Green Lantern Revealed For DCUO

Sony Online Entertainment Reveals The Green Lantern in DC Universe Online
In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil's might,
Beware my power... Green Lantern's light!
—Hal Jordan

Green Lantern Wallpaper

Harold “Hal” Jordan already had the reputation as the most courageous test pilot alive when he was selected by a dying alien to take his place in an international peacekeeping force, Green Lantern Corps, agents of The Guardians of the Universe. When he accepted the alien’s ring and battery of power, Hal Jordan became a Green Lantern. With a ring whose powers are limited only by one’s imagination and willpower, Green Lantern defends both our world and space sector 2814.

The Green Lantern belongs to the Green Lantern Corps and is a founding member of the Justice League of America. One of many Green Lanterns, Hal Jordan frequently teams up with other Corps and JLA members to shine his light and battle the darkness of evil and chaos. His enemies include Sinestro, a former Green Lantern who is armed with a yellow power ring, and the alien parasite Parallax.

Not only Green Lantern, but also The Flash! But I'm concerned. It says that PS3 will have it but 360 isn't mentioned.
Phinehas - 10/15/2009, 10:24 AM
Unfortunately DCUO is only for PC and PS3... With it being a Sony product, there's no way they'll share with Microsoft :o(
Nathan Best - 10/15/2009, 10:28 AM
Ah lame, i want this on 360!
Spilox - 10/15/2009, 10:31 AM
Yay. Way to go WB. You just left out an entire market.
Phinehas - 10/15/2009, 10:37 AM
Anyone here see GL:First Flight??? Extreme awesomeness!!!
MrDCGuy23 - 10/15/2009, 10:54 AM
that's cool.
gambitfreak - 10/15/2009, 10:58 AM
That's so gay, I've got xbox360.
ClintEastwood - 10/15/2009, 10:59 AM
This is a game then COOOOOOOLLLLLL
MrAnonymous - 10/15/2009, 11:00 AM
Unfortunately this was revealed 2 months ago on Myspace, lol.

CMB isn't keeping up too well with this game.
Hanzogamer - 10/15/2009, 11:30 AM
GUYS @ Just buy a PS3 too!!!
LEEE777 - 10/15/2009, 11:46 AM
@ MrDCGuy23: I'm sure most of us have, and yes it was. =)
BmanHall - 10/15/2009, 11:47 AM
Yeah, it's not a surprise, the Green Lantern wallpaper has been up for months, but Sony Online Entertainment just issued a press release today with the info above (which is different from what they released on their MySpace page).
Nathan Best - 10/15/2009, 11:58 AM
BTW, the most recent character announced was The Green Arrow. They haven't really been releasing tons of stuff for the game, but that's probably because they're still in the Alpha stage (based on the conversations I had with them at the San Diego Comic Con).
Nathan Best - 10/15/2009, 12:01 PM
That is too bad, I only use Microsoft & linex
Spock - 10/15/2009, 12:01 PM
[frick] ps3
superdog - 10/15/2009, 12:03 PM
Yet another reason to own a PS3!!! Why anyone would buy a 360 when the PS3 is so much better I dont know!

This game looks awesome though but after playing Uncharted 2, Im not sure that any game will ever top that!!!
joshw24 - 10/15/2009, 12:18 PM

BmanHall - 10/15/2009, 12:50 PM
@ superdog: I did. It wasn't that great. It just laid there.
BmanHall - 10/15/2009, 12:51 PM
the only reason i got a ps3 is for this game apart from that it sits under my tv gathering dust. marvel were gonna release a marvel version of this but microsoft cancelled it. xbox still rocks more though.
Deadpaul - 10/15/2009, 12:55 PM
@BmanHall - I hate it when they don't reciprocate!

I like the PS3, but I have to admit that other than watching Blu-ray, it just sits there... I have a couple of great games for it (Resistance 2, Killzone 2, etc), but just haven't been able to get into them... All of my friends have Xbox and we're into the multiplayer aspects.

I'm going to make it a point to beat all the games I have on it, as well as Uncharted 2, over the next month... Then I can compare apples to apples :o)
Nathan Best - 10/15/2009, 1:14 PM
Nathan: Im suprised by that - theres been so many times that Ive considered getting a 360 but I just cans see any games on the system that makes it essential when compared to the PS3! Having to pay for going online and no blu ray has always put me off as well!
joshw24 - 10/15/2009, 1:38 PM
@ Nathan Best
X-box has a more games I agree with you on that. Killzone is the truth, and if you dont have it pick it up for the Vs, Naruto Ultimate ninja storm. Even if you not a fan, the game play and graphics are CARZY!

Also Ps3 has a nice line up coming out with FF Versus and White knight, I hear the have a Mega man in the works as well as MAG. To bad X-box keeps getting games like Tekken but if i was a publisher I would do the same, seeing as there are more x-box owners. But i wouldn't count Sony out, I know that have some good game on the list. I cant wait for FF versus. And I hope the rumors are true about a FF7 extension on events after Advent Children with Cloud and the crew.
CrashTest - 10/15/2009, 1:38 PM
Damn i need a PS3 Asap. does any one know if the ps3 has achievements like the 360?
Geekautomaton - 10/15/2009, 2:06 PM
They have trophies, but it's sorta the same thing. I don't think all PS3 games have them though.
Tobuttica - 10/15/2009, 2:59 PM
Hey everyone, check out my new avatar, Black Lantern Jason Voorhees! Woo hoo! He's even wearing a ring, but you can't see it that small.
Tobuttica - 10/15/2009, 3:00 PM
Geekautomaton Yeah, they're called trophies! Not all games have them but every game released from the beginning of this year do - many older games have also had patches released so they have trophies (Star Wars, GTA IV, Tomb Raider) You should definitely get a PS3 - its a much better system IMO!
joshw24 - 10/15/2009, 3:08 PM
i don't know guys. i think the only leg up that ps3 has on 360 is the fact that ps3 doesn't get the red ring of death. i could completely understand having a ps3 when everyone i've ever talked to or read about has had the red ring at least once. i've had a 360 since the day it came out and i've gotten the ring 4 times. other than that the 360 is superior in my opinion.

xbox live totally kills playstation network in every way, so i don't mind paying the cheap ass price for it. i like the controller better. the interface isn't just thrown at you in a bunch of confusing lists that you have to search through every time you want to change a setting. no ps3 games are 1080p, while most 360 games are. i just love my 360.

and this is coming from someone who has both. i used to have wii, but i sold that piece of junk after only having it a year. i hate that thing.
CorndogBurglar - 10/15/2009, 4:09 PM
and oh yeah, i hate that this is an MMO and you can't play as any of the DC characters. thats so lame. i'll play Champions online instead. at least you aren't teased with characters you love, but can't use.
CorndogBurglar - 10/15/2009, 4:11 PM
When does this game come out?
Kratos6 - 10/15/2009, 4:24 PM
TOBUTTICA @ Cool Avatar!!

BMAN @ Lmao dude!
LEEE777 - 10/15/2009, 4:25 PM
Oh no ! its not gonna be out for the 360?!? Phew... good thing i gotta PS3 too! :P
shibazz - 10/15/2009, 6:21 PM
The way to settle any dispute between PS3 and Xbox 360 is to get both. This way you can get all the kick ass exclusive PS games and all the exclusive 360 games. Then whichever you like best, by the multi-console games. That's what I plan to do. There is too much cool crap for me to remain bias toward either system.
Tobuttica - 10/15/2009, 6:21 PM
[frick] ps3 twice
superdog - 10/15/2009, 7:20 PM
I just finished Arkham Asylum. It was pretty cool! I bought it for my birthday.
Phinehas - 10/15/2009, 8:16 PM
CorndogBurglar: How is the 360's online servce better than PS3!?! On PS3 you have HOME, VidZone (with thousands of free music videos), you can download TV shows and movies, an internet browser, you can download updates for games and the PS3 as well as access online features of blu-ray all for FREE! Plus, in a few months there's going to be thousands of online digital comic books! How does 360 beat that!?!!
joshw24 - 10/15/2009, 8:18 PM
I'm planning on getting a PS3 simply because the 360 doesn't have any exclusive games that I like.
MovieTheaterLad - 10/15/2009, 9:56 PM
I hear that 360 is better in that it can relay more information than PS3. I don't know, just reaching.
Phinehas - 10/15/2009, 11:09 PM
i prefer my PS3 because it actually works.
dont get me wrong when the xbox is working i quite like it,so using both suits me just fine.
for me the biggest difference is the users,xbox users annoy the sh!t out of me with their elitist attitude,then if you go online you have to deal with said elitist assholes being whiney little pr!cks.
so im glad this is PS3 exclusive :P
shiftysharp - 10/16/2009, 4:53 AM
BmanHall: LOVE the Batman/Green Lantern poster! "Overpowered"? "OP"? Sounds like the Necromancers in Age of Conan before the last big patch, heh...

luffy: THANK YOU for leaving off the Goku trailer. It is appreciated.

However, I was a little disappointed that this article was for a game; I thought we were seeing the first glimmers of the light on the horizon, the Green Lantern movie...

I don't do the game consoles, just stick to my old PC games.
bropous - 10/16/2009, 6:16 AM
I dont know about you Corndogburger, but the dreaded red light is a significant enough factor to not buy an XBOX!! I dont care how good the online play is............ PS3 all the way!!!
Warpath27 - 10/16/2009, 7:52 AM
Awesome Pic!
Great,Now i Have get a PS3 :)

NightAvenger4 - 10/16/2009, 8:07 AM
@Kratos6 - They haven't announced a release date yet for DCUO... When I spoke with them at Comic Con, they said they were still in Alpha and were *hoping* to release it late 2010 or 2011 :o(
Nathan Best - 10/16/2009, 9:24 AM
On the PS3 vs Xbox debate, I could go either way really... I like the Xbox interface WAY better, but I don't like the fact that Microsoft nickels and dimes you, but you do typically get access to demos and DLC earlier, so it's a trade off...

PS3 has done a LOT of things right, including built in wireless, web browser, and blu-ray, but I don't like the controller (it feels TINY in my hands... no "that's what she said" comments!) and I can't get used to the interface...
Nathan Best - 10/16/2009, 9:27 AM
i have this same debate with my friends all the time. xbox live is far better then psn. home is just a sims rip off and if i wanted that i'd just buy the game. the updates for a ps3 take forever to download and install even with a 20mb download speed. and the fact that facebook, twitter and sky tv (british cable) is coming top xbox live just blows the ps3 out of the water. the games on xbox are far better in the exclusive range, left 4 dead, halo, gears of war. so the ps3 has kilzone 2 (which sony lied profusly about before the launch) and the uncharted but all of these are no way in comparison to the xbox. ( release date for dcuo is around march 2010) and you don't need to pay to have xbox live just xbox live gold but silver is free. There's nothing that the ps3 has that the xbox can't have or have a better version of.
Deadpaul - 10/16/2009, 12:17 PM
oh and the trophys suck there a cheap imitiation of the xbox give me the gamerscore any day.
