Then again, with the amount of awe-inspiring setpieces and characterisations -- most notably mastered by the late Heath Ledger -- our hopes for a game studio to finally step up and offer a creation of close-to-equal worth were naively never met.
Indeed, there's nary a Dark Knight tie-in game yet to be officially announced -- and there's every chance there never will be.
Sure, there's a LEGO Batman title on its way, but some of us grew tired of Traveller's Tales' formula long before LEGO Indiana Jones. And while there's a mobile phone Dark Knight tie-in game, it definitely leaves a lot to be desired in matching the nitty gritty feel of Christopher Nolan's second Batman piece on a 176 pixels wide and 204 pixels tall screen. Meanwhile, the less said about the online, flash-based Gotham City Street Chase, the better.
If there was a well and proper Dark Knight game though, one can only begin to ponder who'll take the development helm. From past, present, defunct and rumoured future developers of a currently hypothetical Batman title, who would you want to be in the Dark Knight's game developer's chair?
Cast your beliefs in a makeshift game-developing Harvey Dent here, while a running tab on the results -- assumingly courtesy of an intrusive feed via Wayne Enterprises -- can be viewed here. It's all part of the (Poll of the Week) plan.
I missed the traditional discussion about the film on the drive home.
