Champions Online Open Beta Part 1
Day 1 A patching nightmare. While I want to take Cryptic’s response at face value, I know how much spin happens in the industry; particularly when something bad happens.  The good news it happened in the beta, and they have a couple of weeks to try and fix it. Yes the latest installer from […]
