    DCUO , while not yet perfect, has every chance to become so - and what’s already there is very, very good. If you’re a comic book fan and are looking for an MMO, look no further. Click here to read a review of the PC version . Read more

    You can spend some in-game cash and "respec" your character--that is, reset your powers and skills and allocate your points elsewhere. But you stop earning experience (and thus, fancy new abilities) once you reach level 30, and unfortunately, you encounter that ceiling very quickly.

    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. Read more

    DC Universe Online is a bold experiment in not only bringing MMOs onto consoles, but also giving it a shot of adrenaline and in this case, it works. If you have the time to spare, can ignore a user interface on the level of an Excel spreadsheet, and want to know how it feels to fight alongside Superman, I recommend DC Universe Online. Read more

    I played the Beta preview of this game and have since ordered the games fullretail version, I found the beta to be enjoyable and managed to rack up over 40 hours of beta gameplay over the Christmas holidays, The beta maxed out at level 20, but I had already defeated some of the most popular villians and even some unknowns, Gorilla Grogg anyone????
