With the release of
Cryptic's new MMO,
Champions Online, there are now two superhero MMOs on the market. The first is
Cryptic's old game,
City of Heroes (now under the direction of
Paragon Studios under
NCsoft), and the distinctions between the two are very striking. If you don't have the money to throw down on subscriptions to both games, though, you probably want to choose just one. That's where we come in. We've played both
Champions Online and
City of Heroes extensively, and here's a comparison for what you want. Do you prefer character customization or content? We know the right game for your tastes.
