Riddle me this, riddle me that, who’s celebrating 30 years of the big, black bat? This week, we once again invited our friend Vito to talk about the 30th anniversary of Batman Forever and all of the tie-in games. For us, this was the Bat-mania of our childhood that was larger than Batman ’89.  The movie was released in June 1995 and we revisit the history of the movie and everything that led to Warner Bros. giving directing duties to Joel Schumacher after the financial failure of Batman Returns. The movie’s drastic change in tone was obvious and was an edict by WB  to make Batman more appealing to a younger audience and that’s exactly what it did.  And with Batman Forever came tie-in games.. we revisit all four versions that were released on Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Game Gear, and GameBoy and a game most people have never played or heard of - Batman Forever: The Arcade Game for the PS1 and Saturn. You don’t need much of Batman’s detective skills to uncover that the original console versions were terrible but you might be surprised about the arcade game! Batman Forever and its games hold you, thrill you, kiss you, and ultimately kill you so join us as we dive into Gotham once more.  Email us:  LegionGamingPod@gmail.com Instagram: LegionGamingPod
