I'll try this then thanks. Would you recommend PS3 or 360, the Trilogy edition or individual GOTY editions ?
The Trilogy edition only has Origins on disc I believe, the first two games are download codes.
Origins wasn't made by Rocksteady (the devlopers of the actual trilogy - Asylum, City, Knight).
Origins apparently does have ties to the final game via little nods, and some consider the story to be the best in the series, but it's also a point that can introduce fatigue as it's very familiar. I think you should maybe leave that until last and play it if you're wanting more.
I'd go for individual GOTY editions as they come with extra content, not sure which console is the superior version though.
