Gaming Nexus: Champions Online Interview

Gaming Nexus writes: "Q: Can you introduce yourself and describe your role on the project? How long have you been in the gaming industry and what drew you to your current position?

A: My name is Chris Lena and I am the Senior Producer on Champions Online. I have been working on these MMO things for about 7 years.

Q: Why did you decide to adapt the Champions system instead of rolling your own new hero series? What are the advantages and disadvantages of this approach?

A: A lot of people here at Cryptic have always had a deep fondness and respect for Champions and the other Hero Games products. Besides Champions being a kick ass game in its own right it is a fantastic story for an MMO. Remember that Champions and its heroes, villains, locations, and stories have been developed and played since 1981. That is a incredibly deep well to draw on."
