Still yet to pick it up but completed loved the second game, actually never got round to playing the first.

I played a bit of Origins at Eurogamer and it felt very familiar which can only be a good thing!

Really need to go pick it up, have you got the collectors edition?

Yes I got the CE. It is really good.

You should play the first game if you ever can set aside some time for it. Best one I think.

Did like the look of the first but a friend kind of put me off then when the second come out I thought let's go for it and completely loved it. Probably one of the most enjoyable games I have played so guess I should give the first a go!

Have anyone played the Portable version of this game? Batman Arkham Origins Blackgate...
Is is only me that thought that Blackgate actually is better than the console game? The game is very well structured... the world and exploration are really well done and combat felt totally like the arkham games, though still a bit easy to win fights against multiple enemies (and the stealth elements are still present).... I was really impressed with this game, so I don't really understand the mixed criticism

I just found out that some of the key people behind the metroid prime games made Batman Blackgate! No wonder the maps are so well designed! It's definitely way better metroidvania game than that Castlevania 3ds...

Did not play it... put off by the fact it was held back by being one the 3DS.

Could have been a small open world or even an Arkham Asylum style if they did it for Vita only or made a separate Vita one. Too bad really.

I'm telling you.. The metroidvania style of this game totally fits the arkham games motif... I didn't think it lost much by not being an open-world game... It's just more focused and streamlined... I didn't think it's better than the first two arkham city games, but definitely better than Batman Arkham Origins on console. Or maybe it's just me cause I really enjoy metroid games lol

I am sure it was a good game and actually I am not a big fan of open world on a lot of things. Trustfully i want Batman games to go back to being more focused like the first one was.


I am just saying I think it lost potential from being made on 3DS and ported. Any game that is multi-plat is held back by the limitations of the lesser console.

I do see your point, but it will be tough to see any third party portable game being made solely for Vita... The hardware is amazing, but to tell you the truth I think even sony productions for Vita kinda suck, because the irony is that most of those games are basically lesser games of the ps3 and soon ps4.

True, Sony will keep finding it and PS4 might help.

But as far as lesser then PS3... you need to understand the only game that went through a proper dev cycle was Mercenary and it is easily better then gen 1 games on PS3. I think some people expect Vita to match 7th gen PS3 games out the gate.

But if it gets no love then the dev tools will never really improve except for first party and if that happens only it will be slow.
