Kombo writes: "DC Universe Online has become something of a wishing well for DC and MMO fans alike. The project itself feels so large and it carries with it so much burden and responsibility. This is the classic DC Universe Sony's messing with; it's a slew of characters and personalities that fans have spent decades of their lives getting to know. And now, with DCU being an MMO, players and fans are going to be working alongside the likes of Supes and Bats or the Joker and Lex Luthor. And Sony's approached that entitled sense of "DC-ness" that so many of the fans clutch to with such a great attitude. They've got Jim Lee, Geoff Johns, the support of Wildstorm, DC and a bunch of writers and artists from the company lending their talents to the ambitious title.
Needless to say, this project brings a lot of potential to the table whenever it's mentioned in conversation. DCU Online will let players make their own super heroes to live and fight in the world of DC. No, you will not be playing The Flash or Nightwing, you are who you make. And just like any other MMORPG, you'll level up, collect drops and participate in PvP..."

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."
