Review Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate (3DS)
Throw away the key
Being ambitious is no easy task. Playing a full, big-budget console game on a portable system is likely in every gamer’s wildest fantasies, but due to hardware limitations, we’re often left disappointed by half-hearted ports. Armature Studio, in its infinite wisdom, recognized this concern and chose to take this one in a...

News Batman: Arkham Origins and Blackgate Delayed in Europe
Only on Nintendo systems and PC, though
When it comes to the upcoming Batman: Arkham Origins, its relationship with the Wii U has been rather frosty, which is appropriate as the Dark Knight will be beating on thugs in a Winter setting. Nintendo's system is missing out on the multiplayer mode — which itself is a first for the series — and it's...

About The Game
Batman: Arkham Origins features an expanded Gotham City and introduces an original prequel storyline set several years before the events of Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City, the first two critically acclaimed games of the franchise.

So exciting.. I hope the gameplay is pure 2D platformer (with blast!). I Haven't play Batman game since SNES -time (LEGO Batman game does not count).
I am so excited! im saving up for pokemon x&y and batman! im gonna buy both of them since they come out on the same day! and I agree with you marakassi lego batman doesn't count!
Head members from Retro Studios are going to take part in this game, so you guys may see some Metroid-related things in it. I'm a bit disappointed about the head members leaving Nintendo for a bit; the possibility of a new Metroid game seems to get lower and lower.

It looks really good. It will make the wait for a 3DS Metroid easier.
I am going to get this Friday! I can't wait, because I loved the home console verison for Wii U.
