make an engaging story, with interesting characters, and some really great dialogs. They proved that graphics aren't everything. And they deserve some respect for their work. I really love Batman, as character, but this Batman, from Telltale, might be one of my favorites.
