I loved it.

The atmosphere and voice work is great. The graphics are a product of the U3 engine so are a tad shiny, but I can live with it.

The combat at first seems pretty simplistic, but this is the opening level, button mashing won't get you far. It's more about the rythmn and timing with the counters and punches making for a flowing combat system. (I also hear that later on you get to use the cape, batarang and other combat combinations). It was clearly never meant to be God of War as Batman is more about silent kills.

Using the claw on the scenery (and not just the gargoyles) was cool. sneaking up on bad guys for silent takedowns, hanging from gargoyles, breaking through glass ceilings, smacking them with the Batarang were all fun ways to dispatch the enemy.

I'm really looking forward to this now.
