You were excited enough to make a thread about it :P
As a DC fanboy, I'm only "sort of" excited about this game. Champions Online and Cryptic already have me wrapped around their finger with everything they're promising. I will say I'm glad they chose to base the game's look on Jim Lee's style. But it's going to be difficult for SOE to lure in the few people out there who aren't looking forward to CO and want a good superhero MMO, in addition to..well, the fact that they're SOE.
Admittedly I'm jealous that DCUO will be on the PS3 in addition to the PC, since while I'm definitely looking forward to Champions, I'm not looking forward to having to deal with the Xbox Live community (assuming that PC users and Xbox users are sharing the same servers), which is slightly above WoW in terms of worst online community ever.

Decently respectable until they released Star Wars Galaxies. And some other stuff that's not so good.
I also have a blog!
No, respectable until they "fixed" SWG.
Champions seems to have it right in my mind. You make a Hero, and you make his Nemesis who shows up to fight you through out your adventures. While fighting the Joker or Mr. Freeze would be fun, I think its more entertaining when its someone you thought up your self.

I don't remember praising either the PC or PS3 communities in my post, but in this case, I find both of them the lesser evils over the Live community.
I've been pretty successful in avoiding most of the kinds of people you're referring to, I must be lucky. Which is surprising considering how much TF2 I clock in, but I'd say 8/10 games I play go without any "problems" no homophobic-smack talking little kids or beer-bong wielding fratboys.
Damn, lucky bastard. I just keep running into piss poor specimen of the human race.
Anyway, instead of hatin' on the human race, lets turn our eye to the superhuman race instead. Has there been any word on a release date yet?
The battles, while chaotic, look fluid, defenitely a step up from usual MMO combat from what I have seen.
Champions Online seems to have more innovations as far as other things are concerned, but I will defenitely keep an eye out for this one. For pre-whatever build it looks very good.
But now I'll probably just get the Trial and ttry it.
IGN: The first thing that jumps to my mind is that if I'm a villain and I get locked up in Arkham, what happens to my game?
John Blakely: Well, you don't get locked up in Arkham. You'll get knocked out. There will be some penalties for those kinds of things. You won't actually be sitting in a cell looking out, and just hoping that some day someone will come rescue you. Now, however, you can go into Arkham as a villain or as a hero and help free those other characters that may be locked in there -- maybe amass those characters and then go raid the Batcave if you're good enough.

I can't believe nobody has linked this one yet.
It's like saying DCUO tastes more like oranges than oranges
I guess I'm one of the few who went into it not expecting a puzzle game though.
You did understand my point, right? Do I have to come up with a dozen other examples of action games and then write a paper about the differences between those games and CoX?
The harder the rain, honey, the sweeter the sun.
The combat in DCUO is one of those things I'm just going to have to try out first. From the videos it doesn't look very exciting, except for shooting cars out of someone's hands with laser eyes.
At the same time CO's combat doesn't look very good from videos either. I appreciate they are both trying to do something more real time than a traditional MMO but I just need to try it to see how I like it.

I don't dig the shaders either. But I DO like the models, scenery and particle effects.
