World of Warcraft

Best game I've tried so far, following behind Ragnarok online.
The amount of fun you can have playing this game compared to other MMORPGs is outstanding! You don't need to grind in the middle of anywhere just to gain levels, you level up on doing quests, of which there is way too many in my opinion so you never run out. You don't have to worry about being to lucky to drop some good equip, because to get it all you need to do is put some effort in putting together a group and going to an instance or even simply do quests which in themselves provide great rewards (mostly an item and money with experience on top of that)

I love the amount of work Blizzard put into each class, they all differ so greatly and have their own strengths and weaknesses, making the game mostly balanced - you don't have to worry about being underpowered playing your own class :o It requires skill to master each class, not just standing there spamming skills and hoping the enemy will die, no, you need some kind of sequence to your movement to be effective, if I phrased myself right.

Battlegrounds are also a great way to spend your time, you also get great items from this. I'm only level 46 right now so I might not know, but I'm sure all the level 70s enjoy raiding and the social aspects of this game.

I play world of warcraft for years and I will never stop playing I have 4 level,85 now and they own, world of warcraft can't be stopped cause no game would be better than this game! You need to eat drink repair dungeons quests armor mounts 1 big world love it

Nothing can compete to World of Warcraft. I can confidently say that WoW is the best online game of all time, and still is the best online game of all time. Some other MMOs are more in depth and have certain aspects in them than WoW, but WoW is the most fun video game I have played in my entire life. I Been playing since BETA and even on and off at some times. Lets say you get bored and stop playing, there's without a doubt in my mind you will come back to the game after thinking about it a month later. It's tough to put your finger on why WoW is so amazingly fun, but I will always play WoW for the rest of its existence, of course with breaks. I can go on and on about THE game itself, (and not just saying my opinion on how amazing the game is)but if you haven't played this game YOU have to play it! It's the most popular game of all time, I mean everyone heard of WoW. There's a reason why 10s of millions of players actively play this game.

FFXI is okay. It has a top rating on this site only because the WoW fans are too busy playing. I have been diehard as far as a FF fan but for this day and age, the games graphics look horrible compared to WoW. I uninstalled it. I could have improved it visually but that involved messing with the registry. And No one should have to go through all that. They need to stop making expansions and just launch a completely new one. Until then, WoW is better.

This game lacks the overall story offered by FFXI but finishes on top by having far better gameplay and combat variety, many games lack this, combat is what you will be doing for 90% of you time on any level based game. WoW also does not offer one way to level up as it is the case with most of the MMORPS out there.

I am starting off with the free up to level 20 thing and I have never in all my days of game play have played a game like this. It has everything and those who are in love with Runescape and SRO don't know what a true mmorpg. Runescape has crappy graphics lots of botters not enough locations and you need money all the time so what do you do either buy money from other webs or bot on trees or something. Plus everyone are jerks they scam you constantly. SRO is good graphics cool moves but way to hard to level, too many bots and pointless game you just kill the same monsters in every map with different colors and the quests are either collect this or kill this no action no fun. WOW all I have to say about that game is "WOW".

The game title says it all. WORLD of Warcraft. It really is a whole world of its own and that's why people are consumed in it. It is an alternative reality with a lot of options and freedom of the real world. With professions, eating, socializing, shopping, and tasks, it has most of what we do on a regular basis. Except the difference is that it's more fun to do it on WoW because it's more fantasy based that we can't do in real life. Killing monsters, exploring dungeons, traveling worlds, leveling up, respawning, etc.
WoW is a world away from reality that entices you for hours. Very fun and very addicting. No other MMORPG can touch WoW at this time.

Though a pay to play game, but if you're interested in MMOs this game deserves each penny you pay
- Balanced in such unbelievable way
- Variety of characters and specialization
- All players pay the same, so unlike the "free" games if you pay more you improve your characters with no limit of payment.. so what you play is what you get not what you pay
- It has the definition of "gaming" in which you can feel the challenge as well as the achievements
- Variety and different kinds of quests, dungeons, raids, proffessions which makes your exploration of the game never ends.. also in such a simple way

SIMPLY THE PERFECT GAME

OK, I don't know what's with this MMORPG, but it hooks me in, and it kinda pisses me off when someone else needs the computer. There is 14 races- Allience: Human, Dwarf, Gnome, Night Elf, Drenai and Worgan, Horde: Troll, Orc, Tauren, Blood Elf, Undead and Goblin- and 10 classes- Rogue, Warrior, Paladin, Shaman, Priest, Mage, DK (Death Knight) Hunter and Druid. And this game is kinda addicting...

There is barely any flaws in this game. The quests kind of are the same and there needs to be more classes, but this game is an AMAZING MMORPG.

Like EmceeBlood said, Try it!

Simply put the mest MMO out there. It is mostly because in most of the free MMO's such as Silkroad, maplestory and others all your doing is fighting. In WoW you have professions so you will be making your armor and weapons and most of all what separates WoW from every other game is RAIDING! WoW is know for Raiding with groups of 40+ in a guild, no other free game could possibly match WoW's Gameplay. The graphics may be a bit cartoony but the gameplay, quests, and community are incredible. There is a reason why it is game of the year and that over 9 million people play.

i would have to say if ur gunna buy the game buy it at amazon it is cheaper if you need some help just ask anyone around you mostly everyone is friendly and this is a great game the cost is more than most mmorpg but it is worth every cent have a go if you have any troubles u can talk directly to in-game support (takes about 15-30 mins) if you do end up getting it there is a second expansion the burning crusade it is not required to play the game although it offers some good features like new islands races and flying mounts only costs about 30-40$

World of Warcraft (Also known as WoW) is a very good game. It's graphics are very good, it runs very smoothly, considering it's file size, which is VERY HIGH at 3GB+. The players in this game are normally mature, nice, and very fun. This game is definitely not for people with slow computers, or computers with low memory, because, as I said before, this game's file is a size of 3GB+. Even with that, I would highly recommend this game to anyone who wants to meet new people, make new friends, and, all together, have hours and hours of fun.

Was the best when burning crusade was their, but after the level cap of lvl 85 now going to 90 I just think more people are going to quit. But I guess the choice to stop XP in battle grounds and stay at a level you wish to keeps just about all people happy, but until they fix the dmg and healing that all characters have, might take a long time to figure out it takes skill not an OP class to beat someone. I have played other games and found Runes Of Magic probably the closest game to wow, but always comes back to this game =)

Lots of people have been saying warcraft isn't the top mmorpg that is extremely false. World of Warcraft lets users explore through a huge map that takes an extremely long time for you to have seen everything there (I'd say a year). One of the best things I think there is about world of warcraft is you can have more than one player on your account and you can choose a variety of races and avatars. I am a committed player to world of warcraft and believe it is by far the #1 mmorpg.

Okay people who think there is a better MMO they are just wrong. You're lying to yourself. WoW just has features like none other. Come on guys, you are honestly just voting for the game you play, but not the one that is the best. I've played the top 10 games that are on this list. There are different genres of MMO's, please take that in mind. Such as MMO's like WoW and runescape, and MMO's like City of Heroes. Anyways out of fantasy MMO's WoW is the best, that's fact.

Wow is a great game far better then most but blizzard tends to support people who suck at games and patch after patch continue to make the game easier just to keep them playing, even starting to see this in cataclysm but the best game of all time is Everquest most people don't like it cause you need skill and SOE will only make it harder never easier they don't care if you play, SOE just continues to make a game for hardcore rpg players hope to see EQ3 for PS3 that would be badass

World of Warcraft is, by far, the most deep and complete game of all-time. I might not say the greatest, but it surely is the one that has the most gameplay time a game has to offer, considering the uncountable patches and additions the Blizzard stuff keeps updating WoW with. Love it or hate it, this is without a doubt the biggest MMO game around and may be the most addicting game in the world... well, that's actually a downside, but you know what I mean.

Generally accepted as the measurement of what an MMO should be. I'm not saying that it's perfect but Blizzard has done things to this title that very few has ever achieved (without going the way of F2P). I'm sure the day will come that WoW will just be part of Video Game history with another MMO taking its place but for now kudos to the game designers and team that continues to develop WoW (8 years running - subscription based).

World of Warcraft is just the most fun game to me. I'm not biased it's just that it has never gotten bored to me. I love the arena pvp's and tons of endgame content. Dungeons aren't repetitive to me because there is so many and by the time I'm lv85 and make a new character and go to dungeons, it's like memory lane. WoW is by far the best. Blizzard is the best company for PC, yes better then steam.

best game ever played. if you belive me I am infected with this games so so good in burning crusade I have 3 lvl 70 in lich king I have 1 level 80 in cataclysm I have level 85 ( not full gs but he is good) if you wont to play it take mage and when you are lvl.55 take death knight. dk-s are good, or you can take warlock he is good too. :D

and you don't need to play wow on a real server you can play on molten wow server.

I love this game, have been playing nonstop for years. I'm in level 83, but then my laptop stopped working. I bought a new one which didn't have windows 8, and I tried to download it from funcom. But when I finally got it done, they said I didn't have directx 11 and I couldn't play anymore. But this game is still the best, you can't find any game better than this, that's for sure!

Best MMORPG you will play, its more then just leveling, from levels 1-70 you only experiances 10% of the features this game has to offer. At level 70 there are endless things to do. Many styles of PvP and PvE I never dreamed possible till i played this game. Both 70 PvP and PvE recuire skill, dedication and patience which before i never have seen so wonderfully put together in a game.

ok this game has stolen my life the only reason FFXI is above it is simply because most warcraft players are PLAYING right now and will be for the next 90% of there lives why do u think it holds so many awards and records not only does it last forever and take a lot of skill to get to 70 (max lvl) that actual fun of the game doesnt start until 70although lvlign is pretty damn fun to

WoW is an extreamly fun game because it is simple but yet not simple. This is a game for anyone not just hardcore gamers. But this is why ffxi is #1 as i have played both of these games for a very long time. In ffxi you feel better when you accomplish something... and in WoW you do feel good but... its just not the same. Both are great in their own ways

Real value for money, great gameplay and unlimited fun! How that scam, entropia universe is even on the list is beyond me! The only people who make money from this thing are a few loss leaders and mindark themselves! They get greedier with each version update and the players keep falling for it! The penny does actually, finally seem to be dropping lately though.
