I have to admit, I had a lot of fun. Playing in a group is fun, but so is playing solo. That, in and of itself, makes this game rather unique. It does become progressively harder to solo, but I would have gotten bored if it hadn’t. The controls were fun as well, in that attacks were combos like triangle+square+triangle which lent an arcade feel, but there was lots of collecting and a progressive mission/storyline that was undeniably RPG.

If you want to play solo, buy the game and play away. If you want to group, get yourself a headset (the trick I learned is to have your bluetooth on before you log into the game). I also purchased a wireless keypad, but the game can sometimes be so quick, it shouldn’t be your first choice for battles. It is almost required to have some kind of keyboard though, if you want to interact outside of the group/solo play.

Do I think this is the greatest game ever? No. But is it a great game? I feel it is.

I am a huge DC fan. I also really enjoy action RPGs as well as MMOs, but, very importantly, I also like to occasionally solo and not feel dependent on grouping. Finally, I like trying games that bring something new. While some may argue that each component of what DCUO brings isn’t new, I would say back that its unique in the way its delivered.

Specifically, when I played the Beta I took one character to 20. I also sat with my son while he played to level 7. His mother used my account to play 2 characters: one good, one evil.

Just my two cents. Hope this helps a few.

After reading a review from M. Ireland above, I can’t wait to get a copy but when I made a call to my brother (he’s the one that buys the game for me since it is cheaper near his place) just now, he is still in HK.

You can get a copy of DC Universe Online here and while you are at it, get the DC Universe Online strategy guide as well.

It’s a funny song, but I am really not sure why make a fuss of which console is better. All three, including Wii, has its own pros and cons and all three is there to provide entertainment for the whole family. Even some people say their consoles have better games, do they have time to play all or … do they have the money to buy all the games.

But … if you ask me, get a PlayStation
