Origins had a pretty neat story, good graphics, and some nice new castings for the voices of these iconic characters. It is probably the best non-comic depiction of Bane even though it frustrates me that he never once actually breaks Batman's back in game, but J P Blanc did a good, menacing, not too heavily accented voice that fit the character pretty well. Troy Baker also did a really good job as the Joker and does sound pretty close to Mark Hamill's Joker from some of the earlier episodes of the animated series, not as good as Hamill but if Hamill ever decides he's done for good with voicing work then I'd say Baker should become the new go to Joker.
