More of a review, than reccommendation. That's not to say I'm going to disuade you from buying it, it's essentially a good game, but it has issues. #PROS: Unlike the original, HR is a near flawless game build, I found little or no bugs during play. Level design is great & quests are varied & interesting, both side & main. Augmentation system, hacking & conversational architecture are great, especially the conversation system: probably the best I've seen in any game. Art direction is good, but not amazing. #CONS: The animation is shit; very, very shit. The character design is poor & the music is monotonous & irritating. The stealth function is waaaaay to easy & the AI wouldn't pass an 11 yr old's SATS. The "shops" don't show up on the map, even after you've been there. Boss fights are annoying. #OTHER: Story isn't as good as original, instead of saturating it with philosophical discussion & moral choices, *SPOILER ALERT* they've left all of it to the very end of the game. 8/10

Combat system is beyond anything else I've ever played. Story is sharp and immersive, graphics, art direction, level design and length all excellent. Of special note though, is the immense awesomeness of having the original voice actors from the DC cartoons for Batman, Joker and Harley, who are all simply amazing. Not least because I bet most of you never realised that Joker was Luke Skywalker... I kid you not. Animation is excellent, character and plot development is utterly flawless and even the side plots and extras fit seamlessly into the process. I did not want it to be over.

Brilliant game in every way!
