I've acquired Guild Wars Prophecies with the expansion of Eye of the North, which prepares you for Guild Wars 2! More races, more classes, more action, more fun! Basically, Guild Wars is a MUST have game!
An amazing Christmas Present to any gamer out there! I guarantee satisfaction! If you like dungeons and fast-paced, easy!
If you don't find a party of real people, NPCs that are actually strong and helpful can join your party and you can quest out in dungeons and zones to beat many guild wars gold  and accomplish quests! The fast-paced action is amazing! Killing is fast and efficient, but strategy is needed at a point! Also, your HP and MP is restored gradually even when fighting!
No need for potions to restore that! It restores on its own guild wars gold ! Plus, NPCs can help you by healing and so on while you're questing in dungeons, zones, etc. *PvP: Note, there are Guild vs. Guild, Player vs. Player and even dungeon instances! AT ANY TIME!
There is PvP even at level 1!
You can choose to make a PvP only Character or a Role playing one! Guild Wars deserves 10000000.../10! PLAY IT! IT'S A MUST!
Guild wars gets super confusing and boring after a while of playing. I quit because I didn't know how to get any guild wars gold or actually have some fun with it. Plus, there's pretty much no communitty at all, I didn't even talk to a single person in through the whole month i was playing it, for a $30 dollar game thats ridiculous. I would only buy this game if someone i knew played this game, but just to learn it by yourself, no chance.
Well, one thing for certain for those WoW vs GW peeps, u cant compare the two games. Yes, they are both RPGs, but besides that, they have a totally different feel. WoW of course is the better game, even though it costs $15 guild wars ecto  a month (with the money bliz makes, they have no need at all to do $15 a month, but ah well... greedy bastards -_-). But GW is DEFINETLY a great game! And YES, its a F2PMMO!!!!! Yes, you must pay some cash to buy the CD"s to install it, but there ISN"T a MONTHLY FEE, therefore making it a F2PMMO!!!!! Now, onto the ratings!
Gameplay: 9/10 Very simple once you get the hang of it. WASD Keys to move or click to move, double click enemies or click + spacebar to attack enemies or pick up loot. Use 1-8 keys for skills and health/guild wars ecto (mana for WoW-players), etc. One thing i did NOT like was the fact u could only use 8 skills at a time on the bar and could not swap them out while out in explorable areas. I mean, at least include the 9,0,-, and = keys for skills too! You get so many and are limited to 8... not cool. One thing i loved was that Cities and the outside world were instanced. Cities is where u would make a team and get together, and then when u went gw gold  u were in your OWN INSTANCED WORLD, so no ksing faggot nightelves ^_^. Eh, there arnt nightelves... wow joke.
Sound/Music: 10/10 Great sound effects, when you swung your gw ecto
, it sounded like a swinging blade! When you shot a blazing meteor at an enemy, it sound like a blazing meteor being thrown at an enemy! Put simply, the sound effects did what they were supposed to do. Music didn"t interest me until the EotN expansion. Then it had some kick ass orchestral music that definetly sounded professional, kicking WoW"s ass in the music area.
