How does episode 1 of Batman rank against previous Telltale Premieres?
After Minecraft and Michonne, this is the first Telltale series where I'll be jumping in on the month to month waits, so I feel it's hard for me to judge.
But how do you guys see Batman episode 1 against GoT, TFTB, TWD and TWAU?

Solid intro, I wish they would have opened up with some sweet tunes like tales from the borderlands and michhone did. But it's Batman so I can see why they didn't.
For me, it's the third best Telltale premiere, right after Tales From The Borderlands as 1st and The Wolf Among Us as 2nd.
Tales From The Borderlands>The other ones
I still feel like TWAU was the best first episode. But this was very solid and set up all of the storylines very well.
I really enjoyed the first episode of the series. I think there was good balance between action and dialogue. I especially liked solving mysteries, it added a nice layer to the gameplay. As far as how it compares to other games: I think it's somewhere in the middle. TFTBL is my favorite intro, followed by TWAU, and then the Walking Dead S1. After that, maybe this one. I didn't feel like I was truly in control of the QTE, so that has something to do with my perception of the intro. I missed a few buttons but the actions still carried, anyway.
For the Telltale games I have played, I'd say the order goes:
Zer0 Sum > Realm of Shadows > Faith > A New Day > All That Remains > Iron From Ice > In Too Deep > The Order of the Stone
I'm curious. Will you be uploading your batman playthrough today? I'm curious to see how it runs compared to my specs.
With my work schedule for this week, I'm probably not going to be able to try and replay episode 1 until Friday, maybe Saturday. I originally did try to record my initial play through, but due to the problems, I stopped about half way into the episode. If I can get it working properly, I will try again and upload that to Youtube.
Alright.
Here's my list
Man... The Walking Dead just doesn't hold its own in first episodes...
