None of these.

 

The next great MMORPG will have the following:

 

The Lore of Warhammer/Warcraft

The Movement system of world of warcraft/fps games (eg Responsive not heavy)

the graphics of Guild wars with bigger/better environments

The game should not be sides, everybody should be able to clan/friend everybody else.  And everybody should be able to KILL anybody else too. 

The polish level should be of NCsoft quality.

The support system should be better then NCsoft and Blizzard combined.

When one game mixes all of these together,  and presents them in a manner of guildwars/world of warcraft,  we will have an MMORPG that i would pay $30/month to play.

 

Untill that day we will be stepping slowly towards teh ultimate MMORPG.

I really anticipate GW 2 basically , but since that's not gonna be out any time soon , my vote goes to Aion it looks and feels so cool, and original ideas too. And also I love the Final Fantasy setting it seems to be running with . So yes , Aion.

Now that its almost the release of AoC i dont think either it can become the great game we all expect, but it will have some popularity for the first months like all new games have.

I think Aion is probably gonna be the next great mmo.  One of the reasons I am saying that now is that its starting to get more attention by players outside the mmosite community.  I think there was a poll like this last year and Aion got alot of whats Aion? and like a 5% agree.  Another reason is that there is actual substance to the claims NCSoft has been making.  They haven't been going about making empty promises.  They always show thats its in game before saying its there.  Such as Flying, its unique character growth system, the large amount of PVE content, and its faction war system.  Also its beautiful graphics and well made animations which are typically good in Korean MMOs.  Also I think people are slowly learning that the old Korean Grind just isn't possible when the only way to level up is by completing certain content.

Age of Conan I don't think will be great even though its been hyped up so much and has probably the largest popularity at the moment.  As we know if you can't deliver on the hype its gonna be a let down, and Funcom really didn't let up on the hype.  If we look back at the other Funcom releases can we really expect this company to deliver on Age of Conan?  Anarchy Online is a fine game now, but on release...  Also it seems to suffer ailements that the community is beginning to be sick of, and that typically have done poorly in the past.  Like boasting about using cutting edge technology but needing a cutting edge machine.  Its use of end-game raiding unless you are HARDCORE PVP.  Also boasting about graphics, but the graphics ending up like muddied undetailed crap (EQ2-Vanguard)

AoC needs a good pc, many people need and upgrade and thats a disadvantage for sure.

If warhammer will have even bigger requirements it will be very difficult for many players.....

I do believe WAR and AOC will rock. They get alot of subscribers and active players.

I voted AoC,I would have liked to have voted TCoS but I see it falling away somewhat,Last year and the start of this year TCoS was the 1 for me but after some bad excuses and more delay's I will wait and see also for it to be the next big thing it has missed it's window in my opinion and also niether the devs or publisher's want to get the word out about it.

AoC seem's to have what I am looking for and I think alot of player's feel the same so that alone will hold it in good stead,at least for the release then it must deliever.

AGE OF CONAN   for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   Can't wait, im getting all excited and i might just piss myself 

AoC, without a doubt.

People in general are sorely underestimating the sheer awesomeness of this game.
