Fist of teh Internets.
Story
To keep the game somewhat believable in terms of controlling a man who can move planets if he needs to, Superman's powers would scaled back to mirror the Bruce Timm Superman. Still a lot stronger than most of foes…but not quite as all-powerful as the comic counterpart.
The story would flow along with Bruce Timm's show. Starting out with the main villain being Lex Luthor and the majority of your opponents being superpowered criminals he's backing…leading up to a Lex in his green mech suit battle…all building up to an invasion from Darkseid and Apokolips.
Gameplay
• Free Roam
**Please note that all controller functions are based on the Playstation controller set-up**
You can't have a Superman game nowadays without having the freedom to fly wherever.
Following the flying engine from the "Superman Returns" game…you can fly from street-level up to a certain point in the sky (very high obviously). Your standard left analog to move around…right analog to look. Hold L2 to hover and tap R2 to takeoff/land. Hold R2 to fly at superspeed (holding R2 for more than 7 seconds would result in you speeding up and thus creating a sonic boom. Unlike the "Superman Returns" game…when you break the sound barrier, you actually DO speed up and everything goes blurry just like your favorite racing games. L1 would activate your superpowers depending on what you have selected (heat vision, ice breath, x-ray vision). Selection would be assigned to the 3 directional buttons ala "God of War". R1 would serve as a lock-on function.
• Combat
Seeing as how Superman is stronger than everyone else and pretty much impervious to harm, there won't be an impressive martial arts combo like Batman or any other game. It'll be a simple punching combo. Square will give you a fairly weak/straightforward 1-2-3 combo. Triangle will give you a hard hitting 1-2 combo. Holding X will cause you to block attacks…but tapping X and any direction will cause you to zip-dodge at super speed. O to grab/interact with objects.
Random Stuff
Voice acting would be from the Timmverse cast. Anything else will just not do.
The beginning tutorial would be in the Fortress of Solitude flashback format with voiceover by Jor-El.
Bonuses
• Costumes
Different costumes would be unlocked at the end of the game depending on the difficulty setting the game was beat in. Beat it on easy and all you get is the option to choose between the normal suit or any of the Superman impostors from "Death of Superman". Beat it on normal and you get that option....as well as Godfall style costume and Red Sun costume. Beat it on hard and you get Kingdom Come costume as well as the bonus option to play thru the game as Supergirl just like you were able to play as Green Goblin in Spider-Man1.
