Lego Batman 3, like other Lego games before, explores a wealth of characters and locales from the universe it focuses on. Unfortunately, it doesn't come together as well as it could have.

The best way to describe LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham is fun, but frustrating. If you are a PC player, you'll run into a ton of glitches and controller issues and game crashes and just general unpleasant technical fidgeting.
Holy exploding LEGOs man!
Tons of content; Genuinely entertaining story; Gadget wheel is fresh and new
Repetitive combat; Graphics are just good enough; Linear campaign
Lego Batman 3 has all the ingredients of the other, enjoyable, Lego superhero games, but is let down by clunky controls, poor signposting and questionable translations of well-known comic book personalities.
The old-fashioned Lego smash-em-up model still works; The excellent rendering of Lego structures; zany; creative humour
Too easy to get stuck on one level for 15 minutes; Repetitive; button-mashing combat; Fiddly controls
Pretty much everything you know from the previous titles is here. There is the general story to guide you through the first time, that unlocks and introduces the core characters. Again there are a few hours of entertainment here and it doesn't outstay its welcome.
Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham is as much a game about Batman as it is not. In fact, it's about as close as developer Traveller's Tales has come to producing a full-on Lego Justice League video game.
More than 150 characters to unlock and play; Classic Lego formula is still as fun as ever; A celebration of everything great about Batman; Loads of humor and charm
Poor AI and technical issues hamper the experience; Conflicting ideas make the overall direction feel confused
Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham may not breathe new life to the Lego series, but it sure gives us a nice reminder on how fun the games can be. Batman in Space sounds nuts on paper, but Lego manages to make it work and even seem plausible, while being hilarious.
We could not load properly in the PC, requires high speed broadband connection, to make the game to operate needed 3GB data download. So it's not such launch & play. Experience is pretty frustrating without the proper IT infrastructure and compute knowledge.
Disappointing after Lego batman 2 and Lego marvel. Very limited free roam, standard level design all makes it feel a step back to the likes of batman 1. The suits are easier as you can change in the fly but you sit there trying to remember who's suit does what.
LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham is another solid entry in the franchise, thanks to a series of new additions that help keep things fresh.
