What do you get if you mix a solid, well-known developer, add some ideas from other MMOs, toss in elements out of a pen and paper role playing game, and top it all off with a release day patch that mucks everything up? You get a slightly buggy and somewhat unfinished game that is extremely fun to play. The game in question is Champions Online, a super hero themed massively multiplayer online game from developer Cryptic Studios. If the words ‘super hero’ and ‘Cryptic Studios’ sound familiar, it's because Cryptic happens to be the developer of the only successful super hero themed MMO to date, City of Heroes. The challenge that Cryptic faces will be if Champions Online offers gamers something completely original, or if it's just merely City of Heroes 2.0.
