MMGN.com: DC Universe Online Review

Every year we hear the same old story; an eager developer touts their new game as the definitive MMO, the fanboys proclaim it as the first real WoW killer and then a few months later the subscription base dies and the MMO is forgotten by all. DC Universe Online is here, not only for the PC but also as the first subscription-based game on the PS3 platform. Is it a WoW killer? No, but god damn it is a whole lot of fun.

lol mmgn, so sad.

[SasanovaS1987]

so so so so sad...never heard of the site but gonna put it on the "dont visit this garbage noob gamers site ever again" list. not only have you not played the game nearly enough to review it...AND ITS A FREAKING MMO...but to sacrifice your reputation for the sake of being first to review it...well thats just sad

[Kerrby]

MMGN is an awful website, power hungry admins who ban everyone. No wonder the forums are practically dead.

This is a review based on 30 hours of gameplay. As it states within the review we will be following this article up every few weeks with further thoughts as the game is fleshed out, the community grows or falls and go from there.

This game has a lot of potential players sitting on the fence. We hope this article gives them a feel for how the game plays. As for your snide comments, thanks for the vote of confidence.

@hellerphant

If that's the case you shouldn't have attached a score to the review until it is, as you said, fleshed out. You are well aware of the fact that all MMOs have teething pains which make it a little unfair to fully review day one or even week one.

[Bobby Kotex]

LoL if he gave it a 9 you fanboys wouldn't be talking trash.

It's funny how Kerrby, the adult equivalent of a toddler with bowel problems, flames every MMGN article on here and calls MMGN shit, even though he was so angry and displeased when he was banned from the forums for being a complete ass. You can't call a website shit after you cry like a little girl from getting banned from it. Sour grapes, much? So which is it; either you love MMGN, or you hate it? You must love it. Shall I post all the comments you made to admin regarding your banning, or perhaps I can show the N4G community how you begged to be let in? It's all in the logs man. Your little PS3 fanboy mates from your little clan just look like a bunch of kids that have cry when their mum bans them from watching TV after 6pm.

[Kon]

Right score for me.

[Bolts]

This game isn't perfect, there are a few quirks like chat issues, limited powers and the PC version feels consolized which can piss off some PC gamers...but the base gameplay and groundwork behind it totally unique in a sea of WoW/EQ clones.

Sony did a really good job with this MMO, they just need to patch and flesh it out some more.

[rdgneoz3]

Yep, enjoying the game. They just need to fix the bugs that are popping up quickly.

[White-Sharingan]

lol no, it's at least an 8 or more, but to each their own.

[KillahCam]

a 7.5 is horrible this is a great game with so much to do I actually stopped playing the so called game of the year (CoD Black Ops) and I actually like it better!

[hellerphant]

If people think Black Ops is game of the year they shouldn't call themselves gamers. BLOPS is nothing but regurgitated bullcrap. Not to mention that the ending of the SP campaign is beyond insulting to our intelligence. it was fun for about fifteen minutes, but I'd call it an overhyped piece of shit to be honest.

[Sidewinder-]

I say, God-Damn! What a rush!!

I like the look of DC universe. I was very close to buying it the other day, but pennys must be saved when pennys must be saved.

Tbh i think i've entered a horrible syndrome where i've bought too much of recent date.

[GiantJedi]

I played this game, besides the 15gb it takes up and the monthly fees it's actually a really good game. I'd probably give it a 8 or 9.

[bluegreenman]

I think that once people stop trying to compare every MMO to WoW, we will have more longevity with these games. Its a shame. Just because the game doesn't follow the same design decisions of WoW, people quit and go back to WoW, where they have all their money and time invested. I think Guild Wars 2 is going to set a new bar in MMOs. Free to play, and the ideas those guys are implementing are genius.

[CatGlue]

I feel the game is a little flimsy, the punching and bashing don't have the right feedback.

MMGN is awesome :P

[ICC_06]

I still don't know when 7.5 became a bad score...
