As long as there have been videogames there have been videogames about superheroes. It seems like a natural fit -you have a medium that allows players to perform any action that the developers can imagine, and a genre about larger than life heroes and villains with powers far beyond those of normal men and women.
So why is it that so few superhero games are any good; let alone make the player feel as though they're in any way superhuman?

Well, who knows. It'd probably be about gangs, drugs and stealing cars...
I'd like to see what they'd do with a super hero game, actually. Say all you want about rockstar but they make good games.

It depends, but I think the Superman games usually fail because they make him invincible. I don't care if you can still fail if you fail to save citizens or something, that's not what I consider a tense and exciting scenario.
it seems like only batman and spiderman have been successful in video game market.
but ya most of them fail because they are movie based games, and are quickly made just for easy $$$$.
I would love to see rocksteady make a superman game.

This week's "What They've Been Playing" features discussion of FUEL, Trials HD, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Prototype, Gear of War 2, Red Faction: Guerrilla, and much more.

They follow that up with some gaming news including the ridiculous pricing of Games On Demand for the Xbox 360 and the delay for the console versions of Dragon Age: Origins.
