The game will probably end up being rubs, but that trailer is rather good.

Apparently it's going to cost $15 a month to play it.

I almost bought a PS3 just to get this game. However, after seeing the 15 a month fee, I laughed at my foolishness.

That's why this and any other pay to play MMORPG will never come to the X-Box 360 because Microsoft can't justify charging their subscribers 15 a month on top of the Live subscription, which is essentially there to offset such costs.

I am so torn over this game. I might just get it for my Boot Camped Mac.

[Leckomaniac]

Has any other Zoner gotten this?

I bought it for the PS3 and am having a blast. It is certainly not without flaws and I can't comment on if it is successful as an MMORPG (this having been my first) but I can say that joining forces with Zatanna to fend off Felix Faust was awesome. And freeing the Teen Titans from the demon Trigon was too cool for school.

Anyone out there playing this?

I'm still against having to pay a monthly subscription to play a game for which I've already paid money.

Same here, although a lifetime sub is only $100 suposedly...

But with MMORPGs we know that could be as short as a few months, or a few years... $160 for a game is kinda steep...

I have been playing the game now for a week or so.

I am having a lot of fun. Really, it has been cool. My best friend got it as well, so we have been teaming up and stuff.

But I would really like to see how SOE supports the game going forward. There are many issues in the game and I would like to see those addressed with patches. If they are just going to abandon the game, well so will I. But if I see some legitimate effort to right some of the wrongs and improve on what is there...I'll stick around for a while.

But at $15 a month, I won't be staying for long.

Got it. Love it.

Way I see it re: the subscription is I either pay £10 and enjoy this for a month, or spend £40 on some other game that I complete in a weekend and never play again. I'd rather pay the £10.

Are you a hero or villain? Team up with me! I am a hero on the Blood Will Run Server! Aleister Crowley is my name!

Oh I forgot about the different continent thing. Bummer.

Drat.

Have you been to the Hall of Doom yet? I liked The Watchtower plenty as a heroes base, but the villain one is just awesome. Highlight has to be fucking Zoom in the hangar bay barking that he doesn't do house-calls and he'll e-mail you if you're quick enough.

No I have only done the hero side of things. I am still getting the hang of everything. I am a bit miffed by the equipment portion of the game. Not sure how much of a difference that stuff makes in the scheme of things. And I can't seem to get most of my combinations to work.

Still, the game does a fantastic job of keeping me entertained for a quick two hours.

Yeah, I found it to be a tad fiddly.

Well, certain power groups. Super Speed and Fire seems to work fantastically. Acrobatics, guns and sorcery is dreadful. And some of the gun combos are astoundingly stupid given the fact that they take so long to do that any boss will kill you flat. On the plus side, we ganged up on Bizarro yesterday and the ten on one assault was poetry to watch.

I am. Got it for the PS3. On quite a few US servers. Where are you?

[Bloo]

I've been debating getting the PC version, actually been waiting to see what Zoners weigh in on this

Teh quality of the game is poor, I'll avoid.

Personally, I'm waiting for a game that everyone jump in upon but this isn't it.

You don't actually play a super hero and you don't actualy get anything done. There's no point.
I have a game design which will get created at some point and it will be the ultimate past time. ...The world is just not ready yet!

[ONeillSG1]

Folks, wanted to see if anyone has this game for PS3 and is in the US.

I have two toons that I frequent and would like to connect with you guys on the servers.

Cool?
