To be honest he isn't a superhero, but that is just lame to make some sort of arguement over it. Hes a vigilante and a crime fighter and fights enough people with super powers that its really a non issue.
I'm not much of a Batman fan per say(hes too soft on crime), Im more of a Punisher guy myself but they are in the same boat. They are vigialnte/crime fighters and are comic heros. Both use superior intellect, weaponry, toughness and (particurlarly in Batman's case) martial arts skill to defeat their foes. They are not "super" heros they are just comic heros, but to make the arguement that its not a superhero game is just a semantics arguement.
I disagree with all the love this game is getting. Everything Batman is "cool" since the Christopher Nolan re-imagining of the character and I think that plays a big part in the hype. Its an ok but flawed game, with a nice blend of beat em up and metroidvania. It is worth a rental at best, so I cant see it being best game of any genre.
@Zen......I'd bet everything that Batman couldnt beat Preacher

I'm pretty sure I could pwn you in this argument, but I'm going to let my earlier posts be the end of my rantings.
Instead, let me ask you. Have you read the entire Garth Ennis punisher run? The MAX series is FANTASTIC! Oh man. I'm telling you, get the Punisher Omnibus, and then go for the Max series on amazon, you will NOT be dissapointed.
...and shit yeah dude, Batman would kill Preacher. You are underestimating him. Even Herr Star figured out all you had to do was not understand his word, and he's pwnd. Batman sucessfully faught the Swamp Thing....you think JC could fight the Swamp Thing, lol? Dude. Might as well fight the Earth itself.
Anyway, yes, I'm well aware of how nerdy this conversation is. That said, at least you have a reasoning behind your rantings. Most people who make that argument have never even read a book.
I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.
