Champions Online Villain 'Gigaton' Unmasked

IncGamers reports that details have emerged about a new villain in the upcoming MMO, Champions Online.

Gigaton, aka Tim Colton, was once an ordinary soldier, but when a military nuclear test went wrong he was put into a coma. While being cared for and studied by army doctors, who noticed his super abilities developing, Dr Destroyer's spy Raksasha found him and took his comatose body back to the villain's hideaway.

He looks very cool, and that's all stuff you can put on your own character.

Customization is king.

military nuclear test eh? That old chestnut!

[AndyA]

Pretty cool. Really looking forward to Champions.

Definitely looks like it has an edge over City of... I mean just the game design, not the graphics.

Since it's coming from the same makers of CoH, I wouldn't doubt that one bit.

He's got Magneto's helmet!

[Redrudy]

I knew I recognised it from somewhere.

He borrowed the helmet and took it to a mechanic named Joe, who altered the appearance, using his hidden talent of forging unknown intergalactic metals into weapons of true mass destruction.

I will assume that helmet has the power to sexually satisfy Wonder Woman, where many have failed.

Hehe, pretty classic super power gain there :)

This is anything is dangerous, you don't want your kids taking a dip in the local radioactive pool :)

[UIOP]

Pretty good name on him too, as nuclear bombs are measured in megaton, and "gigaton" implies he is 1000 times more potent then that ;)

[Baka-akaB]

Every pre-existing heroes and villains have been pretty lame so far .
it's great that you can do far better with customization

Is this game coming out on X360 this year? I heard it is crossed Platform online play compatible.
