As article confirms, there's also a 3DS/Vita version coming! Looks like it's a different game though.

Root4028d ago

Not made by Rocksteady and it's a prequel

No thanks...

MariaHelFutura4028d ago (Edited 4028d ago )

Good news is Rocksteady is probably doing something for the PS4 and 720.

Root4028d ago

Well hopefully it's either a new game OR if it's a new Batman game it will continue from Arkham City.

I hate prequels.....it's just a stupid excuse to get out of trying to come up with a creative way to push the story forward after their last game

MariaHelFutura4028d ago

I personally think Rocksteady should make a Adam West style Batman game, still keeping the same style as the Arkham games. They reference that series alot in the Arkham games as is.

Wintersun6164028d ago

@Root,

But even though they don't progress the story forwards, they can just as well expand it and fill gaps from the past. Those stories, if done well enough can be just as good as the sequels or original games. For example Deus Ex: Human Revolution, MGS3, GoW: Ghost of Sparta..

daggertoes834028d ago

Come on man. All stories have to start somewhere

vallencer4028d ago

It's nice to see that you still don't give any game a chance before it's even out. I'm glad you haven't changed root :).

You haven't seen gameplay or anything from the game it could in fact be better than arkham city and asylum for all you know. But because it isn't made by rocksteady oh and it's a prequel you don't want to give it a chance. That is your opinion though and that's fine. My opinion though is it's a damn shame you limit yourself so much.

Root4028d ago (Edited 4028d ago )

I limit myself....LOL

No I don't end up wasting my money when I see a franchise I like getting something which isn't needed.

They haven't even made three games and they already give the Arkham games to another developer until waiting till Rocksteady wanted to come back to it.

If I don't like prequels in anything then yeah I can judge because I know what I like/dislike....especially if Rocksteady aren't making it, one of my favourite developers this gen

But yeah keep getting p***** off my someone elses opinion. That will get you no where in life.

vallencer4028d ago

Haha root i heart you :).

The best part is you always think I'm pissed off at your opinions and I promise you I'm really not. It's just a little sad that you judge so harshly yet you call yourself a gamer. I'm not saying you have to buy it. All I'm saying is you should give it a chance and see videos on it and read more on it that's all.

In the end you're going to do what you want and I'm totally ok with that i just like commenting on your comments because you are always so negative. I realy don't think i've ever seen a positive response from you.

I hope you have a great day sir :).

listenkids4028d ago (Edited 4028d ago )

Gears of war judgement and God of war ascension of recent would like words with you. Hope you enjoy ignoring a probably excellent game.

Edit: Thought I would include the behemoth Halo 4 into the recent list, foolish creature.

Tultras4027d ago

Root, making up a prequel is not lazy, infact they are trying to push the story forward with it, it gives it... more meaning.

Making a prequel is not lazy, since they have to make stuff for it aswell.

Is there any actual proof of the game and its premise? Gamefocus doesn't even list any sources

And it's not made by Rocksteady? NOOOOoooooo.....

Vinc3604028d ago

Well, Gamefocus IS a source. They've been around for a while.

iNcRiMiNaTi4028d ago (Edited 4028d ago )

It's on the latest issue of GameInformer

http://www.gameinformer.com...

I'll prolly skip this, it's not made by rocksteady and the creative director for this game worked on The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction and Prototype which are nowhere near as good as the first two Arkham games

jc485734028d ago (Edited 4028d ago )

no Rocksteady NO BUY. This may turn into some generic Batman game.

darren_poolies4028d ago

The key word there is 'may'. Give it a chance before writing it off like that jeez.

ILive4028d ago

To many games to release close to the end of the year anyway and ps4 is a day one for me. I dont think I will be picking this up at all. I hope it turns out great.

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_Scum95d ago

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

Cacabunga95d ago

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

ZeekQuattro95d 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. 🤣

Exvalos95d 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.

ZeekQuattro95d 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_Scum95d 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.

LucasRuinedChildhood95d ago

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

LoveSpuds95d ago

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

generic-user-name94d 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.

Phoenix7695d 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.

goldwyncq95d ago

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

boing195d 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.

Petebloodyonion176d 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.

lellkay289d ago (Edited 289d 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.

Demetrius289d 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
