      Well I played just as it went live and gets boring really fast. So a weekend is about right.

          I was really impressed with all of the little changes they've made to CoH since last year. It was really fun to jump back into it.

      Not worth it to be honest. It's becomes shallow.

      I was subbed to this for 3 months personally i like it a lot the only thing I like more from City Of Villains is robbing banks heh. So I think you should give it a shot and see what you think.

      I played City of Heros/Villians for over 5 years. Played this as soon as it came out for about 2 months. It sucked in comparison. Very very boring. Thought for sure it would get better as I progressed, but no. Character design is dull, levels are dull, music and sound is dull and repetitive, and just seemed hollow overall. Not even worth the download IMHO.
