City of Heroes Review

City of Heroes is a young online RPG, and if enough effort is placed in further fleshing-out its weaknesses then it will be truly worthy of praise. The recently announced expansion, City of Villains, promises, by means of allowing you to be a bad guy, to introduce genuine player-versus-player elements. This is a good start, and given how well executed the game's combat element is, could very much become the game's focus, over the next few years. As it stands now, though, City of Heroes is a fun enough diversion, especially if you're a hardened online RPG head that's tired of the demanding gameplay conventions common to the genre. It should be the breath of fresh air you're looking for. For the 30-day trial period, anyway.
