Batman could have been a rythem game!

[The Kangaroo]

With over 2.5 million copies shipped, nobody's in any doubt that it's good but it could have been worse, much worse.

According to GameInformer, the combat went through several variations: "The first one being a full rhythm action game! The second one was prototyped in 2D, which popped up whenever you got into a fight, and involved colored circles bashing into each other. This actually formed the basis of the final system."

All I can say is: "Holy game ruining game mechanic Batman!"
