With Shino's help I tried to get this running on my Mac via Bootcamp, needless to say it didn't go well. Game was playable only at the lowest settings and I really didn't dig Mouse/Keyboard controls. So I'm gonna wait and pray that the 360 version will be out soon and then I catch up to you guys...if your still playing that is.

Latah...

Chibs, are you saying it's cross play between the PC and 360?
If so then their chars will be waaaay beyond newbies but it would be cool to have some bodyguards showing us the ropes.

Aiman - I'm not going to build a PC just to play the game lol...which is why I was hoping I could get away with "playing" it on my Mac

Razer - Nothings confirmed yet on anything 360 wise. But seeing as how its PC, I'm hoping for cross compatibility between PC and 360.

Apparently MS is the big hold up for the 360 version

Probably trying to see how they can make some money off of it. Could this be Deja Vu all over again (ala Marvel Superheroes Online)?

I'm sure if this was a first party thing or something specifically licensed for the XB it would have had a solid laubch date, probably around XMas time.

I see...

"Champions Online will probably never get to be as popular as the current king of the MMOs, World of Warcraft from Blizzard; still, the game will surely find a niche market amongst those interested in superpowers, made villains and saving the world.

The videogame is set to arrive on September 1 but only those who play on the PC will be able to enjoy it initially. The fact that the Xbox 360 version of Champions Online is not debuting on the same date seems to have something to do with Microsoft and its approval process.

Jack Emmert, who is the Chief Operation Officer of Cryptic Studios, the maker of the game, has told VG247 that “Microsoft's a big company, and they have to work out all the various issues related to MMOs. It just takes time for the big beast known as Microsoft to get moving. I really have no explanation other than that, because it's as baffling to developers as it is to everyone else”.

Cryptic says that the MMO is ready to come out on the Xbox 360 and that considerations related to how Xbox Live works seem to be the cause behind Microsoft’s not approving the game at the moment.

It's not clear how long the process will take and whether the title will see a release date this year, which means that the buzz around Champions Online will probably be long gone before the Xbox 360 version is out. Superheroes might be able to do a lot of things in videogame but they probably will not be able to get Xbox 360 users to pick up the game if the release is delayed significantly.

The people at Square Enix, who have been working on Final Fantasy XIV, have reported similar problems with Microsoft, meaning that the Square Enix MMO will not be coming to the latter’s gaming console. "


Cryptic will definitely see lower sales if it releases later than Feb 2010, I believe, as the buzz dies and the PC users begin publicizing the bugs and faults. If that happens (and a small part of me hopes it does) then I hope they realize it would have served them better to release it for 360 and PS3...or PS3 alone since it looks way better than Sony/WB's DC Universe Online.

F'ing Bill Gates.

I'm posting here what I posted in the official forums. I made some level progression maps to help out players who aren't sure where to go when they're at a certain level. Hope it helps!

Nice... well done Ryan!

I've been looking for places to level up. 18 right now and most of the quests I'm seeing are 19.

Robb! Nice! I added you!
