Is this any good? I got the free DVD of it from PC Zone (I'm a subscriber) and it has 30 free days. Installed and currently downloading a 700mb patch.
City of Villains
Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/City of Villains I've played it since the beta and loved it.
Don't play it anymore though.
They are allowing people who bought City of Heroes to play CoV and vice-versa.
If you like marvel and dc comic stuff, then you'll love it.

Not particularly :) But I'll give it a shot. Maybe it will appeal to my inner Fu Manchu.
seeing as you have 30 days free, why not.
Playing as a Mastermind is pretty cool, as is the brute (it's a bit too easy with a brute as they are damage dealing tanks)

bleh, just like any mmo it gets old really fast.
Yeah I liked it. When it came out a couple years back I was hooked on it for 3 months nonstop before realizing how much of my life has wasted away. I try as much to stay away from MMORPGs ever since then...
Logged in. Spent about 20 minutes creating a character. He looked awful, so I clicked 'generate random' a few times then tweaked my character a bit (got rid of the stupid elf ears).
So the game itself. I had to escape something or other. Had to click on a few characters to talk to them. They were all equally dull. Repetitive alarm noise going off. It asked me something about accepting quests and abilities and stuff. Just clicked through it all really. Then I had to attack a couple of baddies. Cue button clicking and waiting 3 seconds between attacks. Took about a minute to kill 2 guys. Return to quest giver. Gained experience. I then clicked the 'menu' button, then 'Quit game', followed by a swift 'Return to desktop', clicked 'Start -> City of Villains -> Uninstall -> Give me the last 45 minutes of my life back'.
Trial over.
