While I has still an active player and forum user on Star War Galaxies, I defended the game against the players touting the virtures of the new WOW and using the forum as a recruitment center for the new game.
For a long time the Moderaters of the forum let it slid off their back and then they started on cracking down on the displeased players trying to make others quit SWG for WoW. Like the rest of the problems at SWG, it was to little to later and a very large group of veteran play left to WoW .

There is something really irritating about MMOG, it's the month fee.. i'm plying WoW but i didn't bought it, a friend is sharing is account with me for free.. I don't wan't to pay 13€ a month to play this game! i would pay 5€, perhaps 7.. but noone should accept to pay 13€ plus the game itself! (45€)... it's really unacceptable, peoples are getting used with it because "everybody is doing the same". I'm really waiting for Guild War and i hope it will change things in the MMO world, i want cheapest game!

As they rightfully should have. SWG was a horrible abortion of a video game.

I just wonder if you'll need a P-P-P-Powerbook to play the MMMMOG.

Nothing pisses off players of one MMOG greater than players from another MMOG trying to recruit subscribers away. That forum drama you describe was played out across a thousand thousand guild- and server-specific forums in EQ, SWG and other games.

WOW may be the largest online PC game but Halo 2 dwarfs it. (from Dec. http://www.gamershell.com/news/18894.html) I'm not sure of the simultaneous online user average, but I'm sure it's above 500,000.

I'm just as big a fan of PC games and this is no "consoles are better than PC's" arguement. I just think that all gaming platforms should be included when things like this are considered.

Xbox Live has over 1.4 million subscribers according to a quick Google search. The question is how many of those users (a) own Halo (I'd say almost all of 'em!) and (b) play Halo with Xbox live.

We don't know for sure, but I'm willing to bet that it beats WoW.

I played xbox live for about 2 months when i bought halo. Halo 2 has long sicne been aborted for:
1.) Half-Life 2
then
2.) WoW

I still play UT 2004, CS:S, and HL2 deathmatch occasionally, but WoW is where I spend 95% of my gaming time now. If the servers were running at 99% uptime with no problems, i'd be happy to pay the monthyl fee. I'm a little disgruntled due to long authentication times, login server problems, and lag.

The whole idea of the monthly fee is for maintenance mostly, isn't it? It is plain inexcusable, the problems that World of Warcraft has been having. They had a beta for how many months? They should have been able to iron out these problems way before now. I will not give my hard-earned money to a company that does not know how to spend it.
