MMORPG - MMOCrunch - World of Warcraft

Before I begin with my list allow me, if you will, to explain that I am basing this entirely off the “cool” factor of the class. Any actual functionality or usability isn’t really taken into account.

I ask this question because it seems like nobody else in the industry is going to ask it. Why is Cryptic Studios making Champions Online?
