I was lucky enough to be one of the few invited to the DC Universe Online studio for an opportunity to see the game and talk to the people that made it. Today’s article focuses on the character creation and customization features of DC Universe Online as they were presented to us by Chris Cao and Jens Andersen. The character creation walkthrough revealed character classes, abilities, weapons, and more. I apologize if the camera shakes at times, but I recorded the entire event on my iPhone, and at the time of this recording, had already been doing so for over an hour. My hands and arms were, understandably, somewhat tired. Read the full story

Last Monday, November 1, I found myself in a place I had not been for close to five years; an airport. I was on my way to Texas (there’s a bad country song in there, somewhere), where I was invited by Sony Online Entertainment to attend a semi-exclusive press event and game preview for their upcoming game, DC Universe Online. I had a chance to interview Sony Online Entertainment’s Vice President of Development, John Blakely. I got a good play session on the most current (at the time) versions of the game for both PS3 and PC. I sat through demonstrations of character creation, an in-game tour of Metropolis and Gotham, and a lesson in the game’s comic-book physics. Make sure to check back every day this week for an article detailing each of the amazing things I saw and did while down in Texas last week!

Scorpion does what Scorpion does best in this new trailer for Mortal Kombat. He throws spears, tells people to get to various places (with most of those places being “here”) and then uppercuts them. And all without the benefit of pupils. Oh Scorpion, you so crazy! Read the full story

You know, I have to wonder why anyone would live in Gotham City. I mean, its filled with guys like Scarecrow who dress up in terrifying costumes and spray you with gas and in general do horrible things to you. Well, DC Universe Online is gonna let you do something to fix that little problem. Fix it by punching it right in its burlap sack face. Read the full story

Vanquish is not the game you play for a deep, thought-provoking, socially-relevant story. Vanquish is the game you play for knock-your-socks-off, blow-your-mind, tear-a-hole-in-the-space-time-continuum entertainment that’s so good it will make you want to slap your mama. Don’t get me wrong, a great story is always welcome; but to me, it is always secondary to gameplay. Where was the story in Metal Slug? How about Contra? Final Fantasy? Super Mario Bros? Sonic the Hedgehog? These games became icons not because of their nuanced storytelling, but because they were incredibly fun to play. That is Vanquish. Read the full story
