10 Most Underrated Batman Video Games You've Never Played

9. Batman: Rise Of Sin Tzu

Dropping the platforming and semi open-world adventuring that sank most other Batman games at the time, 2003's Rise of Sin Tzu focused instead on straight-up superhero brawling.

Putting you in charge of either the Caped Crusader, Robin, Nightwing or Batgirl to clean up the streets of Gotham City, this early PS2 game attempted to distance itself from the near series destroying Batman: The Dark Tomorrow by going back to its roots to deliver a simple yet effective Batman button masher.

Taking its visual cues from the animated series, Rise of Sin Tzu's striking interpretation of the Gotham's underworld also marks a refreshing change of pace from the movie-based games on this list, giving players a more colourful and stylistic version of the Dark Knight than you'd usually find on console.

Although it's only a mere 12 levels long, Rise of Sin Tzu has you blasting through all the iconic Gotham City locations in a short but sweet Batman tale that's even more fun with friends.
