This game is awesome so far! The first two Batman games by Rocksteady were a lot of fun, with a good story, gameplay mechanics, graphics and voiceovers. This game is no different and holds up to those high standards of their previous two games. From what I have seen so far, other than the setting and story, there not much different here reguarding game mechanics, but that's not a bad thing. The Batmobile is fun, however with mouse and keyboard the controls are sometimes a bit too touchy. Combat seems easier than previous games so you may want to start on a higher than Normal difficulty.
If you have not played the first two games I suggest you play them first since the story is a very big part of the series and with the poor optimization this could be perfect timing to play the first two games haha.
Not many people have had any luck getting this game to run on their PCs due to terrible optimization. Apparently I am one of a lucky few that the game runs very well for. At 1920x1080 with max settings using an AMD FX 8350 and Radeon 7970 along with a 7200 RPM HDD with 128 MB Cache this game runs at about 48 FPS for me on average which is playable. I am using the AMD Batman beta drivers which appears to have helped.
I am recommending this game on the basis that the game itself is awesome, but with that being said wait for it to become actually playable. If you have a similar system to mine then this game should currently work for you too I suspect.
