DC Universe Online

MMOs are a bit marmitey, aren't they...

Some see them as being the same as the online mode of normal games, and are shocked that they'd have to pay for something that's free in any other game. 

Some see them as being a lot more than just another online mode, and they're happy to pay for the evolution of the game.

I'm in the second camp - I've always liked MMOs, because I like being around other people as I play, and I like the complex teamwork that's required.  Normal games seem so shallow in comparison!

if the complex teamwork, works i would completly agree.

People are saying that this game is cheap but I can't see how it is. I bought Black Ops for €44 and have played about 20 hours since launch. I occasionally go on as I do not have as much time as I used to. If I was to do the same with this it would have cost me the initial price + 2 months sub already if it had been released in November.

The price is ridiculous for someone like me. At the moment I don't have the time to play online and paying €10 for a few hours of play a month is a rip off.

I was right about it going Free-to-Play

Lol, I bought this game for £29.99, used the 1 month included play time, then sold it second hand for £24.99 (and yes, they knew the free time had been used).

I now feel very smug hehe
