It feels like it might be a tad short, but its what i like best in a game - its great fun :)

Joker really does steal the show though. Cant remember his name but the voice actor is Luke Skywalker :g

I have a buddy who rented/bought this (not sure) and he loved it to death. I'm looking to buy a new PS3 game b4 Drake2 comes out, so right now its between this, blazblue or Burnout Paradise (since its cheaper).

I played the demo all the way to the end. That's rare for me, so I must have liked it. I won't buy it at full price though.

I have it to. The fightings good but its way to short. The challenges are pretty hard though (or maybe i suck at it :D) but id recommend renting before buying just to be sure.

alright, finished it this morning. It really is short.

I dont rent games, so no idea how long you keep them for. If its over a week and your good at fighting games, you could finish it easy.

still, itll take me a long time to get properly bored of the fighting challenges.

Sorry to say, No. Don't get me wrong, it is a GREAT game. But if you get real into it, like I did, then you're done in two days. Unless you whore out on trophies, but that only adds a day, if that. Replay value is not up there. But just as one of my favorite reviewers stated, just when the game starts to get old or boring, it's over. You've beaten it. So good on them for that "strategy" if you can call it that. Definitely worth a rental though.

his name is mark hamill, and he was the voice of the joker in the excellent animated series.

And he was totally unrecognisable, to me at least; he seemed to change his voice completely. Sorta like when Rob Paulsen did the voice of Pinky, in Pinky and the Brain. Paulsen is the guy who's Mr. Opportunity in the Honda commercials.
