at it again

In an attempt to drum up some interest, in what I feel is an amazing game, I will add another entry to this blog. I also fully intend on submitting my review for the site. The game that I will discuss here is called Guild Wars: Nightfall. First let me say that I am the Guild Leader for the official Guild Wars site Clan. We are know as the Guild Wars Gurus. This is my second attempt at running a GW clan, and I must say that it has become a wonderful home to myself, and many members. It is always discussed in our clan how Guild Wars is never given any credit, especially since we seem to be stuck in the shadow of World of Warcraft. There always seems to be alot of fanboy type zeal between the players of each respective game. I have come to decide that you either love one or the other, and dont care for the other. I will say that I personally feel that WoW is given more attention, and even a preferential treatment here on the site. We have a rather large Guild Wars clan, and we dont have anything near to what the WoW players have. Christ, give us our own Guild Page. (I know, clan pages are coming!!) The recent front page article regarding Guild Wars is a perfect example of the type of discussion that seems to permeate every time sometime tries to compare the two. Hell, here is an article giving Guild Wars its due respect for hitting 3 million gamers, and someone has to bring up WoW. WE KNOW ITS NOT WoW!! Yes, we know WoW players like to craft weapons, and have a cooking skill. We understand that. We are not trying to change your mind. We are simply trying to get people to understand that there is a game out there that offers you a solid gaming experience, in a MMO type game, that doesnt require a monthly fee!!! Hell, I know gamers that will rush out and buy a console title on release day. Play it straight for 2 weeks, and then trade it in on another release title, only to repeat the process. If you spent the necessary 50 clams to buy Guild Wars, and played it for 2 months, you'd have gotten more than your moneys worth. Especially considering the new releases that Anet has issued. The Factions expansion introduced a bunch of new gameplay upgrades, and the Nightfall expansion has increased the content even more. They havent added some of the features that the WoW players like to brag about. But this is not WoW. Again, I'm only trying to inform people that may be looking for a different gaming experience. If your cruising thru your local game store, and happen to see Guild Wars on the shelf, maybe pick it up. Its an excellent game. An added bonus, there is a great 2old Guild Wars clan that is always looking for new people to have a great time with. Think about it!!!
