Guild Wars 2 1.0

Guild Wars 2 is a fantasy MMO game which starts out incredibly, it looks great it throws you straight in to the action although a tutorial on the battle controls would have been helpful before this but as it looks so great and has a fantastic soundtrack with it also I can forgive this, you are thrown straight in to the action and have to battle some centaurs and then you are sent to defend a castle with more mythical creatures descending upon it if you are victorious in the battle you are then treated to a cut scene and the game proper begins and suddenly things change totally next thing you are working on a farm or helping a man get craw fish out of a river and it seemed kind of a waste of my warrior talents.

Although these parts are here for you to learn more skills that will be valuable later in the game but after such a dramatic start you can’t help but yearn for more action.

Guild Wars 2 looks great and seems to have a huge community, there are lots of options as to the design of your character and you can even choose your back story and which kind of people or creatures you have descended from.

Like a kind of medieval second life but with much more violence there is plenty to enjoy about Guild Wars and of course you can also chat to the other real life people who are playing on the same server as you and perhaps make some new friends (or enemies).

Oh and you can dance to entertain cows!
