I'm sure I can't be the only person who's having this issue. Guild Beta apps are now being accepted for Champions Online. Just another sign that the next game from City of Heroes creator Cryptic Studios is nearing release. Open Beta can't be much further away, but I'm still jonesing to get my hands on the game.

Maybe it would be nice to have to wait until release, but the geek in me really wants to hop into the beta, report some bugs and say "Yeah, I was there in Closed Beta. Yeah. I know. I'm a big shot in the MMOG world." After I've said this, the person I'm talking to will either slap me, laugh, or punch me in the throat. That is, if I had any friends to talk to. I don't think my reflection will mind the conversation.
