What is CoV AKA City of Villains?
CoV AKA City of Villains is a MMORPG. See the MMO, MMOG, and MMORPG Reviews page for more information on the different types. In essence, City of Villains is a RPG that you play on your computer with other people from around the world. Unfortunately, it can’t be played as a stand-alone game because it needs to connect to their servers, and you’re charged $15 US per month for that. You can get the game City of Villains in the City of Heroes / City of Villains: Good Versus Evil Edition that they sell in some stores for around $30 US, and you still need to pay for the time you use on their servers. Fortunately, if you’re like some of us who don’t have a credit card, there’s Play NC game time cards you can buy for about $15 US which are good for 30 days of play. I found out the hard way that despite the fact that the City of Villains game box that I bought a while back said on the outside of it “FIRST MONTH OF PLAY INCLUDED”, if you didn’t have a credit card, you had to make the trip back
