[AMSTRAD CPC] Batman The Movie – Review & Longplay
Xyphoe
Official film licence movie to game conversion of Batman (1989) to the Amstrad CPC!
And this is my 2nd “live review” whilst playing the game to completion! Hope you enjoy – this is one the greatest ever movie to game conversions, probably the best of the 80’s just pipping Robocop to the post for me! The Amstrad version is superb with lovely colourful graphics, smooth gameplay and scrolling, great sprites and wonderful music and sfx.
This of course is based on Tim Burton’s 1989 movie with Jack Nicholson as the Joker and Michael Keaton as Batman, and I think it captures the spirit and atmosphere of the movie superbly. Not to be confused with the earlier two Batman games on the Amstrad (“Batman” being Jon Ritman and Bernie Drummonds isometric adventure before Head Over Heels came along, and “Batman The Caped Crusader” another arcade adventure which follows the old comic books style).
