Comic-Con is geek/nerd heaven. Each year, during this event, we get advances in movies, comic books, TV shows, and video games. Regarding the latter, here’s a cinematic trailer revealed at Comic-Con for DC Universe Online – a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) set in the DC Universe. The game is set an unknown length of time before a massive battle between the world’s metahumans. Led by Lex Luthor, an army of villains wage war against the heroes, killing Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, and Cyborg, while Green Arrow and Black Canary were killed offscreen. However all of Luthor’s army also falls in battle. Brainiac takes advantage of the chaos to take control of Earth, decimating its population. Lex Luthor, the only survivor, time-travels to the present to warn the heroes of the impending threat.
You got to love cinematic trailers. This trailer is just simply awesome. I just wanted to share this video game trailer with you guys, since we’ve been surrounded by DC and Marvel news from Comic-Con. I’m definitely getting this game for PS3.
What about you guys? Would you like a longer feature film from DC in this style?
