Batman & Robin for the PS1 is an ambitious, clunky MESS of a game.
but it's actually hilarious...

I've never heard of this game but this movie is still my favorite Batman movie even though it was before my time. I actually remember all of it and didn't fall asleep like I did with the Dark Knight trilogy. I'm just one of those people that still prefer things with a lighter tone and I've always liked Mr. Freeze.

It basically tried to be Arkham Knight. Commendable for the ambition, but it just couldn't. It wasn't that the era didn't have the _tech_ it was that it didn't have the knowledge. If you went back in time and taught them modern control systems and balancing it would have revolutionized gaming.

@PosthumanHeresy 3 ай бұрын

My problem with it is that they tried to mix that with the drama. They did BTAS Freeze (literally, Paul Dini created that entire story and character for BTAS). They wasted Bane, who shouldn't have been there. Pam was good. They did a weird version of Babs because they just never used Gordon as a real character in the movies. Alfred's disease was not a good plot for the movie. Doing the depressing dark Freeze in a comedy didn't work at all. Sure, he's fun... until you remember the backstory and stuff. Imagine a movie that was just a proper adaption of Heart of Ice.

You guys deserve a medal for playing this as long as you did. Because of all the people I've seen try to tackle this game, I've never seen anyone get past the first level in the museum. (I don't blame you guys for getting confused on the controls. This was back in the day when you had to consult the game manual to learn the buttons, since disk space was a luxury back then.) But the real tragedy of all this is that the game IS super accurate to the look of the movie and gets a lot of details right. And it's super ambitious with having detective mode vs. combat mode; an open world map; multiple characters to choose from with different combat styles; and real time, time-sensitive missions. With the right people behind it and a bit more polish, this could've become the Arkham Knight of its day. But unfortunately, whether it was because of lack of technical skill, lack of time, lack of money, or some combo of the three, we wound up with......THIS instead.
