(- After learning the game and building up your first character, you may choose to test your skills in head-to-head competition or guild warfare. The game is designed to reward player skill and teamwork, not time spent playing, so you won't need to spend hundreds of hours leveling up your character to compete.
- The game includes integrated support for guilds, with guild banners and halls, chat rooms and forums. Guilds can challenge other guilds to battle, compete for control of key parts of the world, and be ranked on a worldwide ladder.
- ArenaNet's unique streaming technology forever eliminates the concept of patching a game. You don't have to wait a month for the next big patch to experience new content. Instead, the game constantly and intelligently streams new content to your computer in the background while you play. The world can change continually. This allows us to build a much more dynamic game world than any that has existed before.
- Your party always has its own unique copy of the quest map, so camping, kill-stealing, and long lines to complete quests are all things of the past. Within a quest you have unprecedented freedom and power to manipulate the world around you: your magic can build bridges and open up new pathways, or it can burn down forests and tear the ground asunder.
Guild Wars takes the best elements of today's massively multiplayer online games and combines them with a new mission-based design that eliminates the tedium of those games. You can meet new friends in towns or outposts, form a party, and then go tackle a quest together.
You don't have to spend countless hours on a leveling treadmill to get to the interesting parts of the game, because combat is designed to be strategically interesting and challenging right from the beginning. You don't have to spend hours running around the world to prepare for a quest, because Guild Wars allows you to instantly travel to the beginning of any quest that you've previously unlocked. You'll never spend days playing only to discover that choices you made early on have left you with a permanently uncompetitive character, because the unique skill system in Guild Wars allows infinite experimentation but doesn't allow bad decisions to ruin a character. And you'll never meet new players only to discover that you can't play with them or compete against them because their characters are on a different server than yours; in Guild Wars, all characters live in one seamless world.

Great first mmorpg to buy

I think this game is the best mmorpg to start with as it's free, insteresting story lines, hardly any grinding, plents of places to explore/farm and plenty of addiotnal features to get. If u get into this game it has a lifespan of about 700-800 hours of gameplay. The one major bad point about this game is the highets level u can reach is only 20 which means it limits how good the armour is compared to say lv15 and how good the weapons are say compared to lv15. On a good note there is a lot of teamwork involved and the community is very large and towns with in the game are always active. This game is aweosme when u first get it but after a lot of hous of gameplay staying at level 20 does get boring but it's a good price. The graphics on this game mmorpg are the smoothest and probably the best i've seen from an mmorpg. Also this original game in my opinion is better than any of the expansions for the game.
One word...WOW!!!

A great game with huge maps, varied professions and amazing graphics. I would recommend a fast internet connection to gain the full experience from this game. At £15 you cannot go wrong, if you haven't already bought it, you are missing out on an awesome gaming experience.
great game
