I have been waiting for one of these... swinging the Wiimote to jab, hack, slash and all around butcher monsters and other players would be a blast, not to mention using it for firing bows and aiming spells at others. Whenever Nintendo actually starts giving other countries Wiis and someone (BIOWARE!!!) gets on the ball and makes a good game for it, it could really own the streets.

1. Guild Wars, been playing since Beta Weekend.

I was late to the MMO scene (CURSE YOU DIALUP!!!) so I never played to old school amazing UO.... And since there are few MMOs out that I really like (though several I want to try...) I won't bother ranking others. But when GW2 and Darkfall come out, we shall see, it will be so hard to choose.

It is pretty good on prices, I have been looking at getting one of the AMDs for about 1.5k with 4gb ram and a 512mb video card, so it is pretty good.

That is a pretty hilarious article.

But I must say I deeply resent the Darkfall comment.... (but I completely understand it....

And as for the WoW vote, I agree to some degree, but it is a good to make a game low end machines can play. It is also intellegent to make it a unique style like that so that it wont "go out of style" it doesn't get outdated like realistic graphics, because it isn't meant to be realistic.

Also, wasn't the ruining of UO worse than NGE???

it's poorly written because it does sound like a high schooler wrote it.  you know those posts on the forums at wow.com where everything is a comparison to some other game they just played or movie they just saw without even a modicum of knowledge or experience with the genre.

"Here's a plot ripped straight from the pages of The Lord of the Rings! The Dwarves and Asura dug too deep"

first of all that's not a "plot" Lord of the Rings isn't about dwarves digging into Moria, it's just something that happened in the course of the story.   and of course it's not as if  the idea of dwarves living in massive chambers under mountains hasn't been a stable of fantasy literature for 100 years...  "OMG THERE ripping of WOW lol.  OMG LOTR keke.  WOW lol my tank should be like 300 "

And let's just forget that in the BOOK the dwarves are not the ones who release Balrog, it's something peter jackson added for the movies... but let's just call the movie the book... if you've seen the movie it's the same thing... you can just say you read the book

His comments on the graphics are just as LOL hilarious.  Was there a new engine for this expansion no one knows about?  He's complaining the graphics look the same as prior publishes of GW... "but but but I sat here a hole year!  I want new stuffs" NM that technologically there's only so much LOGICALLY you can do with teh same engine, he's been sitting here at my computer and the graffix are meh.

"This one time I saw Hellgate, and it was cool.  And this one time I saw a video of CONAN on youtube and that looked awesome I wish this game could be like that.  this sucks"

That's about what this review read like...

 

^QFT.

I didn't even touch on the graphics, that post is completely dead on.

We must all be "hardcore" fans of GW here. Because this review is terrible.

KInda like PC Gamer (who is usually on the money), but that review just sounded like a whiney baby who had a bad stretch of luck.

GWEN is my favorite, right after Proph. It adds heroes for anyone without NF, and more for those with. Many of these heroes actually participate in the story. I know the story is rather stereotypical, I still enjoyed it. (where are my SlyvaSylvari???)

There is TONS of new content, form dungeons to titles. PvE skills are kinda cool, but either way there is a TON of new armor, i think maybe more than any full expansion.

It is hard, but I am seriously getting tired of people crying about hard games. Either suck it up and learn to get better or suck it up and admit you suck. that is life, either you adapt(and GW is one of the few MMOs that allow you to that) or you move on to something else.

I think the main problem with the GWEN reviews is that most of the reviews are done by people who don't actually know the game that well, or at least don't play it regularly. thats just my opinion.
