Ok so out of boredom I have decided to start gaming again. I chose the lesser of the evils, which means I'm playing the game I find the least addictive. (Which is not a direct correlation to fun of the game.)
Anyway, I'm playing City of Heroes again and have created a new Super Hero to augment my characters. I also decided to use her as my avatar, since her image is a bit more sfw. ;) So my new hero, Candi Cotton, and her sidekick Meow run around Paragon City saving helpless citizens from certain demize by all sorts of unscrupulous characters.
If you haven't played, this is a really neat little time filler. The character creation is one of the best I've seen in terms of character options, the graphics are stunning, and the gameplay requirements are very low compared to similar games on the market. And of course I can't forget the AI. Having citizens point out my accomplishments as I walk down the streets is a nice ego boost. Seeing a chat bubble with 'I heard Candi Cotton single handedly took out XYZ!' just never gets old! ;P
I'll get around to posting some pictures at some point. TTFN!

What kind of software/etc. requirements does it have?
You know, my favorite gaming company in the world, Eden Studios, is making a tabletop RPG based on City of Heroes.

Yes!
Buy the game! You can play with me and my friends Chris and Jarrod. If I'm feeling really nice I'll let you be part of our Supergroup, the Superstars. ;)
