Please recommend me a MMORPG

Looking to start playing a MMORPG but unsure which one to go for, was thinking of StarWars Glalaxies, Planetside, everquest or others that people recommend.

World of Warcraft will be coming out soon, would wait for that if i were you.

What kind do you want mate? And I'd definatly wait for the newer ones.

If you are going to spend a lot of time playing it then I suggest EQ2 its very in depth and the more time you put in the greater it gets. In fact it can take over your life

WoW is great for the casual gamer. You can play a few hours a week and still progress at a steady rate. Also if this is your first MMORPG then WoW might be good for you. Its simple and will get to grips with it very quickly.

Planetside is again good for the casual gamer. But its important you get with an outfit of a regular squad to benefit out of it the most really

CoH is fun to play. Nothing serious really just fun. Get a good group and maybe some mates on and have a blast. Again not really hardcore.

Prob more aimed at casual gamer - say 10-15 hours a week.

Post back if you need a cd key, you'll need a subscriber to send them an e mail they then send you the key.

EQ2 is out in november - after playing some of the beta round my mates I would honestly say wait for that

Andy100 · 26 Sep 2004 at 20:29

Wait a couple of months then play either WoW or EQ2 if you want a fantasy mmorpg.

They pretty much take all the good points of the first round of mmorpg's and make them better.

EVE-Online
Or
Planetside

Both brillant MMORPG's and worth the monthly payment

I wouldn't call Planetside a MMORPG though, more of a MMOFPS

You don't need a player to get you a key. You can get it as easily yourself I think.

Also,

I'm playing FFIX atm. I played Asheron's Call for years.

I'm waiting for WOW and EQ2 quite a bit!!!

Yeah i got a free trial key from the web site. Just had a quick hour late last night, looks just what i was after - basically a much much more in depth Freelancer type game

The trial offer for SWG appears to have ended.
