Bizarro to be a Playable Character in Superman Returns

In GameSpy’s latest preview of the new Superman Returns videogame the biggest change aside from slightly improved visuals and sounds was the news that gamers will be able to play as Bizarro, the evil failed clone of Superman himself. This is what they had to say when they saw Bizarro in action:

As you’d hope and expect, Bizarro looks like a deranged Clark Kent on steroids. His special moves are mirror images of Superman’s and are geared towards the mass destruction of Metropolis and its inhabitants.

For example, Bizarro doesn’t have Freezing Breath, but rather Heat Breath. This is particularly nasty when used on the street levels of the city, and can take out huge areas of pedestrians, cars and objects at once.

Like Superman, Bizarro will have his own set of mission objectives and tasks to complete, mainly revolving around wreaking havoc and causing chaos..

So it looks like this might be one of the reasons that Superman Returns: The Videogame is being delayed although it should still be hitting stores before the end of the year. The game, which features story lines from both the movie and more than 60 years of comic book content is being made by Electronic Arts-Tiburon in Orlando, Fla., the studio that develops Madden NFL. When more news becomes available we’ll be sure to keep you informed.
