New DC Universe Online Trailer Takes Flight
News

published Make your own hero.
Thanks to Gamescom, we have a bunch of great gaming news and fresh, new game trailers. One of the games that we've been keeping a close eye on is DC Universe Online, which is cross platform for the PC and PlayStation 3.
Unlike the previous trailer from E3, this one is composed of in-engine game footage and not stacked with CGI. It certainly looks very much like an MMO, but it's one that we're waiting for.

"Cross Platform" refers to xbox, pc, sometimes mac, and ps3/portable ones. Linux isnt counted as a platform, mac and iphone same thing, its not uncommon for them not to get games, and android is a phone os, get real lol

burnley14 How is it that PC has rights to the game but 360 does not? Is Microsoft dividing itself now?Reply -
tsnorquist Looks very similar to City of Heroes & City of Villains IMO w/ the exception of fighting with or against known characters.Reply -

Because the 360 and a PC are both platforms, Microsoft Windows is not a platform, but an OS on a platform.
Also, this game is being developed and published by Sony, if that isn't reason enough as to why its not on the 360 then there is no help for you. -
schmich Off-topic, how come some embedded videos have the full-screen options whilst others don't?Reply
