PALGN: MMO's are nothing new. MMO's centered around creating your own superheroes aren't exactly fresh, either. We've been playing games like City of Heroes and Champions Online for the past five years, so what makes DC Universe Online any different? Well, it's in the name isn't it? This is the first properly licensed superhero online game to grace both computers and consoles. Not only can you quest in dungeons with fellow user-created heroes, but you'll also be fighting alongside the likes of Superman, The Flash, Lex Luthor and the Joker. For fans of the DC Universe, as well as those with only a casual knowledge of it (which thanks to the Batman and Superman movies encompasses most of the global population), this may be enough to sell you on the game. But will you have any fun playing it?

* PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X launch this holiday season
WTMG's Thomas Medina: "As far as I’m concerned, console MMOs have always been in a weird place. PC is where the main game is most popular. MMOs were born there, work best there, and have the vast majority of titles. Mobile is then next in line, with touchscreens and portability that adds something new while functioning well. Console gaming, on the other hand, is not portable (for the most part). Plus, it uses a controller, which is not the best instrument when your control scheme requires a thousand buttons and a cursor. That being said, there is an audience, and where there’s money to be made, publishers find a way. So here we are with some of the biggest console MMO games and how I feel they handled 2021. "
From Xfire: "A lot of video games are designed to make players feel like a superhero. However, very few actually feature superheroes or have players take on the role of a superhero. What makes this even worse is that there are even fewer superhero video games that can be considered good."
This game is an 8 in my book
It is pretty good but I agree with him that once you reach level 30 and do a couple of the new missions, it loses steam. I haven't touched it at all since Mass Effect 2 came out and I was all about this game since I bought it.
I'm an xp junkie.
