The Legacy of Booster Gold
While I have been disappointed to learn that Booster Gold may not be an actual character model in the game DC Universe Online, my spirits have been buoyed by this image, the best I've gotten yet of Booster's in-game Flakiesâ„¢ advertisement:
The pic is of Jeremey Hudson's avatar, Booster Silver, who Jeremey describes as akin to "the Red Arrow to Queen's Green Arrow." No doubt we will soon see a Silverstar flying around. Thanks for the pic, Jeremy.

Sometimes You Want to Go
DC Universe Online launched one week ago today, and it seems that it has already exposed an all-new audience to Booster Gold, if the GameSpot forums are any indication. On Sunday, a new forum topic was started titled "Who the hell's Booster Gold?" If this game introduces even one player to Booster Gold, I say it was all worth it. You can find the thread here.

DC Universe Online is Online
DC Universe Online ships worldwide today.
I'm iced in, so my local gaming store might as well be in Metropolis. However, I trust that sooner or later someone out there will play it and give us a review of Booster Gold's surprisingly prominent role as official DC tour guide.

Booster Gold, Spokesman
Now that I have a computer that may actually be able to play DC Universe Online, I'm probably a little more excited about the game due out this coming February. Especially after reading the following:
There are also secondary quests that are given through interactions with the world such as the aforementioned kiosk which begins a series of quests that show you around the landmarks of the zones (for those that like the DC lore, Booster Gold drives you around these quests and each area you visit is accompanied by a nice little fly around and commentary by Booster Gold throwing in the expected Booster Gold product placement which I had to laugh at sometimes).

Having previously learned that Booster would be the game's tour guide from Massively.com's interview with Chris Cao, I returned to that source for more information. Sure enough, Larry Everett confirms this in a recent review of the game.
In each safehouse, Booster Gold has kiosks that grant tour missions. Each one of these level-appropriate guided tours takes you to all the important places around Gotham City and Metropolis while the tour guide gives humorous commentary about himself and the various locations.
--Massively.com
What I still don't know is who is voicing Booster Gold (Tom Everett Scott?). Whoever it is, if Booster is selling, I'm buying.

DC Universe Offline
The long awaited, Booster Gold-including DC Universe Online is being pushed back to a 2011 release. ComicsAlliance.com has the press release, which indicates that the game's release was pushed back for quality assurance reasons. I assume that in this day and age where games are released with complementary bugs that require extensive patching, quality assurance means that they want the game to be bootable, if not actually playable.
