happily surprised its not modern warfare 2, since every site and their dog is giving it to that fucking game

I was skeptical if this game was great after I beat it, but after much thought it probably is my second favorite game of 2009.

I'm surprised that MW2 got as much praise as it did. Don't get me wrong, I thought that game was great, but in my mind, Batman is easily the best game to come out this year.

I always forget that Batman is a very very old IP compared to others in the "competition," so thanks for reminding that this was a herculean task that Rocksteady pulled off with great success. 
 
I really hope Batman inspires Eidos and their Deus Ex 3 developers to make something FRESH and build upon the original things we love

I think we all know which game Brad is "calling" for Game of the Year.
Snijglauon Jan. 1, 2010 at 4:07 p.m.
That's weird. I beat this twice and never saw the Killer Croc locking the door moment. Guess I turn corners too quick.

@CashBailey: Well we should assume that he'll be backing Uncharted 2 considering he's ranked it as his favourite game of the year in his top 10.

Awesome, I'm very proud of Rocksteady. They did the unthinkable, made a good Batman game.
 
I can't wait to see what else will come from them.
skippyscissorson Jan. 1, 2010 at 4:20 p.m.
That combat is awesome!!!
scarace360on Jan. 1, 2010 at 4:21 p.m.
Go giantbomb not going with the crowd!!!!1 Pick what ever you want for game of the year.
TheJollyRajahon Jan. 1, 2010 at 4:43 p.m.
I have a feeling the GotY will go to either MW2 or UC2..... both overrated imo.
Jackel2072on Jan. 1, 2010 at 5:26 p.m.
oh god now i wana play this game again too!
Norbingtonon Jan. 1, 2010 at 5:53 p.m.
