CoV revisited

OK - well, after downloading the 2.4gig "patch" for the second time - I manage to log in to City of Villans Open Beta.

My first impressions are that it's exceptionally similar to City of Heroes in almost every aspect. But that's no bad thing I guess, if you're a big fan of CoH, which I'm not.

The avatars are still bound by the same sort of rules for customisation as CoH but this time there is a "beast" option. So, see below for Mastermind Kroy as a beast. The grey guy behind him is Kroy's pet ninja.

I guess the game is kinda fun, but not enough to keep me paying the subscription, when Pay to Play comes in the next few days.
