Has anyone seen this site before? I wasn't aware of a lot of these titles.

As a kid I owned (and still do) the following Batman video games:

Batman Returns (SNES)- very faithful to the feel and atmosphere of the movie, great graphics, great Danny Elfman score, a bit repetitive gameplay but it's a thrill to play, so you won't really feel bother by it.

Batman: TAS (GB)- never got very far with this game and haven't played it in a long time, but I think it was pretty faithful as well.

The Adventures of Batman and Robin (SNES)- probably the best Batman game out there.

Batman Forever (SNES)- repetitive and hard to play.

So, which ones did you own?

I have the emulators for those games.  ;D

I used to be in contact with that Batman Collective site years ago when i first started this one.  I was trying to contact them recently, but had no luck - i want to incorporate all their stuff into this site.

I played the hell out of the Batman Returns game. The Adventures of B&R for snes was probably my favorite of all time tho. Loved that game.

sweet, i'll have those.  ;D ;D ;D email em to me please.....

The Batman game for Genesis was kickass and I remember the one for Sega CD being pretty damn good too. The Adventures of Batman and Robin based on the animated series was pretty fun too.

thanks man, i got those.  I already have them for my console emulators but its cool to have them as individual programs.

A friend sent me the link to a homepage that allows you to play NES games without dowloading them:

I got Batman Begins for the Xbox on ebay a few weeks ago - running it through my 360 - and I decided to play elfmans soundtrack on the 360 in the background while playing the game.

great stuff!  i did the same with superman returns - williams themes make the game so much better.

I just found some video clips of the Batman Returns RPG.
I really like the expansion of the world of Batman Returns we are being presented.
Too bad the guy who uploaded it had to comment on it while playing.
Try watching it with Danny Elfman's score on and the video sound itself muted.

Does anyone have an emulator for this console, complete with a rom of the game?

I think I'm gonna cry with all these memories...  :)

To find this adventure game, try looking at Abandonware sites (it's an old DOS game) and run it with the DOSBOX application.
