Justice League Heroes developer, roster announced
For those wondering what Snowblind Studios has been up to, let Justice be served! The Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance and Champions of Norrath developer has been identified as the architect behind Justice League Heroes, an action-RPG due out this fall for Xbox, PS2, and PSP.
Warner Bros. Interactive also confirmed the official roster of playable characters and said there would be more to unlock. Maybe we'll get to see Green Arrow, Black Canary, and Hawkwoman in action. Justice for all!

When I first heard the stories, I thought they were *strictly* basing it on the show. The models I see now, don't look like it, but aside from Zantanna it really seems like they kind of are. They've got the writer from JLU TV series to do the story, and I'd imagine they'll probably get the same voices.

Perhaps one of the missions can include raiding DC headquarters and bringing its executives to justice for stealing our language and assaulting our culture:

No GC version? :(
I heard there was a console game based on the Unlimited series myself (I actually remember seeing screenshots) so I wondered what happened to that.
I find it really funny that the Batman model looks a lot like the stock art from Batman: Dark Tomorrow. :P
R.I.P. Justice League series.

Why do they never use the Silver Age Green Lantern?! Oh woe is me...

Aquaman would be a fish out of water if most of the maps are land-based. Cartoon Network made light of his abilities a few years ago in that Super Friends/Powerpuff Girls commercial when the girls rescue him and Wonder Woman from the Legion of Doom. I believe he says, "It's no use Wonder Woman, my ability to talk to fishes isn't helping", and Diana just rolls her eyes.
They're probably using the John Stewart Green Lantern because he's more current, same as Wally West instead of Barry Allen as Flash. Stewart also adds some much needed ethnic diversity to the League.
Snowblind's game engines rock, so this should be even better than X-Men Legends.
