Believe me, i started playing in the middle of the night, it's usually when i have more time and i'm more receptive. I didnt know that the intro would play out like that, i thought there would be a cut like in the demo. When the whole scene played out, with the music growing and Hamill playing out that whole monologue gave me goosebumps: "What's that sound? Croc is that you, ole boy?".

I know what's was going to happen, i saw it in the trailer, but it was fucking ominous. He's even better than he used to be, with that rasp in the throat he has now. This Joker's fucking scary.

And the rest of the cast is amazing too. How can anyone not love Arleen Sorkin?

Seriously, if anybody is a bat-fan (like i've always been for years, even when i couldnt care less for comic books) this game is a dream come true. Even more is good on it's own.

Note for the ones who played that: Two words. Inverted. Takedown. That's what i mean when i ask for tactical sadism in a game.
