Great new MMORPG that you don't have to pay to play online. Got it today, you just buy a key and download it, and its only 17mb and it looks amazing. As you progress through the game its constantly downloading the rest of the game in the background so you don't have to wait.

www.guildwars.com

And heres an ingame screen to get you enticed-

If you liked Diablo 2, you'll like this. Even runs on my laptop that doesn't have a GFX card!

yeah guild wars is the shiot, im currently lvl 17, but i keep dying because im so low on health

actually its alot like diablo 2, but in 3D :biggrin: , one of the coolest things about it is that you can choose a second profession, such as starting as a necromancer, and then you can train to become an elementalist.

Heh, I tried getting you all to play this months ago with little success! Look me up in-game - I have the highly original name of 'Adam H' :smile:

I won't be around until Sunday though as i'm visiting friends this weekend.

I'm impressed at how much depth the game has - just when you think you've reached the end, you discover a whole new area to explore.

I have been trying to hate this game, but all you people posting good things about it is making it real hard.

The game looks good, and at least you didnt call it a MMORPG, because its not really. More like a 3D Diablo game.. and you called it that.. so I thank you for getting it right.

I may get this game if for no other reason than I know my wife would enjoy it, and I will just play when she doesn't.

We did the whole World of Warcraft thing and burnt out on it in just a few weeks. We made 60 rather quick in that game and got bored with it.

Guild Wars is cool for women too, cus you can choose male or female, so if she likes being a female then your sorted... Very cool game.
