Poll: Best Super Hero MMORPG

[Kilroy17]

I'm looking to play a super hero mmorpg and I can't decide between DC Universe, City of Heroes and Champions Online. Recommend which ever one you feel is best.

I've tried all 3 and will unequivocally say go with City of Heroes. It has 8 years of continuously developed content; over 600 (!) different class and power set combinations (all of which play differently and virtually all of which are viable); a very finely tuned and well balanced combat system and a terrific costume customisation system that lets you choose what you want to look like at level 1 and doesn't force you to sacrifice concept for 'gear.'

2 disclaimers: 1) CoH is not a PVP game. it does exist but if PVP is your main interest then look elsewhere. 2) The F2P option is rather restrictive so to get the most of it consider paying for VIP for a bit and you'll enjoy it a lot more.

Thanks that's very helpful.
