Here are two new screenshots sent to us for the nwe Justice League Heroes game. Normally, I'd write this game off as another lame attempt at turning a hit TV show into a game but since it's from the folks at Snowblind Studios, I'm really excited to see how this game turns out. I've lost many hours to Champions of Norrath and Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance so you can't blame me for having high hopes for Justice League Heroes. Here's the press release:

About Author

I've been reviewing products since 1997 and started out at Gaming Nexus. As one of the original writers, I was tapped to do action games and hardware. Nowadays, I work with a great group of folks on here to bring to you news and reviews on all things PC and consoles.

As for what I enjoy, I love action and survival games. I'm more of a PC gamer now than I used to be, but still enjoy the occasional console fair. Lately, I've been really playing a ton of retro games after building an arcade cabinet for myself and the kids. There's some old games I love to revisit and the cabinet really does a great job at bringing back that nostalgic feeling of going to the arcade.
