When it comes to console MMOs, there are virtually no other companies that can challenge Sony Online Entertainment. The company has dedicated itself to carving out its own niche in the console-based MMO market and at CES this year. The upcoming DC Universe Online was the star attraction at the SOE private suite meeting. Ars Technica had a chance to sit down with a functional, but nonetheless, early pre-alpha version of the game and spoke with senior producer Wes Yanagi.

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."
Action mmo, this seems to be quite interesting. I hope it turns out good since I would love to play the game...
