Welcome to the Blackhorse Faction!


    You've found the home of the Blackhorse Faction.  The Blackhorse Faction has been the home of online gamers for various games in the past.  The site has been recreated in a new format to hopefully encompass all aspects of its gaming interests.  Former PC games include Everquest, City of Heroes, Everquest 2, Dungeons & Dragons Online, Pirates of the Burning Sea, Battlefield 2, Medal of Honor, the Call of Duty series, and currently multiple games on the Xbox 360 console.  Join us in our adventures.

    The next venture will be in the cross-platform game Champions Online.  Powered by the groundbreaking Cryptic Engine, Champions Online will be developed for both Xbox 360 and PC formats. With literally billions of character options allowing total customization, real-time action combat, the richly detailed Champions universe and an experienced Cryptic Studios(City of Heroes) team devoted to working directly with gamers to deliver a great gaming experience, Champions Online is set to be the premier superheroic massively multiplayer online role playing game.

Nice Gen-Con video of Champions
Champions Online
This is a nice video on TenTonHammer.com of Champions Online gameplay.  It's the best I've seen so far in clarity and ability to actually see what is going on.  After watching I think I like the "comic book" look to the graphics a little better than I did previously.  The was some definite action to the gameplay.  It looked as if you don't actually lock-on to the target, but have to manually face them to continue attack them.

Update to Xbox 360
Xbox 360     The newest update for the Xbox 360 will involve a redesign of the dashboard.  I suppose it is actually a complete overhaul.  Gone will be the tabs to the left and right displaying the different menus.  Now there is a more "Vista-esque" display.  It looks as if the gamercard itself has been given a make-over.  There doesn't appear to be a spot for your gamer picture on the card anymore.  I wonder what the status is on that?  Are they seen somewhere else?  Are they gone completely?

Champions Newsfeed
Blackhorse Faction There is now a scrolling block on the right side of the page that displays an RSS newsfeed from MMORPG.com about Champions Online.  I don't know why the Champions Online site doesn't have it's own RSS newsfeed or I would have linked directly to theirs.  At least MMORPG has a feed for it.
