Sony Online finally revealed a playable version of their upcoming super hero MMO DC Universe Online at the San Diego Comic Con this week and our sister site Game Daily got a chance to chat with Sony Online CEO John Smedley about the game which currently doesn't have a release date

Smedley feels that DC Universe Online will help to bring a broader audience to the MMO genre than other titles, saying "Maybe they've heard of an MMO, but they've never played one. With iconic characters like Batman and Superman, we can bring those folks into the game." He also feels that the MMO market is larger than some people believe, saying, "I think you're looking at a potential audience in the U.S. of 20 to 30 million people who play some kind of MMO."
