PAX 08: Hands-On Champions Online
After hanging out with the guys from Cryptic Studios last night, we met up again today on the PAX floor so that we could play a little Champions Online. Champions is an upcoming MMO in which you play as a superhero, and the game is supposed to have a very good character creation system, making each hero completely unique. Each hero can also develop some skills as he or she progresses, as well as acquiring different types of weapons. Hit the jump to see how I liked it.
