Who says costumed heroes battling villains who look like they're fresh from trick-or-treating has gone out of style? Not Sony Online Entertainment as you can see from its latest project DC Universe Online. The first trailer for the PlayStation 3 and the PC was unveiled in E3 2008 and you can view it after the jump.

Call it the Chuck E. Cheese of the virtual worlds, if that moniker hasn't been taken by Neopets, Hello Kitty World, or whatever MMO Disney is cooking up now. It seems Nickelodeon's getting in on the action with Nicktropolis, a new virtual community they've created for Nick fans and kids everywhere to enjoy.

Now, the site isn't up yet, but the creators have promised that the place will allow for people to chat, make avatars based on Nickelodeon's rather extensive intellectual property, and play games with other members of the online metropolis.

They've also taken pains to ensure that the site is kid-friendly, with round-the-clock moderators watching for potential predators or trolls, as well as an automated dictionary to filter out profanity. They've also set up an option for parents to actually restrict kids from responding beyond pre-programmed answers. Not exactly something you'd see in an MMO, but it does seem like a very good idea for those folks who want to make sure their kids have a good place to play online.

Of course, given how the target demographic is a little younger than the folks over here, who are definitely either ready and able to play WoW or can at least enjoy "cooler" sounding games like Anarchy Online, at least we have an apt picture for you to enjoy thinking about.
