Guild Wars for Windows

Pros: great graphics, streaming engine, skill system, unique multiplayer-based gameplay
Cons: team-based gameplay requires adjustment, skill system may not be for everyone.

Currently Guild Wars (GW) is one of the most anticipated games of 2005. Basically GW promises to revolutionize the gaming world in one simple way: It is so far the only Masively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (MMORPG) without a monthly fee ...

Pros: Fairly easy to remember controls, adjustable camera angles, updates keep it interesting
Cons: Online play, fast connection necessary

I was browsing at best buy at the new games and spotted this on the shelf. From the pictures on the box the graphics looked pretty impressive and the fact of the free online play was also very attractive (I just hope it continues to be free online play ...

Pros: Semi-unique playstyle, incredible graphics and sound, no monthly fee
Cons: Minimal replayability, major AI/pathing issues, sometimes frustrating difficulty, content updates nonexistant, lacking basic features

Guild Wars is a good game desperately trying to struggle past a terrible implementation. In Guild Wars, you play the standard RPG hero chosen to save the world from some unspeakable evil. In this particular installment, you'll struggle first against ...

Pros: Free to play!
Will run on dialup internet

Cons: Very unbalanced
Some graphical chipsets crash often

In the Beginning... If there is one thing I cannot stand, it's a game that you not only have to purchase, but then have to pay for the server use as well. Final Fantasy 11, World of Warcraft and many others have wandered down this path, and are ...

Pros: Unique gameplay, No monthly fee, some beautiful environments
Cons: Can sometimes feel Hack n' Slashish, No REALLY long battles/quests

Guild Wars is one of those games that doesn't immediately grab you. Its the type of game where you constantly want to play for 10 more minutes. The story accomplishes what many games do not, it makes you feel like you only have a small way to go to ...

Pros: -an MMORPG that doesn't require full time attention -excellent gameplay -no subscription costs
Cons: -Underdeveloped economic systems -can be 'lonely' -'trigger happy' con system

Ok, so I’ve been playing Guild Wars for about a week now, and so far all that I can say about it is that it’s interesting. This is neither a ringing endorsement or a panning of the game, I guess that makes me a ‘fence-sitter’. This is a revolutionary ...

Pros: -Playable in short bursts
-Beautiful graphics
-Open-ended skill system
-Extremely replayable
-Strategically challenging
Cons: -Clunky interface
-Not very flashy
-Terrible dialogue
-Tutorial overload!

What You Get:  Guild Wars is a contemporary of smash hit massively-multiplayer on-line roleplaying game (MMORPG) World of Warcraft, but in playstyle, Guild Wars ...

Pros: Great graphics, very expandable, PvP oriented
Cons: Read review

This game has great graphics and storyline, however it's mainly PvP oriented and after completing the game, all that is left to do is PvP (Player vs Player). With all the people who lack the dedication of a team PvP makes it very difficult and ...

Pros: Good graphics, good gameplay algorithm, no daylight robbery. Fun for casual gamers.
Cons: A highly obsessive-compulsive game. We recommend responsible playing and self-moderation.

...because if you lose, or even if you win, the Devil gets your soul. I'm not kidding, either. What we have here is the budget-conscious equivalent to World of Warcraft - the first game is just a one-time hit on your bankbook - usually around ...

Pros: No monthly fees, Making online friends, teamwork aspect, beautiful realistic graphics
Cons: May take over your life, maybe too graphic heavy for low spec. machines

I am somewhat of a Guild Wars veteran, as I've been playing for years so I hope I can provide you with a valuable opinion of this game. I bought the game when it first came out, on the recommendation of a friend, and I was really glad that I did. ...

Pros: Graphics- Very fast, Impressive Loading Time- Quickest for caliber
Cons: MMORPG!?- Not really, you only see people in town!

The first thing I noticed when I installed this game was how fast and smooth it loaded, ran, minimized, and shut down. It was incredibly fast, especially for the level of graphic presentation it has. I don't have a slow computer by any means, but Lineage ...

Pros: Price! NO Monthly fees! Great art and music. Rewards for growing characters. Holiday events!
Cons: Requires interaction. Limited to 20 levels per character. Easily spend lots of time on it.

Did you like D&D but can't find anybody to play? Do you have random hours that you are free but hard to find a decent group of people to play with? Do you like 'adventure/quest' games but don't like the idea of shelling out bucks each month for a ...

Pros: Excellent Graphics; "Pick up and Play"; No monthly fees; Not a 'true' MMO
Cons: Quests can become repetitive; Not a 'true' MMO

MMO (Massively Multi-player Online) games have taken a huge chunk of the market and an even bigger chunk of people's lives. Pick Up and Play (and Quit) This is the kind of MMO where you can pick up and play. The traditional time requirements to find ...

Pros: As good as NWN only online, FREE!!
Cons: Targeting system, small inventory cap

I have looked into trying the Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games(MMORPG)ever since they first started coming out. Three things turned me away from them and back to my solo play, off-line RPG's like Diablo, Neverwinter Nights, Baldur's Gate ...

Pros: Great game, great Graphics, great setup
Cons: little glitchy, make sure you have the required or recommend graphics card

I had tried the sample trials of Guild Wars before it hit the market and I simply loved it. I have been playing another RPG that was very low quality so I didn't have high expectations for Guild Wars but boy was I wrong! The game is set in the land of ...
