Batman Returns - Sega-16 Forums

**Melf** · 12-19-2005, 12:04 AM

Few icons have had as storied a history in video games as Batman. From a few bona fide classics to some real stinkers, the Dark Knight has a ton of releases under his utility belt. One of the more controversial titles was Batman Returns, based on the second film. Many debate its quality to this day, and we've a review to help you fence-sitters make up your mind. Hey, don't say we never did anything for ya!

I'd love the game, and it'd be *perfect* in my book, but the difficulty really killed me. I have the Sega CD version, but I also want the Genesis version

It sounds nice, looks good, and controls nearly perfect although the thingy you use to swing is a pain in the neck. That said, I have fond memories of the games, playing it at a friends house on his (new at the time) Genesis 2 which was a lot more leet and newer looking than my Genesis 1.

The Sega CD version is so overrated. The driving isn't that great, but oh so pretty. It sure is a lot better than The Adventures of Batman and Robin tho. However... I love the Game Gear/Master System version. I think they share the same engine as the GG Shinobi games. They sound, look and play a lot alike.

Stiff controls and crappy level design & ai makes this game not worth your time. I did like the dark graphics and music but the sound quality is horrible.
4/10

The controls are a little annoying to me, but I love this game's dark and moody atmosphere. I only got to level two once, hence the controls. They're too sluggish for me.
