You may know him by many names: the dark knight, the big bat, the caped crusader, or just simply Batman. This character has always been one of the most loved superheroes of all time since he was born. Bruce Wayne – the hugely famous billionaire playboy orphan – by day, and Batman by night, this comic character is truly the dream of every single boy on earth.

That is why along with the development history of video games, we have been trying so hard to produce a quality Batman game. There are many successful attempts, as well as a lot of failures. And from the experience of the successful games, we can see that a quality Batman video game should feature authentic Batman experience: the cool gadgets, the investigating mission, the clutching moment, the cool combat, and most important – the awesome villains. With that in mind, down here is the list of top 10 best video games about Batman.

10. BATMAN: THE TELLTALE SERIES

BATMAN: THE TELLTALE SERIES

This game features pretty good 3D animated graphics for Batman and his villains in the game. However, that is not the main purpose of the game. Telltale Games' ambition for this title is to dig deeper into the story life of Bruce Wayne. He was born as a normal people like any of us, but then he rises to become one of the best superheroes this world has even seen, surpassing all limitations of a human being.

Although the plot for this game has some dull parts, this is still a pretty good game for the fans of Bruce Wayne to start his or her video game journey.

Let's roll back to the old school of gaming. This video game was produced way back in 1994 by Konami, and this game was aimed just for old school game consoles like Super Nintendo Entertainment System. The graphics of this title is also from the last century, so we can expect much from it. But this game still feature good plot and some cool combat in the old school type.

This game is a famous fighting game for the DC universe as a whole. The Injustice series is without a doubt a good series for the whole DC universe, as it features all the characters of this comic universe pretty well. The narrative way of this game is unique, as it tells the story via fighting game genre. Some may like this, some may not, but we all can agree that the 2D and 3D graphic mixture of this game is pretty damn cool.

BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT
BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT

The final game in the Batman: Arkham video game series. This is a pretty good game, but it relies too much on the Batmobile combats. Too many combats in Batmobile makes the players feel fed up with this kind of combat. About other things of the game, this game is still good.

The next part of INJUSTICE: GODS AMONG US, so this title is not much different from the first title of the Injustice video game series.
