Welcome to GW!

There's a Sticky thread in the Q & A part of the forums entitled "Player on a budget..." That'll give you the pros and cons of beginning your GW experience with each of the campaigns. Most people will recommend the original (AKA -Prophecies) for people just starting out (I do), with Nightfall being not far behind. Virtually no one suggests starting out with factions.

Then I don't believe there's any other way to get it right now, without ordering/shipped/stores.

Don't trust anyone thats just selling you the serial..........

I would strongly suggest that you NOT purchase a key from any player/person. I would only by from legit stores and things....don't buy it at a pawn shop or anything. Usually those keys are already used...and or banned etc.

Try looking through some of the online stores...do a search for buy guild wars and see what comes up. Alot of places don't take paypal...but you maybe able to find a place that does....

They are currently looking into possibly accepting Paypal in the near future, but nothing has been made final about this, to my knowledge. Your best bet would be to find a way to a store selling hard copies.

I would strongly suggest starting with Prophecies. Best (although underdeveloped) story, gentlest learning curve, and overall best game of the three.

I don't know if they take PayPal, but if you're on a serious budget and your parents don't mind you ordering from an online store, Fry's has the best price right now on all 3 games.

Prophecies: $19.99
Factions and Nightfall: $29.99
Pre-Order GW:EN: $29.99

Frys.com is an excellent and reliable company. I've ordered many things from them without any problems whatsoever.

Good luck and welcome to the GW community!

Have you ordered any french fries from them? They say it's "Frys".com, you should have to order fries like first thing before anything else.

I would get Prophecies first, then Nightfall, then Factions.

I suggest buying from E-bay, as long as its a reputable seller and the game is unused, you shuld be able to get it quite cheap, and obviously use paypal on it.

I have used paypal for numerous purchases on ebay and got a few of the pre release discs from it.

Good luck

Hey, welcome to GW!
like jammerpa said, I'd go with fry's and ask your parents if they can credit card purchase it for you.(if frys doesn't take pp).
Anyways I would probably go with Prophecies, although Nightfall gives you heroes & inscribable weapons. You'll also be able to earn gold a bit easier in NF. But prophecies has the best intro into the game. (slower, more paced)

In my opinion you should start with Prophecies. Factions is paced very fast, and Nightfall has elements which you best understand when you have beaten factions and prophecies.

(Like, 2 certain people from Prophs and Factions make a certain return in NF)

Definately buy the original. Its the longest, it has very varied environments compared to the other campaigns and IMO, it has a nice story. The tutorial area is also awesome.

I'd learn to use English first, because when your 'Z' key breaks you're going to be buggered!

Sams club has all three chapters for < $50.00 USD. I saw the bundle at my local Sams for $49.99 just a week ago. Another guild mate reported his Sams had reduced theirs down to $30.00 USD. They were originally $99.99 for all three chapters and have been reduced (probably lack of sales).
