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."
FFFFUUU IGN!
DC Online does look good...I hope it doesn't turn out bad like FF14 did... xD
I love how the results are basicaly you play as batman mentord by batman. We are a hero who uses martial arts and uses gadgets. Only difference is the hero can fly on his own, but then again Batman was kinda able to fly by grappling hook.
I played this at E3 this year, and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. I played it on the PS3, and the controls felt smooth and responsive enough. Combat was a lot of fun.
The only gripes I had I simply chalked up to being so early in development (graphical glitches, lag, etc).
I walked away thoroughly impressed with it. I just really dislike that it's a pay to play setup. I'd have preferred free to play, with some paid features if you wanted them.
I can't afford to keep up on MMO fees when I'll already be dropping $120 for two copies of the game (one for me, one for my wife), then I'd have to pay $15 each for our subscriptions, that's $30 a month, $360 a year. that's the cost of 6 extra video games a year. i'd much rather buy Killzone 3, Yakuza 4, Uncharted 3, inFAMOUS 2, Resistance 3, and Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One over the course of next year, than have to pay for DCU Online for 12 months for me and my wife.
I'll probably pick it up, because I really enjoyed it, but I hope they don't expect me to be playing every month, since too many games, across my 360 and PS3 will be hitting next year that are vying for my wallet.
