The Lord of the Rings Online
Anybody played the beta or joining the upcoming open beta? I'll definitely be purchasing when it's out, just wanted to see how many fellow sharky members are considering the same? The graphics are pretty amazing, though I'll probably want to upgrade my 6800 GT soon... not that I have the money for that yet. sigh.
http://www.lotro.com/index.php?page_id=94 - is the Open Beta signup link (I believe) and there's also a link on that page to preorder, and when the game is released it's only 9.99 a month, which I'll definitely be doing. Tough finding MMO's out there now for that cheap.

the LOTRO runs well and the graphics are not so bad!
and at low lvl, players always go solo, once higher , you pretty much need a party.
like many other MMO,we need pay more attention to it.

I'm tempted to try this, but last time I got hooked on an MMO I didn't see daylight for 2 months.

It went live 3 days ago so my guess is that you are not getting into Beta

lol...
I was thinking about playing this, but after having player Asheron's Call and Dungeons and Dragons online for years (and I really feel like turbine drops the ball on older releases whenever they launch a new product), so I'm not so sure I want to invest any more time or effort into the company.

I'm having an absolute blast with LOTRO.
I pre-ordered the game, then took advantage of the one-time $200 price for lifetime membership. (IE: I'll never have to pay a monthly fee). My highest level "Hero" charcter is 13. I've been spending all of my time as a Monster. I'm having a blast with that... and PvP hasn't even started yet.

From what I see on the website there's only 1 faction... see that is what makes games like WoW just freaking amazing. The war that wages between the Alliance and the Horde. The PVP is what hooks you into games like that. I bought Guild Wars a couple of months ago, installed it, played it for about an hour, max 1.5 hours and then I uninstalled it.
That's my view on MMOs, whatever suits you though, I would rather have 2 factions or even 3 in such a world.
EDIT: I was just going through the classes and races... the champion has fervor? Ain't that the same as the warrior in WoW? Rage? Don't know if other games already have this too, but it's pretty annoying to see the same thing in a supposedly very different game.

Historically MMO’s with PvP got brushed by the wayside or adapted to minimize the negative effects of PvP like pushing it into arenas and instances. BTW Guild Wars has one of the top PvP systems out there, it’s arena PvP which isn’t for everyone, but in practice most WoW PvP is arena style as well.

If you took away all the things WoW borrowed for Everquest and Warhammer you wouldn’t have much of a game left .
