Is it possible to get a factions trial?

Hey there guys, Having just got back into the game myself, i am wondering if there is an official way for my friend to try factions. I feel factions is probably the quickest and best way to start him, but it seems prophecies is the only one availible....

If the free trial available on the Guild Wars website is Prophecies only (I don't know, haven't tried it) then your only other option would be to use a trial/buddy key that came with Boxed versions of Guild Wars Factions or Nightfall, I guess...

Why would Factions be the quickest and best way to get someone interested in GW?

This site still provides Factions trial keys:

because it keeps the flow of rewards steady ( quick leveling) and has a more interesting beginning game than nightfall does.

Righto. Hope you can get your friend hooked.

yea me too...Would you suggest prophecies? I consider nightfall out of the question because i did it myself over the past two days or so and found it difficult to enjoy.

For comparison of the three campaigns, you still can't beat this thread
