I just saw this this morning:
http://www.nzgamer.com/hub-pc-reviews-354

Looks like the world's first review, according to them. Couldn't see anything on GameRankings.

Kinda redundant I guess since we're playing and loving it but still worth a read. I'd probably have scored it slightly lower at about 9.3-9.5.

Their description of the new classes is rather rash and brazen, by my standards. Overpowered warrior? Easier to play? Sure, they deal a crapload of damage (especially with my dervi's preorder weapons), but they take damage HARD and their builds are still hard to create/maintain due to occaisional lack of the mobs that you need to get your AoE-Bonuses to start up. Just like the assassins and ritualists in factions? No real purpose? I was enjoying the review up until that point. Bah. Otherwise, I liked it a lot. Interesting viewpoint. Kind of bland though.

I think he is looking at the average score for reader reviews.

The scores for GW as of right now are,

Prophecies:

GS: 9.2
Users:9.2

Factions:

GS:8.5
Users:9.1

Nightfall:
GS: ?
Users:9.4

IF the users are right, the nf would be better. Cant really trust them though.

Pretty weird that Guild Wars is in the MMORPG.COM list even it is not 100% MMORPG. That is because it is heavily instanced?

Quote:

Guild Wars site:

Is Guild Wars an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game)?

Rather than labeling Guild Wars an MMORPG, we prefer to call it a CORPG (Competitive Online Role-Playing Game). Guild Wars was designed from the ground up to create the best possible competitive role-playing experience.

I finished the game last night, and I'm there with that 9.6. Completely blown away by this game (glitches aside).
