Runescape is nothing compared to us. But Id agree (WoW vs GW) we both are the top of what we try to do.

because nine maybe-random peoples opinions makes something fact o.O

anyways, they're really two different games. both have their pros and cons. save the arguments on it for guildwars2 since it will be more WoW-style

Is it wrong of me to have wanted WoW to win despite having never played it?
Must be all the good things that GW has turned into!

That article stinks of worse bias than a Republican Convention.

Comment: Costs so much. The game itself is so expensive, but the monthly fee is just outrageous! It might be good, but it is not worth it. If you play this game for 1 year, you could probably buy 6 new games.
And yet, do you actually get a year of playtime out of 6 games?

Comment: Too expensive. The level cap is level 60 only? Many of my friends have played this and got dissapointed. You character looks the same as everyone else and it's so easy to level that the challenge is just gone. If I had a choice between GW or WoW, I would choose GW.
Uhh...what? WoW is "too easy to level?" In a competition between WoW and GUILD WARS?!

Comment: Great game with a PvP focus. I don't get how people get bored of it so easily. Sure, a lvl 20 limit is bad but Im still stuffed with quests after a week and the game is still great. Some people should finish it before judging it.
Ironic, as all the WoW bashers never finished WoW.

Comment: In my opinion, this is probably the best MMORPG ever. It is much cheaper than WoW, even if you buy the chapters/expansions every 6 months. The missions are really fun and the graphics are wicked. If you ever get rejected from a group just use henchmen/heroes for PvE. PvP is also really fun and you can PvP straight ahead if you want to. The lvl cap (20) is there for a reason. ArenaNet knows what they are doing. This game requires more skill than time spent.

Comment: Great game! I have all the expansions. A good thing is that the max level is 20 so players don't focus on power-leveling. The graphics are better than WoW and it has no monthly fees. You can go with a PvE character or just focus on PvP. PvP is my favorite part of this game because it is always different.
Also quoted for irony and naivete.

There's a lot more I could say, but that article is so tainted with bias it's sickening (why does GW has 5 comments posted about it and WoW only 4?). None of the commentors appear to have played both games, which is inappropriate when comparing both games. If a website does such a comparison, they would need players who have played both WoW and GW to its limits (such as myself).

It's also an old article, as the level cap in WoW has been 70 for a long time. It seems like a late-2006 article, and Guild Wars has definately lost points since then.

For PvE WoW wins no contest.... based on items, content, replayability, and overall things to do, um just about everything that makes PvE, WoW wins... GW did have the best PvP but...

This thread really fails, Anyone who try to compare two rather different games should find something else do.

However, IMO even if WoW is considered "Better", the fact it has a monthly fee makes it not worth playing. CSS might be worth palying if it had a fee, but that's all, no other game with a fee is really worth it.
