    The graphics of GW never seem to stop looking brand new. WAR had worse graphics and lagged that horrid month...

    Good game, but maybe a little boring.

    @-Elite Bare in mind this is 4 and a half years old now dude, it's not totally empty, but you might end up taking NPC's along for alot of your missions. Although this isn't a contender to Diablo 3. Now Guild Wars 2 will contend with D3, no doubt.

    I tried the demo of Guild Wars and loved it! Now I'm between a rock and a hard place though. Get the Trilogy edition for $50 or get the GOTY edition for $20?
    Hm. No monthly fees is a big plus, however in my book. The only game that could beat this would be D3 which I heard may not have a monthly fee. Who knows. This game is out and has 3 expansion packs already released. D3 hardly has any info out. Guild Wars it is!

    This game is just epic. It is so unique, it plays like am mmo but feels like an action-RPG, you can compete with people around the world as a guild for PvP titles and, omg, its just awesome....NO FEES!!!!! I have no idea how they fund the cash for this game, but the Money I spent on it is worthwhile. I also play WoW and thoroughly enjoy both GW and WoW, but WoW is dead expensive to continue playing. I can only keep up the payments for about 4 months then I gotta wait another 8...so I play this game when I run out. And its awesome

    My favourite game of all time. Seeing how packed the cities are in this video made me sad and the old layouts and menues made me well nostalgic lol :] Decent review

    Bought it on launch and to this day I have 2200+ hours clocked in. No game has captivated me like this. Love the anti-grinding and fair play. Have 7 pve chars and 1 pvp char, always return for the pvp. Anet

    This game is awesome I have had it for years and it has addicted me MULTIPLE times. I like it more than pretty much any other MMO (yes I have tried WoW multiple times and every time I could not get myself addicted to it) and on top of that it has no monthly fees. Complete win, I say.

    Hmm... I've played this game pretty much, but before I was able to complete the campaign it just started to get deadly boring It's a great game but I guess that I'm just picky! ^^

    I haven't been into MMORPG's up to date. But I've played the WoW trial and now I'm hooked! heh But definitely not paying monthly fee. So Guild Wars it is!

    i was always skeptical about any MMO that had a monthly fee (such as WoW which i hated and EVEonline which i loved but just didnt want to pay monthly for it) this however gave me the best of both worlds, a great MMO that i can play with my mates and doesnt have P2P bull attached.

    Do people still play this game? I still have an account from like '05, tired of WoW, currently playing FFXI again now that they updated it. I'm thinking of playing GW again, though I believe I got tired of it (my highest was Elem/Monk 1.

    I recently got the Trilogy in a magazine so now I have the Nightfalls expansion and Factions. Did they raise the level cap? Add in some good stuff?

    I like my RPGs but i very picky. I didn't even like WoW.
    Now Guild Wars on the other hand I love! Its got good graphics, a Great storyline and some fantastic original gameplay but most of all the game has great pace. There are very few boring bits in it unlike WoW which i found slow for the most part.

    Guild Wars = 9/ 10

    He's one of my very favorite reviewers to watch. He's always got a comfortable sounding narrative and interesting points.
    Maybe I'm too nerdy myself, but I think he's cute!
