guild wars

I tried. It gets old real quick. There is no real auction/bizaar type system. EVERYTHING is instanced...except for the small towns where you can meet up and form groups/sell stuff. You can have I believe it is 6 or 8 spells up on your bar at one time. The game looks nice and runs good on not so uber machines, but that's about it. I give it about a 3.5 out of a 10.

This being said, I have friends that play nightly and think it's the best thing ever created. (Of course, one of them has never played any MMO before GW.)

My GF and I play. At this point in time, I no longer play any MMO and have stuck with GW.

It's basically the only game that's been able to hold my attention.

do you pay a price per month?

Its free to play, after you purchase the initial software. I like it because I can play it in short stints unlike games like EQ where if I logged on I would end up playing for like 4 hours minimum

I agree missions don't take too long, so you are not forced into 4-5 hour sessions. I guess it does have it's good points. Just not enough to hold my attention for any length of time. I log in every few weeks and check it out.

I like how the events give items and masks... that really don't have stats or any real use. They're just fun to collect.

Hell, at the comic con, I made my way to their booth just to get 2 pins.
