correction, this isnt set as Batman's first encounter of Joker himself, since you dont even see anything origin wise of Joker been Red Hood, he's already established as Joker. but as for the incident involving years later of (Mark Hamill ol Joker) setting a fire to Blackgate is referenced in the MP developed by Splash Damage is what i was refering to. though as bewildering still, in Blackgate , game are events after Origins. Grundy was not known to Batman til AC /watch?v=tot5XbX068w
Is it smart to keep all of the bad guys in one place like i mean it says that all of the bad guys have broken out of the prison and coming after batman
are you forgetting the rumors the thugs were talking about down in the subway tunnels just before the central station, they confirm no one known about Solomon Grundy, as well as Penguin himself said when he say to Batman "I found him down there when i bought this place Comes in handy. " in Arkham City the game (post-Origins in Gotham City) Grundy's discovery is in AC. & you say as to why i'm incorrect is invalid considering anyone smart can figure out how to defeat Grundy. blast his power source
I suppose that's true. It's just kind of odd trying to follow the time line when it's made by a different company. One thing I'm certain of is the gadget use being out of sync. He has the Grapple-Launcher in Origins but in AC it was still a prototype oO
also given that PAX takes place these days,don't we get some new info on Origins too?i'd like to finally see some Deathstroke gameplay or a gameplay trailer of him.i hope that private demo goes public soon
i'm pretty sure you can find certain spoilers in this trailer.for instance i wonder if the black inmate with claws could be an assassin from origins.i see someone mentioned bronze tiger.also i don't see deathstroke here,meaning that maybe he escaped during origins or maybe he teamed up with batman somehow and that's why he wasn't arrested and locked up.kind of like catwoman in arkham city(which would also fit given that deathstroke will be playable).but these are just speculations
I'm not sure, so anyone can correct me, but. I dont thin Arkham was build first, before some years in the batmans storyline. Blackgate was the prison in some time, but shortly after Arkham was builded. That and Blackgate mostly only contained thugs and killers, while Asylum are for the real baddies, like Joker, Bane, Mr Freeze and so on. Just a theory, so dont take it as anwser!
The Fire at Blackgate is not this event, that happened right before Asylum. Joker is involved because Origins is the first time he meets Batman. As for Solomon Grundy, batman knew him before Arkham City. Hell even Firefly was mentioned as Black mask's personal enforcer in the Arkham comic books. point is, anything can happen in a 7 year gap.
like penguin said: i found him down there when i bought this place. i'm not sure if penguin owns the iceberg lounge yet, but this might be the first encounter and grundy reincarnates under the lounge.
Again this is only to our knowledge. Remember Batman is always refining and improving on his gadgets, so the one in Arkham City was a prototype yes, but it also could have been a new design for something he already had just stronger and more efficient.
In all Honesty that only proves two things: 1. Penguin didn't know about him, and two WB Montreal did state they were creating their "own continuity". I'll give you that alto of this doesn't make sense ( hell even the bat grapple speed boost was a "prototype" in Arkham City), but maybe there will be an explanation. We will just have to wait and see.
I don't think that might be entirely true. While playing through Arkham City, you hear a lot of the inmates talking about the monster Penguin keeps beneath the iceberg lounge, it was clear that none of "them" knew about Grundy but that doesn't necessarily mean that he wasn't known to Batman.
The side stories of Arkham City say that Ra's al Ghul experimented on Grundy with his Lazarus Pit before discarding him, which is how Penguin found him. I think Grundy's appearance in this will be unrelated.
Everyone is doing such amazing voice acting... and then you have the guy doing Commissioner Gordon. Seriously, for having a prison full of hostages, he seems pretty calm, don'tcha think?
I never actual heard that. If so its still possible. Its not necessarily about the asylum nor do you even have to see it during the game I just think the game could end with the opening of the asylum in a cut scene or just a news flash or something.
If I remember correctly, this is gonna be one of his first encounters with Joker, but I can be wrong. In any case, the game is played some years before the 2 other games, so things are kinda diferent.
Its not too bad for a Hand-Held. I can see where you're coming from, though. I kinda like the Comic Book looking Cut-Scenes. But, like you, I'm just gonna get the Main Arkham Origins. Maybe I'll just watch a Blackgate Walkthrough whenever I finish the story for the Main game.
my thoughta exactly. asides Penguin and the rest (not mentioning Joker). i thought these were events before what happen in Arkham City itself, but the game play and story says different. i figured Joker would be involved considering he said in AC how he got his crew out with a fire at Blackgate Prison. and Solomon Grundy ? indeed, Batman didnt know about him til Arkham City. all this aside. i was told i shouldnt complain LOL.
Between Arkham Origins on home consoles (PS3, Xbox 360 e.t.c) and Battlefield 4, I'd say Arkham Origins. Between Battlefield 4 and this Arkham Origins for 3DS and Vita, I'd say Battlefield 4 (even though I don't like those kind of games or even played a Battlefield). I like the look of the game and I think I'll enjoy, but if I wasn't such a massive Batman fan, I doubt I would feel the same way. If you liked the other Battlefields, then definitely go with that. :)
makes a lot of sense, actually. only problem is that wb games montreal clearly stated the game wont be an origin for batman NOR an origin for arkham asylum. so...
I don't think that's quite right. I know that Arkham opened up very early with Amadaeus Arkham, but I don't think Joker and Co. were sent there initially. At the very least, that seems to be the case in this game's universe. Either way, thank you for being polite about it.
When i dont think it is the origin of arkham i mean the structure for the island dont seem like it could happen and even if it was would they build a new blackgate?
Or maybe this game takes around the time they were reconstructing the asylum, you know, Sharp actually said in one of the chronicles you can find on Arkham Asylum that they reconstructed the Asylum and I suppose that took some time.
Better question yet. Wtf, is grundy doing in blackgate?! Batman was supposed to have faced him in the iceburg lounge for the first and the last time. This screws up the Arkhamverse big time...
I am way excited to get this game. I will get the one for xbox and this one. The only reason why I wouldn't get this game for 3ds is if it got horrible reviews. And this is going to be a totally different game from the xbox and ps3 versions. So you can get 2 different batman games in the same time period!!!!
just wait till the game comes out then judge on it i remember back in 2011 fans were skeptical about arkham city but it turned out to be a great sequel
Considering how early into Batmans career, The cops havent seen criminals like the Joker or Black Mask as Super villian yet, so they are putting them with the normal criminals until they find a place to put them.
Well, it's a bit early in the Batman career for it to be an average day. An average day would be Arkham Asylum, because it's gotten to the point in time where things have been happening.
You're assuming that's the only place Grundy has every been, All Penguin said is that he found him there. We don't the events that caused Grundy to be trapped under the lounge.
Maybe Batman didn't think he was insane enough in the early days of their relationship to warrant him going to Arkham. Or maybe Arkham wasn't being actively used as an Asylum yet, remember Arkham was disused for many years. After Amadeus Arkham's death it fell into disrepair for a long time.
It makes plenty of sense. Batman fought Solomon Grundy a number of times in the early comics. Furthermore, he wasn't at all surprised to see Grundy in Arkham City.
Right. this is not confirmed just my guess and I think it pretty logical. We just saw that Blackgate had an explosion, deeming it unsafe and escapable. Now thing about the name Arkham Origins. That tells me its the origin of Arkham, possibly the opening of the Asylum or at least when it was first turned into a high security facility for these criminals. Make sense to anyone else?
well, the vita & the 3ds can handle cut scenes, so what gives with the comic book style slide show? I know its batman, but I don't find it appealing. the gameplay looks fun though.
That artwork looks pretty cool, like something out of a graphic novel. I didn't think much of this game before, but this trailer has me convinced.
Graphic novel-style cut-scenes, innovative 2D gameplay, Batman, what's note to love about this game?
I have to say, they look pretty good for 3DS graphics! :D
"So let's spend it together..." that makes me "like" xD
I wana see Poison Ivy. I love her evil laugh and her echoing voice.
I'm really liking the style of cutscenes they're going for.
SO... MUCH... EPICNESS...
correction, this isnt set as Batman's first encounter of Joker himself, since you dont even see anything origin wise of Joker been Red Hood, he's already established as Joker. but as for the incident involving years later of (Mark Hamill ol Joker) setting a fire to Blackgate is referenced in the MP developed by Splash Damage is what i was refering to. though as bewildering still, in Blackgate , game are events after Origins.

00:36 the way he turns his head

Joker's haircut though at 0:33 lol
You and me both. But you've got to admit, the characters so far, are still amazing!
i'm pretty sure you can find certain spoilers in this trailer.for instance i wonder if the black inmate with claws could be an assassin from origins.i see someone mentioned bronze tiger.also i don't see deathstroke here,meaning that maybe he escaped during origins or maybe he teamed up with batman somehow and that's why he wasn't arrested and locked up.kind of like catwoman in arkham city(which would also fit given that deathstroke will be playable).but these are just speculations

I got the impression that Grundy and batman a first encounter was in arkham city so the reveal of him in the trailer took me by surprise..
2) before a city I imagine that Grundy already made his way down to the place under iceberg lounge and 3) he's awesome
It also said Nintendo 3DS/eShop and PS Vita/Network. Did see anything about App Store...
And you would be correct sir! Grey DeLisle, the voice of Princess Azula also voiced Catwoman both in this game and in Arkham City
Great Game!! I've got both versions for the PS Vita and 3DS!!! 👍
The Fire at Blackgate is not this event, that happened right before Asylum. Joker is involved because Origins is the first time he meets Batman.

I squeeled with joy after I watched this trailer. I can't wait to get the game and see if 2.5D is a good fit for the Arkham series.
No arkham was around, but these events took place way before arkham, alot of the criminals from blackgate moved to arkham.
The side stories of Arkham City say that Ra's al Ghul experimented on Grundy with his Lazarus Pit before discarding him, which is how Penguin found him.
I think Grundy's appearance in this will be unrelated.
song: Groove Addicts - Bullet Time
This is set like, two months after Origins, so either they make friends in Origins or in between the two games.
Bronze Tiger is a master Martial Artist, able to even beat Batman or atleast match him. This is
Awesome! So, when are they making one for BludHaven?
Everyone is doing such amazing voice acting... and then you have the guy doing Commissioner Gordon. Seriously, for having a prison full of hostages, he seems pretty calm, don'tcha think?
So is Bronze Tiger one of the assassin's in the console version too, or is he only going to be in this game?
I never actual heard that. If so its still possible. Its not necessarily about the asylum nor do you even have to see it during the game I just think the game could end with the opening of the asylum in a cut scene or just a news flash or something.
its still hard to believe that those are not kevin conroy and mark hamil voices
Finally a trailer for Blackgate!
If I remember correctly, this is gonna be one of his first encounters with Joker, but I can be wrong. In any case, the game is played some years before the 2 other games, so things are kinda diferent.
no because Arkham Asylum (the facility) has been around for a lot longer than Batman, or at least i'm pretty sure it has.
Its not too bad for a Hand-Held. I can see where you're coming from, though. I kinda like the Comic Book looking Cut-Scenes. But, like you, I'm just gonna get the Main Arkham Origins. Maybe I'll just watch a Blackgate Walkthrough whenever I finish the story for the Main game.
as this is set after arkham origins, this trailer has told all of us batman puts all the criminals here
Bronze tiger? YES. All of my fucking yes.
my thoughta exactly. asides Penguin and the rest (not mentioning Joker). i thought these were events before what happen in Arkham City itself, but the game play and story says different. i figured Joker would be involved considering he said in AC how he got his crew out with a fire at Blackgate Prison. and Solomon Grundy ? indeed, Batman didnt know about him til Arkham City.
all this aside. i was told i shouldnt complain LOL.
I'm not sure, but what the difference between Blackgate Prison, Arkham Asylum ?
actually, he could be both. all the villains in here, well minus grundy, appear in Origins. Bronze tiger could be considered a assassin, so who knows?
Penguin found him in the museum this takes place 5 years before Arkham Asylum alot can happen in 5 Years
*5 years later* joker : "welcome to the madhouse batman" *arkham asylum begins*
Between Arkham Origins on home consoles (PS3, Xbox 360 e.t.c) and Battlefield 4, I'd say Arkham Origins.
Between Battlefield 4 and this Arkham Origins for 3DS and Vita, I'd say Battlefield 4 (even though I don't like those kind of games or even played a Battlefield).
I like the look of the game and I think I'll enjoy, but if I wasn't such a massive Batman fan, I doubt I would feel the same way.
If you liked the other Battlefields, then definitely go with that. :)
I want a collector's edition for this
makes a lot of sense, actually. only problem is that wb games montreal clearly stated the game wont be an origin for batman NOR an origin for arkham asylum. so...
I don't think that's quite right. I know that Arkham opened up very early with Amadaeus Arkham, but I don't think Joker and Co. were sent there initially.
At the very least, that seems to be the case in this game's universe.
Either way, thank you for being polite about it.
I hope they release it also on Xbox Arcade or even Steam too
I completely agree with you.
He's PROBABLY going to be one of the 3 assassins, in the 1st Arkham Origins.
When i dont think it is the origin of arkham i mean the structure for the island dont seem like it could happen and even if it was would they build a new blackgate?
it's because it's for handhelds. a lot more space would be taken up if it was 3d. it just saves time, money, and space.
Or maybe this game takes around the time they were reconstructing the asylum, you know, Sharp actually said in one of the chronicles you can find on Arkham Asylum that they reconstructed the Asylum and I suppose that took some time.
-Batman after Blackgate "Whoah, that was intense! I sure hope i don't have to do this again in the future"
Better question yet. Wtf, is grundy doing in blackgate?! Batman was supposed to have faced him in the iceburg lounge for the first and the last time. This screws up the Arkhamverse big time...
I am way excited to get this game. I will get the one for xbox and this one. The only reason why I wouldn't get this game for 3ds is if it got horrible reviews. And this is going to be a totally different game from the xbox and ps3 versions. So you can get 2 different batman games in the same time period!!!!
I'm seriously considering a vita minly cus of these games.
Vita will be the same in the next gen consple, right? (Sorry if my enlish sucked)
Graphics is not bad, there is Joker and the fight system is like in "big" Batman. If the game will be long (10-12h), i will get it at premiere.
just wait till the game comes out then judge on it i remember back in 2011 fans were skeptical about arkham city but it turned out to be a great sequel
This is making me consider a Vita. Especially with the recent price drop. But the price of memory cards is just outrageous!
What game video was this taken from? Im get both if possible
Considering how early into Batmans career, The cops havent seen criminals like the Joker or Black Mask as Super villian yet, so they are putting them with the normal criminals until they find a place to put them.
anyone know the tune that starts at 0:37?
Exactly (about Grundy). Way to break the timeline of events. Hopefully they've redeemed that properly, otherwise it's a shame.
My warden cut scene does not come up so im basically stuck in his room. How can this be fixed
How is the 3ds version gonna measure up to the psvita version
This is a time before Arkham
Well, it's a bit early in the Batman career for it to be an average day. An average day would be Arkham Asylum, because it's gotten to the point in time where things have been happening.
If it was batman's first encounter with grundy then he wouldn't of gone as far to rip out his heart because he wouldn't of known he was immortal
We'll find out in the game.
that was for house consoles not handhelds this the handheld version
Why, who knows what terrible atrocities a person will commit having witnessed such a thing.
Also, is it gonna be ALL of BlackGate, cause right now it looks like it will only take place in the Prison.
Cool. I wonder though why Joker's at Blackgate. Could he have purposefully broken in to join the fun? Thoughts?
there gonna be spending the night together
Can't Wait!
This game is set after the console version of Arkham Origins. It is its own separate game.
You're assuming that's the only place Grundy has every been, All Penguin said is that he found him there. We don't the events that caused Grundy to be trapped under the lounge.
the easter egg in arkham city was an after result of 1:30 so we know how grundy was found by penguin.
Maybe Batman didn't think he was insane enough in the early days of their relationship to warrant him going to Arkham.
Or maybe Arkham wasn't being actively used as an Asylum yet, remember Arkham was disused for many years. After Amadeus Arkham's death it fell into disrepair for a long time.
After the explosion Was a sentence that said "go up mr j"a reference to harley ???
maybe the reason he's asleep in the lounge is because he ended up there after blackgate or later
It makes plenty of sense. Batman fought Solomon Grundy a number of times in the early comics. Furthermore, he wasn't at all surprised to see Grundy in Arkham City.
something you don't really understand ... gordon is not afraid of batman he trusts him so it's obviously not at the same time as arkham origins
Right. this is not confirmed just my guess and I think it pretty logical. We just saw that Blackgate had an explosion, deeming it unsafe and escapable. Now thing about the name Arkham Origins. That tells me its the origin of Arkham, possibly the opening of the Asylum or at least when it was first turned into a high security facility for these criminals. Make sense to anyone else?
In the end, it was Grundy or Croc????
This can't be part of the chronology of the Arkham games... Solomon Grundy wasn't even known to Batman (in this series) until AC.
well, the vita & the 3ds can handle cut scenes, so what gives with the comic book style slide show? I know its batman, but I don't find it appealing. the gameplay looks fun though.
Who's the guy at in the middle at 0:35?
Should i get this or bf4?
Could Bronze Tiger be one of the assassins in the console game?
Arkham Asylum existed for a lot of time, just that they took some time on reconstructing it.
Now I have to get a 3ds for this
Well I know that I understand the storyline and cannot wait for both games to come out!! I really want
