This game may be good, but it has its faults.

The Bottom Line:
"Almost, but not quite"
Now believe me, this game is pretty good. But it just doesn't have the reach I was looking for. At first, this game seemed amazing to me, a whole new world of multi player. I loved it, and I spent hour after hour on it, leveling up my villain. The character creation is amazing, with so many options. You will very rarely ever see two people that look the same. There are lots of nice zones to go through, each filled with major crime that you can either join, or stop. Head into a PvP zone, and take out some hero's. It's fun stuff, but as you dig deeper into the game, toward its core, it's just not all that good. The missions become very repetitive. Ranging from a bank robbery, to a "Kill Everybody There" mission. And you just keep doing it, and doing it. After a while, it just doesn't cut it, and it makes you crave for more. And that is where this game fails, and loses its hype. There is no more, and it ends right there. You want more to this game, and want to fill its potential, but it crushes you down right there.

Some of the servers seem to have a lug bug, which goes around randomly. Totally crushing the server with a severe lag every few seconds, which drives most players crazy, and has them to do something else for the day. I would say the only good aspect in this game, is the PvP arena's. Other than that, I wouldn't use the money on it. After a month, I was done.
