With so many big name DC heroes, you'd think we'd be getting big budget games about them constantly, but outside of the Batman Arkham games we don't have much to show for it in recent history.

I've heard it justified as needing to find the right balance between gameplay and character power level. Like it's kinda tricky to make a lore-accurate Superman game, but people like me enjoyed Superman Returns back in the day for what it was.

I agree, we should try to figure out who the next best staple voice could be, but it's also hard when the fans don't usually want to give new voices a chance. That said I think Hamish Linklater (Batman: Caped Crusader) and Bruce Greenwood (Young Justice) are really good contenders for the role.

Superman in city-destroying brawls with Braniac/Zod/Darkseid or Wonder Woman fighting mythical Greek beasts in a modern setting just seems like a game that should already exist.
