With the release of Arkham Asylum and it's subsequent high marks with reviewers I'd love to discuss good and not so good comic video games from the past and those we wish we could play. So here's some links for the new Batman:
Batman: Arkham Asylum
Gamespot Video Review
"Behold the greatest comic-book game of all-time!" - IGN

The only other good comic ports I can remember are Batman & Robin and X-Men for the Genesis.

I enjoyed Justice League Heroes for the PS2.

I really enjoyed the X-Men Legends games. But I haven't played many comic book games, because typically they suck. And it seems Batman is especially guilty of this, which is why Arkham seems like such a win.

X-men CLone Wars for Genesis was great. I vaguely recall a WOlverine: Adamantium Rage for the SNES, that was pretty good. X_men legends 2 is pretty spiffy, and Marvel Ultimate Alliance is good. In the context of WHEN they came out, the Superman and SPiderman games for teh Atari 2600 were pretty good...Superman being a lot better than SPidey, sadly.

Hell yah, Atari! They were both good, but Superman was da bomb!
