Champions Online customization inventively revealed via 'Rate My Champion'

By allowing everyone access to tons of in-game superheros via a voting system on their official site, Cryptic has found an ingenious method of simultaneously showing off Champions Online's character creation complexity and web integration tools. After poking around the available characters, we're really quite impressed with the variety of tech, mutated and magic heroes being shown.

As lovers of steampunk and sci-fi in general, we're all for the powersuits and gadgetry goodies. But with that being said, there's a lot more than tech gear offered options-wise in Champions Online. The game is filled with stuff like demons and armor-clad angel warriors strewn throughout the gallery as well. Not to mention delightful aberrations like "Rudy The Red-nosed Pain-Deer" which is rightfully sitting in first place as of the writing of this post.

Between costumes, nemeses and power customization we're starting to sense a future where things like sleep and proper nutrition are replaced by an endless stream of freshly designed characters.
