Kind of. Have you ever played any of the Arkham games? Or Shadow of Mordor? Or Assassin's Creed? Or Saints Row IV? Same idea. Open world, story missions, side missions, basically sandbox - but with less options. This has nowehere near the amount of things to do that GTA does. This is mostly linear, with collectibles to find and side villains that you don't HAVE to go after.
The Batmobile ads a nice touch, but it's more used for puzzle solving (how do I get this wall down?) than getting from place to place - although that is definitely an option. The racing stuff comes in with the Riddler...he makes you go through these race tracks and...ugh...I hate it. Then again, I hate games where I have to drive. But this car can morph into a tank, so it gets a pass.
TDIRunner:
I actually havn't played those games, but I think I get what you mean. I might actually enjoy this game although I notice that it's not on the PS3. It seems that game developers are finally getting away from developing for both consoles. I have a feeling that the PS3 and 360 will probably be dropped after the end of the year.
Thom Grayson:
I too, have a shiny new Batman!
Batman Arkham Knight

I hope so. Collecting for multiple current generations is too expensive, and I end up buying stuff I know will never even get the wrapper off.

I saw a commercial for the Lego Jurassic World game and it looks like it's available for just about every system (PS3, PS4, Vita, Wii U, 3DS, 360 and One). I thought it was funny because I remember when the original Jurassic Park was released for just about every system (NES, SNES, GB, SMS, Genesis, Sega CD, Game Gear), each game was almost completely different from the others. Not so much today. :-X
That also makes me want to collect less because I like having all games from a certain series (Jurassic Park for example), but I just hate the idea of buying the same game for 2 or 3 systems let alone 7 systems.
