An exceptionally good Prequel, I really felt like I experienced a real story, something rare in an industry where it seems to be all about graphics and gore. Even on graphics it delivers though, gameplay is solid, it allowed me to do more detective stuff, something which I really wanted playing the prior games. The story, whilst good, did seem to have some plot flaws to me (I could be wrong but somethings didn't seem to quite add up) and there were some really, and I mean really, expected plot "twists." The combat system felt more responsive, and I felt more human, the bat shows some emotion, and is more vulnerable. At this point in his career, he doesn't have any allies except Alfred (who will REALLY get on your nerves at times) and has to do everything for himself. I'd give the game a 10/10, the only bad thing about it is its soundtrack, the voice acting is superb and so is everything else. If you liked the previous games, you'll like this very much.
