Ask anyone who doesn’t read comic books what other people like about comic books, and you’ll often hear: “They’re a power fantasy.” Take a cliché: the class runt comes home from a day of getting beaten by the bullies, reads a superhero comic, and dreams ...

Save the Robot - Chris Dahlen —

gamingdaily.co.uk 9/25/2009 — The prospect of a new Batman game split me in two. On one hand it could get Batman right, could know what Batmans about. On the other it could be all kinds of wrong – just another 3rd person action thing which does nothing but insert the right characters into the standard template. Arkham ...

massivedamage.com 9/17/2009 —
Yes, I know I’m about a month late to the party on this one, but bare with me. The thing just came out on PC and that warrants a review all on its own (or at least, that’s how I justify it to my editor-in-chief). So Batman. By now, everyone who cares about this game already ...

defunctgames.com 8/15/2009 — He has a big budget action game on the way and stars in the second highest grossing movie of all time. But not every Batman game has been worth playing. When you read Cyril review you'll see why this classic 8-bit release bucks the trend and gives us one of the most compelling action games on ...
