Pick up any Batman comic and one of the first things you'll notice is Batman's awesome agility and maneuvering. The game's control and effects are so dismal that it's not much fun being Batman. One would at least expect the ability to jump up and grab onto ledges like Lara Croft, but not even that is possible.
I was repeatedly displeased with the poor controls. While I am beating up this game, let me tell you a few other things I was disappointed in. When activating the multitude of Bat-items, the perspective switches to first person and you see Batman use whatever it is you have chosen.
The sad part about it is having to toggle through a one-way menu that lists all the items in your inventory, whether or not you are carrying them. I don't need to tell you how difficult this can be in the middle of a fight or boss-battle.
As a matter of fact, once you have defeated the non-important thugs that attack throughout the game, you must handcuff them in order to stop them completely. Otherwise, the thugs will regain consciousness and attack you again. While this isn't an entirely bad idea, the lack of Batcuffs you carry can be somewhat disheartening. I'm certainly not suggesting that Batman have an unlimited supply of equipment, but at least more than three sets of cuffs would be a good idea.
Of course you can find boxes of equipment scattered throughout the area, which again is silly, since it's highly improbable that cases of Bat-a-rangs and Batcuffs would be lying around the city in boxes with Batman symbols on them.
Can you say "stolen? Batman is the consummate Boy Scout, as in "Be prepared. The back of the game box states that Batman can perform over animated moves. Well, don't expect the ultimate fighting character of all time. Batman DOES have over moves, if you consider walking, jumping and standing there to be three of them.
Sure, there are some pretty gnarly fighting moves that you can use to dispatch your foes; Batman is supposed to be one of the world's foremost martial artists. Again, this begs the question: how can the thugs be so darn tough? In the comics, Batman can go through several hired henchmen in mere moments with really cool moves and catlike reflexes.
It just doesn't happen that way in the game. Here, when combat is initiated, if there are other bad guys nearby they merely stand there and watch you fight one of their friends, only joining the fray once you have defeated the previous thug.
Batman Vengeance could have benefited from a better fighting engine like Oni or Dead or Alive: Hardcore. Instead we are treated to a first-generation fighting engine that rivals Rise of the Robots: Feces Edition. While the cutscenes there are 40 minutes worth are the spitting image of the animated series, the in-game graphics are bland and run together. The whole game is too dark and grainy to be any real fun and the environments are way too pedestrian.
I think the programmers started out thinking that they would use the '40s flavor of the TV series as a base, and neglected to put together the right puzzle pieces. The linear lines of Batman himself look good if you are standing in a well-lit area, but for the most part the thugs, including Poison Ivy's plant creatures, just don't cut the mustard. Here we finally have a standout category. Personally, I was thrilled to hear the same voices as in the animated TV series -- I was worried that Ubi Soft might get some second-rate voice actors who wouldn't quite make the cut.
They also provided a rare Dolby Digital audio track with the game, which makes me give it the big thumbs up. Captures and Snapshots Windows.

The fighting elements leave plenty to be desired as well. As you progress through the game, you earn special moves, such as "the hammer" or "sweep clean" but I'll be darned if I could get them to work. Every once in a while, one would work fine, but for the most part, the "hold-and-release" method of using these special moves didn't work at all, leaving ol' Bats flailing away like a prizefighter with just the standard punches and kicks.
There are a few puzzles here to break the monotony, but I actually found the puzzles to be the most enjoyable portion of the game, which may tell you everything you need to know.
