Depends on what you want aspect of the game you want to play.
If you simply want PvP, then there's the new PvP Access Kit, which can allow you to play all the professions and get some skill unlocks.
For PvE, the three standalone chapters (Prophecies, Factions, and Nightfall) are your options. They can be played in any order. I think there's an article on the main guru site about which chapter to buy. Here it is: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/content...buy-id2249.php

Jumping Is Uselss
If you want to start at the very beginning get Guild Wars: Prophecies. Factions and Nightfall are the 2nd and 3rd chapters of the series.

If you come back or not well whatever but here is a simple tip
Ask in the buddy key thread for trial code and try the game and see if your compy can run it AND you like the game.
