March 8^th, 2006 (4:54pm) - EA provided us with this target render from their development team. For those not familiar with the term, this image was created models used in the game. The developers place those models into a 3D program, add lighting and shadows, then render out an image to use as a goal. The game’s programmers use this goal image as a visual reference to build towards as they game progresses - basically, this is what they want the game to look like.

In this particular image, Superman battles a mysterious creature that’s broken out of Cadmus Labs. Cadmus is best known to comic book fans as the institution where the Superboy clone came from, as well as a whole host of other genetic experiments - some of which turned out better than others.
