The super hero genre in massively multiplayer online games has been a
popular one ever since Jack Emmert and Cryptic Studios broke into the
marketplace with
City of Heroes / Villains. For
their next title, Cryptic opted to shy away from a
City of Heroes
sequel and instead focused their attentions on the Champions license,
creating a wholly new game named
Champions Online that appears
action packed and a whole lot of fun to play. At GenCon 2008, Ten Ton
Hammer’s Jeff Woleslagle got a chance to record the first raw
footage from Champions Online while chatting with Cryptic’s
Zeke Sparks. It’s a pretty intense video with lots of new
information, so don’t miss it.
Ten Ton Hammer has a whole slew of
Champions
Online info for you to peruse, including an
exclusive interview with Jack Emmert from GenCon, more
gameplay
video, a
presentation by Emmert, and much,
much more!
