    So I just snagged a copy of guild wars online for 8 bucks shipped to my door. It'll be here in a week or so but I was wondering if anyone here still played or not so I'd have a few friends to begin with :D

    It looked pretty good just not worth the money back then nor is it worth 20$ now which seems to be the going rate. But for 8 bucks I can give it a try. Should I look into getting the other expansions and add ons? If so, do you guys know of any store that sells them at a good price (20$ or less, college tuition ftl)?

    PS: IMO wait for GW2 instead of buying add ons

    Wait....$100? Did you buy all the expansion packs and leveled all your characters to 20? And how do you calculate the worth of your GW account anyways? :p

    I was a firecaster mage and loved it :D sooo uber powered. I hate the game now because I soent 3 months trying to get people to help me but no one would. The NPC's are utter rubbish and no-one would help me progress to the next area cos all the mosters were too tough for me to kill with the NPC's.

    Not really a fan of the game or the community now.

    I got the game off of ebay, someone played it and got tired of it so I bought it. I get a lot of my games that way like CoD:4, Rainbow Six Vegas 1, and a few ds games. I think i got vegas for 7 bucks, CoD for 20, and a very rare ds game imported form japan for 35$. I just refuse to pay 50$ for a computer game ever again after the disappointment that hellgate london was.
