Hot off the virtual presses, SOE just sent out this pretty slick new trailer for DC Universe Online in celebration of their presense at this years Gamescom.  While most of the press up until now has been how  you can play iconic characters from the DC err...universe, this particular video focuses instead on who you can rise to become as a custom character within this world.

There's a lot to love with DCUO, particularly the powersets.  Watch for the frame of a guy launching his party member off a building while they're encased in a protective bubble.  It's these sorts of things you really haven't been able to do in other games.  I for one am more of a Marvel girl, but after spending some time playing DCUO and seeing trailers like this, I just might have to reevaluate my choice of side.  Can one be a Marvel comic person but a DC gaming person?  Something tells me, I'm about to find out.
