The PC version of the new Batman game received so many complaints that the game was buggy that services such as Steam had pulled the game and apparently the game was never built to work on PC in the first place. Some problems gamers encountered included freezing screens, massive lag, and more and the developers have issued full refunds to everyone who had bought a copy of the game and it's unclear as to whether the game will ever be released again for PC.

Have you bought a copy of the game for PC or know of any of the problems? What are your thoughts?

I think that if they knew it would never had worked, they shouldn't have released it at all.

I got the game for PS4 and played it a bit. It was fantastic, but console gaming isn't my cup of tea so I wanted to get a taste of the PC version. My friend got it, let me come over, and we experienced the travesty.

Well, experience as far as the first five minutes. On the menu, the game crashed. Starting a new game, it crashed. Final try; game crashes five seconds after starting a new game. This was the first day the game was out, so I put in some hope that it would be patched. I only barely managed to negotiate a deal of patience from my friend. He's waiting......impatiently.

I recommend people just wait for a fix- the game is amazing and deserves attention. However, there should definitely be some scrutiny for Rocksteady over this.

Boxia : That's what you get when a game comes out for every system at once. If they had done what Rockstar did with GTA V, probably would have been great. Did your friend get the refund already?

zanderlex : He refunded the game, of course. He was REALLY mad, and I had to make it clear the game was worth waiting over. He accepted it.

It's critical, though, the story of such a failure's getting spread. Even on launch day, it's inexcusable.

I heard it was a third party that was dealing with the PC version which I think Rocksteady should have just done it themselves. I am glad they took it off steam as I know a number of companies that wouldn't do that. I am glad they apologized but this shouldn't have happened at all. This won't do well for them as I already know a few people are not gonna buy it now thanks to this. Other than that the game looks great and I would get it if I had a PS4/Xbox One.

I don't see why people are surprised about how awful the PC port was... Literally every recent batman game has had a terrible pc port at launch....

Just a small suggestion to all those that care.. Only pre-order games you really care about... like 1 or 2 a year at tops.. and make sure to read the reviews as well.. It takes minutes and can save you money(if you play the game for more than 2 hours) and disappointment.
