Freedom Force vs. the Third Reich Preview

GameSpot has put together a preview of Freedom Force vs. the Third Reich, after recently seeing the superhero RPG sequel firsthand. A snippet, as usual:
The new game will also feature improved artificial intelligence for your superpowered comrades, since the original game was commonly criticized for the way your team of superheroes would sometimes do very little to defend itself if you weren't actively managing each member. To remedy this issue, Irrational has implemented a more-aggressive AI for your heroes, along with a suite of new superpowers that has zero energy costs. These new features have been added to make sure that your superheroes don't run off and expend all their energy while you're not looking. The new game will also segment your heroes' energy meters into three parts to provide a clear indication of whether or not you have enough energy to perform more-powerful abilities--like ones that might cost a specific hero two-thirds of an energy bar or even one entire energy bar.
