Starting Lego Batman 2, I welcomed myself with a challenge: try and get more goons each level. Yes, the game keeps track of that, and many other things, too. You can even drive around to different parts of Gotham City to look for gold brick and studs!
Everything in Lego Batman 2 feels like the developers started making this game right after they finished Lego Batman 1, it's so perfect. In one level, in order to save Gotham from Arkham Asylum's inmates, you have to use Robin's Acrobatic Suit to climb over the acid/poison gas, then use Batman's Power Suit to knock over a building to stop Catwoman, than change suits to stop other villains, and keep you interested. Nothing is used too much, or too little. It's a perfect balance.
The voice acting is very good, too. Now that the characters speak in full sentences, you understand what's going on. a few laughs can even be made from the script, from Superman's "I can see you smirking in there Batman!...X-ray vision!" to the Joker's constant jokes about what's happening.
Of course, the reason it is a nine, not a ten is because the game isn't without faults. First of all, Alfred's "Excuse me sir,"s and "One more thing, sir,"s get annoying, but to hear the good dialogue you can't mute it. Another problem is some puzzles(like ones where you need to use the Magnetic Suit) you must be a certain distance away to use it, or need to smash things from ten feet away to continue and get the Bat- something. I only encountered these issues a few times, so it's not that bad. The other issue is, well, it's pretty easy. But fun. Very fun.
