Should I get it?

I have been thinking about getting this game to. I think I might do it, because I hear its better than WoW from some people. I also really liked UO so I guess it kinda is in the same catagory from what I hear.

Also, is there anything else i need to get if i buy it? Like how D2 has the expansion but you also need the normal D2 discs before you can install expansion.

Nope, just buy the game and your set to play.

Alternatively you can download the game client from the Guild Wars site and buy an account key from them.

Nice, I think im about to hop in my car and go get it now. I hope there are no monthly fees (dunno if somone already said there are or not, didnt read the entire thread).
Will it play ok with
- 2.20 GHZ Penntium 4
- 256 RAM
- 15 GIG HD space empty
My questioning is mainly with the RAM, I plan on upgrading to 512 or 1 Gig. Will it be ok with 256 for a week or two?

No monthly fees.

Have you got a graphics card?

I think it needs a 32mb graphics card thingy.

Other than that, you should be able to play it fine.

Edit:

Taken from the GW site: What are the system requirements for Guild Wars? Minimum System Specs: Windows® XP/2000/ME/98 Intel Pentium® III 800 Mhz or equivalent 256 MB RAM CD-ROM Drive 2 GB Available HDD Space ATI Radeon 8500 or GeForce 3 or 4 MX Series Video Card with 32MB of VRAM 16-bit Sound Card Internet connection Keyboard and mouse Recommended System Specs: Windows® XP/2000/ME/98 Intel Pentium® III 1GHz or equivalent 512 MB RAM CD-ROM Drive 2 GB Available HDD Space ATI Radeon 9000 or GeForce 4 Ti Series Video Card with 64MB of VRAM 16-bit Sound Card Internet connection Keyboard and mouse http://www.guildwars.com/faq/default.html#support

I have a stock card, what my Dell came with.

You should be able to play it fine then.

Excellent. I look forward to gaming after I take a shower, and come back from running a few errands. Feel free to join me in my shower, anyone is welcome.

no i didnt "suck" at this game, i had the good items, good gear (fissure armor, woot woot), im saying if you go out in ascalon and let them hack on you for like 1min chance's are youll be dead, of course you can go around killing everything and not die. i was referring to the fact that you cant tank worth shit like a high lvl should be able to.

It runs alot slower than my likeing, im going to go get two 512 mb RAM cards tomorrow. Ive been planning to upgrade to one gig for a while. Just havnt got the motivation to spend the money untill now.
