Batman

houseimprover

Just completed Batman AO and I thought it was thoroughly enjoyable. I didn't do the side missions as I wanted to get into AC4 which I do do the vast majority of and immerse myself fully into the game. That and COD is out soon, it's a shame they release it so close to bigger games as I would love to do it all but I know once I stop playing that's it.

thanks for reminding me that Batman has just come out. I will be buying that right now:)

Don't bother buying it until they sort out the glitches. Crashes constantly on xbox 360

That's surprising. One of the big reasons go for lower powered consoles rather than higher powered PC's is that there's one piece of hardware and the developers have plenty of opportunity to make things work. The other two games were really well made. I expected better...

Yeah, I'm pretty gutted. Batmans one of my favourites but I expected them to have fixed it by now, it's been a week since release but nothing from the developers.

If you can get it super cheap go for it, but I wouldn't bother playing until they release a patch as it's so frustrating

Well its only a month or so since I finished Arkham City so i'm all Batmaned out for now. Will look at GTAV, and The Last of Us on PS3. I'be also sold my soul to Steam on the PC.

Hopefully that should give them time to fix it. They either need to find a new QA team, or to find new managers that don't force through a buggy build just to hit a deadline.

I had two crashes during the game if it helps anyone.

I haven't played the others either, are they that good? for some reason I thought they wouldn't be..

I've had it crash 5 or 6 times in 8 hours of play. Very enjoyable game, just a little buggy in places. I think the critics were overly harsh on it, as its just more of the same as AC (not a bad thing) just with different voice actors (a little jarring at first, but you get used to it). Some people are encountering game breaking bugs though, so I might have been lucky...

obviously you underestimate how long it can take to fix bugs in games
