Do we have a contender for sub header of the year?

Yes, yes we do.

I'm not sure what I want more, this or Champions Online. I love Champions Online, but the fact I can play this on PS3, and it's got heros I recognise (which I found made LTRO more enjoyable for me) tempt me this way.

@DFawkes - Hear hear, i have no idea either. All i know is that i want to make comedic superheroes like my old Dr Bovril, Roboliz (Cybernetic QE2), Paul Daniels ('That's Magic!') and for the combat to be deep and involing and the missions be less formulaic than CoH....

I need a head to head article on them!

Don't promote shit bands on this site plz.

Game looks interesting tho, but will it descend purely button mashing? Do the characters move and control well?

I'm actually more interested in Champions Online because the universe is separate from the DC comics, I want a whole new universe to play through instead.

The SWG NGE put me off this completely. Meeting half the cast of the movies in the space of half an hour was, well, bloody awful. If that's anything to go by, DCUO will be just as bad.

"SOE demoed the game with PC and PS3 versions both running on a shared server, but admits the team will probably start off with separate communities when they go live, with the aim of eventual integration"

Thats Dev speak for "it isn't going to happen but we won't say that because it may put people off"

"SOE Austin's action MMO has the potential to be truly heroic"

Another MMO preview, another game that has "potential".

It will be interesting to see who survives and who thrives out of City of Heroes, Champions Online and this.

I just don't get how this would work? A city with a load of super heros running around? Its SWG and the Jedi filled servers all over again.....

From Champions Online, I'm assuming it'll be similar, with a surprising number of people sticking to the ground, since it makes combat a lot easier and, in that games case, you're less susceptible to damage. Stops everyone in engaging in air combat all the time.

Either that or it really will be a world of Superman clones. We'll see, hopefully any inevitable beta would address that issue.

Sounds like fun, and a proper MMO on a console too. Must keep an eye on this (and this comes from a MMO hater)

I'm probably gonna end up playing both this and champions since they have a huge gap between them. However i think champions has the potential to have the better story since cryptic actually own it they can kill or create whoever they want.

I really want to know how the flying in this game works! Is it like 'Superman Returns' which the flying was about the only thing that game got right! How high can you go? how fast can you fly?, and can the game engine handle it and whats the draw distance?
