World of Warcraft

I like WoW, I really do, but playing today WoW is like re-watching SW episode 1 or so - the original was so much better experience despite all the technical inovations. The graphics are outdated, even though I admit I like the cartoonish style. On the other side, you don't really need a great PC to play WoW decently, which is good for your pockets. WoW is a good game, but since I quit I have had no real desire to go back. After reaching level 80 I found it really does not offer you anything if you are not able to do heavy raiding.

WoW is a pretty much easy experience from the beginning. It's very easy to start playing and level your characters, so even non-gamers can start playing right away and have fun.That said, it's an hard game to master. The most competitive stuff, like the hardcore mode end raids, are truly unforgiving in that matter.The game isn't perfectly balanced, the starting of a new char without any help can be a bit overwhelming, especially when it comes to some gear choice and talents. It should not be hard though, to find extensive and detailed help on how to develop your character, both in WoW forums or in fan-sites.

WoW doesn't have all i want in an mmo but it's better than a lot of the mmo's out there. Most important thing is that there are tons of people playing it and a huge active community. The community in WoW, is generally not good. But when a game has almost more subscribers alone than the entire competition, you'd think there are plenty more morons there. Get a free trial, and never forget that friends > all. The game becomes a lot less fun when you're "alone".
