So I was watching Man of Steel last night and I got to thinking that they haven't made an even halfway decent Superman game. . .ever. Now the main reason for this is almost blatantly obvious "He's too ****ing powerful." But I had a thought, what if There was a game where a team up between Superman and Batman? Now obviously I'm no game designer, but with the success of games like Arkham City and Injustice, the idea that a DC game would sell is pretty solid.
As far as story goes, there would need to be a reason for them to team up, like a threat Superman couldn't defeat by himself, or maybe his powers were zapped somehow and he needs Batman's help while he recovers. There could even be two types of mission: ones where you play as Batman and ones where you play as Superman. The Batman ones would be more puzzle/investigation types, and Superman's could be more along the lines of puzzles that require strength or chasing. Yes the Superman missions sound a little boring for now but obviously there's be combat and again, I'm not a game designer.
I imagine if Lex Luthor or Braniac were to come up with some super project Supes would need Batman. Or he'll even Darkseid would be great.
I would just like to see a proper Superman game that people would actually enjoy. What do you guys think? Is it possible? Or just stupid? What would you want to see from such a game?
