Product reviews...
Not many games I would give full marks to, Guild Wars however is what I would quite honestly call the best Online Game available to this day.
Being one of the only games that you can just buy and then be free to play as you see fit (no monthly payments or content only available to premium members) it definitly is worth buying, on top of that it has rather stunning graphics and environments to play in along with a great storyline and hoards of quests to keep you busy.
The gameplay side of Guild Wars is also top notch, simple and easy to pick up combat system with the ability to get really in depth with the skills you decide to use. The game world is generated seperately for every player and their party (no more putting up with people stealing your monsters or being abnoxious little fruitcakes). There are Five classes to choose from: Ranger, Warrior, Monk, Elementalist (mage) and Necromancer, each of them distinctly different to play as.
Guild Wars is a shining example of how online games should be, well and truely worth the measly $10 that it is nowadays.
