The Final Word game review

Batman -- Sunsoft

R.I.P.
If you own an NES and even remotely enjoy platform games, this title is an absolute must for your collection! Possibly the one of the best games ever on the NES platform, the original Batman by Sunsoft is based vaguely on the first Batman movie... vaguely in that the intermissions relate to the movie, and the levels... well... the levels don't. Graphics are still appealing to look at, even today. Sound and music are well done, and at times I find myself humming the music to this game. Playcontrol is crisp and very demanding in the skills department, requiring you to master the many techniques which you will use to solve the game. I can't say enough about this game, except that if you have never played it, you owe it to yourself to check it out. Hats off to great programming!
