The new Batman title that is coming out for the 3DS and PS Vita, Batman Arkham Origins: Blackgate, will be running on the Bluepoint Engine. This engine was also used in the Vita port titled Playstation All-Stars: Battle Royale, a game that is being touted as one of the most technically impressive games for the PS Vita. Playstation All-Stars: Battle Royale for the PS Vita can run at native resolution, at 60 frames per second. So the fact that Batman Arkham Origins: Blackgate will run on the Bluepoint Engine is great news, indeed.
Bluepoint is also known for making Blast Factor, the HD versions of God of War I and II, the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, as well as Shadow of the Colosus and Ico. Batman Arkham Origins: Blackgate is coming out on October 25th, which is the same day Batman Arkham Origins will be released for the consoles (360/PS3/Wii U) and the PC. Batman Arkham Origins: Blackgate will feature 2.5D side-scrolling gameplay. This will also be the first time the Bluepoint Engine will run on a Nintendo platform.

I was five years old when I played my very first videogame: 'Super Mario All Stars + Super Mario World' (on the Super Nintendo.) Although, that was back in 1996, during the beginning of the Nintendo 64 timeline. Thus began my trend of always being one console behind. I owned a Nintendo 64 during the days of Xbox and PlayStation 2; and I owned a Game Boy Color during the prime of the Game Boy Advance. It was only until recently that I have started keeping up to date with the current console timeline. I bought an Xbox 360 during it's launch, and it is my gaming platform to this very day. Now hoping to someday own a PlayStation Vita, and a non-craptastic PC, I am also hoping to keep up with the gaming industry from this point forward. That is, until I become too old to care to keep up with technology. Or until I'm too old to remember my name, or something like that. You know, looking on the bright side of things.
