its rly funny to see some ppl rly comparing wow with mcdonalds .... AS if there was another mmorpg that has quality ! for god sake we , if wow was mcdonald than that means eq or vanguard r entrocote steak with wine from bordeaux ... LOL . stop kiddin ur self ppl . wow toke every that wasnt good enough to be popular and made it good and popular ..

 

btw !!! before u flame me lol i stopped playing wow since 2 years and more even and i played most of the mmorpgs till i got bored and didnt find something i like to play . and im not a baby here lol .

 

if u dont like wow , fair enough but PLEASE Qstop comparing it with stupid examples . :)

 

Here's another stupid example: 

WoW is like a brand new Honda Civic -- simple, cheap, but reliable

 

SWG and Vanguard are like Ferraris........with broken windows, flat tires, and no gas.

 

And AoC is like...a concept car

 

I was thinking that would be more like Darkfall, i.e. a concept car that will never be sold.

To me, AoC is more like a electric car--lots of unrealized potential and frequent refueling (loading).

Hate to tell you, but since the publisher news, its not popular to bash Darkfall these days, considering, you know... it actually exists.

total myth i know a lot of people that play wow in thier 30s-40s .i m not sure why people here hate it so much . i like mmos in general and try most at some point or another . most mmos have something interesting to offer but warcraft is still the best of the bunch . unfortunatly i think the wow community leaves something to be desired . pve servers tend to be more mature and friendly . i tend to alternate it with lord of the rings and the odd couple of weeks on city of heroes . it all really depends what you want in a game . wow is very lighthearted . it d be nice to see a darker more serious fantasy rpg . i thought conan might fill those shoes but unfortunatly its bugged to hell in its current form .

just got everquest 2 and final fantasy online at the bargain price of 3 pounds each(about 5 dollars) looking forward to trying them

Nothing wrong with Vanguard... logic fails.

It's under SoE's wing, that's all the fail a game needs.

Like Duke Nukem Forever?

If WoW is the biggest MMO out there, shouldn't it get higher ranking?...

makes me question the entire list... kinda unfair for games that perhaps should have been higher ranked

WOW has very high rating on reviews. Just take a look on metacritcis.com. You can use any  random website (particularly this one) as an indication of the quality of a game.

Simply look at reg.users on the WOW forums even their official forum doesn't have 10million reg. forum-users. But only a small % of their actual fanbase/players. So this could mean that on a public forums like this not dedicated towards 1 game will even have a smaller % of it's fanbase then the official forums have.

I believed WOW generates the most income in any game. Grand Theft Auto was the number 1 or 2 hit in selling but WOW continues such income every month. I think Diablo 3 will be another new record when the game released. 

Can we just answer this question straight. The rankings are very tight and little points like graphics or community may escalate one mmo minorly over another. This is why WoW maybe isn't in the top 5(though it may actually be joint equal). Additionally, if we're honest while WoW won't be number one by different people's opinions it should be in the top 5.

WoW is by no means the best MMORPG out there. Just has the most subs.

Yes it has most subs, and so it would have more voters.

Someone playing WoW most of the time would they rate their game lower then some game they don't play?
In addition to that question would anyone really play a game they feel is worse then another one?

It really don't have to be the "best" just because it is rated high anyway.

The numbers are manipulated.
There, I said it.
