The game itself actually doesn’t have you really controlling “Batman” at all. Let me start by saying, fans of Batman the Animated Series will love to know that the cut-scenes in the game were made with the same voice actors and style of the cartoon, and it doesn’t recycle anything from the show either, so it’s all new material made just for the game! This has earned the SEGA CD title as having “the lost episode” from the series, and that in itself is enough for most Bat-fans to get excited about! However, that’s about where the excitement ends, I’m afraid. "Good Will Hunting" is a good production, with solid craftsmanship in all departments - thanks to the creativity of Damon and Affleck.All these question mark trucks can mean only one thing… lazy developers! Man the stick shift, Robin! These are two talented young men, with perseverance and how wonderful for them to have achieved such success while still youthful and full of vitality. Still, one can't really call it luck, for both Damon and Affleck "paid their dues" - and success did not just fall into their laps. The story behind getting the script sold and produced on the terms of the writers' preferences is fascinating. While the basic situation is really quite far-fetched, it is made to seem plausible-again, the mark of good, convincing writing.

This is a real tribute to the cast, director, and of course, the script. What is rather remarkable is that one isn't aware of the dramatic limitations comprising the structure.

What "Hunting" essentially consists of is some two dozen conversational scenes, bridged together with short transitions of physical activity. Yet, the casting is so well done, and the acting at such good level, that interest is nicely maintained.


The introduction and exposition sections are enormously engrossing, after which script peaks and rather coasts along the rest of the way. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck scored quite a success with their interesting and entertaining script.
