I love the Batman and Superman characters that they show... The fact that you can team up with them is pretty cool (even if you can't BE them).

yea i dont think i will be getting this.. but i must admit the character designs they show look pretty good (especially the Batman/Superman/joker inspired ones)..

Id love to just get a hold of the Create a Hero system and mess around with a few ideas

I was thinking of getting this but I don't care for the high monthly cost. If it were $60/year, then I might start thinking about it. But at nearly $200/year, forget about it.

@Jaxim Where did you get the pricing figures from? Assuming that it's $15/month, which is typical for MMOs anymore, that would be about right ($180/year), but I haven't seen any official word on the monthly fees...

Wow that looks awesome. Too bad I don't have PS3, and I am a WoW player already :-(

Come on...let's go Xbox

I've always preferred Marvel over DC but this game is really making me like and appreciate the DC universe. It's too bad that it doesn't come out next month. I was really looking forward to it. Having been a WoW player for the last 5 years I was looking forward to something different. This is the first game I've ever seen that looked like it could replace WoW for me. For those that haven't played MMOs, $15-20 a month is not bad at all if the game is deep and has enough content. Some of my friends, who have been playing MMOs for years, have some some reservations about DCUO because of Sony and its failure with Everquest II. I feel they've got to take a back seat and watch Blizzard for the last 6 years and maybe they might do things right and even better. They sure have seen and perfect model of how to run an MMO.


I was sold from the first trailers. And like I said, I was never into DC as much as Marvel. The story line is great and the customization of the characters is something that I think will give it a leg up on WoW. Let's hope that it is out very, very early in 2011.

I wish people would stfu about the price. All MMOs that are worth a damn are $15 a month, WOW is $15 a month too. You are paying for a game the never ends and keeps getting more interesting as you go along how many people have spent $60 on a game only to beat it in one day. People spend $15 to see a movie for 2hrs sometimes less worth of entertainment. This $15 of entertainment lasts all month.

@airbeyonder18 I looked through the video game news prior to posting and didn't see this... Sony just released the video today, it's not even on the DCUO site yet...

I get beat enough on news items that I always check before I post :o)

Maybe I must missed yours somehow? Is it still up?
