Hello again, Over the next couple of months I will be writting an A to Z games review of over 250 of the most popular Megadrive titles. I will give a brief description of each game and rate it from 1 to 100%, accordingly games will be judged against other consoles from their era. As a bonus I will say if a game is region protected or not (i.e if a game is region protected, it will only play on a machine from the same country, or will need a converter) I will also say if the game is known by another name, or if it is availible for other consoles. Cheers, Paul.

                                 BATMAN (1 PLAYER) 82 % (region free)

Batman is a side scrolling platformer based on the 1989 blockbuster movie of the same name, the game closely follows the film storyline with cut scenes and level design, starting in the axis chemical plant and ending in the final confrontation with the Joker in the clocktower, you have the usual punch and kick attacks as well as the grappling hook and batarangs at your disposal (best saved for the end of level bosses) you even get to drive the bat mobile and bat copter, in the shoot 'em up stages. While not graphically beutiful, Batman has a solid look about it, the sprites are small but suit the platform nature of the game. The game is fun and challenging (if a little short), similar to the N.E.S. game of the same name also made by Sunsoft. If you are a Batman\Megadrive fan this is the one to get as Batman and Robin and Batman Forever Suck. (also availible for N.E.S.) 

 As I mentioned earlier, this is a work in progress so if there is a MD game you would like me to review sooner, please feel free to e-mail me through e-bay ... I will be happy to push a review forward. Kindest regards, Paul.
