No. 2: Batman and Robin: The Game (PS1, Acclaim, 1998)

What could you expect from a game based on a Batman film that involved bat-nipples and more ice puns than you could throw a stalagmite at?

Well, about as much as you would think. Clearly, Acclaim didn't take any of their previous criticism and act on it. Driving the Batmobile is tedious because of the overly narrow streets. If you hit anything, a horrible crashing sound plays, and there isn't enough space to turn around. The three playable characters, Batman, Robin, and Batgirl, are about as nimble and agile as Oswald Cobblepot. They control like clunky and cumbersome robots. There's plenty of moves to pull off and gadgets to use, but it isn't easy or fun. At the time the graphics were good, and fit the dark mood well, but today it looks about as good as Clayface's...face.

A terrible game to go with a terrible movie.
