intox Gaming

Firstly, apologies for the complete lack of content the past few weeks. I've spent too much time gaming, working and spending time with the girly and have totally neglected my commitment to the portal page.

Anyway, I remember a while back I posted about an upcoming Marvel MMO which seemed to have people interested. Well today I was browsing Steam and came across Champions Online, a game to be released on Steam on the 1st September. I must admit, on first glance I thought the scenery looked absolutely stunning. The entire game is cel-shaded, an effect that will probably split possible buyers 50-50. I personally love how it looks. Its both edgy and wacky at the same time and fits in with an alternate reality featuring superheroes. Its been on show at Comic-con 09, so I imagine Cow may have seen it, perhaps he will bring us news.

Anyhow, to stop this from becoming a true wall of text, here is the link to the Steam page about it.

And here are some videos showing gameplay and character creation:

Looks interesting but cell shading + mmo would blow my comp up.

It's been done.
