World of Warcraft. Every one has heard of it. Even non-gamers. I mean, it's very difficult to go anywhere without hearing someone talking about it.
This game very well may be the King of all MMORPG's. And how could it not be? With the captivating lore, to the extensive landscapes stretching on for miles, down to the tiny gnomes. I played this game because everyone talked so highly of it, and coming from EQ, I was extremely skeptical. But with all of my friends getting sucked into the game, I decided to give it a shot. I started out with the Ten day trial, and by the end of the first day, I was not even close to being ready to turn the game off. By the end of the second day, I went out and bought the game. I couldn't help myself. I was hooked. The PvP is incredible, somewhat annoying when you get people who kill you outside of major cities, and sit there waiting for you to respawn. But it motivates you to do the same when you get to a higher level. The Instance aspect of the game is brilliant, challenging the best of player's and testing the bindings of your group as a whole. The best gear of the game is found in these dungeons. Getting slaughtered time and time again by a much higher level member of the opposite faction? Battlegrounds is group PvP at it's finest, matching you to a level group of the opposite faction. (bracket systems. 10-19, 20-29, etc.) Quests are plentiful with new ones being added daily. You could be going on a simple "go get me my broom" or a "bring me the head of the Archmage Arugal." Blizzard is constantly patching issues in the game to discourage cheating and unfair advantages to each class and race, with every Tuesday being "Patch Day" and causing servers to go down typically for a few hours. In conclusion, this game is the biggest game to have ever hit the shelves and there's no reason why anyone couldn't enjoy it's captivating features.
What's great about it: Blizzard support, MMORPG. Constantly something to do.
What's not so great: Girlfriend's seem to REALLY dislike the game. haha.

No matter how fun a game is if u have to pay monthly I wouldnt buy it. I am a loyal blizzard customer but lately i been rethinking my feelings of Blizzard. If they start making all their future games pay monthly im afriad I will have to switch my taste in games. Or instead go find myself a real social life instead of being drained by Blizzard. Sorry Blizzard but if you make starcraft 2 or diablo 3 a pay monthly game i will have to get an X box 360. Hope a blizzard employee reads this and tells the CEO or something. (I threw away my copy of world of warcraft just to let you all know and am not paying monthly!)
What's great about it: Very fun addicting game
What's not so great: You have TO PAY MONTHLY! Blizzard dont drain your Loyal Fans anymore please.

I used to play this game and I loved it, honestly. But it wasn't mine, my friend was letting me share his account (I can't afford to pay $100's a year!). And we both really loved playing it! We loved it so much that we became obsessed and spend all of our time playing it. Then he did one thing that at first I hated but now I'm glad he did. He bought the Wrath of the Litch King expansion pack online, but my computer didn't have it. So the next time I tried logging in, there was a message that said I needed the expansion to play this game. I was not about to spend $60 dollars on one simple game! So I never ended up playing it again. At first I was suffering from "MMORPG game-withdrawal." I couldn't sleep, couldn't concentrate in school... But I eventually got over it. So don't listen to those comments that say that it's an amazing game and that they'd recommend it to everyone. They're just obsessed. Another story that really happened to someone in China (it really is true!). A Chinese kid became obsessed with this game, so obsessed that his entire room was themed with WoW products. He never slept, never ate, and barely noticed when he got sick. He believed that when you die and go to Heaven, you can do whatever you want and be whatever you want, so one night, he was so obsessed that he killed himself to be with the WoW gods...True story.
What's great about it: Amazing graphics. Really fun. Updated daily.
What's not so great: Everything else: Addicting. Obsessive. Take up a lot of space. Expensive online fees.

This game is one of the best I've played. I love the shapeshifting ability in the game. The only big thing I'm not a fan of is the player vs. player combat. I feel like it's a bit inflexible. But the game as a whole is so well done.

I tried to play this game but I couldn't take my self there. The fear of NEEEDING to speanding 180$ a year +the price of the game was just scary. I have friends who won't do anything but play this game it is honestly disturbing. One of them won't even talk to me anymore because I said I don't wanna play it. It's rediculous!!
