Videogamepeople.com says "Guild Wars 2 is finally launched! It has been in development for over 5 years, and with that came an avalanche of hype. Strikingly enough, it is not a mere upgrade from version 1.0 to 2.0. It is not just a matter that (in game) 250 years have passed, new races came up and that there is a technological advance. No this new game is somewhat of a total revolution from the first release, which also brings in some cool concepts for MMORPG’s. These concepts are such as to make the game more fun, whatever you chose to play as, and with whoever you are."

Who else but me posts GW2 updates 😎 One of the few companies I support, for over 20yrs.
I played it a little years ago. It was fun but I had children after I started playing and gave it up so my wife wouldn’t hate me. I got to 50 and then hung it up
Arenanet is doing smthn wrong with marketing, I never once seen an ad for a gw2 expansion and always hear it like this once an expac is already released. Not that I would play it cause I'm a gw1 purist haha
New elite specializations and a fresh adventure on the magical and never-before-seen island of Castora - The sixth expansion launches on October 28!
Not that I disagree with what's said in the article (since GW2 is an awesome experience), but rushing to be the first (which it isn't anyways) review on an MMO is just kinda sad and doesn't show a whole lot of journalistic integrity.
Please don't review these kind of games until you have at least beaten it, maxed your level and played a few solid weeks of WvWvW and sPvP. That's something you do in month[s], not 72 hours. This is akin to reviewing a book based on the synopsis, first few chapters and cover.
Hi Giru017. I totally agree with you but as seen from previous articles of these guys you can see that the game was in closed and open beta for quite some time now and there was a lot of time to have a good picture of the whole experience of the game.
This, gave the guys ample time to go through the game and give the right verdict. I am not saying that you are wrong, but looking at the Beta previews they posted, it's a bit justified for the review they posted.
