MMO's


Well, we have a plethora of MMORPG's either now out or on the horizon, but which one to play - it's a question that has plagued man for, well...about 20 minutes.

On the one hand we have the current titles out at the moment, namely DAoC, WoW which are seasoned pro's in the MMO genre and then there's Vanguard, which has been out about 3 weeks and Warhammer Online that is due in quarter three 2007.

Each have their own pro's and con's, but Vanguard seems to be offering a few unique elements including extremely expansive lands, stunning graphics and a diplomacy profession, but limited RvR (Realm vs Realm). I am however leaning towards Warhammer, which boasts a mass of classes to choose from including my beloved Orc and full scale seige PvP, which sounds immence.

"RvR combat takes place on three fronts where ancient foes wage an unending war – Dwarfs vs. Greenskins, High Elf vs. Dark Elf, and Empire vs. Chaos." - W.A.R official site.

I know I'm going to end up at least giving Vanguard a go as there are many a month ahead before Warhammer Online is released unfortunately. Nonetheless I really can't wait, it is shaping up to be something spectacular.
