Ok I backed out of my Champions Online Preorder. I kind of lost interest and trying to save a little bit of money too. I also got rid of my Warhammer subscription.

Lately Ive been playing Dungeons & Dragons Online since its free and I wanted to try it to see how much was done since they published this game. I’m actually impressed with it. Its really story-driven. Graphics-wise its probably at par with Guild Wars. There are limits since its a free game like there’s a fee if you want to create a Monk or a Drow character and such. Not so bad really.

Rate My Champion…

I didn’t think much on the names since they’re going to be wiped soon anyway.

Kabutocan (I like the Kanji character names on the shoulder pads, you cant see it from this angle, click on the image to get a different view)
Kabutocan: Armored guy

Salome (the knives around his costume are all fake lol)
Salome: sword guy

Martine (I got this guy up to level 7, I wanted the 1920′s or 30s crimefighter look)
Martine: Pistol fighter

Barduk (First character I made, wears a skirt above his pants)
Barduk: martial arts

Eizenzhan (Fallen angel look, looks great when flying)
Eizenzhan: Other-worldy character

So I made a few characters in Champions Online, too bad it’s the beta so they’ll probably be erased after the weekend. Costuming is quite a fun for those who are into it. I took some screenshots but I think its not a good idea to post them while the game isn’t out yet. I probably tried a few power sets, I’m still trying to get used to the controls since they also added ‘blocking’ as an ability which is actually a great idea.
Not sure if its a good idea to discuss more details since it’s just the beta. Might end up getting in trouble in this.

I also played Batman : Arkham Asylum Demo over the weekend which took me maybe…. 10 minutes? I thought it was fun, one part of it is repeatable if you like trying to beat up goons while hiding in the shadows. Great graphics too.
