PC - Champions Online - Name a park, win a Champions Online beta key Massively:

"So, Champions Online. Apparently a lot of you are interested in that game. Who knew? If you'd like to be immortalized in-game in addition to receiving a beta key, then boy do we have the contest to point you towards. Naming a park isn't so hard, really. We suggest combining some kind of heroic figure or event, with a plant one associates with parks. Something like Alien Invasion Ficus Park may suffice, but we should mention we're not judges."

IncGamers asked Bill if Cryptic would be adding this as a feature to Champions, and he admitted that it was on the cards.

PC - Champions Online - Champions Online has no server shards Massively:

"Nearly every MMO on the market has them: server shards. Whether they're named after game characters or places they all present the same problem -- limiting a player's options. Whenever a new MMO comes out, friends must discuss and agree upon which server to choose and it's not always the smoothest discussion. Enter Champions Online, who is going the way of Guild Wars: No servers, but instead a large list of all the current instances of the particular zone you're attempting to enter."

PC - Champions Online - Champions Online: The Bleak Ones New information on Champions Online's villains, The Bleak Ones, has emerged.

Based in the Sunken City of Lemuria, The Bleak Ones watch in glee as the Lemurians have slowly lost their powers and then their land, after turning their backs on their creators:

"They howled in rage when the Lemurians turned from them to worship false gods. They exacted revenge and publicly tortured the soul of the false prophet upon his death. They laughed to see their Lemurian children lose the ability to change shape. They delighted to watch Lemuria sink into the sea amidst fire and chaos. They have waited, and hungered for thousands of years, as the Lemurians strove for immortality."

PC - Champions Online - Champions Online and the Bronze King of Lemuria Massively:

"Since the first moment we saw the three-faced figure in Champions Online's Lemuria screens, we know he was of vast importance. As it turns out, that guess was quite right.

Known as the Bronze King, he is a magical construct made from sacrificed minds of the last wizened Priest-king and his priests of old. He was a just and proper ruler for many years, but as magic in the world waned, so did his sanity. Now a magical puppet of current Lemurian King Arvad, the Bronze King is of no threat to Lemuria or the world. If, however, Arvad's magic leash were to be loosened, the entire world would be in danger."
