Milky Way Galaxy Spitzer Telescope

This infrared photograph was taken by the Spitzer Space Telescope. “The region pictured here is immense, with a horizontal span of 890 light-years and a vertical span of 640 light-years. Earth is located 26,000 light-years away, out in one of the Milky Way’s spiral arms. Though most of the objects seen in this image are located at the galactic center, the features above and below the galactic plane tend to lie closer to Earth.” – Click to enlarge, or click here for a super high resolution version (29MB).

Check out this developer walkthrough for DC Universe Online. You can choose to be a hero or a villain, customize your powers and appearance, and of course, since it’s an MMO, you can PVP and do quests.

I’m really looking forward to this game. I’ve quit the World of Warcraft probably for good, and I think this is the kind of MMO I really want to play. This footage isn’t that exciting, but at least we get to see a little bit of how the game works. I do like the way this game looks, and the idea of being a hero or villain, having epic battles with actual people, but I think I’d rather play Marvel Universe Online. Nothing against DC, but Marvel just has a lot more great characters and stories.

DC Universe Online is being released on the PS3 and PC. I’ll definitely be getting this one for the PC. I can’t really imagine playing an MMO on a console. The release date is not set yet, but look for it before the end of the year.

Watch the 2nd part of this video after the break.

It looks like the United States release of Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe will be censoring The Joker’s fatality. I’m assuming that if they censor The Joker’s, they’ll be censoring others as well. I don’t believe the censoring has been confirmed, but the video shows it. Notice the zooms in on The Joker before he shoots the other guy in the head. When The Joker’s fatality was first revealed, you saw the entire thing, headshot and blood. To see the full, uncensored fatality, watch THIS VIDEO.

Here we see Liu Kang’s fatality, Baraka’s fatality, and Batman’s “Heroic Brutality”. I think they all suck. I’ve yet to see a fatality or brutality that is better than The Joker’s.

Seems pretty stupid. Then again, do any fighting games have good story lines? I just want to use The Joker’s fatality, then I’d be done with the game probably.
