DC Universe Online PC Review

The weeks that follow the launch of an MMO are never perfect, and in some cases, they're not indicative of what the game may look and play like a year or even a few months from now. DC Universe Online has had a decent launch: stable servers and a helpful community assist in this regard. However, its future will depend on its ability to retain this community and keep them interested in a game that starts strong, but grows old far too quickly.

The game starts off promising enough: create your own customized superhero and, with the help of a time-traveling Lex Luthor, combat Brainiac. There are only three basic body types to choose from, but how you dress these body types up is entirely at your discretion; either pick a template superhero (Flash, Superman, Catwoman, etc.) or customize your own character using a variety of features and iconic powers. Once you've chosen your alignment and mentor, the game starts you off on Brainiac's starship and it's up to you to punch and kick your way to freedom.
