All WoW should take into consideration also.

1. The graphics are better than WoW becuase there human based and not cartoonie based!

2. Like siad above events every weekend! (Yay events!)

3. No more grinding! You actually have to have brains!

4. The game wont make you go crazy with the repetitivness!

5. PvP rules! Best PvP out there and im not just saying that becuase this is my favorit game. Im saying this becuase ive tried out both WoW and GW!

I might of agreed about the PvP thing pre burning blade expansion but not anymore.

The new honor system and arena are fantastic.  The arena is instant ques and extremly competive with a ladder ranking system, its very well done.  You compete with no just your server but your entire battle group, and all the top arena teams are very skilled Ive had some incredible games and really enjoying the arena system.

GW and WoW aren't the only MMOs around, you know?

And WoW's PvP is crap, so who really cares if GW's PvP is better than WoW's? You should try playing other games before saying those crappy comments.

I know it's your opinion but here is mine.  I thought the game shouldn't even be classified as an MMO.  Everything is instanced except the towns where you meet up with people.  PVP is boring.  The graphics suck.  I seen some free asian point/click crap that has better graphics.  I give it a thumbs down.  Should be in a different section than MMO.

While you are of course entitled to your opinion I really disagree about the "GW shouldn't be here" whining. If that was the case then a lot of other titles would have to be booted as well and the site would need to be renamed into "Everquest&clones.com"

Eh, I played both and didn't really get hooked to either.

GW:  Not much skill PVP-wise.  Find the hot trend of the month, copy/paste, win.  Played from release to Factions.  Did the whole Factions preview thing, didn't see enough new stuff, never looked back.

WoW:  It was fun for a while, but grew tiresome(oh look, I'm apparently afraid of that gnome again). 

Both are fine games, but I play way too much I guess and run out of content quickly.  I'm currently playing Vanguard, I'm not sure why, but I am.  Basically waiting for Warhammer, maybe AoC, but probably War.

Just my two cents.

I tried GW after few years of playing WoW. Didnt like it at all. Maybe GW has better graphics, but WoW is more fun to play

Some people find all instanced combat a benefit to a MMO, to others it is a hassle. It's pure individual preference. I've never found the PVP to be boring, when done in moderation. Due to the "flavor of the month" builds that seem to pass through, playing for long stretches does seem to yield the same matchups. I admit to enjoying WSG in WoW over GW's PvP, although I have no idea why.

Comparing WoW's and GW's graphics is a uselss endeavor as they are completely different styles. It is, once again, a matter of personal preference. I do find both games to be excessively lacking in character customization, but at least GW allows armor dying.

MMO = Massively Multiplayer Online. GW has thousands of players online at the same time, able to interact with each other in towns. Diablo 2, while having thousands of players online at the same time, could not directly interact in that fashion (they had to start a game to do so). The instanced towns of GW are comparable to EQ2s in a way., and are a way to conserve your system's resources really.
