Which system should I pick this game up for, the Xbox 360 or the PS3??

I only have a 360.

This game is fun as heck! The ambiance works and I love the fact that when you start picking off thugs (the sane ones), they start to panic and start saying stuff like they do in the movies.

Pick. It. Up.

Well just beat the game, I must say... the final boss battle was an absolute disappointment by all standards. Then again all the games boss battles we're pretty sub par, using the same tactics and themes constantly.

Just wish one of the boss battles didn't require use of the batarang to win -_- coulda been more creative

Pick up the PS3 version. You get to use the Joker on the challenge maps as a bonus feature.

It was okay. Would you have prefered to just beat up every character like you do with the henchmen?
Spoiler:
Granted, the fight against Poison Ivy was a bit lame, but I liked the way they handled Croc.

Honestly, I think they needed to be more creative period with the boss fights. Croc was ok, but seriously, smacking around EVERY boss with the batarang just to do a cool combo got kinda old. I think the team should have taken a note out of GOW's book and do "cenematic" boss fights, utilizing the terrain and objects to defeat your foes. It would have been perfect with all the gadgets you get! Or even pull a metroid and each upgrade you get is the key to defeating your next foe.

I just think they were a bit lax with the boss battles, though the combat system was a blast.

Probably Nurgle, Africa has the lock on that.

Hell yeah! Even though the Boss fights could use some more creativity and the navigating has it's flaws it's still a great game. Buy it!

Yes.

Batman chokes out sentry.

Group of thugs runs over to unconscious sentry.
"What happened to him?"
"Batman must've got him."
"Oh man, we're SCREWED!"
"I ain't scared of you Batman! You hear me?!" Shoots gun in random direction.

Batman waiting in rafters swoops down on panicked guard and takes him out.



----Yes, you can do some Batman-esque moves like this.
