Im going to wait to see how the EQ2 vs WoW thing turns out to decide which one to play actually. Currently, EQ2 is my cup of tea but maybe WoW will surprise me.

EQ2 just looks so... cheesy
WoW is cartoonish but its designed that way.. I just don't think EQ will appear as well.

Although, given the originals EQ appearance versus addiction level.. it certainly is irrelevant in long term meaning

Is Sony going for the "we're goign to get you EVERY way possible" method like they do with the original EQ?
I mean you have to pay for the expansion packs when they come out PLUS you have to pay for the monthly fees.
That IMO Is ludicrous!
I mean if you're going to charge us every month for the game, at LEAST give us free expansions etc.

No mmorpg to date has not charged for expansion packs. Unless blizzard has said other wise, its pretty unlikely they will develop huge amounts of new content for WoW, and make no money off the software.

EQ looks pretty good to me, and lots of other people. And apparently no system, no matter how much money you spend on todays top of the line equipment, will run EQ at its highest settings. I like WoW's style but its not something that pushes itself over EQ2's visuals. But for me its not about visuals, its about the different style of gameplay they both have. They really arent all that different, but EQ2 is my preference. Its set in the world I know, has all the nostalga I will enjoy from the first game. Its deep and immersive.

And anyways, I am not so sure I will get EQ2 over WoW, because a couple of my friends wont be able to buld a system capable of playing it. But they can build a system to play WoW. I have seen all the vids on gamespot on WoW, and it looks amazing, and in the end if its better then EQ2, I wont hesitate to sign up for it. EQ2 has no PVP at launch, which IMO is ludicrous! heh.
