tep into the shadows of Gotham City's perilous criminal underworld as DC Comics' legendary Dark Knight in Batman Begins. This stealth-action platformer for the Game Boy Advance explores the origins of the Batman legend and the Dark Knight's emergence as a force for good in Gotham. Gamers will play as both Bruce Wayne and his alter-ego, Batman, hunting evil-doers from the shadows, using strength, intellect and an array of high tech gadgets to fight the sinister forces that threaten the city.

From the halls of Arkham Asylum and the alleys of Gotham City to an ancient monastery high in the Himalayas, Batman Begins delivers a fine interactive companion to director Christopher Nolan's reinvention of the Dark Knight in the movie of the same name.

You're able to perform combo moves when you engage in hand-to-hand combat. You'll also have access to an arsenal of gadgets from your utility belt. Pressing the Select Button cycles through your available weapons.

But sometimes force isn't the best course of action. Hide yourself in the shadows or within the environment and then attack with a stealth edge.

The graphics have a sharp look, especially the well-defined environments. The game itself, though very well done, doesn't break new ground and is shorter than most.
