System: Xbox 360, Xbox, PS2
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Developer: EA Tiburon

Electronic Arts has released the newest screens from SUPERMAN RETURNS: THE VIDEOGAME. The screens show the huge amount of improvement made to the graphics engine. The title looks to place The Man of Steel into the Sandbox genre of games made popular by titles such as GRAND THEFT AUTO. Whether or not they’re successful at making it a memorable gaming experience, we’re not sure but we’ll know soon enough.

We’ll be heading down to the developer, EA Tiburon, in Orlando in a couple weeks time to find out for ourselves how things are shaping up with this title. This is where you come in. If there’s anything you wanna know about the game, let us know below in the comments or in our forums and we’ll find out for you firsthand. Wanna know if a certain power is in the game? How about a certain villain? No question is too small, so ask away.

Until then, look at some of the game features below and make sure to tell us what you want to know about SUPERMAN RETURNS: THE VIDEOGAME.

Features

The Authentic Superman Experience
True to the fiction in every respect, this is the game based on the Superman universe that fans have been anticipating for decades.

Metropolis Comes to Life
From excited citizens moving around the city to the traffic on the streets, every detail of this vibrant city has a mind of its own. These 80 square miles are brought to life for the first time in a videogame.

Huge Open World
Go anywhere and do anything in Metropolis as Superman. Non-linear gameplay allows you to explore and play the game exactly how you want to at your own pace. Where and how you fly – to the top of skyscrapers, dodging elevated trains – is completely up to you, since gameplay is designed as a true open world experience.

Missions and Mini-games
With notorious villains like Metallo and Parasite, and colossal challenges only Superman can overcome, you must navigate the Man of Steel™ to monitor and protect Metropolis from destruction.

Varied Gameplay
Three distinct types of gameplay — Flying, Rescue, and Combat — will keep the action constant and the challenges relentless. Play both film-inspired missions as well as original content created exclusively for the videogame.

Next-Gen Technology
Graphics, sound, and gameplay have been taken to the next level to create a Metropolis like you’ve never seen it, with three dimensional sound, a complete orchestra soundtrack, and Oscar-wining sound designer.

Will there be any unlockables, like extra skins and costumes, like being able to play a comicbook model of Superman instead of from the movie?

Make sure they use Mr. Mxypl-whatever. He’s a magical midget in a purple bowler hat, and he can bend realitywith a snap of his fingers. Imagine the challeges! He could flip Metroplois upside down and Supes would have to race to catch everyone falling (done in the comics).
They should also incorporate the fortress of solitude somehow, maybe with the intro and options menus. Each time you change menus, show Supes changing the crystals in that glass interface of his, possibly with Jor-el’s face in the background. Then, when you start the game show Supes dash off to Metropolis.
Little things like that make good games, great games.
