Certainly seems like it, granted its real hard to argue with that since the soundtrack I think is certainly one of the best on the console. Great game all around too.
I'm glad the video gave you such a good trip down memory lane, makes doing the videos worthwhile since that was originally the whole point of the channel anyways, so thank you for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed the playthrough!!!
It is certainly a very underrated gem that's for sure, kinda overshadowed by the much more famous (but still killer, stone-cold classic) NES game. There's room for both from my perspective! I play both these games at least a few times a year and I think the only problem I have with it is that I was unfortunate enough to discover it much later on instead of growing up with it so I'm envious you got to grow up with it lol! Wish there was a SNES port or game as well, missed opportunity I think...
@@EDifyer881 I certainly won't argue with that lol! Even though I do quite like and enjoy Batman Returns on the Genesis (iffy hit detection and ruthless difficulty spikes), its not as fun to pick up and play as the first game. Love The Animated Series game, its just too damn hard once you get the Mad Hatter level lol! And the less said about Batman Forever and Revenge Of The Joker the happier I will be lol!
Had this tune at the back of my head still after all these years, great to be able to hear it now thanks to your video. My favourite Track 04 at the chemicals 🏭, still feels special.
I think that it's arguable that this game had one of the best soundtracks on the system at the time, maybe even overall. Not a dud tune in the soundtrack. I think if I had to pick a favorite tune it'd be for the driving levels 4 and 6. Heck, even had as my ringtone for a bit lol!
My only issue with the game is I only wish I would've played it and/or known about it as a kid since I would've LOVED it back in the day! Can't complain too much though since I grew up on the Adventures of Batman & Robin on Sega instead tanks to my neighbor having it and we played the hell out of it too! Great times and memories for sure...
I wish that I had played this game as a kid cause I know that I would have loved it. Grew up with the Animated Series Batman game on both the SNES and Sega and those are totally golden memories as well!
Thank you so much. I was stuck on the second level cause of the end boss and the crates and you helped me out tons. I'm new to this game and Genesis lol
The beauty of 90's game is you can remembered all the angle and movement of your character in each stage. This is why 90's gamer can actually beat the game many times....and it's really huge satisfaction to mastered a game on that day!!
@@aaronman2817The Adventures Of Batman And Robin May be so, but it’s damn near unplayable because of the stupid difficulty setting. For this reason it loses points.
@@Wil_Dsense It is genuinely one of the hardest games I've played, so I can understand why it would be considered not as enjoyable as Batman for the Genesis. I've never understood why it was made into basically a shooter for the Genesis, but an action platformer for the Super Nintendo.
You start the game thinking "this is cool nice music smooth animations good controls pretty fun" ... And then the museum stage turns this into an all time classic wow
@@mr.tie-rex9577 yeah it wasn't great like The Adventures of Batman and Robin, Batman NES, it was a 7/10 game But it could of been a lot worse, it could of been Batman Forever
I would have loved to have discovered/played this when I was a kid cause I would have LOVED this back then. It's still one I plug in once in a while today and burn through it, and its always a joy too! A great one for sure!
SNES was my first system so I'm always gonna be ever so slightly biased by just microscopic bit lol! But yeah the Sega Genesis kicked major ass and still does today for my money. All my friends had one and I ended up with one (two actually) not too long later when I was 8 and it was my second console so I'm always gonna be very fond of it and the whole 16-bit era for that matter. But yeah, the music in this game seems to be everyone's favorite aspect/feature of the game and its very, very hard to not agree with everyone because it is awesome and probably one of the best soundtracks on the system. It's got my vote! Just wish that either myself or one of my friends had the game back in the day so we could have enjoyed it much earlier lol!
My childhood Batman game(s) would be a 3-way tie between the SNES Batman Returns and Animated Series games and the Sega Genesis Batman The Animated series game. The NES Batman game came a bit later and sadly this one came much later. A shame since the only problem I have with it is that I heavily wish I had the chance to grow up with like so many others did. Still consistently play it a few times a year as well!
@@RentalRewindGaming Sunsoft knew the game would be much easier than the NES version so they have to use Limited Continues on the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive version.
As a kid I probably would've leaned towards the Batman: The Animated Series game but as an adult I certainly prefer this one and will wholeheartedly agree that this was a great and often overlooked Batman/Super-hero game for the time. Very solid all the way through and very easy to pick and play and actually get far in. Which I don't think you can arguably really say about the other ones on the system either unfortunately.
Its one of the elements of the game that has made it hold up for me and apparently lots and lots of others. One of my fav soundtracks on the system for sure!
Lol… I got completely stuck at 5:04, not realising there’s some sort of double jump. It’s a tricky game until you realise how generous the enemy hitboxes are.
Yeah it took a bit of time to get the timing of the double jump perfected but it really helped out in spots. The hitboxes are thankfully pretty forgiving so that can also take the edge off of some rather tight spots which would other wise lead to a few more unwanted hits or unintentional deaths.
This is what missing from the gaming community these days I love the fact that the game was different depending on the console you had wish they remake all the old batman games for the new age consoles
I think I had two batman games on genesis...one was a regular cartridge and another one was a totally different cartridge...that was my favorite game back then but I cant find no where web or YT. I remember this game or I might've just had one natman can't remember?😅😅
I was playing this game in 1991. Facing the Joker, he had half a bar of life left. I threw the decisive batterang but before it could kill him my older brother unplugged the system!
Ughh...that's a total drag! I remember restarting my dad's game on Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past right when he was on Ganon at the end of the game. Yeah....I accidentally deleted his save file and that did not go over well. Hence, I started gaming in order to get my dad back to that level....the beauty of a 3 yr old brain lol. Karma eventually got me back when I was playing Link to The Past and my brother in his curiosity to what I was playing not only accidentally unplugged my console, but also deleted my save file as well unknowingly. So you could say that I can understand your plight to a certain degree lol!
I got the game when I was around 11 years old. I didn't know of any cheats or nothing back then, and I'm not sure if it was a bug, intentional feature or cheat code, but at around 24:25, before going to second tower, I used to go back from the bridge to get more badges, one could collect up to 99. That way it was easier to beat Joker.
I didn't really have an issue finding a copy of it, took a little time after I started full time collecting to get it, but then again I wasn't looking for it first of all. Just sort of stumbled upon it at a Buy Back (long gone sadly), and for $11, I got a copy.
Lucky find indeed. I got a CIB copy on eBay many years ago now and while it wasn't cheap like say Batman Forever is, it certainly was a good price hence I jumped on it right away. Yeah it's not that way now lol!
@@RentalRewindGaming Seems like it's gone up a hell of a lot in the last year, likely a victim of the Pandemic Retro Game Price Gouge that many games are suffering right now (odd to see retro games inflating like this).
I still got all my games from back then and I still play my Batman games from that time pretty regularly. A lot of them have aged pretty well and are still a blast to play. Shame kids nowadays don't know what it was like to rent games and that was your weekend....great times and memories for sure!
11:00 Look at the size of the Joker and Vicki compared to Batman. In fact, most of the characters in the game are bigger than he is. Were they making fun of Michael Keaton?
It could certainly be a contender for my money. Even back in these days this could arguably be the best of the bunch, and from my perspective, there was a lot of good to great Batman games back in the day. A total stellar game!
I think that was the thing though back then. If you knew what to do and where to go these games were pretty quick but how many hours and days and weeks and sometimes years would you have to give to get to that point of where you had it under your thumb to that degree. I think that is the big difference now when you compare the old games to the new ones. The new ones I find are not really that tough overall but take forever to beat because of their length whereas the old ones are usually pretty short but take forever to beat because they can be tough SOB's on occasion and more often than not lol!

"Never rub another man's rhubarb!"
Well ms vail..... Another roaster in the hen house haha........
You ever dance with the devil in the pale moon light, I ask that of all my prey I just like the sound of it
Feel like this is such an underrated game. People usually talk about the nes version or batman returns on snes. But this one deserves love too.
100% agree with everything you said to a tee!
this was one of the 7 games that I got when I got my genesis such nostalgia and an underrated gem

Right up there with the NES version.

Me too man 💪
The MUSIC!!!
I do really really like the music in the Batman TAS game and Batman Returns but this one still reigns supreme!

This is the best Batman game ever made for the Genesis I still play it
Will not disagree with that statement at all.
The credits music at 27:15 is clearly meant to sound like "Scandalous" by Prince, which plays during the closing credits of the film. Nice touch 😊

I love how you beat the first boss by punching him in his back. Very underhanded
26:50 The music that plays when the Joker falls to his death is really creepy.
I laughed a little
I loved the arcade version of this game. Every time I saw it I knew where all my tokens were going.
This reminds me of the newest Batman in theaters, at least the first round
This game should have come with a "spoler alert" basically the intro gives away the whole plot in the (1990) batman movie

Lol… I got completely stuck at 5:04, not realising there’s some sort of double jump. It’s a tricky game until you realise how generous the enemy hitboxes are.
Yeah it took a bit of time to get the timing of the double jump perfected but it really helped out in spots. The hitboxes are thankfully pretty forgiving so that can also take the edge off of some rather tight spots which would other wise lead to a few more unwanted hits or unintentional deaths.
Still can't do the double jump
The good old days
I still got this and still play it
As do I, love plugging it in and burning through it every so often still, when the mood hits me so to speak lol!
