Finalist Voting Opens

We have narrowed the list to a few nominees in each category. Now it's your turn to vote.

By Dana Massey on December 05, 2006

Finalists for Graphics: EverQuest II, EVE Online and World of WarCraft

This category is about more than just polygons. When selecting from this drop-down menu of every MMO in commercial service, keep in mind animation, art direction and technical quality of the graphics themselves. Also, please try not to consider graphical upgrades or changes on the horizon, but only the graphics as they exist today.

Last year, EVE Online took home the bacon and after the preliminary voting, they're back to defend it. World of Warcarft and EverQuest II are all that stand between EVE and a repeat. Honorable mention goes out to Lineage II and Guild Wars, who both narrowly missed the final stage.

›	EverQuest II 23.4%
›	World of Warcraft 15.2%
›	EVE Online 61.4%

The Finalists

	*EverQuest II, Sony Online Entertainment EverQuest II* joins the field again this year with its technically solid graphics. Overshadowed by its launch-brother World of Warcraft, SOE pushed the envelope on this product and achieved a high degree of technical excellence. The question is, does the art direction do the technical direction justice?
	*EVE Online, CCP Games EVE Online* took home last year's hardware taking home over half the votes. Now, they're a year older and even CCP Games admitted at their recent fan fest that the graphics badly needed updating. The new screenshots from the DX9 client due out next year look impressive, but how do the graphics as they stand today stack up against the rest of the field?
	*World of Warcraft, Blizzard Entertainment World of Warcraft* is the polar opposite of EverQuest II. It has impeccable art direction, but low-tech graphics. It's an eternal debate of style vs. substance, with some preferring to push their graphics cards to the limits, while others just want something pleasing to the eye.
