VG ZONE: Champions Online goes Free-to-Play



Recently, Cryptic’s superhero MMO Champions Online went free-to-play, allowing any player to download and play the game.  Current subscribers have now become Gold Members, which gives them access to special costumes and mission packs among other things.  For the free player, the game is pretty much the same as the Gold version, except for the fact that free players cannot create a totally original character with any powers they want.  Instead, free players choose an “Archetype” such as The Grimoire (a sorcerer) and The Inferno (basically a Human Torch rip-off).  While gameplay can seem repetitive at times, overall Champions Online is worth the free download.
