In 20 years i will have a Playstation 9, one of those gravity cars from Wipeout to run over small annoying chav-like children in, a Druganov SVD arm attachment, a hamster, a pogo-stick, a plasma tv and mp3 player implanted in my breasts, a robot-monkey slave, and a Terminator T1000 home protection service...

but amongst all that futuristic heaven when im a cyborg, im sure that in the small part of me that will be human, i will always remember GW.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

What expectations are facts for our future that we WANT to forget about something in our present?
If anything might bring us embarrassment in remembering it, then why the hell we doing it now?

For myself, I will remember it fondly.
This game has taught me a lot about games.

Zinger is such a fruitcake... And no I don't plan on explaining why I think my opinion is "blahblahblah".

Guild Wars is my current staple online game. I don't play many others if at all right now, so.. Yes, I think I'll remember which online game I played while in college.

Oh yeah, and it will be something thought as GOOD. You can suck my back if you think I'm gonna pay monthly fees and worry about getting the best possible result from my money. I was there in my last online game, and it's really a load of bull.

I thought I should also add that the last game I played - I did so, for 5 years.

I still remember Tetris. I still play Pong as well.

Will GW be around in 20 years? pfft
Will the earth be around in 20 years is the more pressing question.

GW will leave its mark on the industry as being an innovator. Many games are copying many of the same mechanics and business models. GW is also taking things from other games to make up for some weaknesses.

Its just one of those games that after it everything is changed.

Guild Wars is not the innovator. Games with major online capabilities and no monthly fee have been used for many, many years. Diablo II, anyone? (No, I am not a Blizzard fanboy. It's a fair example).

Guild Wars is just an oppertunist in that regard; Guild Wars was released when the popularity of MMOs surged, in a time where most MMOs had monthly fees. It's the best known game of this time with that pricing model, but it's not the first.
