This Batman game reminds me of Frank Miller's masterpiece "The Dark Knight Returns". But this game looks rediculous. I know "The Dark Knight Returns" had a beefed up Batman, but this Batman must've been juicing himself up with Captain America's super soldier serum and some anibollic steroids. Joker looked okay.
I'm guessing it was just a general Batman game, and would've had nothing to do with the movies if it was finished and went into production. And yes, it is awful, very, very, awful.
@areyoustilllistening Wow. The nosedive in quality from a game like Batman Returns to this is unforgivable. At least Software Creations had enough sense to realize how bad the game was and bail on it. Amazing find though. Thanks for posting this.
Hmm... Stolen Streets of Rage coding or the other way around?

They were creating a BATMAN game and couldn't come up with a better name for the enemies than "ALFRED"?

Looks like a terrible Final Fight rip-off.

Was this supposed to be based on the 1989 film or just the general mythology of Batman? Either way the game looks awful.

I like how all attacks Batman takes are on the chin, hardly flinches, and is indestructible. At least some parts are accurate.

What crazy that these fat dudes look just like the ones in the first stage in double dragon 3 arcade.

1:39 What 's up with that?! The Joker did absolutely nothing and looked like a big yellow belly whenever he got hit, what a joke!
Hehe I love the names that they use for the baddies, it reminds me of Batman Forever :).
One of them is even called Alfred. Wow, he must have taken some serious steroids to end up looking like that!
Anyway, thank you for sharing this shitty game with us, man!
By the way, is the rom actually available anywhere? Just curious :).
