Are We Interested in Batman: Arkham Origins?

IGN - Rich and Ryan react to the news that another game in the Arkham saga is on the way. Do we want another rookie Batman story?

hopping, they push this game to 2014

iGAM3R-VIII4032d ago

I hope you mistyped that and meant 2013

ApolloTheBoss4032d ago

Since Rockstar isn't working on it, could that mean they're working on Arkham 3 for next-gen? Or even better the world's first awesome Super-Man game?!

PopRocks3594032d ago

I assume you mean Rocksteady?

I'm all for approaching this with an open mind. We don't even have a trailer yet, and a new developer doesn't always spell disaster. I just hope Kevin Conroy is still the voice of Batman.

ApolloTheBoss4032d ago (Edited 4032d ago )

Yes yes I know sorry. Typos happen.

And yes Kevin HAS to come back.

It would be awesome if they made a Justice League game to possibly co-incide with the upcoming JL film.

I think having one Batman game after another could be a bad thing (see COD and Assassins Creed).

Arkham 3 could work, but it would need to be even more different and new and unique to origins.

DarthJay4032d ago

It's Batman. Of course people want it. The template has been made. Anyone can handle it at this point. I do agree I'd like to see it pushed back so it launches on next gen platforms. I am going to be highly annoyed if all these games release a few weeks before the new consoles.

Vandamme214032d ago

I'm excited and worried at the same...I wasn't a fan of hulk ultimate destruction and prototype.The game is being made by the creator of those two games.

GamerElite4032d ago

Awesome bad guy in Expedanlbles 2, Van Dam. Keep it real

abzdine4032d ago

i dont know what to think about the fact it's another studio developing this one.
except 1 or 2 Batmans on 16-bits consoles, only Rocksteady could give a real identity to this franchise. Let's wait for gameplay videos before we see if we're interested or not.

The best Batman Arkham game still isn’t on PS5, and that’s a problem

Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League is almost here, but I can't revisit the best Arkhamverse game on PS5 without sacrificing quality.

Not a fan of Orgins. Blame it on the absence of Conroy & Hamill. Blame it on the lack of atmosphere compared to Asylm. Hell blame it the devs thst dicked over Wii U owners like me that purchased the game only for support be dropped as a thank you to me. It's better than Knight but that's not saying much. I don't care for that entry either.

Rebel_Scum99d ago

tbh buying a game like that for WiiU should’ve been an obvious non-purchase when it existed on better hardware.

Cacabunga99d ago

Origins is amazing..
my favorite Batman is Batman and Robin on mega drive.. an HD REMASTER of that would still look glorious

ZeekQuattro99d ago

I got it launch. Kinda hard to go back. I'm supposed to know they were going to drop support months after the fact. 🤣

Exvalos99d ago

You sound like a salty fanboy, that it didn't come to your precious plastic of choice. It's not the developers fault Nintendo continues making underpowered hardware. It's our fault because we keep buying it. Yes I say (we) I'm part of the problem as well.

ZeekQuattro99d ago

I have a PS3 and a Wii U. How was I a salty fanboy? I bought the game on the system I wanted it for.

Rebel_Scum99d ago

Nah my comment has nothing to do with whether you’d know or not that they’d drop support.

Buying any AAA game of that era for a WiiU you should’ve known you’d be sacrificing graphics and load times.

LucasRuinedChildhood99d ago

It's solid but Origins is definitely not the best Arkham game.

LoveSpuds99d ago

Smacks of hyperbole to me, talk about clutching at straws to create some drama around PS5!!

generic-user-name98d ago

Titles like these are designed to get you to come in, go to their comment section and tell them how they're so wrong so they can boost their numbers.

Phoenix7699d ago

Even though its not the best arkham game in the series, its still an enjoyable game in its own right. What it do really well at though, was the crime investigations scenes. Which imo, were the best of the franchise.

goldwyncq99d ago

I don’t know about best game but it definitely has the best story and boss fights.

boing199d ago

Never played it and recently I've finally tried it via cloud on psn. It's not the best for sure, but it ain't bad either.

Batman: Arkham Origins - Open World Busy Work that Doesn't Hold Up 10 Years Later

Batman: Arkham Origins launched 10 years ago today, and sadly doesn't stand the test of time as well as its predecessors.

Petebloodyonion180d ago

I fail to grasp why this title is worse compared to Arkham City (according to the article) as the author didn't provide any argument to explain why aside from that it felt the bigger map compared to Arkham Asylum made the experience less tight.
More importantly, the author seems like he never played Arkham City since he described the game as linear (alongside Asylum).

The Unjustly Forgotten Batman: Arkham Origins Deserves A Resurgence

Despite certain flaws, Batman: Arkham Origins is a splendid entry in the legendary Arkham series and deserves better than being forsaken.

lellkay293d ago (Edited 293d ago )

It's the worst of the three in my opinion, but still really enjoyable. Definitely underated and gets far more crap that it deserves.

Should be included with the other Arkham games in the bundle.

Demetrius293d ago

I'm honestly enjoying it alot, my first time playing since I just decided to get a Xbox 360 slim for 65$, I cop some other gems too tho, I went into Arkham origins not expecting better than Arkham city but it does deliver plus the guy who voices batman did a good job aiming for the young Bruce impression
