With more than 3 million units sold, legions of passionate fans and heaps of critical acclaim, “Guild Wars” is probably the most popular massively multiplayer online game you’ve never heard of.

Where do they find these people?!

If its a RPG and its online it's considered a MMO by the "mainstream"

It twists the nipples of the MMO formula.

Played the demo for like a week, got bored, quit. The game has no personality imo. Perhaps I'm biased because going into WoW I already had an understanding of the WarCraft series

I suspect Guild Wars is only fun if you have a Guild

I played it during all those free weekends and beta stuff they kept putting out before the game was out. By the time the game came out I had already played enough of the game to get bored and not want to buy it lol.

Guild Wars PVP is the only thing it had going for it.

I won't go near it again until Guild Wars 2.
