According to a lot of developers, it's apparently damn near impossible to make a good superhero game. 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 had read about the cancelled Superman game, Blue Steel, and its sad that it was never given a shot. 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.
