What game to buy?

[Kram4sites]

Im getting bored of the same old games over and over...

Mainly I have been playing Counterstrike Source, but I feel I have outplayed it to where I only enjoy playing for 30 mins or less, and I feel that i am in the top 5% of players in the game.

So.... Im looking to broaden my horizons and get into a new game, I have been looking into the 2 new RPG's WoW and Eq2 what should I get? what are your opinions of these 2 titles, or any other new games that have recently been released?

If you know of any good quality games that have recently been released please feel free to post them.... and all the information you have in regards to them.

Thanks,

Im sure this thread will benefit many people.

WoW is a great game and there are a couple of us from the forums that have a guild on one of the servers, feel free to join us if youd like :) dont really know much about EQ2 but ask away about WoW

Well if you decide to play everquest 2, the 15 bucks you pay a month will also allow you to play star wars galaxies, and all the other station games. You have to buy the games first of course though.

NovaLogic's Joint Operations :) 150 person multiplayer servers - is a more real to life army FPS but is awsome! is all i have to say - i love Novalogic's games.

Hey Scotto tell me about WoW I need convincing... what would i expect if i started playing? etc... thanks...

I have narrowed my search to WoW or Eq2... but which to get?

CONVINCE ME!: WoW>Eq2? or Eq2>WoW

Well WoW is a lot more solo friendly than EQ2 from I have heard and is a good game for someone to play casually. There is a lot of thing that have yet to be implemented like an honor system for pvp (which would discourage high lvl people from killing lower level people) and the PvP battlegrounds which sound like a blast. Some might say the game gets boring after awhile but you need to find a group of people to play with to make things interesting for instance our OCG guild does almost daily raids on Alliance towns, we often get together and do quests and the higher levels even help the lower level ppl catch up.
If I had to compare it to any other game id its like diablo 2, leveling up pretty much consists of getting quests fro NPC's in towns which are usually kill X number of mobs or deliver this note to some one (but most MMO's are like this) And there are instanced quests which are only for your party and are usually longer and involve more team work. Ill see if i can find more links to give you a better example and explanation :p
