The set-up of the show is simple: pair Batman with other DC heroes for one-shot adventures. Oh wait, that's Guy Gardner.Batman: The Brave and the Bold - Season One, Part Two finishes out the first season of the animated superhero show, and it finds the creative team in excellent form, having hit their stride somewhere in the middle of the previous DVD set.
There's a small sense of exploration because certain areas are locked off until you earn new upgrades, but every section is clearly labeled, taking any mystery out of the game starring the world's greatest detective.ĭon't call my name, don't call my name, Alejandro. As you go through the levels Batman uses his utility belt to rappel up to high ledges, or blow up doors, but the game always tell you when to use them. The boss battles do tend to be more complicated, but ultimately they are just about punching the people over and over and over. There are some platforming elements to it, but it's all really basic. Most of the Batman game is just running to the right, and then mashing on the A button to punch every dude in the face. And the game tends to slow down whenever any big attacks happen, which is pretty inexcusable given how simple the game's style is. However, it makes the game look like a downloadable title, instead of the full retail game that it is. The sharp character design and bright colors gives it a campy feel, like that Batman series from the '60s (ask your parents about it, kids). The animated series' style has been perfectly translated to the Wii, and it really feels like you're playing actual episodes of the show. What makes up for it is that every single line of dialogue is voice acted by the cast of the show, most of whom are recognizable voice talent.
Normally I hate talking heads, but the animation on them is done fairly well, and everyone has a lot of expressions and poses. During the actual gameplay the story is told through talking heads and in-game conversations. There's a teaser level where Batman and the sidekick fight some enemy, then the game segues into the real plot via an animated cutscene that feels ripped right out of the show. Play Each episode in the game is presented as an actual episode of the show.
