    Best MMO yet.

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 19, 2004 | 17 out of 17 found this Guild Wars review helpful

    Pros: No monthly fee, balanced characters, stunning artwork

    Cons: Release was delayed to early 2005

    I realize that Guild Wars is not yet available for purchase. But I have played the game (during the May E3 for Everyone event) and I remain active as a member of the community that awaits its much-anticipated release late this winter or early next sp...ring. Throughout my experience with the game, I found it continually enjoyable, entertaining, and absorbing. It draws you in completely, and when you're playing, you feel like you are part of the world, not just a gamer playing a game, but a warrior, or a ranger, or a spellcaster, fighting evil and testing your skills against other fighters in the realm. The experience is completely immersive.The E3 For Everyone event was an alpha-level event, meaning that the game was still in its early stages of playable development. It still lacked a large portion of what will be in the released version. Nonetheless its content was more than enough to keep me occupied for the duration of the event (3 full days).The PvP (player-versus-player) was by far the best multiplayer combat I've ever experienced, surpassed and first-person shooters or any other action/RPG games I've played before. And the co-operative missions were engaging, following the storyline of an impending raid by the fur-covered anthromorphic Charr upon the walls of the wasteland region of Ascalon.The characters are creative and different. THere are six professions: Ranger, Warrior, Necromancer, Elementalist, Mesmer, and Monk. Each has many combinations of skills that make for dozens of ways to play the game.I could go on forever. If you like roleplaying games at all, I suggest you buy this game. Read more Less

    Awsome!!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 19, 2004 | 8 out of 8 found this Guild Wars review helpful

    Pros: Best graphics ive ever seen, great sound. ULTRA realistic great overall game

    Cons: Are you kidding me?

    if there were ever a game i would break my leg for, its this. this game has unsurpassable graphics, TONS of missions to keep you busy, and no grinding lvls until your character is at its peak. the music is awsome, no little things that stand out, s...o it wont get on your nerves, and very catchy, classical/
    dramatic/
    exciting music. awsome pvp mode. so much to keep you busy, because being number one in the world doesnt come easy. more strategy than hack and slash. a very well made character at a low lvl with low gear could take down a peak lvl noob anyday. all around superb game, everything you would ever want from a game.

    Great Value

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 21, 2005 | 3 out of 3 found this Guild Wars review helpful

    Pros: no monthly fee, great gameplay

    Cons: sontimes quests get a little tidious

    This game is great for the casual or hardcore gamer, since you dont have to pay a monthly fee you dont have to worry about getting your moneys woth out of it. guild wars has great player vs. player combat and decent player vs. enviroment experiences.... One of my favorite features of the game is the ability to create a PvP only charater already at max level, rather than having to go through the whole process of levling up to try out a character build.

    Guild Wars

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 19, 2006 | 1 out of 1 found this Guild Wars review helpful

    Pros: Everything

    Cons: Nothing

    In this game you are able to pick from a couple charectors, Warrior(W), Necromancer(N),Ranger(R), Mesmer(M), Elementalist(E), and Monk (Mo). After you pick your charector, desighn s/he, and pick name then you start playing. After you complete acouple... extra missions you are able to pick your second class. Your second class doesnt really do much put give you that classes spells. There is main missions which get you farther in the game and farther through the story. Even though it has a long story it is still online(only). Have Fun. Read more Less

    one of the best MMORPG

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 29, 2006 | 1 out of 1 found this Guild Wars review helpful

    Pros: gorgeous graphics,innovative gameplay,very addictive

    Cons: maybe not suit to those who prefer click&slash all day.

    Guild Wars is a Massive Multi-Player Online Role Playing Game or MMORPG. It is one of the few that you don’t have to pay each month for, which is very convenient as it is one of the greatest games of all time. Graphics 10/10 These are some of the g...reatest graphics I have ever seen! The cut-scenes and even the game play graphics always look great. In fact they are done so well that I had to turn the graphical quality down to get rid of some minor lag. You can see every individual blade of grass, which seems unnecessary but who cares! When you walk in the water it ripples perfectly which is beautiful! The weapons, armor, and shields have extraordinary detail. Sound & Music 8/10 Now, I normally like the music in a game, but to date the music has been too low in volume. But what I heard really does set the mood for what you are going for. Gameplay 10/10 You start off the game by picking which mode you want to do. There are two different modes. Story Mode and PvP Mode. Story mode basically takes you into the game and you learn everything about Guild Wars, find items, kill monsters, level your character, etc The PvP Mode puts you right into the PvP portion of the game. You basically make your character right there and jump right into the game. The point of PvP Mode is strictly PvP. I personally haven't made a character for this yet, so I can't speak much for what you can actually do outside of PvP. PvE is basically story mode, and you can still use your character in PvP arenas. However, if you make a PvP character it starts off at the max level 20, and can only PvP. Both modes are fun and PvP is great for when you get bored of PvE. You can also join or make guilds, thus the name guild wars, and guilds can compete amongst each other. Every guild has their own emblem, or cape each emblem is different from another guilds and it can have great detail, or be simple. Overall 10/10 This is a great game and it is very difficult to write everything about it. You should indefinitely buy it. In fact, why are you still reading this!? Go buy it now!!!!! It’s not like you have to pay each month. It is just one payment and you are good to go. You get 4 characters to play with and there is so much to do. If your computer doesn’t meet the system requirements for the game then it is a good reason to upgrade your computer. There is no reason not to buy this unless you hate RPGs. Even then I think you would like it. There is just so much to do! Read more Less

    Best game for 2005!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Nov 22, 2005 | 1 out of 1 found this Guild Wars review helpful

    Pros: The awsome artwork and graphics make this one of the beast games this year!!!

    Cons: You can only see other people inside of towns (exceptions for party/guild members) which is a blessing inside a curse.

    An awsome game that has most great gamers drooling. It requires no monthly fee and you don't have to have a incredable computer to play it!!! (Want to get you kids somethin cool?)

    Why I like this game

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 20, 2007

    Pros: Stunning graphics, awesome storyline, and you don't get bored easily

    Cons: none that I can think of

    For my 19th birthday my boyfriend bought me Guild Wars because it was something that him and his friends enjoyed doing. I was a little reluctant to try it because I don't play MMORPGs.....until now!!! When I installed it onto my laptop and began ...playing, I was hooked!!! The only MMORPG that i have played besides Guild Wars was Last Chaos, and after playing this, i'm NEVER going back! The graphics are awesome, the game has a good storyline, and I haven't been bored with it yet. I would recommend this game to both the serious and casual gamer. Read more Less

    I Love It

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 23, 2006

    Pros: No monthly fee, balanced characters, stunning artwork

    Cons: None

    I beta tested this game way back when, and loved it then. Now, I love it even more. There are lots of quests for you to do, creatures to fight, and people to meet. Best of all, its free to play, unlike most other MMORPG's.
